In a significant move within the television landscape, Fox Broadcasting Company is finalizing an agreement to bring back the animated series ‘American Dad!’ to its original network. The show, created by Seth MacFarlane, Mike Barker, and Matt Weitzman, initially premiered on Fox in 2005 before transitioning to TBS in 2014. After a successful decade-long tenure on TBS, the series is poised to return to Fox for its upcoming 22nd season.
‘American Dad!’ chronicles the eccentric life of Stan Smith, a zealous CIA agent, and his unconventional family, including an alien named Roger and a talking goldfish, Klaus. The show’s unique blend of satire and absurdity has garnered a dedicated fan base over the years.
The anticipated transition back to Fox aligns with the conclusion of ‘American Dad!’s current season on TBS, with the finale scheduled for March 24, 2025. This strategic move is expected to provide a seamless viewing experience for audiences, as new episodes will air on Fox while previous seasons remain accessible on TBS and Adult Swim through 2030.
This development also underscores Fox’s ongoing commitment to its animation lineup, which includes stalwarts like ‘The Simpsons’ and ‘Family Guy.’ The reintegration of ‘American Dad!’ into Fox’s programming slate signifies the network’s recognition of the show’s enduring popularity and its potential to bolster viewership.
As ‘American Dad!’ prepares to embark on this new chapter, fans can look forward to the continued adventures of the Smith family, blending sharp humor with timely social commentary.
