In a statement released Monday, Family Guy creator, Seth McFarlane stated that coming next May, late comedian Bill Hicks voice will appear on an episode of Fox's hit show.

Says McFarlane, "If Bill was alive today he'd be lining up for a chance like this. We'll just be manipulating his voice from several interviews and comedy albums to fit our needs. It will be great.

I highly doubt that if Hicks were alive he would be 'lining up' to be on any show, let alone one of such dubious quality as Family Guy. This is a joke, right?

If it is true then it's a little disrespectful, and a bit arrogant of Seth MacFarlane to say that.

He's dead. Not like he can complain about it.

Seth: "Hey Bill. If you don't want your voice on Family Guy say something."
Bill: .............
Seth: "Ok."

Sorry guys. Not really in a good mood right now.

Even for Family Guy, that is pretty disrespectful.
Fuck it anyway. Good thing he's dead otherwise it would never happen. Probably. Possibly. Whatever.

Well I got raped in the face yesterday, so cheer up!

And no, I really don't think Bill would be cool with this.

I don't watch Family Guy. Did anyone see this episode? How terrible was it?

If Bill Hicks were alive today he would have already done guest spots on Family Guy not to mention The Simpsons, would have hosted SNL 3 times, have about 2-4 failed sitcoms and talk shows, and would be appearing in Taco Bell and Coke ads.

It's true, and you know it's true.

I can see him probably doing guest bits, but there's just no way I can see him doing a commercial. Unless it was for cigarettes or something like that, that he had already mentioned using and liking beforehand.

On an unrelated note:
Is the "FUUUUU!!!" thing supposed to be like, "F You!" or more like you're just so full of rage that you can't even finish saying "Fuck!" Because I always figured it to be the latter.

You guys who don't know who Bill Hicks is, really need to look up some videos.

I feel like the guy was a genius. Maybe not quite, but I think he was pretty smart. And he put great spins on things and really made you think.

Sad that he died so young.

I think you'd really like him, Pepper.

About a month ago one of those "If you know who this is, but don't know who this is..." images was going round on Facebook with Bill Hicks and this awful UK reality tv guy on. I reposted it and some of my 'less cultured' friends got a bit arsey.

BBC4 aired a documentary on him after Christmas. It was called American: The Bill Hicks story. It was excellent - I really recommend.

I think that one documentary might be an instant video on Netflix. I could be wrong though.
