I think the problem with the show is that Fox said, "Hmm, maybe we made a mistake canceling Family Guy. Let's have Seth McFarlane do another show with similar characters, animation, and humor," then they said, "Ah, hell, let's just resurrect Family Guy." So American Dad ends up playing like Family Guy Lite. Plus McFarlane can't do politcal humor a tenth as good as South Park, or even half as good as The Simpsons.
AG has enough moments that I'll watch it if I come across it on Fox or Adult Swim, but I don't feel compelled to stop what I'm doing and tune to Fox every Sunday. Which means I might buy the DVDs if I see it in one of those $14.99 sales that online stores occasionally hold for Fox series, but it's not something I'll preorder or rush out to get on release day.
