"Season number discrepancies and episode misreports
Season number discrepancies
There are multiple conflicting reports and models of the number of seasons American Dad! has had.[10]
(A): One of the reports upholds a one-season-fewer numbering model: Under this arrangement, season 1 is a combination of both the first 7 episodes and the following 16 episodes, despite the separation of these two episode collections by a summer hiatus. Under this system, season 1 is uncharacteristically longer in contrast to the rest of the show's seasons, consisting of 23 episodes.[42][43]
(B): The other report upholds a one-season-more numbering model: Under this arrangement, season 1 ended after the program's first 7 episodes leading into the summer hiatus. Season 2 then picked up when the following 16 episodes began that fall. Under this system, season 1 is uncharacteristically shorter in contrast to the rest of the show's seasons, consisting of only 7 episodes.[44]
(C): Hulu, which is the online streaming home for American Dad!, lists the number of seasons as 14.[45] Hulu combines episodes 1–23 into season 1, and combines episodes 173–190 into season 10.
(D): While TBS lists "Downtown" and "Cheek to Cheek: A Stripper's Story" as season 14 (Wikipedia's season 16) episodes 21 and 22, the official YouTube playlist includes them in season 15 (Wikipedia's season 17) as episodes 2 and 3.[46]
Commentary from American Dad! co-creators Matt Weitzman and Mike Barker has largely been consistent with (A): on September 28, 2012, the two were interviewed and reported that they had 20 episodes completed for the then imminent "eighth season," and were "developing our ninth season".[47] During the show's life on Fox, however, the network contradicted that arrangement as it presented information on the show's now former website in the form of (B): in listing all episodes from the 2012–13 season, Fox reported each as existing as part of the show's "ninth season".[48] In addition, Fox contradicted its own American Dad! website, also supporting the one-season-fewer numbering scheme: Fox Flash, which is the publicity center for Fox, labeled the 2012–13 broadcasts as the "eighth season".[49] Websites releasing the show's season-based ratings have also used the one-season-fewer numbering method."
