The first look at Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane’s big-budget web series, Cavalcade of Cartoon Comedy is now live on the web.
The short, 45-second trailer (embedded) shows off the animation style (similar to Family Guy) and delivers a sampling of what’s to come.
So far, the variety show resembles a hybrid of the animated version of Gary Larson’s non-sequitur toons The Far Side and the random subplots from Family Guy — like baby Brit Stewie’s sexy party sequences or the Darth Vader meter maid.
MacFarlane revealed the multimillion-dollar-deal to create a web-based animation series supported by Google AdSense in late June.
The distribution plan is novel and groundbreaking approach for a web show — Google will replace static ads with Cavalcade clips on thousands of websites predetermined to be hot spots for the Family Guy demographic.
Of course, episodes will also be available on YouTube.
Cavalcade of Cartoon Comedy rolls out on Sept. 10 with 50 two-minute episodes.
