Summary: Most clever show of the past 5 years...
Review: This show is a cult classic. With pop culture references galore (from the Flintstones, to Dallas, to Facts of Life, to Bing Crosby, to Sesame Street) this show will keep you in stitches. In its short 3 season run it was everything the Simpsons has been in its 10+ year marathon of recycled storylines and far fetched plot devices. Buy this set, its a must have.Also, to dittydot who said : "However, there are two episodes that I loved that were the basis of my decision to purchase this, AND THEY'RE MISSING!!! Where is the Spoof of Willy Wonka (the one with the Beer factory and the Chumbawumbas?), and the Christmas Episode where Stewie plots against the evil Clause?" The Willy Wonka spoof (Chumbawumbas and all) is included on Disc 4 in the episode entitled "Wasted Talent". The christmas episode you are talking about, entitled "A Very Special Family Guy Freakin' Christmas" actually aired in Season 3 not 1 or 2, so neither of the ones you are talking about are missing. I can't wait for Vol. 2 to come out on Sept. 9. Hopefully it will include the 17 aired episodes of Season 3 along with the 4 unaired episodes. And maybe with a little nudging they will actually include "When You Wish Upon a Weinstein" from the second season that was not included on this volume.

Summary: Funniest Animated Show Ever!
Review: I've never written a review before, but this DVD inspired me. I missed this show the first time around. As a matter of fact, I never heard of it until I saw it for sale on Amazon and bought it base on the reviews. I was not dissapointed. From the very first episode, Family Guy is roll on the floor funny. I hate to say it, but the show is much funnier and better done than 75% of the Simpson's episodes. Buy this DVD; you won't be dissapointed.

Summary: For Those Concerned About The Missing Episode
Review: First off, this DVD set is incredible. I've been a huge fan of "Family Guy" since the post-Superbowl debut episode back in '99. I was hesitant about buying the set however, because after reading a number of reviews, I had learned that the un-aired episode "When You Wish Upon A Weinstein" was not included. Nonetheless, I made the purchase, and I'm glad I did! I just read an exclusive interview with Seth McFarlane on TVSHOWSONDVD.com and the "Weinstein" episode will DEFINITELY be on the upcoming Volume 2 set which will be released September 9th. I suggest you check it out if you require confirmation. Now, back to this set. I guess there's only one beef I have with this, and that would be that the Bin Laden joke was removed from the episode, "Road To Rhode Island". I guess the execs at Fox deemed it inappropriate. Aside from that, I couldn't ask for a better set. 2 episodes on each of the disks have been laced with optional commentary by McFarlane et al which provides insight into the making of the show which I found to be very insightful. It's a shame the show was so short-lived, but for those of you who want to re-live the episodes again and again, this is the perfect set to buy. Highly recommended.

Summary: Loyal Fan can finally rest in piece....
Review: Though I am eagerly awaiting it's arrival, I have seen the whole series when it was first run and through bootlegs. This show was the best thing to come out of Superbowl XXXI(?). It was the one the Atlanta Falcons lost. Anyway, The last episode was a surprise to me. Though it went of with a bang...I have longed for these episodes with it's jabbing humor, unrelenting and ballsy steroetypes and just plain ole' slapstick comedy. It was not for your faint of heart viewer. Like all cartoons, the first few epsiodes were finding it niche and cummulated with The Millenium Episode (DaBoom!) where, by and act fo god, and a huge chicken, many people who did not watch the show, began to recognize it's humor. Kudos to the producers of Fox to fill the Fans base's hearts with the release of this set and the rest coming this September, hopfully with, 'Wish upon a Weinstein' the unaired episode due to it's strong stereotyping of of the Hebrew faith (Optimus Prime makes a cameo). Well, I have praised it enough, have started a small cult here in Iceland, now, I can actually show all of the episodes, and be the envy of an entire military community, AND country

Summary: Great set but something is missing
Review: Like I said the first two seasons of the best show ever on television is absolutely wonderful. However, I wonder about one thing. Is it just me or did anyone else notice that the voice for Meg is different on this DVD as opposed to the TV version? I'm not sure why, but it seems to take away from the experience of enjoying these DVD's. I'll probably get used to the new voice but I wonder why it was necessary.

Summary: GREAT SHOW, BRING IT BACK FOX!
Review: This is selling very well, and hopefully Fox will see this and bring it back.

Summary: Best Cartoon Series
Review: This is by far the best cartoon series. The Simpsons is a legendary series itself. However, there have been weak episodes over the years- even weak seasons. The Family Guy did not have the same success as the Simpsons but I think I could have exceeded the Simpsons over time. I am very excited to buy more Family Guy dvd's.

Summary: Yes, it's that good
Review: There isn't much more I can say that my fellow FG fans haven't already said, but why should that stop me? For sheer volume and intensity of laughs, this is the funniest show ever. Funnier than the Simpsons. Funnier than Seinfeld. It constantly exceeds your expectations, skipping over the obvious joke, past the not-so-obvious joke, beyond the extremely subtle joke to hit a joke more surreal and offensive than you ever imagined. And it does so over and over. The DVD itself has a few shortcomings. There are some fairly obvious compression artifacts, and there aren't a great deal of bonus features. However the packaging is quite slick, and really, when you have this much great comedy in one package (28 episodes!), what's a few glitches? A great collection of a hilarious, delightful, and sorely missed program. Buy it.

Summary: Outstanding
Review: A show for the highly intelligent pop culture. Flashback sequences completely off the wall, references to TV commercials from the past, PBS shows and cereal cartoon characters. A brilliant show that never got its due. Maybe with the release of this DVD set, it will get it. I'm already glad to see Volume 2 will be released later this year.
