Two actually kind of newsy tidbits came out an afternoon panel of the producers of Fox's animation line-up.

1. Work on a follow-up to Family Guy's most-successful-episode-ever spoof of Star Wars (an hour-long retelling of the original Star Wars movie, recast with the Family Guy characters) is, according to creator Seth MacFarlane, "basically done." It's -- can you guess? -- a spoof of The Empire Strikes Back and will be "shipping off" to whereever the show is animated sometime in the next week. No word yet on when it will air, but soon, Mr. MacFarlane promised.

2. Seth Rogen has written an episode of The Simpsons. Longtime producer Al Jean revealed that episode has Comic Book Guy creating a superhero that gets made into a movie played by a slimmed-down and buffed-up Homer, thanks to his celebrity trainer, played by -- wait for it -- Seth Rogen.
