I love Star Wars and Family guy, them combined is pretty clever.

Reccomend this to all Star Wars fans.

What I liked: the opening scroll, Peter's bored story of how Meg was born, "I made a Darth dookie", the Cantina scene, Herbert singing "I've had The Time of my Life", Chris and Peter arguing over Robot chicken at the end, amongst other things.

This is one of Family Guy's most popular episodes, and whilst I like it, I don't really see all the hype. It did have some humorous parts and it was entertaining, but I don't think I would call it one of their best episodes, personally. Still, it is pretty good, and it does get a "B" or so as a grade from me.moreless

When the power goes out, Peter keeps the family entertained by retelling the story of Star Wars, using Family guy characters.

It starts off with C3P0(Quagmire) and R2D2(Cleveland) in an escape pod to deliver Princess Leia's message to Obi Wan Kenobi. They run into Luke(Chris), and they take the message to Obi Wan(Herbert). They go to rescue the princess, along with Han solo(Peter), and Chewbacca(Brain). This was a great parody. Im not a Star Wars fan, but I still loved the episode. It had so many great scenes, such as the coach scene, The time of my life musical number sung by Herbert, and all of the action.

Overall Grade: 95%/Amoreless

Wow i can't believe Family Guy did a horrible 1 hour special using uncreative jokes and hardly even making fun of star wars. (I guess robot chicken did all the jokes) it was like, lets make a one hour episode taking most of the jokes from last week and putting them in this weeks episode. There were hardly any funny jokes and the running gags weren't that great. The worst part of this episode, was the fact that Herbert sang, i had to turn off the tv because i was worried my head might have exploded if i had to hear it for one more minute. when family guy can really make fun of star wars let me know but i won't hold my breath waitingmoreless

This was an insult to Star wars. I hated how Meg was treated, the jokes were terrible, Lois was so annoying and Peter was even more annoying and smug. This is overrated trash,garbage!! Chris was clueless and I hated herbert as obei wan. It should have been Adam west. there was nothing fresh,innovative or creative to make it differant from the original. the only thing I can say positive was that it looked good but that does not save it from saving this show. Stewie was evil again but that was only once. If they do another spoof of another popular movie, COUNT IN MEG!!moreless

- Death Star Officer 1: Any attack made by the Rebels against this station would be a useless gesture, no matter what technical data they've obtained. This station is now the ultimate power in the universe. Stewie (Darth Vader): That is fantastic! Terrific work! So no weaknesses at all, huh? Death Star Officer 1: N- (considers) no. Stewie (Darth Vader): You, uh, you hesitated there. Is there something I should know? Death Star Officer 1: No, it's virtually indestructable, like 99.99 percent. Stewie (Darth Vader): Uh...OK, wouldn't be doin' my job if I didn't ask what's the .01? Death Star Officer 1: Well, I- I mean, there's this little hole, it was kind of an aesthetic choice by the architect, and if you shoot a laser into this hole, uh, the station blows up. Stewie (Darth Vader): Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, that sounds like a pretty big design flaw there. Death Star Officer 1: No, no, no the hole's only two meters across. Mayor Adam West (Grand Moff Tarkin): Well, that's no bigger than a womp rat. Death Star Officer 1: Exactly. And even to get within range of it, you have to skim along this whole trench, it's not a big deal. Stewie (Darth Vader): Well, I mean, I mean, can't we board it up or, you know, put some plywood over it or something? Death Star Officer 1: Well, that would look terrible! I mean, we got to think about re-sale. Stewie (Darth Vader): Re-sale? Wh-what are you talking about? This property is right above Sunset, the value's only gonna go up. Death Star Officer 1: Lord Vader, your inside references to the Los Angeles real estate market haven't given you the clairvoyance to turn a profit on that condo in Glendale, nor has it- (Vader begins choking him with the Force) Stewie (Darth Vader): I find your lack of faith disturbing. That property is in a prime location, twenty minutes to the beach, twenty minutes to downtown! Death Star Officer 1: (choking) There's nothing to do downtown! Mayor Adam West (Grand Moff Tarkin): Enough of this! Vader, release him. Stewie (Darth Vader): As you wish. (releases the officer, who collapses on the table, gasping for air) All right, so we gonna plug up that hole? Death Star Officer 2: Yeah, we can get it done tomorrow if price is no object. Stewie (Darth Vader): Eyuuuuh... Death Star Officer 2: We'll get estimates. Stewie (Darth Vader): Yeah, get estimates, yeah ha, yeah, yeah ha ha, yeah. Edit
