This rating is for "Killer Vacation". That episode was merciless, ruthless, disgusting, devastating, cruel, and selfish. All I saw in that episode was a bunch of child haters against Steve. It's been haunting my mind ever since I watched it. Why did they have Steve get severely hurt throughout the majority of that episode while the others have a good time after his family was selfish at him and nothing else happens? It made wanna throw a temper tantrum. 😭😭😭😭 That is why I'm making a screenplay of the second part to this episode and when I'm done with it I really want to submit it to Seth Macfarlane really, really bad. You like what I hate. 😠 Is that what this is? Are Stan and especially Francine child haters? Because that's what I see. So much of these episodes make me sick.

The show started out slow, but it turned into something amazing. However, the past 3 seasons have been lack luster. They fall outside the normal American Dad comedy I've grown to love. I think they may have obtained new writers, and the move to TBS definitely has not helped in any way. But every season there are at least a couple of gems that feel like the old episodes.

You guys are charging way too much per episode. You are aware I hope that apps themselves often cost $2 or less, correct? At 2 bucks per episode you are essentially asking people to buy an entirely new app each time they want to view a different episode. This is way too costly. I can go to JetFlicks and get a season for pennies. Charge us 15 cents per episode, that makes more sense....
