No More Family Guy on DVD! Jun 21, 2008 Fox is wasting money and time releasing Family Guy on DVD! The show should have ended during the writers strike. I hope many people realzie that Family Guy is really disgusting and violent. violent in animation is the last thing this world needs, because things are bad enough as it is. Please do not release anymore Family Guy DVDs!
Perhaps Fox was correct to cancel this show in the first place. Jun 18, 2008 Mindless silliness that has no redeeming value but being mindless, silly, entertainment. No wait, one would have to have a mind, and the knowledge and/or the experience of pop culture, and pop world history to get most of the jokes in the show. The title alludes that it is a show for the family but it is certainly not. And guys, your chick, your wife or any female around when you turn this thing on will not like it. They will find something better to do while you watch it alone or with your guy friends. Now is that what you want? Oh. You say you're a collector and know the value of such things in the future market? Perhaps Fox saw the writing on the wall when the Family Guy writers took the path they took. It's Peter, Peter, Peter. The Simpsons is a slightly better show because it sometimes has stories focused on Marge, Lisa, Maggie and not only Homer or Bart. Maybe the Family Guy guys should consider writing more for Meg and Lois--the poor things always lose. (I don't think The Simpsons draw a big female audience either--gals don't care for animated shows as much as guys do.)
The rolling commentary given by whoever worked on the show was disappointing because they go silent when some of the show's grossly odd scenes show up, begging to be explained. It made me cry "What were they thinking of here?"
A final thing: we've all gotten used to the way this show puts its humor across: the out of control cut-to vignette that has nothing to do with the main story line and usually summoned when one of the characters says "just like the time when Peter, celebrity's name, historical figure, or pop culture name did 'something.' You'd think it would get tired after the run of this show but we've have gotten used to it to our detriment. On a recent viewing of the current broadcast run Stewie summons up a vignette and pauses. After a good 10 seconds he looks up at the ceiling, rolls his eyes and says, "Oh, I thought we had something to come in here."
Tag this DVD a guilty pleasure that you can watch now on reruns in major markets instead of purchasing.
great gift May 29, 2008 i bought this for a Xmas present for a friend, the best choice, he love it
Freakin' Great! Apr 12, 2008 Thank God for this show. After a long day of work, I love watching an episode. It is a mindless show, yet the comedy is genius. I don't recommend it for kids and I am always somewhat surprised when I hear they like it. Many, many of the references (especially as the show has evolved) are ones that those of us who grew up in the 80s would recognize. That's the main thing I love about it.

good stuff Apr 11, 2008 I recently purchased Family Guy, Vol.1 Let me tell u this is the such a fun show too watch.. I'm ALWAYS laughing out loud. Stewie is so funny. The show does go way out there, but that's what makes it a good show.
thanks
