[American Dad!] - Now Available (in some counties) on Disney+'s Star

TexiKen

That was a great episode, made even more noteworthy for being so without really having Roger and Stan in it (that was more like a C plot). Good Taco King joke too, I like it when animated shows recognize their use of food.

I...I am intrigued but haven't queued up any snake bite videos.

Mazzyx

The snake bite thing was great. I would say replace snake bite with any hole you can fall down on youtube.

Still the show. It was amazing.

I just saw the most recent episode. Weird how natural a shrink ray episode is for this show.

Why does Steve have no legs?

Do I want to know?

Was Roger involved?

Viskod

He's on his knees.

one of those cigarettes is not like the other

Jeff's back? Yay!

EmperorSeth

Wow, even for this show, that last Klause joke was DARK. Glad to have Jeff back. I wish they had a way to keep alien Jeff, though. Also, what will become of ghost Sinbad?

RedTide

Jeff is a character named for, appearance is based on and voiced by single person.

That's weird.

KingofMadCows

I knew Jeff was a fake from the beginning because ghost Sinbad wasn't with him.

But it was a great episode. It didn't seem as scatter brained as a few of the other episodes this season. Even though the plot was ridiculous, it was still coherent.

What the fuck just happened?

I don't even understand what I just watched.

I laughed.

but I didn't know if I was laughing in confusion or amusement.

Gim

I missed last week's episode and they didn't play it after tonight's new episode. So. Boo!

KingofMadCows

I'm guessing they ran into some budget problems so they wrote an episode where they can save money by doing some live action filler.

It aired on Adult Swim though last night.

The new one though... That was certainly something.

Heir

That...was an interesting episode? That's about the most positive thing I can say. Meh.

"Stan Smith Is Keanu Reeves as Stanny Utah in Point Breakers "

the episode titles. are hilarious.

TexiKen

New season started Monday!

It was great!

The a-plot was funny and another Stan/Roger conflict with Roger's characters, Steve's B-plot was weird yet totally in character, and the show is just completely giving up on trying to be open to new viewers and just doubling down on the loyal fanbase. It's great.

Go Bazooka Sharks! Never go near a tree when you're holding a gun!

Viskod

I thought that episode was boring and horrible.

It would have been much more interesting if Stans plea at the town assembly was total bullshit because he knew there was something awful buried under that tree that could never see the light of day.

Santa Claustrophobia

I have to agree. The fact that Jeff wasn't in it even makes it feel like a reject episode from when he was gone.

That was the direction I thought they were going in. But I guess that would have been predictable.

I think it could have been funnier if it turned out that Stan's big horrible secret buried under the tree was something almost completely innocuous that only Stan thought was a big deal.
Like maybe he shot and buried a squirrel there when he was a kid with his first bb gun, or maybe a collection of lingerie ads that he collected as a teenager.

Viskod

Or if it was Bullock related.

DasUberEdward

I won't say it was horrible because with what's on TV American Dad is a shining star.


But having said that the standard for the show is very high and this episode missed that mark.

Hexmage-PA

The general consensus I've been seeing for this episode is negative, but having just watched it I personally felt like it was the best episode in a while. I personally didn't care for quite a few episodes last season; in contrast, this one knocked it out of the park for me personally.

Highlights

- "THERE IS NO KEY"
- Pleasant pediatrician abruptly becoming a mad scientist with a thick German accent who apparently worships a serpent god.
- The pedophile tripping over a root and blowing his own head off with his gun.
- Everything to do with Roger as one of the Carconi brothers and Stan's intense confusion with the situation.
- "Oh, I thought you were just a cheap asshole."
- Roger giving everyone free tar, with the child gleefully exclaiming "It burns!"
- Billy
- Neat action sequence at the end

Santa Claustrophobia

Tonight's was much better.

Another great episode!

Water polo Ratatouille works, as does the ship b-plot. Boneyard joke was equal parts funny and creepy.
