I was watching simpsons at 0.75 without knowing until a scene where homer and bart were getting back massages at a hotel and the noises they were making were super drawn out like a youtube poop

Rabbit Ears.

Although Jeff and the Dankass Weed Factory is a close personal favorite.

Honestly last season nailed it with amazing episodes like 'Enter Stanman', 'Hamerican Dad!', 'Wild Women Do' (that goddamn list of things to keep Francine away from) and 'Eight Fires'.

You're right that 'Rabbit Ears' is a standout episode, though.

Love what they're doing with Tuttle's character.

My top ten list from last season (which according to Wikipedia technically isn't even over yet):

1. Rabbit Ears (I've yet to meet a person who doesn't love this one, even people who normally don't watch the show.)
2. The Eight Fires
3. Enter Stanman
4. Stompe Le Monde
5. Jeff and the Dank rear end Weed Factory
6. Hamerican Dad!
7. Shark!?
8. Wild Women Do
9. No Weddings and a Funeral
10. An Irish Goodbye

All bangers.

Rabbit Ears is legitimately good television, and absolutely one of the best episodes of the entire series.

I hate Weed Factory though, but I generally hate stoner comedy, so that’s on me.

I'm not normally a huge stoner comedy person either, but from some reason all of the jokes just worked for me in that one. I think Snoop dogg's delivery of the lines helped a lot.

I'm gonna come out and say I am the Jeans: The Gina LaVetti Story is one of the best. It's weird as hell, and Klaus having a breakdown about Gina being Roger is such a fantastic gag.

Just one more thing!
I forgot to keep up with this show for a couple years until last year around this time when I started up again and You Gotta Strike For Your Right became one of my favorites for the B-plot where Francine keeps making increasingly ridiculous leaps of logic and being consistently 100% correct.

A friend of mine and myself saw that episode and then decided to watch American Dad in reverse order and it was a fun time, I think we started last April and finally finished up in like December.

Got nothing better to do, so my fav episodes from each season (based on the American Dad fandom wiki):

S1) Finances with Wolves
S2) The Best Christmas Story Never
S3) Frannie 911
S4) The One That Got Away
S5) Bully for Steve
S6) A Piñata Named Desire
S7) Stan's Best Friend
S8) Lost in Space
S9) Familyland
S10) Morning Mimosa
S11) The Unincludeds
S12) The Long Bomb
S13) Persona Assistant
S14) Wild Women Do

this was a virtually impossible task honestly

I'm going to do this too! :)

1) A Smith in the Hand
2) Black Mystery Month (American Dad Afterschool Special a close second)
3) Oedipal Panties
4) The One That Got Away -- just pure classic
5) In Country...Club (god, what a great season -- Cops & Roger AND A Jones for a Smith)
6) The People vs. Martin Sugar
7) Wheels & the Legman and the Case of Grandpa's Key
8) American Stepdad
9) News Glance with Genevieve Vavance
10) A Star Is Reborn
11) Criss-Cross Applesauce: The Ballad Of Billy Jesusworth
12) Kloger
13) Death by Dinner Party, but it doesn't seem fair to vote on this because I haven't seen all of the episodes from this season
14) Rabbit Ears, ditto but I can not imagine any of the episodes I haven't seen are better than this because holy poo poo

this show has way better jokes and all but really the biggest thing that's constantly notable compared to the other Family Guy kinda stuff is the voice acting is so much better.

Stan's weird pained interjections are so good.

One of my favorite gags is when Evil Barry is trying to do Regular Barry''s voice. It's clever enough on it's own, but it's also fun watching an actor try to create an "off model" version of a character's voice.

It's so great when the same voice actor does an imitation of one of their characters as another character. The scene in the plane episode where Roger dresses up as Stan and imitates him is pretty funny.

I like in the wrestling episode where Roger is doing a Russian accent and by his own admission, “drifts into a little Dracula there toward the end” of one of his rants. It sounded like an unscripted take and it was so loving funny I’m glad they left it in.
