Tony April 15, 2016 Share April 15, 2016 So is this the series finale, b/c if so I would say they went out with a bang. This was the best episode in a long while since the move to TBS. Nope, a new episode is scheduled to air 4/11. Even better... this show is renewed, so it's coming back next season.

Galileo908 April 19, 2016 Share April 19, 2016 Not too surprising that Roger now has an entire persona factory. It used to be just in his closet. And yeah, there was almost every classic persona hung up in there. Definitely noticed Ricky Spanish and Wheels in there. It was only a matter of time before Roger took over someone else's persona, right?

Spartan Girl April 19, 2016 Share April 19, 2016 Of course Roger would go Single White Female on that woman. Klaus using the dreaded "I Like To Move It" song to torture the incapacitated Smiths gave me the biggest laugh of the night.

TVSpectator April 19, 2016 Share April 19, 2016 I really liked how the Cross Fit instructor left by throwing dumbells into the air. That had to be the best gag in the whole episode. The Roger plot reminded me of the movie, The Talented Mr. Ripley and of course he would try to take over that woman's life and also send both Francine and her onto a barge.

SmithW6079 April 21, 2016 Share April 21, 2016 I watch the reruns of "American Dad" almost every night on Adult Swim, and the other night was one I always enjoy -- "AT: The Abusive Terrestrial," the spoof of all those Lifetime women-in-danger movies, with Roger finding a new boy, who ends up beating him. It's spot-on, down to the dialogue -- "Why does he stay, Hayley, why does he stay?!" -- and right to the ending, with Roger triumphant over his abuser. The Stan and Francine story with Mr. Pibb is OK, but not the same caliber as Roger and Steve's. I didn't even know Mr. Pibb was an actual soft drink; I thought it was made up for the show.
