Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane has been given the greenlight from George Lucas to do his own take on Star Wars, using the characters from Family Guy. The Star Wars "spoof" will open next season, but MacFarlane previewed some of the episode for the Star Wars fans at last month's convention.
The clip is a whopping ten minutes long (the episode will be one hour) and the very beginning of it either borrows a joke from or gives a nod to Spaceballs, with a bumper sticker on the back of Darth Vader's ship. Unfortunately, it's a little hard to hear all of the jokes over the audience, but what you can hear is pretty funny. It looks well thought-out, like something MacFarlane has been thinking about doing for a long time.

as usual with anything related to family guy, i didn't laugh once.
i think seth was just phoning in the jokes, going for easy situations, putting in filler, and dragging out scenes.
wait that's what he always does. so of course people are gonna defend this piece of shit.

Shawn, did you ever think YOU might be the problem? That you're the one with a shoddy sense of humor?
