Part of

Family Guy Trilogy Collection: Laugh It Up, Fuzzball!

Laugh It Up, Fuzzball: The Family Guy Trilogy consists of three episode specials of the American animated sitcom Family Guy. The episodes are a crossover and parody retelling of the original Star Wars trilogy Star Wars (1977), The Empire Strikes Back (1980), and Return of the Jedi (1983). The first episode, "Blue Harvest" (2007) was created in honor of the original film's 30th anniversary. Due to its popular success, it was followed by two direct-to-video sequels: "Something, Something, Something, Dark Side" (Season 8, Episode 20) and "It's a Trap!" (Season 9, Episode 18), which were subsequently aired on television, in edited versions, omitting most profanity and sexual references. The trilogy was released in its unedited format on Blu-ray and DVD in the United States on December 21, 2010. Its title comes from an insult Han Solo said to Chewbacca in The Empire Strikes Back.
