Summary: Brilliantly Funny
Review: The Simpsons may be more clever, but for pure, unadulterated hilarity, this is the funniest. There are so many highlights to this show it's ridiculous. The funniest characters are probably Stewie and Mayor Adam West (yes, you read that right), but everyone on the show gets there moment to shine eventually. This show only had two full seasons, so BUY THIS SET!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Family Guy has abdicated The Simpsons
Review: I'm sorry. But it's true. I have never laughed so hard in my life. What?

Oops. Hey. I'm Dan. Family Guy is without a doubt the funniest show in this realm and other cool words like that. Does this mean anything to you? Trust me, if you like fast-paced, bordering on all aspects of offensive humor...this show is for YOU. If you haven't seen it, you're [dumb]. If you have seen it, you're a fan of the show...

Ok. Buy this DVD for my friend Seth. He has lots of child support and enemies to finish killing off.

Summary: It's Like The Simpsons...Except Funnier
Review: I saw my first episode of "The Family Guy" about a year ago, not long before it got cancelled. I'm one of those people who loves a sick joke or a tasteless stab at society, and so I naturally laughed myself silly watching this show. It's a lot like "The Simpsons" in that it parodies a lot of things about American culture (and other cultures too) and isn't afraid to make a tasteless joke at someone else's expense.

But where "The Simpsons" stops, "Family Guy" begins. Peter, one of the main characters, is even larger and dumber than Homer'almost aggravatingly so'but his stupidity contrasts well with the unexpected intelligence of Baby Stuey. Stuey is probably a year old, but he talks like a college grad and curses like a sailor. That and he's constantly plotting to kill his mom.

Add to this a talking dog (who is always one to make the snide remark) and a refreshing disregard for being "appropriate," and you have the greatest show that never should have been cancelled. I learned that it wasn't Fox that took the show off the air, but a dispute between the cast members. Either way, it's a shame.

If you're the overly sentimental type or if you get easily offended, skip this show (as it will probably just frustrate you). However, if you like "The Simpsons" at all, you'll love "Family Guy."

The DVD includes some commentaries on some of the episodes, behind-the-scenes stuff, and deleted scenes. (95/100)

Summary: Finally!!!
Review: I LOVE this show; it is tragically underappreciated and uproariously funny. It takes shots at everything under the sun - from swipes at pop culture to shots at the p.c. thoughtcrime police that seem to be pervading our culture. Fantastic show that can be enjoyed on both an academic and stupid-drunk level. Can't wait.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best animated series ever - period!
Review: I'm not going to go on and on as to why The Family Guy was and still is the best animated series. Others have already done a good enough job of that. Just add me to the list of people who will own this DVD the day it's released even if I have to pay retail.

PS: Shame on you FOX for bending to the overly politically correct dweebs! Instead of FG's comic genius we get bug eating losers and gold digging tramps? Oh that's much better. NOT!

PSS: ** Will some network please pickup The Family Guy!! **

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Sickening
Review: Any show that has the kool-aid man bursting through a court room is by definition, the coolest show ever.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Family Guy, Volume 1
Review: This has got to be by far the best animated series out there. The animation is good, the characters are likeable, and the jokes are hilarious. The jokes are edgy sometimes and could be taken for offensive, but if you aren't wanting edgy humor then stick to watching your little friends episodes.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Couldn't be any funnier
Review: Why fox dropped the show I still dont understand... or perhaps it was because of all the racial, ethnic and 100 derogatory comments per episode... but good god that made the show the idol it is to me. Honestly the funniest show ever to have aired and the way things are going with reality t.v. (...), will ever air. The writers are geniuses with so many smart humour jokes that most people don't understand, or perhaps weren't meant to be understood.. on top of non stop laughs. My favorite.. (while peter is sleeping on the job and gets caught by his boss) "Peter are you sleeping on the job?", "No sir i had a bug in my eye and I was trying to suffocate em..." ELITE. LONG LIVE FAMILY GUY. BUY TWO THESE ARE COLLECTORS.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best show that no one can beat.....
Review: Yes it's true. This show is the most twisted and funniest show that had aired on TV. The Simpson's 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 did'nt 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 can't wait any longer. So.. If your a big fan of movies and TV shows and you want to see a show that make's 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.

Summary: Unbelievably great show
Review: This show can be described in one word: fast. The jokes just keep coming. Family Guy is also good at producing shock value, with deeply penetrating jokes and satire. Highly recommended for all comedy fans.
