As newly divorced single dad Cleveland Brown drives away from Quahog and Family Guy to start his new life, Stewie Griffin asks incredulously, "He's getting his own show?" We're as surprised as Stewie. We're still awaiting his spinoff. But until then, if you like Family Guy, then Cleveland rocks. In what may be some kind of meta tomfoolery on cocreator Seth MacFarlane's part, Cleveland inhabits a parallel, albeit somewhat diminished, comic universe. Cleveland (voiced by Mike Henry), while not as imbecilic as Peter Griffin, is as deficient a husband and father. His new wife Donna (Sanaa Lathan), while not as hot as Lois, is the family anchor ("I was born with my dial set to 8," she states, "Life cranked it up to 10"). His infant stepson, "really cool rascal" Rallo (Henry again), is not as megalomaniacal as Stewie, but he's just as age-inappropriately precocious. Cleveland's neighbor Tim, a talking bear, is no Brian (or even alien Roger from American Dad), but Cleveland's rotund son Cleveland Jr. (Kevin Michael Richardson) is every bit as hapless as Chris. And then there's the Broken Chair, a bar that's a stand-in for the Drunken Clam. The Cleveland Show doesn't go in as much for Family Guy's signature free-associative cutaway gags, but it certainly delivers its share of hit-and-miss gratuitous digressions, random pop-culture references, and celebrity potshots ("I'm all worked up like Ian McKellan at a high-school basketball game"). With characters still finding their voice and footing, Cleveland lives and dies by the jokes. Each episode has enough good ones to warrant repeat viewings. One of the more consistent episodes is "Buried Pleasure," which somehow manages to tie in a reclaimed sex doll with An Officer and a Gentleman. Another random pleasure of the series is the eclectic and oddball roster of guest voices. "The Curious Case of Cleveland Jr. Working at the Stool," another season benchmark, features outré director David Lynch as the Broken Stool owner with absolutely no business sense. And while there is something in most episodes to offend someone, "A Brown Thanksgiving" had the distinction of earning the Parents Television Council's "Worst Show of the Week" designation. The generous bonus features include deleted scenes, commentaries with cast and crewmembers for all episodes, and a "Meet Cleveland" featurette. A parental caution: If offered as a special feature, choose an episode's original televised version lest young ones hear an uncensored F-bomb. --Donald Liebenson

I really love all of the Seth Macfarlane programs. This show borrows a lot of its style from American dad and family guy so if you like those you will surely be into Cleveland. A wonderful cartoon show.

4.0 out of 5 stars A worthy spin-off February 20, 2011

By OoAK

Format:DVD

I, like many, when first heard news of Cleveland getting a spin-off wasn't too thrilled. Cleveland was always seen as the supporting character that was funny every now and then but I couldn't see a show focused on him being that great. But when it aired I decided to check it out, and was somewhat surprised. While Cleveland isn't the most constantly hilarious guy, this show does work in my opinion. But, it's the supporting characters that really save this show. Rollo is a great counter point to Stewie, Cleveland Jr. can make me laugh just with that voice(nods to KMR). While Cleveland Show may not be to the quality of early Family Guy, it's not a flop in the least. I know alot of people brought up that Quagmire should've been the one to get the spin-off, and while Quagmire is a fantastic character and is pretty much always coming with a "lol" moment, I think he's the kind of character that works in small doses. Too much of a good thing can be a bad thing, and Quagmire having his own show would fall into that category for me. But I digress. The Cleveland Show is funny(I know that's completely subjective) and I am currently enjoying the second season as well. Hopefully the show is able to continue into many more seasons.

I don't like this show but I did purchase it for my daughter that does. The case and packaging was nice but nothing special. I think any one who likes the show will not be disappointed

Amazon downloads are awesome. you get to view them whenever you want and pick the ones you'd like to watch. sometimes you don't necessarily want the whole season.
