Amazon.com Like John Waters' shock-value comedies of yore, IFamily Guy/I keeps moving the taste-be-damned line. "You laughed at Ithat/I?" these episodes spanning seasons six and seven challenge viewers. "Okay, then laugh at Ithis/I!" 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 ISouth Park/I contingent, IFamily Guy/I 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 iAre You Smarter Than a Hispanic Maid/i, 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, IFamily Guy/I 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."p 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 IFamily Guy/I'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 IFamily Guy/I 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 IFamily Guy/I 2008 Comic-Con panel discussion. IFamily Guy/I, observes Mr. Sinatra, "is not comedy. It's satire." What it is, still, is way more often than not flat-out funny.

LOVE FAMILY GUY BUT NOT WHAT I WAS SENT March 2, 2010 Erika (LA) I LOVE FAMILY GUY SO I'M ALWAYS TRYING TO GET EVERY SEASON WHEN IT IS ON SALE SO KEEP IN MIND THAT I PAID A GOOD PRICE FOR IT BUT THAT I AM ALSO VERY PICKY.
br /
br /AND WHEN THE DVD FINALLY DID COME IT DID NOT HAVE THE COMPLETE COVER AND THE INSIDE OF IT WAS A MESS NOW THIS IS THE ONLY TIME I HAVE BEEN DISSAPOINTED IN AMAZON ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO SOMETHING THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BRAND NEW
br /
br /AND SECONDLY THE PROTECTIVE PLASTIC WAS NOT ON IT THE DVDS JUST LOOKED LIKE THEY WERE THROWN IN THE CASE AND IT DID NOT EVEN COME WITH THE CARDBOARD COVER
br /
br /SO I RATE 3 OUT OF 5 STARS JUST BECAUSE OF THE WAY I GOT IT
br /
br /BUT OTHER THEN THAT PETER GRIFFIN WAS HILAROUS AS USUAL
Family guy Vol 7 DVD February 16, 2010 Maria G (Salinas CA USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Came in a timely manner and just like the previous I had purchased it was worth it. My Kid loves it.
br /Thanks
love funny guy February 13, 2010 Margaret A. Sweet Every year I buy the new Family Guy eposodes for my daughter for Christmas. She is 19 and her friends are her have loved watching the show since it can out in 1999. I would recommend having all of the volumes of this show in your home. It's always good for a laugh.
The DVD content is great, however it is falsely advertised. February 11, 2010 T. J. Cullen (Harrisburg, PA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The content of Family Guy Volume 7 is great stuff, by all means buy it. However, when you receive it, you won't get what's pictured. The DVD no longer comes with the sleeve featuring the Griffins, just the bare-bones case, which doesn't make much sense. I was a little miffed because I bought it as a gift, and the person it was for knew there was a sleeve for the case, so it just made me seem cheap when I gave them a half-assed copy of it.
Another Success February 7, 2010 AL. B. (Litchfield, CT) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
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.

br /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.
