Star Wars with occasional sarcasm
I reluctantly expose you to the teaser trailer for the inevitable Family Guy: Blue Harvest sequel:
Fox wasted no time releasing Family Guy: Blue Harvest – it comes out on Tuesday, in two editions – but we’re just now getting word that the Robot Chicken: Star Wars is coming to DVD. In May. Sigh.
Not that it really matters, since you can pretty much watch both specials in their entirety from certain places on the internet. Witness:
Beneath the cut, my choice for funniest Blue Harvest moment.

It’s official: Family Guy’s Star Wars spoof Blue Harvest comes out on DVD January 15th, in two editions: Standard and Special Edition. Both editions feature interviews with Seth MacFarlane and George Lucas and a preview of their next spoof, tentatively titled Something, Something, Something Dark Side.
A Family Guy: Blue Harvest DVD may be out as early as January. It’ll feature an ‘extended cut’ of the A New Hope tribute episode as well as commentary and interviews and perhaps even a little something something in 3-D.
Last night’s Blue Harvest did so well in the ratings that a Fox spokesman said that an ESB takeoff “seems likely,” James Hibberd reports. Oh joy. (Thanks, Stooge!)
Family Guy: Blue Harvest airs aired tonight. It’s set for 9:00pm here, but check your local FOX affiliate to be sure.
UPDATE: I remain unimpressed, but TV Squad seemed to like it. Feel free to post your own thoughts in the comments – Eliz and I have already started.
IGN has four clips from this Sunday’s ‘event.’ However, I’m afraid it’s streaming video and you have to sit through a horrific Old Spice commercial. It froze halfway though on me and I quit, since the funniest thing I saw was a Bush/Cheney bumper sticker. Maybe you’ll have better luck.
