Anyone catch the season premiere of American Dad on Sunday? I thought it was great, pretty much laughed through the whole thing. I should mention that I HATE musicals, even during the Simpsons' heyday whenever they'd do one I'd hate it. But this one was funny. Maybe its because they were mostly making fun of songs/pop culture from an era when I was immersed in pop culture, but I was on board. That and I saw Little Shop of Horrors as a kid.
I can't get that "Dipped a Toe" and "Daddy's Gone" songs out of my head! I laughed so hard during the latter song, when Steve & Roger had their shirts open acting all Backstreet Boys'ish and were just jacked. Thought Cee Lo Green was arguably the best celeb guest I had ever seen in a cartoon too, which I did not expect. I'm not a fan of his, but he did a great job.
Had to love the very end too: "Well, there you have it, that's our story. Stan's dead. Goodnight!" Great start to the season. I wonder when people will finally realize this show's been awesome for 3-4 years now, 100 times better than played out Family Guy.
