The Short: Family Guy's latest DVD release features "Road to the Multi-Verse" a fan favorite episode and plenty of other hilarious content. The DVD release should have please the show's giant fan base.

Unedited and uncensored, Family Guy Volume 8 has hit the shelves and fans of the series couldn’t be happier. The set is filled with extras that every fan should appreciate and is also loaded with extra scenes in each show that are aired the way they were intended to be. This set of discs isn’t an amazing one in terms of commentary, deleted scenes, or just the ‘normal’ episodes, but collectively it’s a solid set that will leave Family Guy fans satisfied.

The good is easy; there are several great episodes in this volume, including a fan favorite- “Road to the Multi-verse” which has Stewie and Brian on another great adventure- but this time through multiple dimensions. It’s one of the best episodes that this team has made just for its creativity, and it’s a Family Guy favorite.

The extra features good but not great. There's still plenty of things for you to dig through. There’s a karaoke feature that collects songs from all of the seasons and puts them in one feature. There’s also a behind the scenes look at the making of “Road to the Multi-verse” and there are several commentaries (though not on every episode) for you to watch, listen, and enjoy.

Ranking the top five episodes from the volume:

1.     "Road to the Multi-verse": Stewie and Brian get launched into multiple dimensions and try to find their way home. The biggest pops here come from the different forms of animation in some of the dimensions.

2.     "FOX-y Lady": While not an amazing episode the amount of extra content in this episode compared to the original, broadcast episode is insane. It’s a good episode with lots of extra content and that’s why it hits number two here.

3.    "Brian’s Got a Brand New Bag": As the series progresses, Brian gets picked on by the family more and more. He’s slowly becoming the grown up version of Meg. In this episode, Brian falls for an older woman… she’s even older than he is in dog years… she’s a much older woman.

4.    "Hannah Banana": This series has always made fun of Disney, and they finally conquered their latest/biggest craze. There are several over the top, just wrong, moments, but that’s what Family Guy’s about.

5.    "Spies Reminiscent of Us": Dan Aykroyd and Chevy Chase guest star in an episode that features Brian and Stewie reenacting the hit movie from the 80’s. Lots of hilarious moments and it was cool that Aykroyd and Chase were part of the show.
