Microsoft Breaks Up with MacFarlane

By , About.com GuideOctober 27, 2009

Follow me on:

Seth MacFarlanePreviously I mentioned that Microsoft would be the sole sponsor of an upcoming Family Guy special. Looks like Bill Gates, or someone who works for him, actually watched the show and decided it wasn't the kind of show they should be backing. The AP is reporting that Microsoft backed out of the deal, after seeing the already-recorded special. Fox is searching for a new sponsor for the commercial-free special. May I suggest Enzyte?
