I TRIED TO BAIT THE TXPOL THREAD WITH THE WORLD'S WORST POSSIBLE TAKE AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS STUPID AVATAR.
.... Was that supposed to be a sailor moon costume during the flashback halloween scene?


When stan was a kid? The 80's references could work in a cartoon's floating timeline, but sailor moon?

I can only assume the Dick episode has a joke in it that would be really insensitive right now and that's why it was pulled. I wonder if it has to do with Dick's avatar from the episode where Stan dates Steve.

That's where I knew Danuta from, so I was surprised to see her again later on. Also, I love how uncool Hayley looks compared to them. Like, the others were clearly ready to go to the club, and Hayley looked like she was going to a church dance or something.

Bullock: After your last mission, I felt Dick wasn't big and veiny enough! So I had the boys in the lab slap him up with some gamma rays--

Stan: I've heard of those!

Bullock: yes, they're the original famous rays. Anyhow, what came from our experiments none of us could have prepared ourselves for...

Stan: Gasp! Is that...?

Bullock: YES! HULKING DICK!

HULKING DICK: RAAAAAHHH! Hey, Stan! Neat, huh?

Aw poo poo, Amazon must not have gotten the message about the last minute schedule change (this happens sometimes)! Well, their gently caress up is my gain, I'm cool with shelling out 3 bucks for an extra episode of American dad this week (although that means no new episode next week, but that's future me's problem)

Yeah that's pretty much how I live my life all the time.

I'm not going to give any major spoilers since the episode didn't officially air, but I do have two things to say about it:

1.) It's good, I liked it a lot.

2.) Someone speculated that the episode was pulled because it might be considered offensive given the current climate of protest. While there wasn't anything (as far as I could tell) that could be considered offensive to BLM, the episode does feature someone getting shot, so if the episode was moved back on purpose I would guess that's probably the reason. A little overly cautious, but understandable.

Oh right I forgot about that, in fact going back and checking the Steve shooting scene is way more violent and graphic then the shooting that happens in Roger needs Dick.....welp, there goes that theory. I have no friggin' idea why they aired that episode instead of the Dick one, seriously I got nothing.

I haven't seen it, but according to reddit Stan kneels during the national anthem or at least talks about it. I can understand them not airing that right now, especially if the context it's less than serious.

I'm kinda surprised that so many here would have missed that.

I guess that could be it? Full context: You don't even see him do it, he just mentions that he did it. If that's the reason then the network executives were being REALLY overly cautious.

I don't think it's being overly cautious at all. The nation is at a level of racially fueled civil unrest not seen since the 60s. It's kinda bad taste to have a comedy character have a throwaway line about the most visible form of peaceful protest related to the movement even if it wasn't directly played as a joke.

There's a lot of people dealing with a lot of pain right now and American Dad isn't the appropriate venue to remind them of that right at the moment.

Fair enough, I guess I didn't see it as that bad because the kneeling wasn't portrayed as negative.
