<P> Cleveland Brown ( voiced by Mike Henry ) is the protagonist of the series . He is a heavy - set African - American male who is very polite to everyone and has a unique laugh . He was formerly one of Peter Griffin 's best friends in Family Guy and also owned and ran a deli . In `` Pilot '' he moves to the town of Stoolbend , Virginia to show his son where he grew up ( even though Cleveland was in love with Donna but they were only friends and she did not know it ) . Eventually re-sparking his relationship with her , they get married and he and his son move in with her and her two children . Cleveland is usually depicted as exceedingly gentle and patient , and it is only on rare occasions that he has been known to lose his temper and resort to violence . However , Cleveland gets visibly annoyed with racist behavior , which sometimes is justified . He often acts as the voice of caution when other characters hatch harebrained schemes . Cleveland 's speech is slow and almost elongated in Family Guy , but in The Cleveland Show his voice has a wide variety . Various flashbacks give conflicting histories of his speech patterns . He is shown as a more sexual , stupid , and violent character in his new form than he was originally . </P>
