I can’t claim that Seth MacFarlane didn’t follow Movieline’s variety show rules last night (I didn’t notice Geri Reischl, for starters), but Family Guy Presents Seth & Alex’s Almost Live Comedy Hour, veered deep into a stinky safe-zone by stealing sketch set-ups from Jay Leno’s mothball-suffocated closet of conceits. Let’s start with the hardest-hitting wit: There aren’t many Jewish comediennes because of — hear me out — the Holocaust. I’ll slap everyone’s knees in this whole room, and their Jewish mothers! Then MacFarlane and Family Guy voice actress Alex Borstein act out imagined screen-tests for Bea Arthur, Kathy Griffin, and Gregory Peck — just a couple of cards, these two. Guys, this sucked. Clip of the antics after the jump.
