Product Description
-------------------
The show follows the adventures of lovable oaf Peter Griffin
(Seth MacFarlane) and his hilariously odd family of middle-class
New Englanders. Lois (Alex Borstein) is Peter’s loving wife, a
former Miss Teen Rhode Island who rules the roost but is one step
away from a nervous breakdown. Then there are their kids: frumpy
16-year-old Meg (Mila Kunis), the family’s punching bag;
13-year-old Chris (Seth Green), a kid who doesn’t understand
girls, much less the evil monkey who recently emerged from his
closet; and 1-year-old Stewie (MacFarlane), a diabolically clever
baby whose burgeoning sexuality is very much a work in progress.
Rounding out the Griffin household is Brian (MacFarlane), the
family dog, a member of Mensa with a penchant for dry martinis
and dumb blondes.
During the tenth season, the Griffins and fellow Quahog residents
attend a party at James Woods’ mansion and are embroiled in a
classic "whodunit” murder mystery. Meanwhile, Lois becomes a
local sports hero, and Stewie works for Brian as his literary
manager.

.co.uk Review
-------------
Several seasons in, and the supreme animated comedy Family Guy
continues to thrive. Furthermore, it’s a collection of episodes
here that addresses the common complaint that shows of such
endurance aren’t capable of hitting the heights any more. Because
Family Guy certainly can.
You get 16 episodes for your money in the Family Guy Season 10
boxset, and there’s a strong leaning towards satiating the fans
who have stuck with the show to date. That doesn’t mean that
there’s no room for outsiders, as Family Guy is constantly
accessible. Just that you’ll get extra goodness out of an episode
such as Brian And Stewie, the 150th of the show, if you’ve
watched most of it to date.
Even if you haven’t, though, Family Guy remains a masterclass in
strong comedy writing. It’s genuinely laugh out loud funny, and
the episodes are rich in rewatch value. The only downside is the
slight muddle in the way the box sets are compiled, as this set
actually pulls together episodes from across more than one
season. Yet they’ve not been released on DVD in the UK before, so
on the plus side, you’re not buying the same Family Guy
instalments twice. Spend your money, therefore, with peace of
mind.--Jon Foster
