The Wired Autocomplete Interview with Seth MacFarlane
The Wired Autocomplete Interview is a popular video series by Wired Magazine where celebrities and public figures answer the most searched questions about themselves on the internet. The interviewees are presented with commonly searched queries pulled from Google’s autocomplete feature and then provide their own personal answers. It’s a fun and informal way to learn more about the individuals in question and address popular curiosities from the online community.
The first question was about whether McFarlane worked on Jonny Bravo. Surprisingly most fans did not know that Jonny Bravo is how MacFarlane got started in the industry. However, he stated, “I was a writer and part-time storyboard artist for Johnny Bravo for season one and then they fired us all and got some new guys and you know that’s that’s when the show went south”.
MacFarlane was able to release Family Guy a year after he was fired from Jonny Bravo. However, he gave up complete control of Family Guy in 2011 to pursue other projects in 2011 and only does voiceovers for the show now. Seth does voiceovers for Peter, Stewie, Brian, and Quagmire for The Family Guy. He also voices Stan and Roger in his second cartoon hit, American Dad.
Did Seth MacFarlane make the Simpsons?
MacFarlane answered this and talked about how the Simpsons influenced his work “Hi! I wish no I did not make the Simpsons um I have a lot of very good friends at the Simpsons Matt Greening is a friend and Al Gene and Mike Reese and Mike Scully and those guys that was that was actually legitimate throw clear I wasn’t trying to undercut what I just said the Simpsons definitely had an influence on my work and I think on the work of every animated show that came afterwards they rewrote the rule book so uh no I did not but hopefully uh hopefully you still like me”.
What does Seth MacFarlane look like was another autocomplete question, MacFarlane answered this with a laugh and asked “what are you, a idiot?”. There were other questions about MacFarlane’s role in The Gilmore Girls and the movies he directed. MacFarlane also spoke about the School he attended, Rhode Island School of Design and highly recommended it for anybody willing to study in the field of animation. He claims the school probably regrets that it thought him to develop his own style for the Family Guy show.
