Are we sure this is accurate? this says we're on season 19, I'm pretty sure we're either on 20 or 21 depending on who you ask.

Deadline might be confused on the season which is understandable, because of the weird production schedule I regularly forget what the actual season is compared to the production season, but regardless yeah, it's finishing this season on tbs, next season it moves to FOX (and by extension, Hulu)

I didn’t really like this one either. The scenes in the pentagon room were boring. I did like the brainrot meme jokes though.

Guess we aren’t getting our single utterance of poo poo per episode anymore with the move back.

This post too which claims a 3 year pick up from Hulu: https://www.reddit.com/r/americandad/comments/1jgn646/dont_worry_american_dad_is_alive_and_well/

Probably true for the streaming rights to be on Hulu as the Deadline story indicates too.

Oh my God, that's the funniest possible outcome. First new Fox episode needs to open with Stan pulling the "American Dad on Fox" book back off the shelf.

Production Season 19. Fox typically ordered 22 (or more) episodes at a time, but the only aired 20 at most per year; between that and calling its spring 2005 debut "Season 1" they wound up throwing the numbering way off. (The reason that Season 11 was 3 episodes long was because they still had 3 episodes from production season 8 held over they needed to run before the show moved to TBS.)

They picked the perfect meme for that episode, it's incomprehensible unless you're familiar with juvenile slang. It just sounds like nonsense words strung together.

That's a real meme??? :psyduck: I sympathize with the computer.

That episode was weird, like they got the plot finished but forgot to add on the jokes.

If I had a nickel for every time Fox dropped a Seth McFarlane show and then years later brought it back I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice...

DO YOU HEAR THAT? THAT'S THE SOUND OF ME PATTING MYSELF ON THE BACK.


I'm kinda interested in where they are planning on putting it and if it will have a full complement of 20ish episodes. Fox has been bouncing their schedules all around for animation.

One thing that is interesting is that the articles say:

"A key factor in the return to Fox occurred in November of 2024, when Fox reupped its streaming partnership with Hulu to allow the show to contue streaming new episodes on Hulu the day after they air on the network."

That really reads like Hulu was prepared to pick it up directly, but they allowed it to revert to Fox since the streaming agreement meant it would be on Hulu anyways.

They apparently knew in November it's almost certain that the animation wasn't finalized on this episode at that time.

I just started thinking this when it swerved. It was more art than comedy. At the time I was mentally comparing it to The Magicians episode where the PoV character is deaf , but now that I've slept on it I think the BoJack underwater episode is a better comparison.

That should have been Rogu. Like everyone else just confuses him with a Roger persona or something.
