I thought after January the new episodes would continue instead we get reruns what gives? I want new Simpsons, Family Guy and American Dad, and The Cleveland Show

I hope to catch-up with "American Dad" myself, I haven't had to watch the show because "AFV" is on at the same time.

There used to be a time when you would see first-run shows continously from September through March. These days, first-run shows are most likely run during the "Sweeps" periods of November, February and May, when the Networks use the ratings to set their Advertising Rates. The rest of the year, you are most likely to see reruns.
