Family Guy - Season 5 (DVD) ... Century Fox Home Entertainment / Features of the DVD: Box set, Dubbed, PAL / The debates have already been raging across the Internet over whether Family Guy has peaked, whether it’s the funniest show on television at the moment, and whether it’s better than The Simpsons, or some way behind it. Yet while most will agree that season five isn’t the best the show’s creators have produced, don’t let that blind you to the sheer joy contained within this DVD set.The highlights of Family Guy for many, of course, are Stewie the ingenious baby and the family’s dog Brian (arguably the sanest one of the lot), and both are in fine form here. And while this series again allows many of the supporting characters a space in the limelight, it’s Stewie and Brian who remain responsible for some of Family Guy’s funniest moments. Bluntly, there are plenty of them.Still, there’s little getting away from the fact that season five lacks the spark that energised the superb first two or three series, and as a result, there are episodes here that are good where they were once great. There are, still, plenty of examples of the old magic, and it’s still primarily a real pleasure that’s pretty much guaranteed to raise laughs from those who don’t mind their entertainment with a bit of edge. But it’ll be interesting to see where Family Guy goes from here, and whether its real glory days are permanently consigned to the past. --Jon Foster

****Family Guy-Season six**** **About Family Guy in general** For those of you that have never seen family guy it is about a family and their mad lives. The main characters are Stewie a two year old, Meg ,Chris,Peter-the main character,lois and Brian the talking dog. The series is filled with jokes that would be described as politically incorrect but are funny i think that this season is a complete and utter let down compared to the other seasons.Crap episodes such as when meg gets a job as major wests assistant make me wonder why the producers even still have a job. I hope they improve drastically or i wont be buying/watching the ...  Read the complete review

Season 5 of Family Guy is not up to the standard of Season 3 and 4 which are both well worth buying. This season has 14 episodes offering you one more than you get in season 4. The episodes are spread out over 3 discs and the first disc is the best by far but from then on the laughs become fewer. The first disc has 5 episodes and I have picked out my two favourite from this disc and have given a brief overview. Episode 1, PTV is my favourite episode of the entire season and is one of the best Family Guy episodes made and if the rest of the season were like this then it would be one of the best TV DVD boxsets out there. In this epsiode the FFC ...  Read the complete review

Family Guy - Season 5 is the fifth season of Family Guy from the same person who brings you American Dad, Seth McFarlane. This season premiered in 2006. Family Guy follows the Griffin family, who live in Quahog, New Jersey. The head of the household is Peter, an absent minded father who is not the smartest person in the world. He is married to Lois and together they have three children, Meg, who is often the butt of jokes because of her low-key appearance, Chris, who takes after his father in a lot of ways, and Stewie, a baby with machiavellian tendencies who seems determined to take over the world. I love the secondary cast they have as well; it's ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Funny - But Lacking Something. (367 words)

Family Guy created by Seth MacFarlane is an animated television show which is based in the fictional town of Quahog. The show follows the Griffin family comprising of Peter, Lois, Chris, Meg, Stewie and their dog Brian. Not to forget a whole host of neighbours that live along side them on Spooner Street. I was very eager to watch the fifth season of Family Guy after the brilliant forth season (of which I've still to review, but I never seem to review anything in order these days.) But unfortunately I feel that this is the weakest link of the Family Guy Saga. They say things get better with age but perhaps this is Family Guys midlife crisis, where the ...  Read the complete review

When it was dropped from the Fox network in 2002, everyone thought that was it for Family Guy after three relatively successful series. However, after an incredible success in DVD sales, the network had no alternative other than to bring it back…and they did. Did they succeed though? Well many people have said ‘yes’, myself included, and this is the second release of their comeback, Season Five… Comprising of 14 more episodes in a 3-disc box set, it continues it’s use of non sequiturs to make humour – turning the script from normal into the totally surreal. Many people argue this is the only way the comedy is produced, and hence it’s getting boring. I beg to ...  Read the complete review
