Fox has delayed its Family Guy spinoff Cleveland until next autumn.

The show centres around Peter Griffin's slow-talking neighbour and his son as they uproot from Rhode Island to Virginia.

Cleveland, which was initially penciled in for a spring premiere, will now debut during the 2009-10 season, reports Variety.

The network has ordered a further nine instalments, granting the animated comedy a full 22-episode season, and added Arianna Huffington to the voice cast.

Cleveland is co-created by Seth MacFarlane, Rich Appel and Mike Henry, who also voices the title character.
