She’s the voice of Lois Griffin, the woman behind the MADtv character Ms. Swan, and this month she released her one-woman show DVD Drop Dead Gorgeous. She is, of course, Alex Borstein and to help promote her new DVD she put herself up for an interview with us.
Alex talks to us about comedy cocks, working with her husband, and Olympic gymnastics! Oh, and seeing as Seth recently revealed his top 5 Family Guy moments we thought we’d find out Alex’s list. To find out all this and more, go read Drop dead hilarious: the Alex Borstein interview over in our features section.

Last Tuesday Alex Borstein launched her new one-woman show DVD Drop Dead Gorgeous at the ACME comedy theatre in Los Angeles (where Alex started out). The party included special guests Adam Carolla and Seth MacFarlane among others. We’ve got some exclusive photos from the occasion (below) including one of Alex and Seth MacFarlance singing their famously filthy rendition of You Don’t Bring Me Flowers as Lois and Peter.
Drop Dead Gorgeous In a Down-to-Earth Bombshell Sort of Way is out now on DVD, a great Christmas gift for any fan of Family Guy or the wonderful Alex Borstein herself. You’ll find a clip of Alex in her stand-up act over at YouTube entitled Vagina Soap (also available via Alex’s MySpace). We posted some teaser trailers for the DVD earlier today featuring Ms. Swan.

Two new Family Guy DVDs are out today in the UK: Family Guy Season 5 (which is in reality the second half of the fourth season) and the Family Guy Collector’s Pack containing every episode from the first four seasons (although it refers to season 1 to 5 on the box). We are well aware that the labeling of the seasons on these DVDs are confusing, but for some reason Fox in the UK has decided to categorises the episodes differently to Fox in the States.
Originally Family Guy was only available on DVD in the UK and were sold as seasons 1, 2, and 3. Then the States caught up by selling those seasons as two volumes. Since then Fox has opted for global releases, which seems to have resulted in the UK DVDs continuing to be labelled as seasons despite not being complete seasons. UK fans do not need to worry though, as the same episodes are being released on both sides of the Atlantic.
Family Guy Volume 4 (the US equivalent of the UK season 5 release) is out in the US and Canada November 14th. Family Guy Season 5 is out in Australia tomorrow.

According to the TV shows on DVD website Family Guy Volume 4 is out in the US and Canada on November 14 priced $39.98 (US) and $54.98 (Canada). The set will contain the following 14 season 4 episodes:-
Disc 1:
- PTV
- Brian Goes Back to College
- The Courtship Of Stewie’s Father
- Fat Guy Strangler
- The Father, The Son, And The Holy Fonz
Disc 2:
- Brian Sings & Swings
- Patriot Games
- I Take Thee Quagmire
- Sibling Rivalry
- Deep Throats
Disc 3:
- Peterotica
- You May Now Kiss The? Uh? Guy Who Receives
- Petergeist
- Untitled Griffin Family History
There’s also a load of special features, including—apparently—commentry on every episode, although we will believe that when we see it:-
- Commentary on every episode
- A Director’s Life: Debunkingthe Myth
- Peter Shin Draws Stewie
- A Tour of the Family Guy Offices
- 44 Deleted Scenes
- DVD Rom link to more exclusive content
We expect that these episodes and special features will be those found on the misleadingly titled Family Guy Season 5 DVD in the UK that we have been reporting recently. The cover art for the UK version that we posted about earlier this week is likely to be the same on this US release.
More news as we get it…
