American Dad sucked hard

[JoeGKushner]

Man, this carton was terrible.

It's like they took all the funny stuff in Family Guy and said, "Nope, we don't need that."

First, it's political, and not funny, just stupid views.

Second, the 'unique' characters... well, they have no character.

Thrid, while Family Guy was always a little off and hardly real, to a point you could 'feel' for the characters. I just keep hoping a meteor or something would kill all these people.

Bad show. No cookie for you!

I agree. I was suitably unimpressed.

It was the Antifunny.

It was trying too hard to be like "Family Guy."

Luckily, Family Guy IS coming back soon !

Yeah, it was pretty disappointing. The whole "waiting almost two hours for football to end" also brought up bad memories of Futurama being constantly screwed over by Fox football.

I hope it gets a lot better. It looks like it's got some real possibilities. Personally, I like having a conservative father and liberal daughter in the mix, but I also watch a lot of The Daily Show, so obviously I like political humor. The alien was pretty lame in the pilot, but he could make a good character. The fish doesn't do anything for me, at least so far.

I'd predict the show does get a fair bit better, but gets cancelled as soon as it starts hitting its stride. Because Fox is cruel. Very, very cruel.

I think Fox should run this right before the next new show they launch. After people finish watching this piece of crap they will love whatever the new program is that much more.

About 6 months ago, give or take, they had a clip online of the first few minutes of the show, right up until he took the dog for a "walk." Definitely not funny and highly un-original.

Dad = Peter Griffin
Mom = Lois Griffin
Talking Fish = Brian (talking dog)
Effeminite Alien = Stewie (effeminite baby)
Son = Chris Griffin
Daughter = Meg Griffin

Really? I would've thought that it would've been the other way around, seeing as how Stewie's always usually after his mom (to kill her) and the fish is after the mom (to... um... f{expletive deleted}).

And the alien is a much more of a sarcastic character, just like Brian.

Well, Brian is attracted to Louis, just like the fish, and while the alien doesn't want to kill the mom, he is effeminite.

I honestly don't think it matters which roll they fill, they're still the same characters.
