Which episodes do you avoid watching again if they come up? For me I think it's the Thanksgiving one with Stan's half brother, I just remember it being particularly awful. Plus the requisite American Fung.

Bad blood was great, what the gently caress. American fung was god awful.

And the house being a pumphouse for the fountains. And a whole day of running away not being enough to get off his land. Yeah no that was a good episode.

I literally just skip Season 1 and then power through, even the weak episodes almost always have a good gag every couple minutes

I think I only watch from after the Saudi Arabia two parter. Looking through Wikipedia's list of episodes for ones I don't like, there's a few that I don't think I've ever seen going by their descriptions. "When a Stan Loves a Woman" doesn't sound familiar to me at all.

AD works like Buffy for me. Not every episode may be good, but every episode has a couple of fantastic moments in it.

I normally skip the Stan Goes to Prison episode, it has its moments but it’s sandwiched with a bunch of other “Stan experiences a thing, becomes obsessed with it.” Episodes and its on the weaker side of the scale.

I binge watch the entirety of American Dad on Hulu all the time and I particularly dislike the episode where Jeff is in outer space, The Majestic? Just boring overall to me.

In the episode where they were talking about Sprint or whoever's coverage (I think the conspiracy episode) I think they actually left the coverage dead zone in that west virginia quiet place or whatever it's called. It's an odd attention to detail. Someone would have to screenshot it.

There is like 5 or 6 episodes I skip when they come up, but the only 2 I remember right now are the Native American Thanksgiving with Stan's brother, and the one where Stan wants to be a best man Luis' wedding.

Some bad opinions on bad episodes bro. I actually encourage it because I'm looking over the episodes and trying to think about which ones I hate and there are... insanely few? Fung seems to be the major go to. And some of the early ones people don't care for. I'm going to give it a once over later today. There will be bad blood has an awesome title and is solid though and I swear to god....

American Fung is great in my opinion, and not even close to how bad My morning jacket is. Stan forgets his anniversary so he gets Francine committed and ends up getting lobotomies with a power drill. It touches on how they try to write in a new main character for a show and have them solve the an easy problem. I kinda like the live action part because Fung kinda comes off as he could make the show work butttt he just sells the show for a profit to some guy who changes everything. I also like the talent show at the hospital.

Morning Jacket is up there in the avoid box, as is pretty much any Reginald heavy episode.

After season 10 I stopped watching this show for 2 years, kept meaning to come back to it and finally did this weekend and it just makes me laugh and laugh. How is this show still so funny after so long? I remember I just used to let it run on Netflix in the background, the humor in the show just keeps working on me. Not sure what my favorite bit in season 11 is yet but I'm partial to the Roger persona whose twin brother isn't Roger but their mother is also Roger, and the CIA's plan to get Stan into the baseball stadium.

Yea, having Haley date Regonald was one of the few missteps the show has made. And I always get a kick out of the end of American Fung https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nlsO6r0sfr8

Outside of the first season which is kinda fun in the same way season 2 of the simpsons is, I can honestly say there's less than a hand's worth of skipable episodes. And even then, they're usually alright.

Because the whole "Hayley and Reginald date" subplot is very poorly written and irritating and it turned people off the character. Like, the scenes he's in where he's NOT dating Hayley are great (Him on his boat, him fighting Bollock in a field), but people mostly associate him with one very unfunny subplot that lasted way longer than it should have and drags down every episode it's featured in.

I liked the first season. They definitely relied too much on being "political" over funny, but I think it's pretty solid if you can distinguish it from the subsequent seasons.
