American Dad! (TV Series) Comb Over: A Hair Piece (2021) User Reviews

Kind of an uneven episode......AND WHERE"S JEFF?????

[mja58 · 7/10 · 3 August 2021]

If you read the IMDB or other TV summary you know that the episode centers around Stan's baldness, with the rest of the group being accident scene photographers.

This wasn't the best, but it had it's moments.

Roger's Josay Bosay was pretty funny.

The thing that nagged me was that Jeff was missing, and he wasn't spoken of (that I could remember) - - it was like he just never existed. WEIRD....

7/10.

This show always finds the weirdest celebrities to mock and that was no different here with this one.

Worst American Dad episode ever?

[RogerRoger77 · 2/10 · 31 May 2022]

American Dad is sometimes very funny - but it's also very uneven, often alternating between good and bad episodes all the way through a season. However, this is the first time I've been so bored by an episode that I felt moved to write a review.

The pre-credits sequence is actually pretty funny, with Stan 'telling it how it is' to the whole family. But when the main plot kicks in - some utter nonsense about Stan getting a hair transplant and a Rod Stewart haircut - it goes downhill fast.

Roger's personas, like the show in general, can be very funny - but then again, sometimes they are just annoying and tedious. In this case, Roger's 1970s hairdresser character is most definitely the latter; there simply isn't anything funny about him. And what's with focusing a whole episode around satirising Rod Stewart? Much of the audience probably don't even know he is, and even if you do, he hasn't been part of the cultural zeitgeist for at least 30 years.

The plot doesn't really go anywhere, and the jokes mostly fall flat. A very poor episode.

Absolute waste of a potentially great episode

[Rooooguuu · 4/10 · 2 December 2021]

Roger's lamest personas are the ones that make you wish that the family would stop playing along and instead slap him and tell him to snap out if. This usually happens when they try way too hard with Roger's persona. Everything about this episode's persona was a mess. Instead of being a real follow up to the classic episode chimdale, it turned into 15 minute joke about Rod Stewart?

There were exactly two funny scenes and sadly, both happened in the opening minutes of the episode (Stan telling it how it is and then his hair surgery). The rest is just a lazy Stan and Roger story.
