>20 seasons>still decent and hasn’t plummeted to Simpsons levels yetHow the fuck do they do it?
>>152690756Easy they focus more on comedy than virtues signaling and pandering.
Because the show has hinged on a writing team who are seemingly allowed to do whatever the fuck they want.I think the Rapture episode caused that.
>>152690756>still decent and hasn’t plummeted to Simpsons levels yetthey did that several seasons ago when they made stan a le wacky peter griffin and pretty much got rid of his rigid conservative views
>>152690756Her tits need to be bigger.
>>152690756Characters
Everything Seth McFartcunt made after Johnny Bravo is a warcrime on comedy. The absolutely most braindead, dumbest, unfunny pure fucking cancer ever produced. I'd rather watch the worst episode of Angela Anaconda on repeat than a single second of this talentless fuckstick's attempt at comedy
>>152691975>I'd rather watch the worst episode of Angela Anaconda on repeat than a single second of this talentless fuckstick's attempt at comedyWoah, anon, chill. I know you don't like Seth MacFarlane's work and that's totally fine, but don't threaten yourself with Angela Anaconda, that shit is worse than waterboarding.
>>152690756There's more you can do with high conservative CIA agent, crazy mom, gay alien, and the rest than what once was a crazy out of control family but is now just a normal family but yellow>>152691975https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeAEWD6M28A>Anon would rather watch this than Road to Rhode Island
>>152690756As I understand it, the writing room on American Dad, while smaller, has seen a low turnover rate since it moved to TBS. In other words, the writers are not afraid of being fired, nor are they being replaced to chase new trends. That must give them the freedom to remain true to their vision, however one feels about that vision.
>>152692140Doesn't the Simpsons team literally just keep rotating people out until they get something good and only keep them until they make a bad episode?
>>152691975Orville is good
the newest seasons are strange. only two episodes in and it feels like they are trying to return to the pre-tbs seasonsits a lot less loud
>>152692090>Anon would rather watch this than Road to Rhode Islandeasily. Those 26 seconds still have more cohesion and relevance than the retarded cutaway "LOOK AT ME celebrity reference!!!!" that are the equivalent of a 4 year old screaming SIX SEVEN a million times a day.
I wish Seth McFarlane had made his flight
>>15269075620 seasons of American Dad and THAT'S the pic you chose to open with?
>>152692241Important to note that Seth MacFarlane is directly involved it. People treat Family Guy or American Dad as if Seth actually writes the episodes and jokes when he's pretty much just a voice actor most of the time.
>>152690756milk.
>>152690788FPMRP
>>152692016>>152691975I like Angela Anaconda. : )
>>152690756American Dad episodes verge on being shitposts, which isn't a bad thing when it's a unique case. It'd be a bad thing if American Dad was the most popular show ever and everyone else was copying it, but they're not.
>>152690756they pander to coomers. have you seen the latest episode? it's not subtle at all.
The only bad episode I would say is the rodger focused one where it's about how he started with disguises, but one stinker out of fucking how many is pretty good
>>152693945Fuck off, demon of the abyss.
Unlike Family Guy, The Simpsons, Bobs Burgers, and Rick & Morty, every one of the main cast can carry an episode. Even if Stan has the best ones.
>>152690756The TBS era was pretty shit for some of the time.
>>152690756The wacky exaggerated I'M GOING BANANAS or everyone flying into the kitchen to squeal about something humor got a lot more obnoxious to me in the later seasons.
>>152692321this + the new animation gives me the creeps
>>152692321Yeah, don't think TBS would do a couples therapy episode with Stan constantly being on a mission. I honestly can't remember the last time he was on one that took him away for more than a day.
>>152693945lol no u dont
>>152690756>>20 seasons>>still decent and hasn’t plummeted to Simpsons levels yetHey, I like American Dad, it's fun and all but has it ever reach the heights the Simpsons did during their prime?
>>152696022Most shows don't reach Simpsons heights but most shows don't also reach Simpsons lows.
>>152692795Why DOESN'T he still write for either of these shows exactly? Nigger you created the show, write episodes for it. You voice practically all the fucking characters, why are you voice acting this stuff you have no say in supposedly. I know the answer is money and he doesn't own it the network does, but what the fuck?
>>152696270he wanted to work on other things i think he had more input in family guy than people give him credit for, up until he started working in moviesbut for american dad, once family guy revived he had to step away from that to focus on his original show
>>152695082The phoned in script gags like “and then there was an explosion and a tank and a shark” get under my skin the most but I still find new American Dad watchable and entertaining
>>152694467I hadn't thought of that. Can't tell you how many times I've groaned whenever it's a Gene Belcher or Summer Smith episode.
>>152696614Honestly I can only tolerate Louise episodes. Tina episodes are usually boring or just a slog to get through.
I liked the second episode's ending. I expected Logthario to die, but he survived and I like that because he's Cajun. What a pleasant suprise :)
>>152690756They're kind of like the Rolling Stones. They don't shoot for highs or really suffer lows: they just maintain
>>152694467Hayley and Klaus cannot carry episodes
>>152696894Blew my mind when I realized Rick and Morty is just a lesser, more pretentious American Dad. The latter is the more consistently funny sci-fi family sitcom >>152696897I beg to differ
>>152690839this part /co/ is full of fags who eat this shit up though
>>152692381F'd up thing to say anon
>>152696270Why should he be forced to never move on? Christ you fucking people are demented expecting people to do whatever you want at all times.
>>152690756>How the fuck do they do it?wouldnt know i stopped after the fetish episode
>>152697737>the fetish episode>implying there was only one fetish episode
>>152697737>>152697918This. You gotta narrow it down a little
>>152697737Are you talking about the episode where Francine likes getting spanked? Pretty gay, anon
>>152697737>>152699134This is false info. They're not fetishes, just things that make her get out of control and start doing crazy shit
>>152690756easy, it was never funny to begin with
>>152699583
>>152699621suck a fart out my ass troon
Why do Redditors think that circlejerking the lesser known show than Family Guy will make them appear high-IQ? American Dad became unwatchable around the same episode count The Simpsons did.
>>152690756>hasn’t plummeted to Simpsons levels yetBecause it was below Simpsons levels from the start
American Dad feels that it has actual jokes unlike Family Guy or Simpsons, which feel dumber in their attempts. I think the absurd plots are more justified in American Dad because of characters like Roger so it never feels like it's jumped the shark.
>>152692321That’s a good thing
Is it true they killed off Rogu?
>>152692599I hope see more Francine using the toilet. Unlike Lois where she gets two.
>>152700899No he was there in the first new ep.
>>152692599>>152701329tf is wrong with y'all
>>152690756could we please start putting AMERICAN DAD in the title of American Dad threads please
>>152693945Wait seth made that? Seriously? I loved watching that show with my sister. Great times great times
>>152695215The FOX-style alignment of the end credits is throwing me off after a decade of TBS-style credits
Episodes were pretty hit and miss after the move to TBS. But the hits made up for the misses.
>>152694235You can't blame them for giving the people what they want
>>152693945me too :D
A lot of the episodes are just barely decent but they make up for it with a few outstanding ones.
>>152700063Go watch some Disney Plus exclusive Simpsons content and come back to us on how you feel about that.
https://youtu.be/7WrO-Te66RE?si=-cQaPHSfJUp91X63Why was this so good
>>152690756Eh, the show DID go downhill after they moved to TBS but even then it has an advantage that other zombie shows don't have, there's still some gems every now and it's never offensively bad. That alone puts it above other zombie shows.
I’m so happy that this show is going back to the Fox era comedy. It’s what made the show so great
>>152705730I'm more partial to the first song in that episodehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cY09iIrAVGk
>>152707485Francine drops that song a bit, it's just one line but it sounds awful. Krampus was great
>>152704109BAAASED
>>152697580Poor Cleveland...
>It's a Francine and Jeff episode
I tried watching the pregnant Gwen episode and I dunno, it just doesn't click like the older episodes
