Seth MacFarlane's Cavalcade of Cartoon Comedy is an adult animated web series created by Seth MacFarlane.

Background

This series is a compilation of animated sketches released on YouTube. The series, which aired several episodes a month, was originally sponsored by Burger King, who sponsored the first 10 shorts, with videos appearing on their official channel. The series was then sponsored by Priceline.com, and finally, Nike. There are a total of 50 episodes. It saw a successful launch on MacFarlane's YouTube channel, SethComedy, which became the most watched YouTube channel of the week, generating three million video views within two days of the first episode's release. MacFarlane later expressed disappointment with the quality of the series, believing he had been unable to give the show the commitment it needed at the time. The series is comparable to MacFarlane's other animated shows; Family Guy, American Dad! and The Cleveland Show.

Home media

The first season, with additional content, was released on DVD, Blu-ray Disc and UMD Video on May 12, 2009 by 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment, and was released on DVD in the UK on January 25, 2010. In addition to the 23 episodes officially released online, 27 episodes were exclusively included on the DVD and Blu-ray release. The release uncensored the first eleven episodes which were censored online.
