(both epguides.com and tv.com formerly listed these three episodes as "Stewie B. Goode", "Bango Was His Name-Oh!", and "Stu and Stewie's Excellent Adventure", all three of which make up the movie, the titles are even given in the end credits.)

Nope...it'll be released at the end of September, around the 27th. Stay with me on this one.
A few months before FOX announced new episodes, they were going to release a Family Guy movie, still straight-to-DVD. This was c. late-2003.
When FOX announced the new season of FG (c. spring-2004), the movie was put on the back-burner, then scheduled as a three-part episode. They eventually went back to the original plan of releasing the three-parter as a DVD.
