Chances are that Family Guy, like Futurama (and The Simpsons before it, where video tapes were available in New Zealand in 1992 and Great Britain in 1993 but not in the USA until, if I remember correctly, 1997), will go through years of syndication before appearing in any sort of video in the USA.

"What about 'Friends'?" Actually, Warner Home Video all but promised that they would be releasing "Friends" in season box sets...then announced that "because of syndication and other reasons, we are limited to another 'Best Of' set".

"What about, say, 'The X-Files' or 'Ally McBeal'?" Those are hour shows, which are notorious for not being nearly as popular as half-hour shows in syndication, so they don't lose as much money by releasing video sets "early".
