Last month, I was clicking through the ‘Gold Box’ section at Amazon just to see what useless junk they were pitching this time when I saw it: The Family Guy Box Set. Within 5 minutes I had ordered it and pre-ordered volume 2.
My favorite moment is the beginning of the episode that details Brian’s trip to LA, where they do a spoof of just about every TV cilffhanger ever. They get everything perfect and it’s absolutely hillarious.
I’m not sure which aired first, but Space Ghost Coast to Coast did something similar. A little longer, but equally hilarious (they worked in the one thing the Family Guy missed: pregnancy. Actually, they worked it in three times.)
My favorite moment was Peter’s speech at the end of the smoking episode: I’ll tell you what’s not funny; killing strippers. Strippers are people too; naked people who may be willing to pleasure you for a price you negotiate later behind the curtain of the VIP room. Besides, there’s no need to kill 'em, cos most of them are already dead inside.

Brian, there’s a message in my Alpha-Bits! It says, “ooooooooooooo!”
BRIAN
Peter, those are Cheerios.
If you are in ze Los Angeles area, und vould like to be in a studio audience of “Hitler!”, dial, two-vun-three, UNDZEIBENFLAUGENHAUPTMANNZWICKEN!!!
Stewie, after he gets the multiracial family’s children fighting amongst themselves: “Dance, you puppets! Dance!!”
Or when Peter remembers the time he ran over a cat. Segue, and you see a production of “Cats,” and suddenly Peter’s car crashes onto the stage and runs over one of the cast.
Rickjay! that Hitler quote is so funny, if you look online (wink wink) you can find the videoclip of that small segment!
The German words, were an actual sentence, “Du Werdest Eine kranken schwester brauchen!” That means ‘You will need a nurse’ acording to babel fish translation.
The whole running joke about the evil monkey in Chris’s closet. And then it explains how the moneky wasnt always evil.
Cut to suburban monkey coming home from a hard day’s work. “Honey, I got the Johnson(?) contract!” Monkey walks into room to find his wife humpin someone else.
Aw man, I was this close to pissing myself when I saw that
