American Dad! Season 15 Episode 9 The Never-Ending Stories Grade: B+ A great Stan monologue with his family desperate to escape him was a fabulous intro to the episode.

American Dad! Season 15 Episode 7 Klaustastrophe.TV Grade: A A little meta referential humor and serial killer Klaus goes a long way, I’ve found. I even liked the senseless violence this week. The dialogue about how the rest of the … Continue reading “Klaustastrophe.TV” American Dad! S15 E7
Bob’s Burgers Season 8 Episode 10 The Secret Ceramics Room of Secrets Grade: B An enjoyable bout of Teddy slowly unknowingly wearing away at Bob’s last nerve, a little filler, and a strong sub-plot make for a decent, if largely … Continue reading “The Secret Ceramics Room of Secrets” Bob’s Burgers S8 E10
