Introduction
• American dad! Is an American animated television series created by Seth MacFarlane who is also the creator of Family Guy and The Cleveland Show
• It is owned by Underbog Productions and Fuzzy Door Productions• American dad! Follows the events of CIA agent Stan Smith and his family• Unlike Family Guy, American Dad! Does not contain cutaway gags, but relies more on
situational humour• American Dad! Has a recurring gag in its opening sequence that is changed every
episode, pretty similar to how The Simpsons use a couch gag in each of their opening sequences• This recurring gag was originally a different newspaper headline which usually referred to current affairs, this gag lasted for the first 4 seasons• After that they changed the gag to Roger popping up next to Stan in his SUV singing “Good Morning, USA!” with a different costume each episode
