Product Description:
The Force is strong with this episode of FAMILY GUY that devotes an entire hour to STAR WARS EPISODE IV: A NEW HOPE. Seth McFarlane s spoof-happy animated sitcom casts the Griffin family and other Quahog residents as characters from George Lucas s sci-fi classic: patriarch Peter is Han Solo wife Lois is Princess Leia son Chris is Luke Skywalker family dog Brian is Chewbacca and baby Stewie continues his quest to kill Lois as the evil Darth Vader. From Mos Eisley to the Millennium Falcon no element of Lucas s beloved universe is safe from McFarlane s hilarious satire. FAMILY GUY PRESENTS BLUE HARVEST includes four minutes of new material and interviews with MacFarlane and the Jedi Master himself Lucas.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 024543498575 Manufacturer No: 2249857

What better way to launch Family Guy's sixth season and commemorate Star Wars' 30th anniversary than with this double-length Very Special Episode, a full-scale, awesomely animated spoof that recasts George Lucas' saga with Family Guy's galaxy of characters: Chris (Seth Green) is Luke; Lois (Alex Borstein) is Princess Leia; Peter (Seth McFarlane) is Han Solo, but not, as expected, Jabba the Hut; Brian (Seth, again) is Chewbacca; Quagmire (and again, Seth) is C3PO; Cleveland is R2D2; Herbert, the creepy senior pedophile, is Obi-Wan (both voiced by Mike Henry); and, of course, Stewie (Seth, already) is Darth Vader ("My diapers have gone over to the dark side"). Poor Meg is reduced to a cameo as the hideous reptilian creature that haunts the garbage compactor. Blue Harvest is reverently faithful to A New Hope, while engaging in typical Family Guy pop-culture references (everything from those old Grey Poupon commercials to Doctor Who, Airplane, Dirty Dancing, and Deal or No Deal) and bizarre digressions (the iconic opening crawl detours into an appreciation of a "way naked" Angelina Jolie in Gia). Along for the wild ride are Judd Nelson, who contributes a voice cameo as John Bender for a Breakfast Club gag, Rush Limbaugh railing against futuristic affirmative action on Tatooine talk radio, and Beverly D'Angelo and Chevy Chase as the vacationing Griswolds observing the rebellion from their orbiting station wagon. A Star Wars spoof in 2007 isn't exactly uncharted territory. As Chris Griffin notes in this episode's final moments, Robot Chicken brilliantly did it months earlier (and let us not forget Mel Brooks' Spaceballs from 1987; or, on second thought...). But the Force is strong with Family Guy, and who could resist the opportunity to hear the Muzak playing in a Death Star elevator? --Donald Liebenson

I have to say it, this is probably the best episode of Family Guy ever! That of course, if you're a Star Wars fan.
The jokes are in the usual Family Guy style, so you know what to expect, Toilette humor at it's best. The spoof is so well done and with such detail that you could think that it was drown over the original movie frames, it's uncanny.
This is the ultimate box for every collector, you got the movie and the interesting extras (for instance a couple of readings of the next episode,"Something, Something, Something Dark Side"), the digital copy, a really cool book with original designs for the episodes, a couple of trading cards and a exclusive T-Shirt with spoof of the original Star Wars poster from 1977. It's a great bag of goodies, totally worth the money.

...where Chris says, "Didn't Robot Chicken already do this?"
While my father, brother and I are all huge Family Guy fans, this wasn't really THAT funny. Although I did like when Chris (Luke) says, "You do know a parsec is a unit of distance and not time, right?" So true...
The only thing this episode has going for it is that it's Star Wars...but if you want a REALLY funny Star Wars parody, do waht Chris says and go see the Robot Chicken Star Wars.

Finally got a chance to watch the full DVD version. Enjoyed it. It's better than the untold story release where they slapped together episodes. Looking forward to more releases like this one.

If you're a Family Guy fan, there shouldn't be any reason why you wouldn't enjoy this skit. I think it's much better than the Robot Chicken version although that had its moments. This skit takes the Star Wars parody genre to a whole new level. Some very funny bits in here and definitely worth the addition to your FG collection. As usual though, the creepy old pedophile sank my interest a but. His rendition of "I've Dad The Time of My Life" killed my buzz.
