Family Guy Presents: Seth & Alex's Almost Live Comedy Show is a commercial-free live-action/animated variety show starring Seth MacFarlane (show creator, voice of Peter, Brian, Stewie, Quagmire and others) and Alex Borstein (voice of Lois) which aired on November 8, 2009 at 8:30/7:30 central time. It contains comedy sketches, original animation, and live performances of Family Guy’s best musical numbers, as well as some surprise celebrity guests.

  • The evening begins with a live performance of the theme song.
  • Seth then introduces Walter Murphy and His Orchestra, who play one of the transition cues.
  • The transition cue is used for an original animation, where Peter asks his family what celebrity they would have sex with.
  • Seth then begins to sing Edelweiss, but is constantly interrupted by Alex, who is uncomfortable about it.
  • Seth and Alex introduce some screen tests of Hollywood actors auditioning for movies they would never be cast in, including:
  • Stewie introduces a sneak peek at Sherlock Holmes.
  • Seth and Alex reenact the scene in "I Dream of Jesus" where Marlee Matlin calls Moviefone.
  • Alex sings "Poker Face" as Matlin, but the real Marlee Matlin comes on stage and has never been so insulted in her life.
  • Alex then tells a joke that only a rapist could hear, and the pianist laughs.
  • Stewie introduces a sneak peek at Ninja Assassin.
  • Alex and Seth introduce an animated clip from the failed Fox pilot Hill Street Jews.
  • Seth sings the contradictory theme song to the failed Fox western Cal Johnson (played by Patrick Warburton).
  • Seth and Alex play a little game in order to promote The Cleveland Show, where every time they would cuss, instead of being bleeped, the cusses would be replaced by a soundbite of Cleveland saying his name.
  • Seth concludes by singing a medley of some popular Family Guy songs: Shipoopi, Rocket Man and Surfin' Bird.
