The three part Stewie saga will only be available on the Direct to DVD release. Uncensored I might add, WOOO HOOO.

The special features anounced for this box set are,
Commentary tracks (episodes and participants aren't known at this time)
Behind the Scenes with Stewie
Resurrection of Family Guy
Deleted scenes
Animatics
Family Guy "Live In Las Vegas" Music Video
And more!


This should be a great box set when it's released in November. Many great episodes from the first season of Family Guy since it was resurected on FOX after steller DVD sells and great ratings on Adult Swim. Any fans of animation or just great comedy should pick this one up when it comes out. Should make a great Christmas present.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but..., December 4, 2005

This review is from: Family Guy: Volume Three (Seasons 4-5 Part 1) (DVD)

Make no mistake, Family Guy Volume well below the standard set by Volumes 1 and 2, but it is still very good. With the exception of a few episodes (most notably, 'Don't Make Me Over'), Family Guy still retains the same off the wall humor that was prevalent in previous seasons, and thankfully, much less singing.

The worst aspect about Family Guy Vol. 3 is that it only contains the first 13 episodes of Family Guy. Fox, not content with milking Family Guy with 'The Freakin' Sweet Collection', have split the 4th production season into three DVD titles: 'Family Guy Vol. 3', 'Family Guy Vol. 4', and 'Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story' Vol. 3 is half the running time of Vol. 1, and of course, not half the price.

This allows Fox to push out the third volume before Christmas rather than wait until all of season 4 has aired. The second half of Season 4 is notably funnier and comparable to previous seasons in terms of quality...but does not appear on this disc.

The drop in quality and the lack of actual episodes on this volume may leave a sour taste in your mouth.
