A new episode airs tonight at 9:30 PM Eastern. Here is the synopsis:
 
Great episode :anime:
Great to have President Obama on the show :anime:
My favorite parts are Klaus getting shot(Good thing it was Stan's Dream) and the Keyboard Cat XD
 
Best episode of American Dad this season. It's too bad the whole episode was a cop-out but it was still entertaining to watch. Stan realizing he can't escape his fate and then coming up with a convoluted plot to clear his name was great. Klaus getting killed had me for a second until I realized he had died before. Maybe this is the new gag for him?
 
To me the show is at its best when Stan overreacts, as that's what got the show going in the first place. So I had a good time, mostly.

Except...Roger was really repulsive tonight. Can't an alien's mind stay out of the gutter for ONE second? I don't even wanna know what he said about Amy Carter that got bleeped.

Also, it shouldn't be so hard to imitate Obama. He has so many abrupt pauses in his speech, all you have to do is imitate Shatner and deepen your voice. Anyone can do this....
 
Well his speech pattern in this episode was somewhat Shatnerian imho. I got a chuckle every time he called Stan "poopy man" though.

Decent episode really. Roger WAS kindof unappealing in this episode with his antisocial behaviour up to 11, and the constant plot moving gone on a bit too far. Poor extended fantasy Klaus though.
 
My favorite part was how Stan would burn down every building he left. But did anyone else feel like this was a waste of an episode since Stan imagined the whole thing.
 
Well, I was a bit relieved that none it really happened. I mean I was like "Hello, the fish is dead! Doesn't anyone care?!" Thank heavens it was all just a fantasy sequence (exactly how long was Stan on that diving board?). You know, that might mean that guy living under the sink is still alive too (Stan seemed so surprised that it was all his imagination that it must mean that guy is real). Somehow, I get the feeling last week's episode was just a warm-up for the season finale if I read the summary of it right. Also to those who were a bit peeved that it didn't really happen, I've got six words for you: Stewie Kills Lois/Lois Kills Stewie.
 
Of course, when it came to that Family Guy two-parter, a "it didn't really happen" cop-out ending was kinda obvious once Part 2 took place.
