I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

It's kind of an amusing touch that one episode, Francine is happily eating fondue with Barry's parents, and the very next she says she's always hated fondue. I can't help but think things like that are on purpose.

A wizard made her hate fondue (the wizard is one of Roger's personas)

You may joke only within the confines of an episode, or if you must reference the events of another episode you must maintain consistency! Any "jokes" of the "meta" variety (the show contradicting other episodes) is EXTREMELY unwelcome, very cocky, just overall poor form, unseemly.

If these show creators knew how humor worked, they would know that what the characters do and what the viewer understands to be true must match 100%; no-one finds the unexpected humorous, much less a sudden reversal or dismissal of something previously held to be true.

This dovetails so well with Klaus making that burger pizza joint jingle that was filled to the brim with QAnon nonsense. For this season I wonder if the writer's just wade through Reddit as a group to come up with Klaus plots and dialogue.

Edit: Holy poo poo I forgot about that line! Hahaha

I think its because it's been 15 years of the writers/VA's working together (and willing to get weird) is why American Dad can pull of great movements like this. Like the writers just know how good the VA of Kaus is and could really lean into the creepiness with the script. And then Dee Bradley Baker just goes and knocks it out of the park.

I like how she doesn't get worried until the second time he says her name and pauses. If someone said my name and just waited I'd at the very least start to get pissed off

In Klaus's defense he did say he didn't think he was emotionally prepared to call her.

Hayley really should have just let him go with his brick idea, that would have been way less creepy.

This whole season has been insanely good. This, the 15th season of a show that is basically a footnote in the careers of its cast.
