Rating: Summary: ... Review: This show was too good for TV. I wish it had never come out! Its better to never known love then to love and lose a masterpiece such as this.
Rating: Summary: Greatest Show Ever! Review: The only thing I have to complain about is the 3rd season not being on here, I have to wait that much longer for those great episodes.And to the last post, did you not read correctly? there are 6 episodes with "Comments by the directors." There are 28 episodes from the first and second seasons on DVD. There are 5 DVD's in this set. The first 28 episodes are on this DVD set and the last 21 epsisodes will come ou tlater I won't go on about how great this show is, it's occupied my HD for some time and I can't wait to get these on DVD. Too bad they cancelled this show, one of those big mistakes that networks always make. :(
Rating: Summary: Hallelujah! Review: both Season 1 and 2 (all 28 episodes) in one dvd box set! who could ask for anything more? well, hopefully volume 2 should come out soon. volume 2 should be all 22 episodes of the third (and last... sniff sniff) season. then, only then, shall i attain true nirvana and dance the dance of life, the joyous life with all 50 episodes! (the last episode "wish upon a weinstein" never officially aired on TV, but can be found and viewed via the glorious internet. fyi - the last episode was also rumoured to be included in this box set, though now, it is highly doubtful.)
Rating: Summary: please disregard Seyton's review Review: For those of you who might have been confused by the review written by "Seyton", please pay no attention. I don't know where that person got the idea that this DVD set only has a handful of episodes on it. The set indeed has ALL 28 episodes of the first and second seasons of "Family Guy", as stated by, among other places, the product page for this very product. Let's not even try to understand why he thought that 2(episodes per disc)x4(discs)=6. And furthermore, the show had a total of 49 episodes, plus one unaired episode. Anyway, it is a terrific, cutting edge, amazingly original show, but if you're here you either already believe that with your whole heart, or hate the show so much that anything I say won't convince you otherwise. For those of the former, do consider buying this DVD set because the show, now that it is cancelled, can only live on through us fans. I understand that the set is well-packed with commentaries and the like. I personally only gave it 4 stars because i know the region 2 DVD set (in Europe) also included the unaired episode ("When You Wish upon a Weinstein"), and I for one think we deserve to have that episode a whole lot more than the French do at this point. In summation: this set does have all 28 episodes of seasons 1 & 2, and the show... well, there's nothing like it, and you know it. Buy it now.
Rating: Summary: Crazy Fool Review: This box set has 28 episodes of family guy, thats every ep from the first two series. Each disc has just two directors commentries on it. We've had the first two series in the UK for a year or so now and we get the third series in April and I have to say that the DVD's hardly leave my machine (exept to play Eddie Izzard and Brass Eye). What more can I say, BUY BUY BUY!
Rating: Summary: Intelligent, Funny and Simply the Best Show Ever Review: The thing that struck me most about Family Guy was how it was so much more than the sum of its parts. Each individual character has a creativity and charisma of his own but it's the dynamic that exists between them that breathes life into the show. For example the dialogues between Brian and Stewie are just hilarious! And Peter's idiocy is magnified 10 fold simply when contrasted to the reliability of Lois. Other characters such as Quagmire, Cleveland, Joe and especially Tom and Diane provide the unpredictability and enrichment that makes each Family Guy moment a unique experience. There are only a few shows that I would not hesitate to spend $ for. Family Guy is most definitely one of these shows. A brilliant comic gem filled with all the ingredients of creativity, wit, humor and political incorrectness that will make it a treasured memory for years to come.
Rating: Summary: Buy this dvd. Review: The DVD is not out yet, but Family Guy was one of the great shows on televison.
Rating: Summary: Too Good for TV Review: This joins Futurama and Clerks:animated as too good for television. A casualty of horrible and ever-changing time-slots, Family Guy is probably the greatest animated show. Ever. If this show never came on the air and pushed the bar on qualtiy writing way up, Simpsons would probaly be far worse than it is now, and on a different time-slot than Sunday if you know what i mean.
Rating: Summary: As good or better than the Simpsons Review: Family Guy is an amazing cartoon and everybody should own it...they are absolutely hysterical and you can watch them over and over and laugh like it was the first time definitely buy this DVD!
Rating: Summary: About freakin' time!! Review: This show is one of my favourite TV shows ever in the history of ever. It is smart, funny, fast paced, and I can't believe its not still being made. Buy this DVD and encourage more Family guy!!
