Family Guy Presents Blue Harvest

Pros: Must have for FAMILY GUY and STAR WARS fans.

Cons: None.

The Bottom Line: One of the funniest releases this year.

Review: Fans of the television hit animated show FAMILY GUY are die hard fans. They love each and every thing there is to know about the Griffin family. We all have our favorites (but face it, nearly everyone loves infant Stewie). But the Griffin family can not ...

Pros: very funny, sticks to Star Wars quite well, innovative spoof

Cons: only one episode, only 48 minutes long, not worth the price

The Bottom Line: As an episode, this was well above average, but it isn't worth buying as a DVD, and you could save money by getting the season 6 DVD.

Review: The sixth season of FOX's hit television show Family Guy started off with a pretty interesting premise, using the characters from the show to pull off a spoof of the original Star Wars film. Those who know the show well, are surely aware of how ...

Pros: A very cool celebration of "Star Wars," Fun concept, DVD bonus features, Collectibles, Humor

Cons: Too often gives a straightforward rewrite of "A New Hope," Bulky box for all features.

The Bottom Line: With "Blue Harvest," "Family Guy" presents a parody that is sometimes too straight from the source to be a true parody, but the bonus features sell the DVD!

Review: Following the success of the "Family Guy" "Freakin' Party Pack" which encapsulated all of the prior "Family Guy" DVD materials and repackaged them with a bunch of goodies like cards, poker chips, and a ping pong set, it seemed natural that the next ...

Pros: T-shirt and other extras, good humor, stayed true to movie

Cons: Short, Herbert character gets annoying, may be considered overpriced

The Bottom Line: Good buy if you like the boxed extras. Otherwise you should probably rent it.

Review: I saw this at Costco and, being a fan of Family Guy, felt that a parody of Star Wars would be worth buying. At $25, the box set yields a T-shirt (size XL), some trading cards, 3D glasses (which can be used for a DVD extra and also the trading cards), ...

Pros: Amusing in parts

Cons: Not very amusing

The Bottom Line: If you've ever wanted to see how Star Wars would look if it was done by Family Guy, now you can!

Review: One of the funniest animated shows on the Fox network is Family Guy. Even the stupider shows make me laugh out loud. Peter Griffin is so stupid that he almost makes Homer Simpson smart. Louis his wife is very tolerant and patient. His son Chris is laid ...

Pros: Lots of special features, some good

Cons: Blue Harvest isn't very funny

The Bottom Line: Blue Harvest isn't funny, but the special features help save the DVD.

Review: I'll start by admitting that I'm not the biggest Family Guy fan. I love the episodes I've seen, but I haven't seen that many. Knowing how much I love what I've seen, though, and how much I love Star Wars, I decided to order Blue Harvest on DVD. I ...

Pros: Was true to the movie plot mostly.

Cons: Too many to list.

The Bottom Line: You'll probably see it because of the hype, but it doesn't deliver like other cartoon movies.

Review: I am a huge Family Guy fan. I have their box sets, I watch their show, I Tivo it as well. I'm also a huge Star Wars fan. So Family Guy Presents Blue Harvest seemed to be right up my alley. First on my list of woes were my expectations; I thought this ...
