Advantages: Excellent interpretation, funny, Family Guy and Star Wars fans must see Disadvantages: A little short
...massive Star Wars fans and they jumped at the chance of doing a parody, which was officially endorsed by George Lucas and Lucasfilm.
>>Blue Harvest
When a power cut threatens to ruin the Griffin Families night, Peter steps in to tell a story, the story of Star Wars and where else to start than at Episode IV!?
As far as I can see, there are three main types of people who will be interested in watching this DVD.
1. Family Guy fans.
2. Star Wars fans
3. Anyone wanting a laugh
In all honesty, the majority will fall into either category 1 or 2 as this is the target audience and anyone who hates Family Guy and/or Star Wars isn't really going to have much fun watching a combination of the two.
Blue Harvest follows the plot of Episode IV accurately but as you would expect with a unique interpretation of the storyline and Characters...

The 24 episodes are contained on 5 slim jewel cased DVD's which each have a colour picture of the family on the front, and a brief summary of each episode printed on the rear, these discs then slide into the cardboard sleeve of the box set, which itself shows a family portrait on the front.
PRICE & AVAILABILITY
This box set was released in April 2004, and is now widely available.
Shop around for the best price, as there are some wildly different prices!
I bought mine 8 months earlier from an EBay Store in America called moviemagicusa, and I paid £19.00 including postage!
Series2,3& 4 now available with series 5 coming out in August 2007.
I loved the series when it was on TV, and as a child...

Advantages: It's very funny Disadvantages: It's not worth £10 on its own.
...The two are such a natural fit; it's hard to comprehend why we haven't seen something like this before. "Family Guy"; an animated show that takes the mickey out of everything and anything and sells more DVDs than even "The Simpsons" and "Star Wars"; one of the most iconic of films, constantly spoofed and referenced simply because the franchise has become part of public awareness since the first film was released more than three decades ago. Even if the more recent trilogy wasn't nearly as good as the original one.
For those who don't know the series, the show works in true "Family Guy" fashion, being relatively faithful to the source material at the most basic of levels and dropping in jokes and other references where they might be funniest. Part of this involves putting the Griffin family - consisting of 2 parents, 2 teenage children...
