The Goode Family has found a new home.
Comedy Central has decided to pick up the series and re-run the initial 13 original episodes during the 10:30pm time-slot Wednesday evenings. “Mike, John and Dave certainly turn the tables on liberals with this show. That’s not done very often on television, but the humor comes from skewering extremism and taking things too far, either to the left or the right,” said Modi Wiczyk, Co-CEO of MRC. “We know Comedy Central viewers will embrace ‘The Goode Family.’”
Or will they? The show performed poorly for ABC — with drooping numbers as the series progressed. Said one critic, “The first line of dialogue in ABC’s new animated series is, “Look who’s got elephant dung!” That pretty much sums up the show.”
The cartoon, however, may work better for Comedy Central’s audience — especially since it’s in good company with shows like South Park. Presumably, if things go well, there may actually be a season 2 down the road.
