Not impressed. Pretty boring. Best part was the beginning with the rest of Family Guy's cast.

This one is only getting a few more plays from me unless it picks up. It wasn't bad but wasn't good either for me.

I feel the same way about this that I did about American Dad! when it started, now it's even better than ever. I feel like this will grow on me.

funniest moments for me (right at the beginning)

Cleveland: Thank you all for coming
Quagmire (offscreen): OH!

or

when cleveland had the ladies kissing and Quamire was saying "touch the boob" and again later when Cleveland and Peter hugged.

Basically the only funny parts were with the Family Guy gang.

I thought it was simply terrible. I don't think I even chuckled once when Cleveland was on his own. I found the characters very annoying - especially the sound of his sons voice. I can't see this show lasting half a season.

Unimpressed thus far. I'll continue to stick with it though.

No, I think he was getting him confused with Joe's son Kevin who was called in Iraq.

I caught this over the summer and didn't really care for the pilot. I'm indifferent - I'm not a big Cleveland fan as it is so I may or may not catch this. I don't watch American Dad! so I'm iffy on this one. We'll see how next week's episode is.

It was a lot funnier than I expected. I didn't know that Sexy Sanaa Lathan was on this show.

The next door neighbor Bear was hilarious to me. At first it was like huh? But then he started talking and I totally dug him.

I do think the show may be doomed though, since the target audience may not actually tune in. Judging by comments here even Family Guy fans won't tune in.

I too found it much funnier than I expected. I also liked that there was an actual storyline rather than just a lot of random crap. I think Seth is his funniest when he tones down the randomness and simply has those bits enhance an actual storyline.

I thought it was a bit weak, although the little kid is awesome. I wonder how they'll deal with the referential stuff because this episode had the "out" of explaining the backstory.

I found it okay and got a few chuckles especially the R. Kelly joke.

I think I laughed once, but I can't think for the life of me what the joke was.
