Family Guy - Something Something Something Darkside


The sequel to the Family Guy Star Wars episode/movie "Blue Harvest" is almost upon us and above is the great little poster refelcting the original Empire Strikes Back layout. Wiki description (with a little alteration) is below.

"Something, Something, Something, Dark Side" is an upcoming hour-long episode of the FOX animated series Family Guy and the sequel episode to the Star Wars episode "Blue Harvest". It will retell the story of Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back as "Blue Harvest" did with Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, recasting characters from Family Guy into roles from the film. It is scheduled to air as the season 7 finale, though there has been discussion of a possible DVD release beforehand.

Like the previous episode, several characters from the show will be re-imagined as characters from the film, with some physical modifications to the roles they play (Mort Goldman, for example, will appear as an African American in consideration of his role as Lando Calrissian). Several characters will reprise their roles as they appear in the episode, while some with smaller one-time roles will be re-cast.
