New episode was pretty good, the b-plot was kinda whatever but that's fine, they didn't spend that much time on it comparatively.

I was expecting that scene of Stan trying to eat the sandwich to be a lot more explicit and disgusting.

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?

The broadcast schedule for just about everything is so random and weird lately that it's not surprising. I forget to check out even the shows I like until after they're out for a while because god knows when anything comes out anymore.

I thought the two most recent episodes were extremely meh. The giraffe one almost felt like bad American Dad fan fiction, and the wraith girlfriend one just didn't do anything for me.

every so often people ask what episodes they should show people to get them into the show, so I came up with a few "American Dad starter packs". Each set of episodes has a theme or an "arc" to them that can be used to ease a person into the show and its style of humor.

Pack one: “Roger’s Personas”
Episodes: Fellow Traveler, The One That Got Away, Jenny Fromdabloc, Shallow Vows, The Dentist’s Wife, Ricky Spanish, Persona Assistant
Description: For people who want to better understand why and how Roger the alien is like 300 different people at the same time and society as a whole just rolls with it.

Pack two: “Let’s get Spooky!”
Episodes: Rabbit Ears, Echoes, Hot Water, Enter Stanman, You Are Here, Exquisite Corpses, Salute Your Sllort, Family Time, The Three Fs, The Witches of Langley, The Pleasanting at Smith House
Description: Most American tv shows only do horror themed episodes around Halloween, but at some point the writers of American Dad realized “Wait, we can write episodes with horror elements whenever we want! Even if it’s not Halloween time!” so now we get like 3-4 spooky episodes per season and there was much rejoicing. To be clear: these are just a few of my favorite spooky episodes, I know there’s actually way more than this.

Pack three: “Jeff’s Space Adventures”
Episodes: Naked to the Limit One More Time, Lost in Space, The Longest Distance Relationship, Holy poo poo Jeff's Back!, Bahama Mama, Roger's Baby
Description: Jeff gets sent to space, try to get people to guess how this story arc will begin and end and then see how wrong they are.

Pack four: “Danuta and Nerfer”
Episodes: Faking Bad, "Shark?!, Funnyish Games, One Fish Two Fish, Roger Needs Dick, Beyond the Alcove, Please Please Jeff, Cow I Met Your Moo-ther (this one isn't out yet, but it will be soon)
Description: Hayley has these two friends named Danuta and Nerfer. They started out has a background character (Danuta) and a one-off gag (Nerfer) respectively, but the writers kept making jokes about them and kept bringing them back up and eventually had them move in together and buy a bunch of bats. Why? Probably because their names are hilarious. I know that’s why I like ‘em. Anyway, here’s a few episodes where they’re either mentioned or make an appearance.

Pack Five: “Christmas with the Smiths”
Episodes: The Best Christmas Story Never Told, The Most Adequate Christmas Ever, Rapture’s Delight, For Whom the Sleigh Bell Tolls, Season’s Beatings, Minstrel Krampus, Dreaming of a White Porsche Christmas, Gifted Me Liberty, Ninety North, Zero West, Santa Schmanta, Yule. Tide. Repeat, The Grounch
Description: The Simpsons does the best Halloween episodes, Bob’s Burgers does the best Thanks giving episodes, and American dad does the best Christmas episodes. These are my firmly held beliefs, feel free to fight me in a field if you disagree.

Did anyone else kind of think that the lady Jeff first met who got him into the leggings MLM was going to end up being Roger? I thought it was going to be a call back to how every member of the Smith family has one Roger persona they can't see through. She had a lot of Roger energy (which I guess is just how people naturally act when they're trying to get you to buy into an MLM), but it turned out Roger wasn't at the bottom of the pyramid scheme, he was at the top.
