Taking a humorous approach to the Star Wars franchise, Family Guy Specials season 1 episode 3 titled "Something, Something, Something Dark Side" follows the characters as they embark on a parody of the classic sci-fi movie, The Empire Strikes Back. Beginning on the ice planet of Hoth, the Griffin family takes on Star Wars protagonists; an amusing rendition of Han Solo, Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader.

Stemming from the previous episode, Blue Harvest, this animated parody continues to follow Peter as he takes the role of Han Solo and Lois as Princess Leia. After an inquiry from the Empire that leads the family to flee from the planet of Hoth, they travel to the planet of Dagobah. Here, they seek the guidance of Jedi Knight Yoda, portrayed by none other than Carl the groundskeeper.

Although still following the basis of The Empire Strikes Back, Family Guy Specials season 1 episode 3 provides a fresh comedic take on the storyline, making it highly entertaining for fans of both the show and the original movie.

Furthermore, viewers are treated to an abundance of inside jokes and pop culture references throughout the show, adding to the humor and entertainment value of the episode. The animation style also seamlessly blends with the Star Wars theme, further adding to the hilarity of the show.

Viewers should expect to witness some of the most iconic moments from The Empire Strikes Back altered in Family Guy Specials season 1 episode 3. From the epic showdown between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader to the famous "I am your father" reveal, all the classic scenes are twisted into a comedic masterpiece.

Finally, the episode culminates in an exciting yet hilarious space battle that ensues between the Rebel Alliance and the Empire. As with all parodies, the animators' imagination is let loose, leading viewers to expect nothing but a hilariously absurd finale.

Overall, Family Guy Specials season 1 episode 3 titled "Something, Something, Something Dark Side" is an amusing, entertaining and refreshing take on one of the most iconic movies of all time.
