Better late than never… Laurie’s review of the Something, Something, Something Darkside DVD/Blu-ray release is here! Be warned that it does contain spoilers.

Thanks to Laurie for the review and to Click Communications and 20th Century Fox for providing the Blu-ray version for review.

• Audio Commentary by executive producers Seth MacFarlane, Mark Hentemann and David A. Goodman, writer Kirker Butler, director Dominic Polcino and actor Seth Green
• Pop-up video
• The Dark Side of Poster Art featurette
• Sneak peek ay Family Guy – Episode VI: We Have a Bad Feeling About This table read

Something, Something, Something Darkside will be released in the UK on 28th December. It is already available in Australia.

A new trailer for Something, Something, Something Darkside has been released to promote the DVD that’s out next month.

The UK Family Guy Season 8 DVD release has hit the shops a week earlier than we expected; in fact it is out in shops as of today! Basically the same as the US Volume 7 release from earlier this year, just confusingly (as always) renamed Season 8; don’t be disappointed as the 13 episodes included are taken from seasons 6 and 7, not the eighth season.

More details have been released about the upcoming Family Guy Star Wars spoof, Something, Something Something Darkside (which is set to be released Worldwide in the second half of December) involving the Special Edition Box Set and Blue Harvest-Something Something Something Darkside 2 Pack and there is an Exclusive Gallery included with this article featuring a collection of new images and cover art from the upcoming release.
