Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Like John Waters' shock-value comedies of yore, Family Guy keeps moving the taste-be-damned line. "You laughed at that?" these episodes spanning seasons six and seven challenge viewers. "Okay, then laugh at this!" AIDS, cancer, incest, September 11, and the films of Matthew McConaughey are all grist for the mill. Though it has taken its lumps from the South Park contingent, Family Guy merrily stays true to its absurdist, arbitrary muse. The stories are ludicrous: James Woods steals Peter Griffin's identity; Brian discovers he has a son; Stewie, Brian, and nebbish pharmacist Mort time travel back in time to Hitler's Germany; and Peter discovers Jesus Christ working at a used record store. You got a problem with that? "Go on the Internet and complain," Brian suggests. The pop-culture references are as ever arcane. "That's more of a letdown than Fruit Stripe gum," Peter remarks at one point. And the politically incorrect jokes can be jaw-droppingly wrong, as witness the game show Are You Smarter Than a Hispanic Maid, the flamboyant gay stereotypes flaunted in the episode "Family Gay," and a bit in which hearing-impaired actress Marlee Matlin tries unsuccessfully to connect with Moviefone. And how does a series on Fox get away with the moment when Stewie finds a McCain/Palin campaign button on a Nazi uniform? From Dane Cook to Jay Leno, Family Guy is always up for celebrity bashing, but some are in on the joke. In "Family Gay," Meredith Baxter spoofs her signature women-in-crisis Lifetime movies, and Seth Rogen good-naturedly supplies his own voice when Peter is injected with the Seth Rogen gene that "gives you the appearance of being funny even though you haven't actually done anything funny." And kudos to Andy Dick for his room-clearing cameo in "Tales of a Third Grade Nothing."

Each episode can be viewed as originally televised or uncensored with F-bombs and other crudities unbleeped. Curiously missing in action from "Ocean's Three and a Half" is one of Family Guy's most inspired bits in which Peter's voice is mixed in to the now-infamous Christian Bale rant tape (you can find it on YouTube). Loyal Family Guy viewers are also rewarded with deleted scenes, lively episode commentaries, an entertaining behind-the-scenes look at the episode "Tales of a Third Grade Nothing," featuring Frank Sinatra Jr., and the Family Guy 2008 Comic-Con panel discussion. Family Guy, observes Mr. Sinatra, "is not comedy. It's satire." What it is, still, is way more often than not flat-out funny. --Donald Liebenson

1.0 out of 5 stars WARNING, January 12, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase

BUYER BEWARE.FAMILY GUY VOLUME 7 IS NOT SEASON 7.IN FACT THE FIRST 4 EPISODES ARE FROM SEASON 6. ALSO THE LAST EPISODE ON VOLUME 7 IS "THE JUICE IS ON THE LOOSE",THERE ARE 7 MORE EPISODES OF SEASON 7 THAT DO NOT APPEAR ON THIS DISC.BECAUSE OF THE WRITERS STRIKE SEVERAL YEARS AGO ,THE FAMILY GUY DVD RELEASES BECAME OUT OF SYNC. WITH THEIR SEASON ENDING PRODUCTION IN THE MIDDLE ,THEY RELEASED WHAT HAD BEEN PRODUCED THUS FAR AS A VOLUME.STARTING THE WHOLE CONFUSING SAGA OF VOLUMES CONTAINING THE REMAINDER OF ONE SEASON AND THE FIRST HALF OF THE NEXT.I BOUGHT THIS DISC,VOL 7 , ON MAY 3 2009. AT THAT TIME IT WAS THE NEXT SEQUENTIAL DISC IN THE DVD RELEASE.THEN 20TH CENTURY FOX ONE MONTH LATER ACTUALLY RELEASED THE ENTIRE SEASON 7 ON DVD. SO I WASTED MY $19.99 AS I HAD TO REPURCHASE SEASON 7 TO GET THE LAST 7 EPISODES THAT WERE NOT INCLUDED IN VOLUME 7.IT IS QUITE CONFUSING BUT IF YOU ARE READING THIS AS A FAMILY GUY COLLECTOR YOU WILL BE SPARED ALOT OF ANGUISH.FAMILY GUY SEASONS CONTAIN 16 EPISODES.MY ADVICE IS TO WAIT FOR THE SEASON TO COMPLETELY AIR ON THE NETWORK,FIND A COMPLETE EPISODE GUIDE ON THE INTERNET,AND MAKE SURE THE DVDS YOU PURCHASE CONTAIN THE CORRECT EPISODES THAT CORRESPOND TO THE CORRECT SESON.ALSO BEWARE OF A NEW SNAFU.AMAZON IS ADVERTISING SEASON 8 DVD AVAILABLE NOW.DO NOT BUY THIS AS IT DOES NOT CONTAIN THE COMPLETE SEASON 8.HOW CAN IT.SEASON 8 HAS NOT EVEN COMPLETELY AIRED YET.THERE ARE STILL 6 EPISODES LEFT TO AIR AS OF THIS DATE 1/12/10. WAIT UNTIL FOX HAS AIRED THE REMAINING 6 EPISODES AND BUY SEASON 8 WHEN THE DVD CONTAINS THE CORRECT 16 SHOWS.I HAVE BROUGHT THIS UP TO AMAZON AND THEY ARE NOT TOO CONCERNED ABOUT IT.THEIR DEFENSE IS THAT THEY NEVER TELL YOU IT IS THE COMPLETE SEASON 8.IF WE ARE DUMB ENOUGH TO BUY SEASON 8 IN MID PRODUCTION THEN THEY WILL GLADY TAKE OUR MONEY.I THINK IT IS DECEPTIVE MARKETING AND WOULD HAVE PREVIOUSLY HELD AMAZON TO A HIGHER STANDARD.THE BOTTOM LINE IS THEY WANT OUR MONEY AND WILL TAKE IT ANYWAY THEY CAN

3.0 out of 5 stars it's not even the right cover!, January 8, 2010

By	wendy johnson (olivehurst ca.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Okay I didn't buy it from Amazon but that's not the point, I saw the pic , saw it was 13.99 an said to myself "sold!". well I shouldn't have, when i got it the picture on the actual case didn't match the one on the website and it was in a regular dvd case.( it had a horse and lincoln on the front not the usual family guy picture) no way can three discs be in here. So , i went to Amazon to check out reviews(cause Amazon peeps review the best). So, I found out that Seth Macfarland pretty much went cheapy on the season or volume ...whatever it is and jipped us, the viewers, his meal ticket, with this one. I just wish they would advertise it with the right cover and tell us exactly what i'm buying. thank god it was cheap!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Success, February 7, 2010

If, like me, you've loved the previous volumes you'll love this one as well. Even though I expect outrageousness there are still times when even my mouth dropped.

NOTE: If you have children please understand that the rating on this show is there for a reason. There are far too many elementary school children talking about this show and while I love it for the release it provides adults it is highly inappropriate for children, damaging even.
