Two more seasons of each

Family Guy and Bob’s Burgers have both been renewed for two more seasons.

The order from America’s Fox network will take the exploits of Peter Griffin up to its   20th series, and the Belcher family story up to its 13th season.

Michael Thorn, president of entertainment for Fox Entertainment say the shows were ‘key pillars of our network’s success’

He added: ‘By taking the genre to new heights and driving pop culture in meaningful ways, they’ve laid the foundation for making Animation Domination one of the most powerful programme blocks in all of television. 

‘Both of these two-season renewals affirm once again our commitment to animation and empower us to continue in our build as the leader in the space with distinct and fresh new comedies.’

Last year, Fox renewed The Simpsons for season 31 and 32.

Family Guy airs on Fox and ITV2 in the UK,  while Bob’s Burgers is on Comedy Central Extra.
