Amazon.com What better way to launch Family Guy's sixth season and commemorate Star Wars' 30th anniversary than with this double-length Very Special Episode, a full-scale, awesomely animated spoof that recasts George Lucas' saga with Family Guy's galaxy of characters: Chris (Seth Green) is Luke; Lois (Alex Borstein) is Princess Leia; Peter (Seth McFarlane) is Han Solo, but not, as expected, Jabba the Hut; Brian (Seth, again) is Chewbacca; Quagmire (and again, Seth) is C3PO; Cleveland is R2D2; Herbert, the creepy senior pedophile, is Obi-Wan (both voiced by Mike Henry); and, of course, Stewie (Seth, already) is Darth Vader ("My diapers have gone over to the dark side"). Poor Meg is reduced to a cameo as the hideous reptilian creature that haunts the garbage compactor. Blue Harvest is reverently faithful to A New Hope, while engaging in typical Family Guy pop-culture references (everything from those old Grey Poupon commercials to Doctor Who, Airplane, Dirty Dancing, and Deal or No Deal) and bizarre digressions (the iconic opening crawl detours into an appreciation of a "way naked" Angelina Jolie in Gia). Along for the wild ride are Judd Nelson, who contributes a voice cameo as John Bender for a Breakfast Club gag, Rush Limbaugh railing against futuristic affirmative action on Tatooine talk radio, and Beverly D'Angelo and Chevy Chase as the vacationing Griswolds observing the rebellion from their orbiting station wagon. A Star Wars spoof in 2007 isn't exactly uncharted territory. As Chris Griffin notes in this episode's final moments, Robot Chicken brilliantly did it months earlier (and let us not forget Mel Brooks' Spaceballs from 1987; or, on second thought...). But the Force is strong with Family Guy, and who could resist the opportunity to hear the Muzak playing in a Death Star elevator? --Donald Liebenson

  Another classic from Family Guy December 26, 2008 This was great. I've been a fan of the family guy ever since it first came out. It's not the same as it was back then but that happens with everything. This is a great spoof of Star Wars from Seth and everybody else on the staff. For all the people who get so mad because this isn't exactly like how Star Wars went need to chill out. Those people would be considered Mort from the show.
  Again another hit by Family Guy December 9, 2008 If you enjoy Family Guy, then I guarentee you are going to find this spoof on Star Wars hilarious and entertaining. If you are only a Star Wars fan, then you may not enjoy this as much. I personally am a fan of both and I loved it. Stewie as Darth Vader was an obvious and perfect choice. This is funny from start to finish and I definitely recommend buying it if you are a fan of the series.
  Family Guy: Harvest Moon November 24, 2008 Although I wished it to be a little longer,This Family Guy Special was indeed pretty good.
  Family Guy + Star Wars = A Classic October 16, 2008 I can't give 5 stars to a single episode that you have to buy on it's own. This was, however, amazing. I watched it a million times. I watched all of the extras. I absolutely LOVED this DVD.
If you are a Star Wars fan, and you're a Family Guy fan, this is worth owning.
  Family Guy October 3, 2008 I recently got into watching Family Guy, and this was right up my alley, I am a big Star Wars fan, this couldnt have been funnier. It hit the spot!
