Aw man, the "at least one use of the word poo poo pet episode" was a fun running gag in the TBS era, but other than that Hell yeah four more seasons!

The end of that episode is still one of the grossest things I've ever seen.

It's a big gross man! On a toilet! Eating oysters? From a garbage bag?

Which came first, this episode , or the very similar one from Kimmy Schmidt?

If I had a nickel every time a sitcom did a plot where a women's fitness class is secretly a cult run by a disgusting man hidden "Wizard of Oz" style, I'd have two nickels..

And you know how the rest of that meme goes.

Early season weirdness/Mid-00's "Just saying 'rape' is as good as a real joke" humor.

You are an odd fellow, but I must say... you throw a swell shindig.

I haven't actively watched the Fox seasons since the show came out and I'm going back and doing a watch-through. It's neat to see how many good plots and character traits in the later seasons got spun off of one-off gags, like Barry saying he walked in on his parents doing S&M, or Roger discovering chocodiles.

However, the episode where Roger discovers disguises so he can go out in the world is in direct contradiction to everything we know about his character.

Clearly pre-persona Roger was just himself a persona that he got sick of the rest of the family not understanding.

Perfect retcon. "The experience of escaping Area 51 with Stan...the terror, the relief, the camaraderie! It was like a drug! I simply had to go method, I had to live the fear of discovery.

Definitely Taco Bell

Course Roger needing to disguise himself is definitely still important, heck we've had the opening interrupted twice because of Roger flubbing a disguise(insert Two Nickels meme here)

Noticed some background stuff in The Longest Distance Relationship. First in the restaurant with Hayley and Millionaire Matt Davis you can see Chuck White in the background. Then when they get to the future you see Scott Grimes walking outside of the Smith house.

You know know how American Dad loves to do highly specific parodies? Like how the episode "You are here" is based on that one documentary about a dead mall? Well I recently started listening to this novel FantasticLand on Audible and a few chapters in I realized "Oh! This must be what the American Dad episode Familyland is based on!" because they essentially have the same basic plot where an amusement park is cut off from the rest of the world and the people trapped there break off into individual tribes based around different areas of the park.

Except here's the twist: Familyland aired in 2014 and Fantasticland was published in 2016. So there's a chance the novel was actually inspired by the American Dad episode rather than the other way around.

Fantasticland is also a really good story so far and I recommend it, it does the world war z thing of having the narrative told retroactively through a series of interviews with different people. The perfect novel for anyone who's ever wanted one very specific episode of American Dad to be longer and played straight as a horror story as opposed to a comedy.
