      Season 5 – American Dad!

      2009 Comedy Animation List
      Reviews 93% 50+ Ratings Audience Score Stan Smith is a CIA agent painfully dedicated to homeland security. His home life includes doting wife Francine, a ditzy housewife, liberal daughter Hayley and socially awkward teenaged son Steve. Also living in the family's Langley Falls, Va., home are Klaus, a goldfish with the brain of an East German Olympic ski jumper, and Roger, an escaped alien from Area 51, who Stan houses in defiance of his employer due to owing Roger a "life debt." Sounds just like the typical American family, right? Maybe not. Read More Read Less Watch on Fandango at Home Premiered Sep 28 Buy Now

      Ryan M American Dad continues the adventures with Stan, Francine, Hayley, Steve, Roger, Klaus, Debbie, Jeff, Snot, Toshi and Barry. Stan bullies Steve to man him up. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/18/24 Full Review David W American Dad's fifth season continues to deliver the biting humor the show is known for. The exploration of new and previously existing side characters adds unexpected engenderment of engagement, particularly for an animated comedy show. It was seeing episodes from this season in a hotel room that led me to want to watch the show in its entirety. I would definitely revisit this season again.

      R.L. Shaffer IGN Movies The show, unfortunately, does remain somewhat muted and ultimately a bit mediocre. It is amusing, and MacFarlane fans should enjoy the humor, but it just doesn't work as well as Family Guy. Rated: 6/10 Oct 3, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
