The American Dad Goth Kids

Yep, some of you might remember Steve's (the son) overweight goth girlfriend, well today they featured the rest of her friends, the stairwell goths! Yes they hangout in a dark candlelit stairwell, that smells like a Depeche mode(DEPECHE MODE!) concert, saving up money for a cat skeleton,scaring people away with Joy Division's "Love will Tear us apart".

Frankly I liked it, and think it's a lot better than Seth MacFarlane's previous stereotypical depiction of goths, with a cameo by marilyn manson.

Also what does a Depeche Mode(DEPECHE MODE!) concert smell like?

Like raw eggs and compost, mixed up in a blender with something too evil to mention it's name...

I thought it was hilarious. The Depeche Mode concert thing had me cracking up. And when Joy Division started playing I laughed so hard that I fell off my chair.

I thought it was funny. I liked them too. But made me sad when they decided to also turn them in

Ooooh, I've never seen that one, but now I want to. XD XD XD

As for the Marilyn Manson episode of Family Guy, I found it absolutely hilarious because Manson was promoting healthy family values, and was trying to get Chris to give up his metal lifestyle.

Its too bad the episode didn't feature more screentime for them. Sometimes it feels like that show stumbles upon a great idea for an episode and then skids by it narrowly into a more cliched idea.

I was actually surprised at how long their screentime was. But at the end i wished for more.

I wasn't a fan of the whole "escape from the school" plot, and the revenge plot didn't do anything for me either. I think that it would have been funnier if the plot had, perhaps, focused on Debbie not liking the nerds and Steve being uncomortable with the Goths. It just felt like the builk of the episode wasn't that funny but certain highlights really were.

Why'd they jump out of the bus?! Why?! They could've ATLEAST checked for a carelessly-left key! That sort of weird shit happens all the time in cartoons!
