"american dad!" was first shown after super bowl xxxix, debuting with the episode "pilot", which macfarlane co-wrote. this february 6, 2005 series premiere was somewhat of an early sneak preview as the program would not begin airing regularly as part of fox's animation domination until may 1, 2005. because of atypical scheduling of the show's first 7 episodes, "american dad!" has a controversial season number discrepancy in which many are divided as to how many seasons the program has had. beyond division between media journalists and fans, there has been conflicting reports as to what season the show is in even between "american dad!" creators and the show's official website—both from its original fox website and now from tbs website. at comic-con 2013 on july 20, "american dad!" co-creator mike barker hinted that an "american dad!" movie—centering on the roger character and set from his birth planet—is in the works and partially written. what with barker's departure from the series however, it is unclear if any of these plans have been scrapped or modified in any way.

in its early going, "american dad!" brought in strong ratings but fought an uphill battle in gaining widespread acceptance and approval from viewers and critics alike. the popularity of macfarlane and his involvement with "family guy" have led to foregone conclusions and prejudices against "american dad!" as a rip-off of the predecessor and some critics had already written off "american dad!" prior to its birth as nothing more than a pale imitation of "family guy" and macfarlane's attempts to get his old show back on the air. one example, prior to the "american dad!" series debut, a writer of "the washington post" published a piece that reads "but those same executives have also given macfarlane a whole new animated half-hour to play with in the disappointing "american dad!" the new series officially premieres in may but has a sneak preview tomorrow night in the coveted post-super bowl time period ... the look and pace of "american dad!" is the same as "family guy"."
