Saw an ad for the 09/23 season premiere during one of the repeats last night...it looks like the premiere episode is going to be a complete parody of

Star Wars!

This should be awesome!

(trying to recall from memory, so some paraphrasing here)
Chris (as a stormtrooper) enters Lois' (as Leia) holding cell:
Lois: "Aren't you a little fat to be a stormtrooper?"
Chris: "I'm here to rescue you. I have your R2 unit. I'm here with Ben Kenobi."
Lois: "Ben Kenobi? Where is he?"
Chris: "Not looking so fat now, am I?"

Here's the description, from the Fox press release:

Spoiler

When the power goes out in the Griffin home, Peter decides to educate his family and pass along the greatest story ever toldthe story of Star Wars! After Princess Leia (Lois) comes under siege by Darth Vader (Stewie) and his evil Storm Troopers, C-3PO (Quagmire) and R2-D2 (Cleveland) escape to find the only person who can help the Rebel Alliance. On their quest thorough the desert planet of Tatooine, C-3PO and R-2D2 find extra help in Obi-Wan Kenobi (Creepy Guy), Luke Skywalker (Chris), Han Solo (Peter) and Chewbacca (Brian) and head back to battle the Death Star in an epic intergalactic fight to the death in the "Blue Harvest, Parts 1 & 2" episode of FAMILY GUY airing Sunday, Sept. 23 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

(By the way, "Blue Harvest" was the "cover name" for Return of the Jedi.)

Note that it is an hour-long episode (which, if they show it as one episode instead of two back-to-back ones, makes it eligible in the "hour or longer animated program" category at next year's Emmys) - American Dad has its season premiere the following Sunday.
