[catsrulemyworld4ever]

That was one of the most awesome random moments ever. Almost made up for the typical Stan-isn't-a-great-husband plot.

 

[Tyga]

Best/worst episode plot ever?

 

[Kunmui]

J-POP!
They brought in J-POP!

 

[bleeeh?!fur_ever]

Why are American Dad's holiday specials always so hilariously insane?

 

[Oliva Maesfield]

I need that song.

 

[Dr. Robert]

Great episode :anime:
My favorite parts are Steve and friends playing Japanese video games and Cyborg Stan XD The J-Pop was awesome :anime:

 

[Holly =]]

I was underwhelmed. I liked the Mexican-Canadian accent though.

 

[hailie]

A prime time western animated show actully mimicked the music styles of anime. I loved it.

 

[WinterFrost]

Benny Hill chase scenes always make me laugh. Here, it was no different.

That last fight at the Hershy Park was also fun. Gotta love the Terminater death parody.

Dang what was up with Fox last night? I seemed to have no point in watching it on the HD channel until the last act.

I liked this episode. I liked the, umm, I'm pretty new here so I don't know the rules can I say m*sterbation? I liked that joke with Stan, lol.

AS well as Roger and poor Toshi :sad:

Good episode overall.

Just a question, how come every episode this season seems to have a Stan plot-line?

Man the best of the night. I came in a little in the middle so I really didn't understand what steve and the revenge of the nerd gang were doing pity:shrug:. But Stan's parts had me laughing especially Chad....Loweeeeee...... Chad Lowe:Yesssss? I couldn't breathe.

 

[FoRgE]

Considering he's the main character the show is named after, I would assume a focus on Stan is expected for most episodes.

 

[Aalyh.]

You know, the plot of this episode sucked. I mean, totally totally sucked in terms of it being a typical "Stan-is-a-jerk-but-learns-in-the-end-with-a-sincere-i-can-change-speech", but what happened during the middle, and the sheer number of hilarious jokes dealing with Stan and his robot double more than make up for it. I laughed heartily when he just destroyed that Tootsie Roll mascot, Chad Lowe, Augustus Gloop, the internment camp, and Francine's aversion to paying $23.00 for a photo at the Tunnel of Love. Shame really, I would've shelled out the dough for it.

Only other rough spot was Steve and Roger's subplot. So much potential wasted. Had Roger not been there, maybe something could have been yielded from it. Although thankfully we do get to know Toshi's parents (unless they've already appeared in another episode that I didn't see).

Both videos are pretty good, however the first one is the better one.
