I love Sam Elliott, but the Wild West character simply does not work. It does not fit into Family Guy and every episode that involves the character is boring. Definitely does not live up to Adam West. This was a failed experiment that they need to move on from and find a new mayor. Elliot is great when he cameos as himself, but should be limited to that. At this point, I would much rather watch a Meg episode than more of the Wild West stuff. There is infinite potential for a better character in that position. I do not presume to have the answer to who would be a great replacement, but that's why they have dozens of highly paid riders on their staff, who are clearly not earning their paychecks at this point. I have watched family guy since day one and will continue to watch it regardless, but it's getting painful.
