Y'know going back to see my first home I just realized we lived in the ghetto, sure there were gunshots almost every other night and would see cops patrol the area half the time and knowing the house across the street was a drug dealer( nice guy helped during Harvey and Ike) it wasnt all bad.
There's a real story that's somewhat similar. A kid in the 80s lost his parents to gang violence in Compton and the Globetrotters took him on the road for a few months until the courts found a suitable relative for him to live with. Take this with a grain of salt though. It's a story that was in one of the 80s Globetrotter's biographies, but there aren't really any sources to back it up. Nothing contradicts it and people who saw shows that year do remember a young ball boy at a lot of shows, but still no real hard evidence. Personally, I think it did happen.
Can we take in that Stan around the age of 6 or so had absolutely brutal abduction skills he’s not even in the CIA and he took out those guys with little to no problems

No, he doesn't. Being a shitty father in a different way is still a shitty father. A lot of people point out how Stan "hasn't abandoned his family," as if that's some great thing, but sometimes having an abusive parent(s) stay in the picture is even worse. Shit, both of my "parents" are still together (though they definitely shouldn't be) and have been "around" all my life, but they have been nothing but toxic (including verbal, mental, and even physical abuse) that entire time. I have severe depression and anxiety because of the trauma they've put me through. And due to that, I am looked down on and ostracized by most people. They'll tell me I'm a good person and friend, but, since I haven't been able to obtain all the things society has convinced its members as the only things that give people worth and value, nothing I do have to offer is good enough. If I'd been without their toxic presence in my life tearing me down, maybe things would have turned out differently.
@@cosmicmcmoon5773 no. I think Stan accidentally got one of their agents and Bullock is trying to locate the island. Think about it. Stan has committed fireable offense after fireable offense. With no problem from Bullock.
“Oh Stan, How come I’ve never heard of this tree father?” “I took you there several times! We had our wedding there!”😑 “Oh, I thought you were just a cheap asshole.”
It seems that Stan is a pretty good father compared to his own Upd: Holy shit, it's been two years, and you people are still arguing about it. Man, i love RUclips.
Ehhhh…..I don’t know about that. The man has shot and harpooned his wife, even framing her for a murder she didn’t commit so he didn’t have to hear her say “I told you so”, twice stabbed and tasered his son, not to mention sending him to sex adversion therapy camp to avoid talking to him about sex and leaving him at a Sesame Street on ice performance like his dad did at the Globetrotters game, poorly reconstructed his daughter’s face simply to avoid responsibility for messing up the town’s mural and indoctrinated her into an CIA mind control experiment, and once pushed his family to the brink of mental collapse only to get $10 per month off his wife’s new car. Not saying Jack’s any better, and I do feel bad for Stan because what he went through definitely contributes to his parenting style, but the guy’s not really “father of the year” material.
Brother Stan should’ve punched or fought his father just when he returned instead of being a kissup. I know the Bible says “Honor thou mother and father” but I doubt he meant this way. Seriously if I had to guess if Stan fought his dad and won he could’ve been a better man and would’ve been therapeutic.

@@Cloud4012 I guess that's better than ditching him like his dad. But she did blame him for his dad leaving and made him kill his dog. Between the two of them it's a miracle Stan is even a passable father at all.
6:40 This is actually pretty accurate, neuroscience researches on memory demonstrate that whenever we retrieve a memory, we modify its content according to our present experience, erasing some detail or adding stuff that wasn't there. One small modification at a time... and years later we may end up with a very different memory than how things actually were. Pay attention everytime you think that present sucks and you were happier in the past because your brain fucks with you, a lot.
Do not know how he got chloroform but going off him learning about the sun I would guess third form, which would make him 8-10 in 1988 so he was born 1978-1980 making him 41-43 years old in the current year however the show began in 2005 which would make him 25 at that time, far too young to be married and have two teenage children so all of this was a long winded way to say that the writers do not care about the timeline, thus the timeline is nonsensical, and it was foolish of you to expect more from a comedy cartoon whose episodes have been established to only affect one another in order to further a joke.
So he took his mom's boyfriends out, as in he killed them, yet on one episode it's revealed that he'd never actually killed anyone and was faking it the entire time?
Man, Jack is a bad father to Stan. Heck, Francis Griffin was a better father by comparison, despite his quirks and his steadfast faith. *Update* I'm surprised that this comment already has over 1.5k likes in the course of four weeks, and possibly still counting.

@@mr.spaceaids5379 , the bike and the tears are more of a form of symbolism than metaphors because metaphors are figures of speech that don’t use like or as, and they don’t have visual symbolic meanings like symbolism does.
@@mr.spaceaids5379, I was saying that the speech Stan Smith gave of the bike and tears being more a form of symbolism than a metaphor because a metaphor doesn’t use like or as, and they have no symbolic meanings unlike symbolism does.

My dad ran over my bike to get out of teaching me how to ride it. He got found out seeing as how it couldn't have been in the driveway since he didnt teach me how to ride it.
So that’s where Steve gets his Oedipus complex. Stan was a momma’s boy so he was attracted to a woman with qualities like his mom,thus raising another boy with maternal attractions
Except for the walking out part. And everything else. He's more strict than Hank Hill, and more oblivious than Homer Simpson. Peter Griffin treats Meg the way Jack treated Stan.
If you think about it, Stan was seeing his past though rose colored glasses AND the filter. Even though the filter was turned off he still has his internal nostalgia at play.
It’s kinda funny but also sad whenever stan gets hit with his own trauma. He processes it but never gets a chance to heal from it. He laughs then cry’s and sometimes converts the pain into pleasure. And he does what he can to stop from being hurt again
It's really sad how earnestly the Globe Trotters loved Stan, and how in the end he couldn't cope with that love so he kind of callously left them behind once he found out they didn't abandon him. It's like he sees codependency and coldness as the only true love in his life, and anything else is circumstantial. Sometimes I wish American Dad would play these characters' stories totally straight instead of just for laughs.
"We even tried to adopt ya but I guess 12 Black Men attempting to take custody of a little White Boy wasn't a slam dunk back then..." "Or even now, probably."
To everyone reading this... It’s never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you're proud of, and if you find that you're not, I pray you’ll find the courage to start over. Stay blessed guys!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I do like how they represent emotional abuse, neglect and abandonment as trauma worthy as well since most people usually think of striaght up beatinga when they think of parental trauma and abuse
My childhood is messed up to I was a victim of human trafficking but now I'm an adult and I learnd never to do the things those people did to me rise above i was and am to strong for that
When they did the priest bit I was thinking that I have seen this joke ten thousand- "I seduced him. I dont know Why I wanted him, but I wanted him." ...Ok that got me. well played American Dad, well played.
If Stan was remembering it with nostalgia as seen by the filter making his memories colorful like the clips we’ve seen so far; does that mean his childhood was even worse
For a show not concerned by continuity (case and point: flashbacks of Stan's childhood featuring his dad in the early episodes show that he had both of his eyes when he abandoned him while later ones already have him the same eyepatch as he does in the present + the floating timeline causing Stan's formative years to take place 20 years later than they did at the beginning of the show) I appreciate how Stan's mom telling him he might actually responsible for his father's departure is actually validated in the episode "Blood Crieth Unto Heaven" where its revealed Jack had to leave because the police was after him for stealing fruit while dressed as a clown and got busted at Stan's birthday party when he invited the police chief and recognized the clown at the party as the fruit thief (both casualities forced by Stan)

Except for the walking out part. And everything else. He's more strict than Hank Hill, and more oblivious than Homer Simpson. Peter Griffin treats Meg the way Jack treated Stan.
@@Jeriun well atleast Peter was Meg secret friends
Oh definitely not
If you think about it, Stan was seeing his past though rose colored glasses AND the filter. Even though the filter was turned off he still has his internal nostalgia at play.
It’s kinda funny but also sad whenever stan gets hit with his own trauma. He processes it but never gets a chance to heal from it. He laughs then cry’s and sometimes converts the pain into pleasure. And he does what he can to stop from being hurt again
Exactly
That is kind of heartwarming knowing that a tree cares about you and has feelings for you 🥰😢
Man, homer Simpson and stan Smith have some of the most dysfunctional neglectful childhoods in a comedy series...
It's really sad how earnestly the Globe Trotters loved Stan, and how in the end he couldn't cope with that love so he kind of callously left them behind once he found out they didn't abandon him. It's like he sees codependency and coldness as the only true love in his life, and anything else is circumstantial. Sometimes I wish American Dad would play these characters' stories totally straight instead of just for laughs.
It’s nice how consistent American Dad is compared to Family Guy
2:34 well that's depressing.
Shoot, that first clip proved that Stan Smith was CIA material since he was a child.
10:56 actually kind of sad ngl
Also Stan at 8:29 looks like Sunny from Omori
Overall minus a few things Stan's childhood is very consistent
Stan and archer live very similar lives
"We even tried to adopt ya but I guess 12 Black Men attempting to take custody of a little White Boy wasn't a slam dunk back then..."
"Or even now, probably."
Stan being saved multiple times by all his imaginary friends always gets me. They always trip on it and then shoot themselves lol
3:55 he left that other cycle to his dad to teach him
To everyone reading this... It’s never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you're proud of, and if you find that you're not, I pray you’ll find the courage to start over. Stay blessed guys!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
🤮
"Daddy, will you read to me?"
"Who the hell are you?"
4:21 my favourite unexpected moment
I'm happy he has good continuity in terms of backstory
Thanks so much for making this!!
I do like how they represent emotional abuse, neglect and abandonment as trauma worthy as well since most people usually think of striaght up beatinga when they think of parental trauma and abuse
The idea of Stan getting his CIA training from taking out his mother's dates is pretty funny
3:08 is questionable
8:20 is something Reverse Flash would do.
Just love Stan as an 8 year old was able to kidnap and dump these guys on an island, lol
“Daddy will you read to me?”
_“Who the hell are you?”_
11:01 Alternatively, "Camp's over."
"Daddy, will you read to me?"
"Who the hell are you?"
darn..
Stan had a very strong childhood
Stan is a good man
My childhood is messed up to I was a victim of human trafficking but now I'm an adult and I learnd never to do the things those people did to me rise above i was and am to strong for that
I love you and I hope you’re well
@@Kelly-uw1xr thanx i really needed to hear that right now. I'm going threw a lot with my new meds and the server ptsd I'm going threw.
4:50 ohhhhhhh yeah… that’s my dad
When they did the priest bit I was thinking that I have seen this joke ten thousand-
"I seduced him. I dont know Why I wanted him, but I wanted him."
...Ok that got me. well played American Dad, well played.
Stan: Is it my fault?
Stan's Mom: *Looks at stan* Kinda 😭
That was messed up man
The tv having real westerns after the filter went down hits hard
Even the tree is a better father than mine
0:53 so Stan's been a CIA agent for his whole life
He was born to be one
If Stan was remembering it with nostalgia as seen by the filter making his memories colorful like the clips we’ve seen so far; does that mean his childhood was even worse
Jack: Get out of here I’m busy. Go play in your treehouse. 7:21
For a show not concerned by continuity (case and point: flashbacks of Stan's childhood featuring his dad in the early episodes show that he had both of his eyes when he abandoned him while later ones already have him the same eyepatch as he does in the present + the floating timeline causing Stan's formative years to take place 20 years later than they did at the beginning of the show) I appreciate how Stan's mom telling him he might actually responsible for his father's departure is actually validated in the episode "Blood Crieth Unto Heaven" where its revealed Jack had to leave because the police was after him for stealing fruit while dressed as a clown and got busted at Stan's birthday party when he invited the police chief and recognized the clown at the party as the fruit thief (both casualities forced by Stan)
4:26 slow down the speed to 0.25.
Ah
Thank you for that
They were surprisingly consistent with his backstory
You know, at least Stan didn’t grow up to become a
Dream Stan
It was sad when the store owner died
He’s competing with Doofinshmirts here
"Oh god, not that guy again."
God damn, couldn't even call him by his name.
