DVD Review: Family Guy Volume 5

Since I was only sent the final disk of this collection for the purpose of this review, I will not be able to review any of the episodes. I am, however, able to give you a glimpse into the extras contained on the final disk. Family Guy Volume 5 is being released as a three-disk set containing 13 episodes spread across the first two disks along with their commentary tracks, leaving the remainder of the extra features to land on the final disk.

I will refrain from commenting on the audio/video aspect, as the disk I did receive was a promo copy and not a final release copy. I suspect that this is close to, if not the same, as what you will find on the store shelves, but I do not want to mislead. Before checking out the extras, here are is the episode list and commentary participants.
