Family Guy Volume confusion?
First of all, why oh why do they have to be released in volumes. If volume one contained season 1 and season 2,then call it season 1 and season 2. Ok-here's my question. I bought V1,V2 and V3 from R2 and then I bought V5 from R1. So does that mean I have them all in order or am I missing episodes? I went to wikipedia and came away more confused than ever.

Yeah, for some reason they've decided to make it confusing as hell. But yeah, you are missing episodes, specifically all of season 4. You need to either buy R1 sets V3 and V4 or R2 sets V4 and V5. Good luck!

I could be wrong, but I think that the R1 US dvd sets are in volumes (parts of multiple seasons) and all other regions are Season sets.

Ex: "Season 7" in R2 is actually some remaining episodes from Season 5 and then the first 8 of season 6.
vmars is correct, you are missing the entire 4th season currently. You can get it by buying either Volume 3 and Volume 4 in R1 or "Season 4" and "Season 5" in R2.

Region 2 Volume 3 ends with Jungle Love(season 4 part A). Region 1 Volume 5 starts with Stewie Loves Lois. That means that episodes #64 thru #77 should be on Region 1 Volume 4. Episodes #78 ,#79 and #80 were on the straight to dvd release.

Region 2 Volume 1 only has the first 14 episodes where Region 1 Volume 1 has the first 28 episodes. Thats what I'm missing(I think). I will just buy Region 1 Volume 1 and throw Region 2 Volume 1 in the garbage.

Why would you do that? Your R2 sets 1 and 2 have all the episodes from the R1 set 1. All you need to buy is R1 sets V3 and V4 or R2 sets V4 and V5 and you'll have the official Family Guy Seasons 1-4.

Turns out that v2 and v3 are R1.

The people at Fox have been screwing around with these releases. Now they even want to sell the "banned" episode from last season as a separate release.

Imagine how "The Simpsons" would have been released had FOX thought of "volumes" before they started releasing that series :-P

Has anyone bought the newest sets from Best Buy with the Bonus Episodes? I believe it's Vol 8 and American Dad Vol. 5. Each claims to have episodes of FG not released.

Both sets are available in exclusive versions with a digital copy disc of 4 episodes. Other than that disc, the sets are the same everywhere.

I understand that. I am more intersted in which episodes they are since they are making the claim that they are never-before-released. Are they episodes that will be included in future releases?

Don't know for sure, hate the shows, someone into them will likely know more. I was just trying to help.
