TBS has announced that it has picked up the Fox series American Dad! and will begin airing new episodes in 2014. The show will have one last season this fall on Fox and then start its 11th season on TBS next fall.
The network has been steadily bringing in new shows and adding American Dad! to the roster is certainly a win for TBS. President and head of programming for TBS, TNT and Turner Classic Movie Michael Wright told Deadline, “American Dad! is a great fit for TBS, a favorite of comedy fans who like smart, irreverent humor with ample doses of biting wit and skewering satire. We look forward to welcoming Seth MacFarlane and the rest of his team as they bring this iconic show to TBS.”
American Dad! premiered on Fox in 2005 and has been one of the network's best rated comedies. With this new deal, fellow Turner network Adult Swim will present encores of each episode after initial airings on TBS.
