American Dad!

Ok, first off, the next episode was announced at NYCC as:
One-Woman Swole January 28, 2019 Production code CAJN14
Tired of never finishing what she starts, Francine takes bodybuilding to an unhealthy extreme.

Next, Santa Schmanta...
While this was included as season 14, apparently only based on tbs announcing the season premiere date of Feb 12, all other evidence says it is part of season 15. This includes production code, press releases anouncing 22 episodes in seasons 14 (this makes it 23) and 15 (there will only be 21, the NYCC announcement says 9 left for season 15). TBS has consistently called this part of their season 13, including on their schedule and episode pages.

The date of the new episode has changed to February 11, 2019

Additionally, someone has listed this as a new season in error, please delete, and possibly a lock for a few months may be in order.

Thanks!

I strongly second that motion, as I was coming here to also request that the next episode (Febuary 11th, 2019) be moved from 16x1 to 15x13.

And additional evidence for moving Santa Schmanta...

And all TBS sites are indicating new episodes, no mention of new season.

Please, Santa Schmanta has been out there wrong for a year now, let's not do the same with this one.

So, on TBS official schedule, 'One-Woman Swole', which will be aired on February 11th, is Season 13 Episode 14.


See: https://www.tbs.com/schedule

That makes it Season 15 Episode 13 on TVDB.
Imho, S15 E14 would be better, but, in any case, it's NOT S16 E1.

Thus, could this episode be added to the locked Season 15, and could Season 16 be removed, please?

Thanks

Thus, could this episode be added to the locked Season 15, and could Season 16 be removed, pretty pleaaase?

Thanks

I don't understand the confusion on naming and seasons, majority should rule and not politics within TVDB mods. I wish I could just place and rename everything nice and tidy on my own with the addition of pulling info from sites like this. Show producers said season 15 will continue then will start season 16 right after. I'd say they are a good source of info.....

I'd just like to add my voice to the request to shift the episodes from "Season 16" into the current "Season 15."

The Series-Specific Information post (viewtopic.php?f=7&t=6308) states that for American Dad episodes, "only the official listing from TBS is relevant". Since, as others have noted, TBS is listing the new episodes as being part of the previous season, could the three episodes currently listed as being "Season 16" be moved to the correct ongoing season?

So utterly frustrating that this well sourced request made by multiple users on a high profile and controversial show has been left alone by mods for two weeks (and longer than that tbh).

It's totally expected that someone would create a new season in this case as it seems like the only option to add the episode to the DB, especially now it has aired...

I think it's evident that more mods are required to maintain the forum and site, or users will start to abandon this data source for the other one.
