Editorial Reviews

The cartoon series Family Guy is experiencing a network revival these days, and the CD, Family Guy Live in Las Vegas, is undoubtedly just part of the planned marketing blitz. Not exactly a soundtrack, this disc contains mostly new material created specifically for the album, all performed with Vegas lounge panache.

Freed from the constraints of television, series producer Seth MacFarlane tells viewers of the bonus DVD that the comedy on this disc will be "edgier." While Family Guy was never known for subtlety, most of the tracks on this disc are as heavy handed and mean-spirited as hitting someone over the head with a baseball bat. "All Cartoons Are F***** D**ks," with a guest appearance by Jason Alexander, is sort of funny, and the TV medley sung by Brian and Stewie is enjoyable (although it's overstayed its welcome by the time they get to the "Who's the Boss" theme). Other tracks like "Puberty’s Gonna Get Me," and "'Q' Man Loves Nobody" are just painful. Perhaps the most entertaining part of this package is Stewie's "Sexy Party" video, which is found on the DVD. This disc holds promise for Family Guy fans and anyone who's driven to hysterical giggles by the word "balls." For others—not so much. --Leah Weathersby--This text refers to the explicit edition.

I occasionally watch FAMILY GUY, but I'm not as big a fan of the show as I am THE SIMPSONS or SOUTH PARK. It is a funny show and I often get a laugh when I watch. I picked up FAMILY GUY: LIVE IN VEGAS because I thought there might be some bits that I could play on the webradio show I used to broadcast. I even picked up the "clean" version of the album, thinking there would at least be three or four songs I would be able to get into rotation. I was wrong. FAMILY GUY can be a hysterical show, but its just as crude, rude, and vulgar as it is funny. The show doesn't just poke fun at society, it roasts it. It's the difference between simply having an itch in your eye and having a javelin stuck in your eyeball. I thought the album would be like the show, but it's edgier, more disgusting, and more obscene. And this is the clean album. The only song that I really enjoyed listening to is "T.V. Medley." That tune is a duet composed of mainly 1980s television show theme songs sung by Stewie and Brian. "The Theme From FAMILY GUY" was the only other song I was able to get away with playing over the airwaves and to be honest it's the only other song on the album I liked. Some of the tunes have witty titles, e.g. "Puberty's Gonna Get Me", but unfortunately they step over the edge and quickly become inappropriate.

The DVD disc included with the album isn't much. It includes Stewie's "Sexy Party" music video, a making of "Sexy Party" short, a making of FAMILY GUY: LIVE IN VEGAS featurette, and a trailer for AMERICAN DAD. The making of the album featurette is really the only item on the disc worth taking any time to watch, but it's not that informative and really not that interesting.

FAMILY GUY: LIVE IN VEGAS is an item that big fans of the show will probably like (make sure to get the Parental Advisory one, though). However, if you're just a casual fan of the show, you will be better off just downloading the tunes you really want.

This is definitely not a cd to buy young children or even young teens. I bought this cd for my 17 year old son and though it states that it is explicit, I did not realize how much bad language there actually is on this cd. The language on this cd, I feel is worse than hip-hop. I haven't listened to the whole cd, but my son said that all of the songs pretty much have a lot of cussing in them. I don't know why they had to use that language when the songs would have been better without it. A few bad words here and there aren't too bad, but this cd is riddled with them. It's really disappointing. I don't really care for this cd because of the language, but my son likes it (but then again he is a 17 year old boy!) so that's why I rated it like I did.
