“Top of the Steve” (March 18, 2019)

Animated sitcoms like playing with corny TV conventions more than live-action sitcoms do, and maybe none has more fun with the sitcom genre itself than American Dad. In this episode, Steve nearly spins off into his own series, but unlike every other entry in our Backdoor Pilots series, he’s actually aware of what’s happening to him. It’s a weird one-off that gets meta in the way that’s very typical of Seth MacFarlane show.

And this is the last of the Backdoor Pilots series — this one is technically a bonus episode — so we’re making it available to everyone who supports us on Patreon or Apple Podcasts. The rest are behind the pay wall. New bonus series coming!

The theme song to this series was composed and performed by Meika Grimm.
