Production
On July 16, 2013, it was announced that American Dad! had been cancelled by Fox.[1] Soon after, cable network TBS would announce that it had picked up the show for a 15-episode 11th season, slated to premiere on October 20, 2014.[2][3][4]
The tenth season was initially the final one on Fox; however, on July 20, 2014, it was announced that Fox had three unaired episodes left for broadcast. Reports from Fox seemed to imply that these three episodes constituted a season of their own. Among multiple discrepant reports from TBS, one indicated that the three episodes were the beginning of the 11th season to resume on their network.[5] On DVD and Hulu, these episodes appear as the first three episodes of season 12.
