cleveland show has been shitcanned (yay) and I think seth is working on some flintstones live show so he should be busy enough to leave AD alone.
I loved the episode, pretty ballsy not to have any of the regular cast on and all the aliens looked great. Ghost Jedi Sinbad is awesome, if they spin anything off it should be the adventures of Space Jeff and Jedi Sinbad, as they search for a way back... HOME

Weird, I thought this episode was by far the worst one ever. Fucking terrible, none of it was funny at all.

Its an episode that people will either love or hate, like "Blood Crieth Unto Heaven"
I, at least, respect AD for taking chances and being more bold in their story telling. Personally, I never cared much for Jeff as a character, so I had very little emotional investment in this episode. I still give it a B+ because it had a lot of good jokes but the overall concept could have been a lot better if they stayed away from the such oft-recycled trope as "prove your love". I literally thought I was watching a Futurama episode but with none of the Futurama's emotional heft.
I was hoping they would do something really outrageous with Jeff as it would be one character that I dont think anyone would particularly miss if he had died or just been away for a long time.

I just now watched that Jeff on the spaceship episode.
Uhhhh... this show is just starting to get weird. It felt like that entire 20 minutes existed so that they could do a pseudo Pink Floyd tribute sequence. That part was actually well done. Easily the best part of the episode. But it was just weird.
I mean Sinbad. Really? And his dying request is "clear my browser history". That's Family Guy crap. I really do hope that McFarlane hasn't fucked this show up.
There used to be a pretty consistent tone to American Dad, and it was almost always grins if not belly laughs. It seems to be fluctuating wildy in tone this season. I dunno. Maybe it's so established at this point that they're giving a lot of different people writing/production opportunities and taking some "creative" risks. Some of their best episodes have been risky -- but they've also been funny, which is something they're not gonna get with Seth's two jokes.

This was an interesting episode, but yeah it really wasn't funny at all, was it? It told a story and such, but... not really funny at all.

"Lost in Space" had some decent jokes, but it became a bit more serious for one episode. Nothing wrong with that. I rewatched it yesterday actually and it grew on me more and more. I thought Sinbad was great and quite funny and the Wax Fang score was fantastic.
The finale was pretty good. I always liked Klaus and its nice to get a Klaus-centric episode. I dont think they had one in 3-4 years
P.S. I've been scouring the internet to figure out what song was played during the montage when The Majestic shows the good memories of Jeff and Hayley but haven't been able to figure it out.

That's what I thought, but "At Sea" is the slow haunting track in the beginning when Foster shows Jeff around the slave areas.
Any other ideas as to what it might be?

Wax Fang has scored the 150th episode of American Dad which airs Sunday May 5th at 9:30/8:30c on FOX. The episode features several songs from Wax Fang's back catalog, a sneak peak of their forthcoming album, The Astronaut, as well as original music produced specifically for the show.
Mike Barker, American Dad's co-creator, writer, and executive producer, says of the episode "Wax Fang's music ended up informing so much of the tone and the story, that having Wax Fang compose the score for the episode not only made sense, it was absolutely essential."
I found that on their website, so it may have been a song composed just for that episode.

I was pretty drunk. AD is amazing, the rambo episode with the grill cheese reference is still one of my favorites

family guy has been shit canning itself lately. It hasn't been so good for awhile but this week is all new low.
AD, meanwhile, is still rocking.

I was told American Dad has been canceled by FOX and picked up by TBS or something for next season?
