For those concerned that they would die without ever seeing a sequin-overall-clad Stewie Griffin hustle to "Turn The Beat Around" after Microsoft pulled out of its sponsorship deal last week, fear not. Justice will be served by Sherlock Holmes himself. Yesterday, Warner Bros. announced that they would use Family Guy Presents: Seth & Alex's Almost Live Comedy Show to promote the studio's Christmas-timed Holmes. The Nov. 8 Family Guy program will now feature a sneak preview of the film starring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law. [Associated Press]
