‘American Dad’ Renewed for 18th and 19th Seasons

TBS unveiled that the animated comedy American Dad has been renewed for an 18th and 19th season. 

“American Dad is reaching rarified air with 18th and 19th season pickups that only a handful of shows have ever accomplished; this speaks to the zeitgeisty humor that resonates with audiences and to the dedication of its creators and brilliant TBS network executives,” said Adrienne O’Riain and Sam Linsky, Co-Heads of Scripted Programming at TBS, TNT, and truTV.”

American Dad first aired in February 2005 via Fox. But, once 2014 hit, it was picked up by TBS and Adult Swim. Since then, the show has remained highly applauded. 

“We are all so grateful to TBS for this two-season pickup,” said Weitzman in a statement regarding the news.” Getting seasons 18 and 19 means, we will finally be able to tell the stories we only dreamed of telling in seasons 16 and 17. Much thanks also to everyone at 20th Television Animation for all their continued support of American Dad’s many years of corrupting our nation’s, nay, the world’s youth…most of whom are now about to turn 40.”
