'American Dad' Reaching 100 Eps Is More Impressive Than When Family Guy Did It...

[Brian Damage]

The big one-oh-oh, called "100 A.D.," airs this Sunday, Oct. 3 at 9:30 p.m., and centers on Stan and Francine trying to stop Hayley from eloping. Hijinks ensue, jerky is eaten, body parts explode—just what you'd expect!

We asked MacFarlane how it felt to reach this milestone, and he joked, "That's the kind of thing that's supposed to make you happy...right? No, 100 episodes is good. American Dad snuck up on 100 episodes. It doesn't have the dramatic backstory that Family Guy had as far as the cancellation and the resurrection, but it's had a more solid run from then to now. I think it's arguably more of an achievement that this show has reached 100 episodes, because it has not had the advantage of all the hype that Family Guy has."

As for next 100 episodes, we asked if the show still works now that the George W. Bush administration has been replaced by the Barack Obama administration, and MacFarlane said, "With a Republican in power Stan [Smith] can be Mr. Rah-Rah Crazy Person, and with a Democrat in power he can be Archie Bunker, complaining about everything. I think it really works both ways."
