While it started as a simple three part episode, it ends as one of the best Family Guy outings ever.,

This review is from: Family Guy Presents Stewie Griffin - The Untold Story (DVD)
The classic animated series "Family Guy", follows up the success of its return to the Prime Time lineup, with a DVD movie, "Stewie Griffin, the Untold Story". The film is a three part story wrapped around and intro and wrap up that parodies a Hollywood premiere and party.
The jokes fly fast and bawdy and pull no punches. Every pop culture reference no matter how obscure and some of the more controversial issues of the day are tossed in, and for the most part, work. The story follows the evil genius Stewie, who after a near death experience decides to change his ways as Hell does not hold much appeal for him. After the family gets Tivo, Stewie spots a person on television that is a spitting image of him. Convinced that the man is his real father, Stewie and the family dog Brian, join the hormonally driven Quagmire on a cross country trek. When Stewie reaches the coast he is shocked to discover the true identity of the man which will propel the remained of the story. While the show has a few misfires, it is mostly filled with one effective joke after another. The laughs were constant and I found myself enjoying every moment of the film. The laughs are very good, and if you are a fan of the show and do not mind some biting, and crude humor, this is a great escape. Fans of the show will love the usual interplay of the characters and the familiar style and pacing as the film plays out like a regular episode of the show, as it was initiated as a three part episode. The inclusion of segments that would not have likely made it past the networks Standards and Practices department only ads to the enjoyment of the show as it is nice to see a shown known for pushing the envelope taking steps that it would not otherwise be able to take. 4 stars out of 5.

Completely Hilarious,
By That one guy - you know the one "Dennis" (Dixon,MO USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Family Guy Presents Stewie Griffin - The Untold Story (DVD)
I was a little shocked to actually hear the F word come out of the characters mouths- I was expecting a decent amount of bleeps- but was pleasently suprised when there were no bleeps to be heard- no blurs or black boxes (except for one- but I feel it needed to be done)- and I almost peed my pants at the sight of Sgt Scrotes, and the line "......anything with an amputee" (you'll have to see it to understand). As with any Family Guy episode there are the occassional groaner, but for the most part it stays true to the TV series.
After a near death experience, Stewie tries to be a better person as to not end up in hell (his glimpse into his possible eternity of damnation left him frightened for his soul) After giving up on being nice, Stewie happens to catch a glimpse of a man on Television who has an uncanny resemblence to him- so he sets out, with Brian, to find the man who he believes is his REAL father. The movie gives a glimpse into a possible future for the Griffin family, and, as in the TV series, Meg's future is the most interesting, and as it always is in the show, the meanest (what do they have against Meg anyway?) For the Hardcore Family Guy fan (those that felt that it's first cancellation was a crime to TV, and rushed out to grab a copy of the the first season when they heard it was being released and missed many nights of sleep waiting for the day- yep - like me)- this is a must see, for casual fans of the show- eh- maybe- if you hate the show- just avoid it. Sure, it's not a pinnacle in animation- far from it (rememeber, this is a show that pushes the envelope on good taste, it's no Beauty and the Beast) I do think it would've been fun as a musical (which could've used a ton of Disney/Classic Musical movie parodies- but still funny)
