Fox has released another standalone Family Guy "movie". This time, it's the season six Star Wars spoof premiere episode.

Official Site: http://www.joinstewiesdarkside.com

Quote: "Fox Home Entertainment has announced Family Guy Presents: "Blue Harvest" which parodies the movie that started it all - Episode IV A New Hope. The season six premiere will be available to own in either a standard ($22.98) or a special edition ($34.99). The standard edition will include more than four minutes of exclusive DVD material, animatics/commentaries, interviews with Seth MacFarlane and George Lucas, an Uncensored Track, and a teaser of the next Star Wars spoof, "Something, Something, Something Dark Side". The special edition will include a 3-D fight scene (with glasses!), a t-shirt, trading cards, an exclusive brochure, and collectible packaging."

Because of the quality of the episdode, or because of some principle that you shouldn't buy DVDs of television shows?

I think that means "four minuutes of the episode that never aired on either Fox or Adult Swim".

Something tells me he's not the only one involved in trying to milk this for all it's worth.

Assuming that "four minutes" does indeed refer to new material in the special proper, and the animatics, commentaries and other extra are also in it, it doesn't sound like any more of a "rip" than any of the previous DVD sets. I've seen every episode, first on Fox (since Super Bowl 1999!) and then on Adult Swim, TBS, my local WB/CW channel, and wherever the hell else it's on now, and I'm still not planning to sell my DVD sets, mainly because of the very same extras that will apparently be on the "Blue Harvest" DVD. Am I missing something here?
