Advantages: 5 great episodes and a few interesting special features. Disadvantages: For about £5 more you can get a full season.
...this dvd.
For the uninitiated, Family Guy centres around the day to day lifes of the Griffin family: Peter, the dad; Lois, the wife; Chris, the son; Meg, the daughter; Brian, the family dog that can talk; and Stewie, the baby with the intelligence of an evil genius.
There has been a lot of comparison with a similar family, but with its dark humour, rapid-fire gags and poking fun at many different celebrities, helps this show come out of 'The Simpsons' ... ...the unique humour that is Family Guy. 4 out of 5

Advantages: A good start to your Family Guy addiction Disadvantages: Old episodes
...there will ever be. The Family Guy complete Freakin sweet DVD is a must have for anyone who likes a laugh. Witty and insightful, cutting and in some places just plain rude. This DVD contains five hand picked episodes from the creator Seth Macfarlane and includes a lot of funny extras. If you already own the first three series, which these episodes are taken from, then this would not be a DVD to purchase. However, if you are thinking of becoming hooked ... ...a taster.
The episodes are: When You Wish Upon a Weinstein (never aired on network TV),
Road to Rhode Island (original restored/uncensored episode never before available on DVD), To Love and Die in Dixie,
I Am Peter Hear Me Roar,
Lethal Weapons Enjoy and please feel free to rate this review. ...
