Summary: Forget the rest - try the best!
Review: "The Family Guy" is without doubt the funniest animated series to air on TV. It makes the Simpsons look like the Power Puff Girls. And it is more consistent (and less finger-pointing preachy) than South Park.If you have never seen the show before, but love anything FUNNY, you will NOT be disappointed. If you saw the show, and miss it, BUY IT. Notes: I have read that the missing "Weinstein" episode will appear later on Vol. 2 in September. As for the missing scenes, I don't know the reasons for the "JFK" scene being edited, but the "Bin Laden" edit MAY (and I emphasise "MAY") be due to the fact that series creator Seth MacFarlane was supposed to be on one of the planes that left Boston on 9/11 but missed the flight. Who knows. Anyone know of any other missing scenes? Those were the only two that jumped out at me. Still, edits or no, order this set. NOW.

Summary: One of the Funniest Shows EVER
Review: As sorry as I was to see it go, I can sort of understand why Family Guy got cancelled. The humor is certainly not for everyone, as this show feels very comfortable making fun of gays, the handicapped, child molesters, William Shatner and Adolph Hitler with equal abandon. For the easily offended or for those who think political correctness is a virtue this show is a nightmare. BUT.... For the rest of us, for those who value a tear inducing belly laugh over the tender feelings of others, it's hard to find a funnier show. Even after repeated viewings every single one of these episodes makes me laugh out loud. You'll have a hard time finding better comedy than this at any price.

Summary: Way ahead of its time
Review: ...why, WHY would one ever cancle this show! Family Guy is far superior to King of The Hill, which is still on the air! and futrama, also still on the air, for the most part. This DVD is a true testament to all the Family Guy fans out there who were truly robbed! the entire first and 2nd season is here! The winesteen was never aired, and its being said that it will be on Volume 2 set for release in September. FOX: The fact that your releasing this dvd is a sign a mistake was made! Most shows that are cancled don't get their ow DVD set! does, "Mission Hill" have a DVD Set? NO! Does "God,The Devil and Bob" have is own DVD set? NO!! Bring back FAMILY GUY!!

Summary: brilliant, yet flawed.
Review: Family Guy is a smart show. It lampoons American culture mercilessly, just as The Simpsons, South Park, King of the Hill, and Futurama do. The humor is sophisticated and outlandish, as you'd expect from this kind of show. Overall, it is extremely funny, and often requires repeated viewings. So why doesn't it get five stars? Why doesn't it receive the same kind of praise I would give to the four shows mentioned above? Well, the real problem is the characters. Despite the funny situations they get themselves into, Peter, Lois, Meg and Chris are overly dry and sterile. Yes, Brian's fun, and Stewey could very well be the most brilliant character ever created for a prime-time cartoon. But the other four, plus practically every non-family character, is a piece of cardboard. This doesn't take too much away from the enjoyment of Family Guy, but it is a significant disappointment. There are also a few minor flaws in concept and such, but they are not too important. All in all, an awesome satire/parody/caricature/lampoon, despite the shallow stars. Definitely worth it!

Summary: they cut the best part
Review: well, aside from being one of the best dvds i own, you MUST buy this. my only complaint is in the episode "road to rhode island" they cut the part with osama bin laden. when stewie gets a bag of guns through the scanner people, he goes "i hope osama bin laden doesnt know show tunes." and cuts to bin laden singing a show tune. it is the funniest moment of the show(or one of them)at the very least this should have been an easter egg. but all in all, its great, buy it, you wont be dissappointed.

Summary: This DVD isn't missing anything.
Review: I have absolutely no qualms with this DVD collection. I did want to mention though, that the unaired Wienstein episode isn't supposed to be on this DVD. If you look at Vol. 2, you'll find it there.
So... that explains the title to this review.

Summary: Show: A+ This DVD set: 2
Review: This show is clearly one of the finest achievements in prime-time animation. Consistently hilarious -- I can only recall one less-than-optimal episode, and even it was good -- and endlessly re-watchable. The only problem -- FOX. This set seems rather poorly and hastily slapped together. As another reviewer mentioned, it's missing an episode that, granted, never aired, but should have made the discs nonetheless. The "behind the scenes" featurette seemed to be one of those pieces thrown together by the network, only to air after Saturday afternoon movies that run too short, if ever. Filler. The packaging art left something to be desired. Also, in listening to the commentaries, I get the impression that many more commentaries were recorded than included. If I'm right, Fox has really botched this job. (And who writes their copy, trained chimps?) Anyway. I wish I could have given this a five star review, because the show deserves it. Hopefully Fox still has time to fix some of these problems before they release Volume 2. More bonus features, higher production values, please Fox. Pay the show and the fans some respect.

Summary: Great show, Bad video & extras
Review: "Family Guy" is one of the greatest and consistently funny shows ever to be on TV. FOX never got behind the show and it was cancelled twice despite the fact that it won two Emmys. Now the first two seasons are out on a very dissapointing dvd. Episodes: Nearly every episode on this set is perfect, the only one that wasn't good was "Wasted Talent" on disc 4. The best were "Da Boom" (about Y2K), "Death has a Shadow" (one of the greatest first episodes ever), "Let's go to the Hop" (lampooning high school movies) and "Chitty Chitty Death Bang" (where Stewie celebrates his first birthday). Video: The video on this release is horrible. Just as bad as the video on season one of "South Park" but since this comes from FOX, who have done perfect video for "The Simpsons" and "Futurama" it's inexcusible. The show is good enough that it's possible to still watch it, but the pixelation and blurry backgrounds do become annoying. Sound: Nothing wrong here, great sound. Extras: Very slim. Commentaries for "Death has a Shadow", "The Son Also Draws", "Peter Peter Caviar Eater", "Holy Crap", "Fifteen Minutes of Shame", "Let's go to the Hop", "He's too Sexy for his Fat" and "E Peterbus Unum" by creator Seth Macfarlane and various cast and crew members are included but for some reason aren't on every episode and contain a lot of silent space. Some promos and a lame featurette are also included. I would recommend getting this set despite its shortcomings just because the show is great, but hopefully FOX gets it together on Volume 3 by including better extras and the banned episode "When You Wish Upon a Weinstein"
