Seth MacFarlane's Cavalcade of Cartoon Comedy is an American cartoon web series created by Seth MacFarlane.

Background

The series, which consists of comic cartoon shorts (similar to the cutaways from Family Guy) unrelated to each other, is released on YouTube. The series, which aired several episodes a month, was originally sponsored by Burger King, 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.[1] It has seen a successful launch on MacFarlane's YouTube channel, SethComedy, becoming the most watched YouTube channel of the week, generating 3 million video views within two days of the first episode was released.[2]

Home release

The first season, with additional content, was released on DVD and Blu-ray Disc on May 12, 2009 and was set to be 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.[3] However, the five episodes that were not officially released online have been uploaded by other people on YouTube who bought the DVD/Blu-ray of the show which contained the remaining unreleased episodes.
