Press Release: FOX Broadcasting puts out AniDom schedule for rest of season…Cleveland Show listed as ‘Season Finale’
FOX recently put out a press release sort of expanding on the previous one they did detailing the Animation Domination season the rest of the way up to and including the season finales. The interesting part is that despite the fact that its common knowledge that The Cleveland Show is no longer in production, FOX hasn’t officially confirmed the cancellation of the Family Guy spin-off and even has the show listed as ‘Season Finale’as opposed to ‘Series Finale’. This is somewhat putting to rest a bunch of the rumors floating out there concerning the show’s immediate future. To be quite honest I hope now it gets renewed for one more season as a fuck you to the know it all ‘cartoon news’ sites out there. Seriously, if something happens, we will tell you so keep it locked here. Check out the full press release after the jump!

"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
