Stans balls getting whacked and getting a super high voice was super juvenile but the payoff when he starts singing is phenomenal

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

I still absolutely loathe that aspect of the show, I've said this before but I'd love a good animated sitcom that maintained perfect continuity between episodes and seasons and also did Status Quo changes right

Try Archer and/or Frisky Dingo.


Finally! A win for Klaus!

Also, American Dad has had some amazing B plots, but my personal favorite is "Trapped in a Locker": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-50WW-59Jdk

What's the best b-plot in American Dad? My candidate is the "bottom-tier spaghetti sauce turns the smiths into italians" is mine.

Shell Game is absolutely my favorite TBS-era episode, with Rabbit Ears as like, a 1.5th. They're both my favorite episode, depending on the day.

As for my favorite B-plot? It's

As for my favorite B-plot that hasn't already been mentioned in this thread? The one where Steve & his friends go to space camp, but it turns out to be the one week where they're honoring the administrative staff instead of actually doing space stuff.

Frisky Dingo completely fell apart about halfway through it's last season(literally the moment the Presidential Election arc got dropped), and Archer fell apart during that cocaine season and never recovered

I agree with you about Archer a little bit. They evntually started doing seasons as their own self contained thing which worked well sometimes. The noir one and the tropical island one I thought were good. I'm also biased towards the tropical island season because I love one eye jokes.

I hated the space season. Cheryl was the only good part of it I thought since she's always trying to kill the crew and commit suicide.

I wonder if someone has gone through every episode and documented how much time has actually passed on the show. Not just an episode counting as a day but episodes that take place over a long period of time. Like the Clooney episode takes place over an entire year since it opens with Francine's birthday and ends with her next birthday.

I'm the kind of nerd who loves putting little toys around their work space, and for a long time I've been on the look out for a set of American Dad figurines (which despite how long the shows been on the air has very few toys available). Recently on ebay I came across a set of bendables that had the entire main cast (including Klaus!) and I was like "Oh! That's perfect!" then I noticed that it costs over 700 dollars: https://www.ebay.com/i/373089773012?chn=ps

Yeah, that's a little out of my price range...

See, I thought the Noir and Island ones were the worst ones. The space one was somewhat better than the last two. I’m glad they are going back to regular stuff for the new season. What I’m not sure of is whether or not this is the last season, since the original plan was to stop at season 10.
