Family Guy Presents Stewie Griffin - The Untold Story

If you can handle a little profanity, this Star wars series using Family guy characters is hilarious. If you like Family guy this is a must see for you.

I am a long-time Simpson fan...ever since the Simpsons first came on the scene back in the late 80s I would watch the show every chance I got. But over the years the Simpsons started getting a little stale. And thats when Family Guy came in. Family Guy is, by far, the funniest animated television series since the Simpsons were in their prime. Were weighing in alot of shows here...Ren and Stimpy, Futurama...but theres something about Family Guy that just warrants gut-busting laughs. Maybe its Quagmires ridiculous attempts at picking up women, Peters wealth of ignorance, little Stewies attempts at world domination, or just the random silliness thrown in to all of the episodes, such as appearences by the Kool Aid man, the Two Scoops sun from the old Raisin Bran commercials, references to the old Incredible Hulk television series...and alot more. Family Guy is definitely not for the kids...all of the situations are adult and sometimes are borderline risque (which got the series cancelled, unfortunately). The network censors and committees have no idea what theyve done...they threw away a gold mine. While it could never truly replace the Simpsons, Family Guy was well on its way to becoming the new dominant animated series on Fox. The Simpsons have been stale the last few years...Family Guy breathed new life into prime time animation that you just dont see anymore. Its too bad, really. In any case, dont pass up the opportunity to own every episode on DVD!! Fans will love to have all episodes on dvd, I know im looking forward to it. And even if youve never seen it, then take my advice: Pick it up anyway! You will not regret it! The extra features are a little bare bones, but it doesnt matter. The show has enough laughs to keep you coming back...even watching the same episode twice wont lessen the amount of laughs you get from it. Definitely a great idea to put this classic but short lived series on DVD!

Think of the dry cool wit of the Simpsons, combined with the provacative humor of All in the Family, and I think youll have a pretty good idea of Family Guy. There are parts where youll laugh out loud and immediately feel guilty about laughing at the joke. Stewie is by far the utlimate evil genius and closet drag queen, always foiled by Lois, his mother. Brian, the talking dog, seems to provide balance, despite being an alcoholic and recovering cocaine addict. Then of course there is Peter, the dad, who is your stereotypical stupid father and would be strongly compared to Homer Simpson on his worst days. This is perhaps the funniest two and a half seasons of a show that has ever been. However, with this collection you only get the first and second seasons. Adam West as the mayor is a great touch too. I think you can tell that Im a huge fan, since this review is all over the place. Before you sit down and purchase this, it might be a good idea to check out the Family Guy on television, I believe its on one of the Cartoon channels at night sometime. The show isnt for everyone, and some people might be a bit offended by the humor.

Great series, but not many people talk about the commentaries, so I will. First off, not all the episodes have commentaries. I imagine this was to save space to include more actual episodes on each DVD by not commentarying everything. There are numerous spots in the commentaries where no one says anything at all, but most dont last more than 3-4 minutes each. I wondered if they had stopped entirely at one point. The voice actor who plays Lois is in most (if not all) of the commentaries, and shes very funny (as is Seth, of course). They do pick on the show (See that? It means Peter is REALLY STUPID) and on each other (No, really, just give me a Yes or a No, Seth, and dont explain, so we can sit here for 20 minutes in silence.) but occasionally Seth or Loiss voice actor will do a character voice cursing or saying something funny (thats quite a laugh). And, of course, theres mention of which scenes were considered riske at the time and which they had trouble getting past the censors. I wish the commentary was on all the episodes, though. Also, I kind of wish it was as full of info as the Futurama or Simpsons commentaries are. I got the feeling they were obligated to do the commentaries for Family Guy, and that perhaps it wasnt by choice.

This movie was the best one yet in the trilogy. It had alot of funny refrences and what not. This kept me and my buddies laughing forever. The only thing that I would stress is that kids that are under 13 should not watch this, unlike the previous movie. It contains 5 F-words, tons of sexual refrences and tons of homosexual refrences that (as a 13 yr old boy) the parents should only know about. Other than that, its awesome. Adam, Sues son

1. What are the two episodes per disk people talking about? Theres 5 to 7 on all of them. 2. Simpsons folks - there is no comparison. The two shows are too different. This is not a copy; its more creative and hard edged. The Simpsons is more polished; but Family Guy is funnier. (Sorry, its the truth.) 3. For a 2 1/2 season show; Ill let DVD sales and Cartoon Network ratings speak for me. It has been reported in TV Guide that Adult Swim is beating the ratings of Letterman, Leno and Kilborn (each) in 18 to 34 males. (Amazing) 4. I watch a lot of TV but I never knew Family Guy existed until it was already cancelled and they were showing the last episodes on Thursday. (2 hour blocks) If I didnt know about it; I doubt most others did. So its ratings were actually amazing. 5. DAMN FOX TO HELL!!! Fox totally screwed this show!!!!!!!

Family Guy Volume 1 contains the ENTIRETY of Season 1 & 2 on 4 discs! On Disc 1, you have ALL 7 episodes of Season 1 (featuring Lacey Chabert as Meg), and on Disc 2 through 4, you have ALL 21 episodes of Season 2. Here are some episodes that are on each disc: Disc 1: Death Has a Shadow Mind Over Murder A Hero Sits Next Door Disc 2: Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater Holy Crap Da Boom Death Is A Bitch The King Is Dead Disc 3: I Am Peter, Hear Me Roar! If Im Dyin, Im Lyin Running Mates A Pictures Worth A Thousand Bucks Fifteen Minutes of Shame Road to Rhode Island Lets Go To The Hop Disc 4: Dammit, Janet! Hes Too Sexy For His Fat E. Peterbus Unum The Story On Page One Wasted Talent Fore, Father A great way to start off your Family Guy DVD Collection! I highly recommend it!

A very funny movie that focuses on Stewie.

I have not yet bought this DVD, but I have seen a whole bunch of the episodes. Just like The Simpsons and South Park, two of the funniest shows ever, it has funny characters and hillarious plots. Seth McFaine can make any situation seem funny, and unlike The Simpsons and South Park, every scene in the episode has something hillarious. I think this is one of the best shows Fox has aired and since they took it off Fox, I am now watching it every night on Adult Swim on Cartoon Network. The characters are just one reason that this cartoon is one of the best out there. There is Peter Griffin, the beefy, borderline alchoholic, dumb father and husband, Meg Griffin, the drama queen daughter of Peter, who seems like Peters least favorite of them all, Chris, the second image of Peter, Stewie, the talking, evil, baby genious who wants to enslave the human race and kill Peters wife, Lois, who is the most normal of the Griffin family. And we can not forget Brian, the articulate talking dog. This show is one of my favorites, and one of the most random comedy shows of them all. (Thats what makes it so funny) Let me just tell you one thing, if you know how to laugh, youll love this show.

Yes its true. This show is the most twisted and funniest show that had aired on TV. The Simpsons where my favorite show but since the first episode came on of The Family Guy, The Simpsons never been the same for me. I almost though a brick at my TV when I found out that The Family Guy had been cancelled. But I didnt go though with it. I Just prayed and hoped that The Family Guy would come back on or a DVD would come out. So im thankful that the DVD is coming out, I already pre-ordered it because I cant wait any longer. So.. If your a big fan of movies and TV shows and you want to see a show that makes fun of them, then watch The Family Guy. You will enjoy it!, and you will have a great time wathing it over, and over, and over again. ...
