Roger the alien from American Dad is an accurate representation of the average DataLounge user

How did American Dad end up being 100000 times better than Family Guy? is it a situation where the only good writers on Family Guy left to do that instead? Family Guy is unwatchable and I always forget that American Dad is way better until it comes on when I don't change the channel.

R1 I read that Seth MacFarlane has a huge influence on how Family Guy is written, whereas he's not that involved with American Dad anymore.

I agree. Roger represents the best and worst elements of the gay experience.

He truly is!

Currently going through a LOT in my life and have wrapped myself in a bubble of medical MJ and adult animation. Have watched AD twice through this year already and I am absolutely obsessed with Roger.

And yes, he is very much the epitome of DL. Good call, OP

I have also been reading and purging/redecorating, too, so it’s not all teenage regression. Although with what I have been trying to navigate lately it is a wonder I am not popping Xanax on the reg or something stronger.

The "voice of Roger"? How original.

Roger's funnier than we are. We're Paul Lynde funny but not Roger the alien funny.

We'd say "if you don't keep that baby quiet I'm going to fuck it" but we'd never say "She’s gonna get the best damn wine of her stupid bitch life."

I am Roger.

Funniest Roger quote. "Mama just LOVES Freddie. She lets him have sex with girls but puts my ear to the stove for playing with the chickens!"

Also, he's a sodomite.

I’ve not watched this show very often, but I have a straight friend who is obsessed with it and regularly sends me Roger clips that “remind” him of me. I’m not sure how to take that.

I agree about Roger embodying how I picture the general DL user. Spot-on!

R12 it's definitely a compliment.

I can’t find clips for them, but I always liked the one where he discovers celebrity magazines and chocolate covered potato chips.

Also the one where he and Stan have a secret gay fling and Roger becomes stalker-y obsessed with him.

R15 Roger shows attraction to pretty much every family member, including Haley, Steve & Klaus. I guess he’s an alien, so normal taboos and sexual limits don’t apply to him. He’s not gay as much as anything goes.

“I don’t like my baby to see me use landlines.”

[quote] [R12] it's definitely a compliment.

Roger is a flamboyant lazy obnoxious degenerate psychopath. It’s definitely not a compliment.

I think Roger the alien might just be involved in some homosexual activity.

R18 Au contraire, cunt.

R11 Roger's cosplaying Carrie Bradshaw in that

"Yes, Love, whatever Love wants."

Roger is great, even if he caused the creation of Kim Kardashian.

That episode,the Ricky Spanish one and the episode where Roger's alter takes on a life of its own are amongst my favorite episodes.

R9 so Roger's ex-wife was well into her fifties...

Francine looked so hot in that pink dress. Total fanservice, but.

He looks better than Jodie Foster did in The Accused.
