Roger american dad annoying sound11/9/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() I think they just have it in their heads that it's just like Family Guy, and that if you don't like Family Guy you wouldn't like this, but this is actually a very different show than Family Guy is. But I feel like a lot of people don't think American Dad! is a good show.ĭrew: They are wrong. I don't want to watch this." And then sheer boredom and being at home on Sundays made me eventually start watching it, and then I came to love the show. I remember watching the first airing of it, which was a post-Superbowl slot on Fox in 2005, and I was like, "This is garbage. I was very excited to see it in context again.ĭrew: I would not have guessed that this is the episode where that would have occurred, but it sure is. I probably didn't get into it until-I don't know, fifth or sixth season, and I think it was a combination of three things: 1) an ex, 2) my brother being obsessed with Roger, rightfully so, and 3) a joke that is actually in this episode.ĭrew: Yeah, that was weird that you mentioned that joke being on an Adult Swim promo, and then I'm like, "Oh. ![]() Glen: Well, Drew, I guess I was a latecomer to the show. Glen, what is your experience with the "American Father" television series? ![]() The episode is about Francine offering to become a surrogate for Greg and Terry, the anchor husbands who are the neighbors to Stan and Francine, and Stan realizing that his acceptance of gay people has its limits.

I'm Drew Mackie.ĭrew: And in case that intro did not tip you off, today we're talking about American Dad!ĭrew: Gasp. Do you know what that'll do to society? Girls playing with trucks, boys playing with dolls, horses eating each other! Yes, horses eating each other!

I've always said you can't raise normal children in an abnormal environment. But when they try to bring a child into it, I got to put my foot down!įrancine: Well, excuse me, but who are you to say whether they should have kids? Stan: If two men want to open up to each other and share a love more sweet and exquisite than anything a man and woman could ever find together, then that's their problem.
