So I don’t know, I’m just in love with this show. It seems to get better with every single episode I see. Stan Smith is probably one of the most hilarious characters I’ve ever seen. The writers have added so much to his character that goes against the backdrop of his Arch-conservative image that is hilarious. For instance:
There’s a scene in the beginning where the gay neighbors Greg and Terry explain how they are going to have a baby by in vitro fertilizaiton. After they explain how it works Stan says,
"I thought I’d seen every episode of Star Trek…Wait! Is this Deep Space 9? Because I won’t watch that. It’s garbage and let me tell you why! One, " Then he gets interrupted by his wife.
But Stan has THE best tangents. There’s also his plain out kookyness. His reading the book “How to Scowl” Was strange, true, but still different.
His “love affair” with the couch was a bit weird, and even worse when he got caught “undressing” the cushion later on.
How about the “fight scene.” “This fight is unbearably campy!”
The writing for this show is so great. First you have my second favorite character, Roger. He’s so self absorbed and melodramatic. He and Stan are great together.
Even the weaker characters will have their moments. Haley is alway good for a laugh when they show her being hypocrytical.
Francine has her moments as well.
But I’ve really enjoyed the show a lot. It’s far better than Family guy to me.
Anyone else fell the same?
I realize that we don’t normally do American Dad! threads here on a regular basis, but I like to bring them up every few episodes…
