In the earlier seasons of "Family Guy", Cleveland frequently appeared alongside his wife Loretta Brown (voiced by Alex Borstein), until their divorce was portrayed in the "Family Guy" season 4 episode "The Cleveland–Loretta Quagmire". The pilot episode of "The Cleveland Show" depicts Cleveland's farewell to the familiar characters and settings of "Family Guy". "The Cleveland Show" establishes its setting of Stoolbend, Virginia as Cleveland's childhood home town, and introduces a new family and set of characters supporting Cleveland as lead. Following "The Cleveland Show"'s cancellation in 2013, Cleveland returned to "Family Guy" the following year.
