It's not the best season but it surely showed the great potential to one of the best animated tv show for adults. It's a kind of humor that make some people unconfortable but if you have enough thick skin then you'll enjoy this show. Season 1 feels unpolished compared to new seasons but you can rest assure this one started with the right foot, it's funny enough to keep watching it and every season is best than the previous.

i shouldnt write why family guy is awesome so i won't. if your reading this you know what family guy is already. anyways the episodes are great, and well organized, but the behind the scenes special really leaves alot to be desired. it was short and kinda pointless, and i was really hoping for a decent special about family guy. Also the quality of the video is so-so, it seems like there was too much video on each disc and they just randomly compressed certain scenes. sometimes the video looks fine, and other times it gets blurry, and it just rotates back and forth. this may not bother most people, but it does me, considering im watching this on a 1080p plasma tv.
I am a long-time Simpson fan...ever since the Simpsons first came on the scene back in the late 80's I would watch the show every chance I got. But over the years the Simpsons started getting a little stale. And that's when Family Guy came in. Family Guy is, by far, the funniest animated television series since the Simpsons were in their prime. We're weighing in alot of shows here...Ren and Stimpy, Futurama...but there's something about Family Guy that just warrants gut-busting laughs. Maybe it's Quagmire's ridiculous attempts at picking up women, Peter's wealth of ignorance, little Stewie's attempts at world domination, or just the random silliness thrown in to all of the episodes, such as appearences by the Kool Aid man, the 'Two Scoops' sun from the old Raisin Bran commercials, references to the old Incredible Hulk television series...and alot more. Family Guy is definitely not for the kids...all of the situations are adult and sometimes are borderline risque (which got the series cancelled, unfortunately). The network censors and committees have no idea what they've done...they threw away a gold mine. While it could never truly replace the Simpsons, Family Guy was well on its way to becoming the new dominant animated series on Fox. The Simpsons have been stale the last few years...Family Guy breathed new life into prime time animation that you just don't see anymore. It's too bad, really. In any case, don't pass up the opportunity to own every episode on DVD!! Fans will love to have all episodes on dvd, I know i'm looking forward to it. And even if you've never seen it, then take my advice: Pick it up anyway! You will not regret it! The extra features are a little bare bones, but it doesn't matter. The show has enough laughs to keep you coming back...even watching the same episode twice won't lessen the amount of laughs you get from it. Definitely a great idea to put this classic but short lived series on DVD!Read full review
This set contains the first and second seasons of Family Guy. I personally find the show really funny and clever, with great characters who are more than one dimensional. These early seasons are some of my favorites in the series, although the artwork isn't yet as polished as it will be in later seasons. To me it's interesting to watch a show refine and develop it's style though. The set does seems to have DVR issues, especially in the first couple episodes, but personally it's a minor complaint compared to the entertainment value

I bought this 4 DVD set, used, but in great condition. We laughed until our sides hurt. Every DVD is loaded with hours of hillarious episodes of Peter, Brian, Stewie, Chris, Meg, and Lois doing the things they do best, making us LAUGH!! Not to mention all the other characters in the show. This has got to be my favorite show, hands down the funniest show on television. Since I bought Seasons 1 & 2, I have also bought seasons 3, 4, and 5. I can't wait for more! We sit and watch these over and over and never get tired of them. I can't wait for the new seasons to start!!! Excellent, wonderful, side-splitting comedy, a must have for any collector!!!
