This city is afraid of me. I have seen its true face. The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!'... and Gon's Balls will whisper 'First... comes... rock!' Hah!  Made you stare at Naruto's Marshmallow!  Pushing the logo off-center to drive TheOcean insane.

Default American Dad

A show by FAmily Guy creator Seth McFarlane, the show centers around CIA Agent Stan Smith and his family which consists of his wife Francine who does the cooking and cleaning, his daughter Hayley who always goes against most of Stan's wishes and is seen as the buzzkill, his son Steve who just can't seem to win his father's affections much less get a girl to like him, Roger who is an alien that lives with the family, and Clause who is a German trapped in the body of a goldfish.

This show seemed to take itself more seriously in the first season, but has become more light hearted as seasons have past. It's a fun, quirky show, so feel free to discuss whatever you want in this thread.

I'll go first because it's kind of a burning question:

Is Roger a boy or a girl?

I know it would seem pretty obvious, but as I think more and more I'm not so sure if Roger can really be defined into just one gender. Below are the reasons for each gender he could be.

Roger as a girl:
He seems to have a liquid substance that seems to pop up atleast once every season.
He likes dressing up as a girl and get's offended when he isn't seen as pretty
He's become a harlot for a middle easter man
He's offered his body to Stan more than once

Roger as a boy:
Dress's like a boy
sounds like a boy
Went after Steve's first girlfriend Debbie

There are other reasons such as Roger drinking alot and being manipulative, but categorizing those into a gender probably wouldn't be the best course of action so I'm just going to let those float around the room. What do you think? Is Roger a boy, a girl, or possibly both?

I just assumed he's a guy... What with being called Rodger and all...

What's with the golden turd gag though? If I remember right, Rodger made it and then everyone who finds it gets killed by someone, regrets it, gets killed, repeat.

I dunno, I never got that joke either. I hear it was a side joke to King Midas though.

I don't think he even knows what gender he is lol. But yes, he's a good character. Though my favorite is Clause. Now I want a german goldfish. XD

I love this show, though I think the last season wasn't as good. Way to many Roger episodes. I like Roger, but I don't want to see episodes about him all the time. I especially like the really dark episodes.

I just figured out the golden turd came from Roger in one of the earlier episodes. So it's more of a side story now from where I'm sittin instead of a gag. That episode is now on hulu in the first season. It's the same episode where Stan and Francine meet their two iranian neighbors.

lol the golden turd was in the first season as a rip off of ET when roger fell off the bike that steve was riding, hence the begginning of the golden turn saga which incorporates its way into various episodes

i still think season four is the best so far :)
hayley going in a big rage every-time she has a break up lolz and dating her fathers body double, that was gold :D

Yeah I just figured that out. I saw the later episode so I was at a loss with the turd joke. But yeah Hayley is great too. Her breakups are awesome. The episode where she breaks up with Jeff and then he turns around and gets into online gaming, that was an excellent episode. The one where she becomes a stripper was great too. XD

Yes, I think the show has gotten better as it's gotten older myself. I think it took itself too seriously at the begining.

I think so too. Don't get me wrong, I love family guy, but I think American dad is just a better more well rounded show.

i also liked Stanely, who is in the fourth season as rogers alter ego

There are some good things about American Dad. The show can be funny at times for me. I just dont like too many of the characters. They annoy me too much and are 10xs more stupid they any character in Family Guy.

Hah, I was going to say the same thing XD The one where he dressed up as Lestat to get Steve's girlfriend was awesome too.

Also, I don't think anyone can get dumber than Peter Griffon. He takes the cake IMO.

It could be that alot of people have grown a little bit bored. Granted in family guy there is point a and point b, but it's more wackyness and at times, doesn't seem to flow well. But I think that's what we all loved at one point. In American Dad, everything is pretty much consistant.
Besides, you kinda loose interest in things when you can't watch it. Hulu only have 5 episodes and Adultswim.com stopped showing episodes on the net.

BTW I just watched the episode where Haley sleeps with Stans boss XD

They're both a set of different dynamics, and Family Guy's cutaway gags and sometimes self-destructive jokes ("What else am I supposed to do on my Tuesday nights? Except watch the wonderful television on Fox...") hold better with me. American Dad, though, hasn't suffered from the degeneration that Family Guy has started to experience, and the whole thing is just a bit fresher.

Very true and good point. Though speaking on Seth McFarlane's stuff as a whole, does anyone think the cleveland show is going to be as good as Family Guy and American Dad? I know it's a little off topic. But I'm curious.

I think its pretty sad when they throw all their dreams into American Idol. Then you hear, "Now what am I going to do with my life?" I know.. GET A JOB Sorry but its how I feel.
