Amazon.co.uk Review
"I’m not beloved," CIA Agent Stan Smith is shocked to discover after eavesdropping on his mocking neighbours in the episode, "I Can’t Stan You". With all the resolve this "pig-headed" Red State poster boy and George "The Dub" Bush devotee can muster, he vows, "I will make these people like me." For those still on the fence about American Dad, this collection of 18 episodes ought to do the trick. These characters may not be as indelible as the Family Guy clan, but these episodes rarely flag. If the outrageous storylines don’t grab you, the rapid-fire random gags will. Like King of the Hill’s Hank Hill , Stan (voiced by series co-creator Seth McFarlane) is oft confounded by a world seemingly gone mad. Unlike Hank, he is the voice of un-reason. In "Surro-Gate," Stan’s dizzy wife, Francine (Wendy Schaal) agrees to be the surrogate for the Smith’s gay neighbors, prompting the disapproving Stan to kidnap the infant, as well as the brood of a lesbian couple. In "Black Mystery Month," Stan reveals a Da Vinci Code-like conspiracy involving George Washington Carver that’s plain nuts. In another episode, "Bush Comes to Dinner" for a night of drunken debauchery; some easy-target Bush-bashing is redeemed when the President makes peace between Stan and his "lost cause" liberal daughter, Hayley (Rachael MacFarlane). Some of the best episodes focus more on the Smith family than politics. In "The Vacation Goo", Francine demands a real family getaway after discovering that all previous vacations were artificially created memories. In "Haylias," it is revealed that the unwitting Hayley is a brainwashed sleeper agent, who is activated by Stan to stop her from moving to France. "The 42-Year-Old Virgin" reveals another shocker: trigger-happy Stan has never actually killed anyone!

American Dad revels in guy humour. As Stan tells an unamused Hayley at one point, "You don’t get a willy, you don’t get the silly." American Dad brings the silly, but while the series is not above (or beneath) moth fart jokes, it is also smart enough to reference, say, "Equus" or the touching "When Somebody Loved Me" number from Toy Story 2. Stan’s geeky son, Steve (Scott Grimes), bitchy alien Roger (MacFarlane), and talking fish Klaus (Dee Bradley Baker) are no Chris, Brian, or Stewie, but this set contains some of their more memorable outings. In "Frannie 911," it turns out that it actually would kill Roger to be nice. In "Surro-Gate," Klaus vows revenge on Roger and Stan following a waterslide prank. American Dad fans will salute this three-disc set’s generous features, including a riotous Comic-Con cast table read of the episode, "The 42 Year-Old Virgin," nearly a half hour of deleted scenes (deleted jokes would be more accurate), unrated versions (with unbleeped profanities) of certain episodes, and freewheeling audio commentaries ("Hey, aren’t we supposed to talk about the episode?" one participant tries to steer one digressive conversation). --Donald Liebenson

Most Helpful Customer Reviews   7 of 7 people found the following review helpful: 4.0 out of 5 stars More great stuff from American Dad!, 14 May 2008 By  Rui Firmino (Dublin, Ireland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)    If you're reading this you're probably a fan already. This 3rd series is as good as any of the previous ones, clever and outrageous story lines, great jokes and some occasional hilarious profanity! This is a real pleasure to watch, again and again! There's only a couple of bad points: Klaus is becoming less and less funny, the extras are good but not great, I miss the casts interviews and stuff like that. Also the quality of the DVD itself is disappointing, you can see it's just a cheap transfer of the original American DVD, especially when you pause the picture. On one episode the screen even wobbles noticeably for a couple of seconds. These points however do not dtract from an overall great product that will give you hours of viewing pleasure. Buy it and enjoy! Comment Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

I just want to point out, that the UK releases of American Dad! might be more or less chronological (box 3 leaves out the 8th episode of series 3, a christmas special), but are released not in a season-per-box way. Read: This "Volume 3" contains the episodes 10 to 19 of season 2 plus the first 7 episodes of season 3 and episode 9 of season 3. Basically all episodes (apart from the said x-mas episode) that were originally shown in 2007 in the US. Just to clear things up a bit.

It's not as completely insane and nonsensical, the characters, particularly Roger and Stan, have somewhat changed, and though still crazy to a certain extent, they don't have any of the killer lines of the earlier series. For some strange reason Stan has started learning lessons all over the place (N.B. Klaus' commentary at the end of 'Bullocks to Stan') - very dissapointing. Politically it has taken a sharply liberal turn, and while I have no real problem with this, it comes off preachy and completely fails to properly represent the conservative point of view (which if it is intending to be preachy, it really should do). It's not all rubbish, it still provides great entertainment and enough laughs, you just won't be laughing as hard as you used to. Comment Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
