American Dad!

Fully three of the four animated shows tonight dealt with marital problems between the series' central husband and wife duo. This ended up making Family Guy a weird oasis, even if the episode of that tonight had its own problems. I realize all involved don't exactly plan all of this stuff out...

It was a Seth-sational Sunday, according to the Fox promo department, which means that Seth McFarlane, instead of having three-quarters of the animation bloc, instead, had all quarters, and one of them wasn't even animated! Weirdly, though, there was an undercurrent of self-loathin...

The Simpsons’ annual Halloween episode is regularly the precursor to one of Fox’s strongest nights for animation ratings year-round. As much as The Simpsons is no longer the ratings powerhouse it once was, their Halloween special has become something approaching an American traditio...

Is there anything left to say about the Fox animation bloc at this point? Somewhere along the way, we’ve all decided if we’re Family Guy fans or if we think The Simpsons is still worth keeping up with or whether or not we’re down with American Dad, I think, and now that the four shows making...

Grade: D American Dad: On the other hand, despite both shows having How I Met Your Mother gags, of all things, American Dad continues to show off why it's the best thing Seth MacFarlane ever put his name on, despite the fact that every time I say this, ...

The focus was entirely on The Simpsons tonight—no other shows aired new episodes. And having just finished it, albeit a little late, I can't shake the feeling that this was a really odd outing. It wasn't particularly funny, not particularly unfunny, just sort of a mindless exercise. A prett...

Also disappointing: American Dad didn't live up to the winning streak it's been on as of late. While still a good episode, I think one of the problems with "Wife Insurance" was that Stan and Francine remained apart for most of it, even though they were ...

It's good to be back, people, but catching up on last week's episodes and reading Genevieve's blog bummed me out; wouldn't you know it, the one week I'm tied up with Sunday night commitments is when all four cartoons are pretty damn good. I agree with Ms. Koski: Last week's line-up was as close...

American Dad pulled the meta trick as well in tonight’s oddly Steve-centric episode, having Stan remark that it was nice of Steve to acknowledge the rest of the family, even if it was only that one brief scene. An episode devoid of any Roger or Francine sounds some warning bells for me, but “E...

Welcome back, Animation Domination, um, Obama-nations. (TBD.) We had a week off for the World Series—part of a game at least—and we're here just in time for the annual Treehouse of Horror tradition on The Simpsons.But before getting into that…here's a thought. How long is it going to be befor...
