Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei:
2007<unk>2008 Writers Guild of America strike, i mutu te whakaputa mana o te whakaaturanga mo te nuinga o Tihema 2007 me etahi waa i muri mai. I haere tonu a Fox ki te whakaputa i nga waahanga me te kore whakaaetanga whakamutunga a MacFarlane, i kiia e ia he "haere nui" i roto i te uiui me "Variety". Ahakoa i whakakahore a MacFarlane ki te mahi i te whakaaturanga, ko tana kirimana i raro i te Fox e hiahia ana kia uru atu ia ki nga waahanga ka whakaputaina e ia. I timata ano te whakaputa i muri i te mutunga o te patu, me nga waahanga e rere ana i te Hui-tanguru 17, 2008. E ai ki a MacFarlane, i te tau 2009, tata ki te $2 miriona te utu ki te hanga i tētahi wāhanga o "Family Guy".
