Ya Dylflon posted the pilot here awhile ago. The one they showed tonight was basically the pilot but the added more to it, and Carmen Electra guest starred.

I don't understand why the creator just doesn't stick with Family Guy. If he's going to do an additional show, he needs to change the character design. The characters in American Dad are identical to the characters in Family Guy. At least change the eyes. Futurama did the same thing and I think that can be attributed to its lack of success. Although Futurama had a much different setting whereas American Dad is in the same time period and location. But both Futurama and American Dad are just variations of their predecessors. Their needs to be more change in the design style and genre for each show to successfully coexist with its relative show. Otherwise, Futurama and American shouldn't be introduced until after The Simpsons and Family guy have both ended.

I just kind of felt like it was an insult to Family Guy. But maybe that's just me.

When Futurama came out, I enjoyed it. The characters were original. American Dad IS Family guy... with poor characters.

I watched the trailer. I lowered my expectations and was able to enjoy it.

The german skier scene cracked me up.

The show isn't THAT bad. Just give it a chance.

You can't be expecting Family Guy level stuff, because that just goes above and beyond. This show may have its moments. I love the dog trying to pee, but it ends up being just dust.

And, its ok, because new Family Guy is coming to Fox May 1st
