Revisiting this classic after so many years, strange to say but it is a little dated. But still, it holds up. Definitely one of better Star Wars parody out there. I believe this was made back during the height of Family Guy's run. I saw an episode of Family Guy a few weeks ago and it is not as funny as it used to be when comparing it to a decade ago. Anyway, this is worth checking out if you are a Star Wars fan. I thought this was a solo, stand alone film but appertaining this is officially part of the TV show series. Good to know. It is always nice having useless information like that flouting around in my head. Needless to say this generation is doomed. And this end my review.

Okay, most people seem to like Season 6's Ep. 1; and being one of the kids how grew up with SW in the 80's, there is nothing I enjoy more than a good comical shot at SW. I can waste hours watching parodies on YouTube.Having said this, you may understand that I was excited about this Episode, with the fanboy/insider title "Blue Harvest". Yet, after watching the 45 min version on DVD, I feel disappointed and annoyed.Why? The parody has no respect for the original material! You might say that this is the whole point, but no, the best spoofs and parodies emerge from love for the original material. Here, we observe a desire to ridicule it and rip it apart. Many scenes (and especially the score) are perfectly recreated. I was stunned by the accuracy. But mix that with Obi-Wan being a horny, child-molesting pervert, a talking R2-D2 and too many random family-guyesque (for lack of a better term) scenes (e.g., the couch steeling? almost like Hitler on a one-wheeled bike juggling fresh fish; indeed, that is seen in FamilyGuy), and you get this mess.Put another way, a line as "The Force penetrates us!" is only funny when the surroundings are not so perfect that we feel we see the actual thing. Then it is not poking fun at good old memories, it violates these memories. Here, the technical perfection actually hinders the cause (to make fun and entertain) To be fair, there are redeeming moments and ideas: Stewie as DV was awesome, as was the whole discussion about fixing the DeathStar's weakness ("Okay, we get contractors' offers."). Also the cantina dialog "Isn't a parsec a measure of distance?" - really funny.However, if one screws up the final fight between OW and DV that badly (Obi gets an erection and is killed a second later?! What the ...), the overall verdict must be: Almost the worst SW parody ever! (Worst: the Simpsons' Duel of the Fates)

fan of Family Guy? remember the first Star Wars? well then, you are in for a treat - the one liners are gold, the characters are priceless - R2D2 getting high "I could really go for some Tatooine, Wind and Fire right now" takes a sec, but every laugh is a great laugh - well done guys!!watch it at any cost, and enjoycheck out the credits too, the 'Red Leaders' are listed - Mick Hucknell said his one line and was outRed Ochtobah, shtanding by = pricelessall in all, you will all have a pile of lines as your msn tags after watching this - mcfarlane at his best so far

It's unusual that this is just an episode, when Family Guy's Untold Story movie was first a movie, and also a two-parter episode. This movie was the best that Family Guy has ever done in a while. I have to admit, I haven't finished the Robot Chicken's version of Star Wars so I can't compare. But I know that this would have been better.I love how scenes from Star Wars were at times made fun of. Such as the bar scene, with the guy who claims he doesn't like Luke (Chris) even though they have never met.One downfall is that the humor can take the viewer out of the story. That's what you have to be careful about being too funny, heh.I recommend this movie.. or episode for every Family Guy fan. Like the movie says, if you think you know Family Guy.. You don't know Sith. That's not a typo.
