American Dad! season 3

The third season of American Dad! first aired on the Fox Network in nineteen episodes from September 10, 2006, to May 20, 2007, before being included in two DVD box sets and in syndication. The series focuses on the eccentric upper middle class Smith family in a fictionalized version of Langley, Virginia and their six housemates: Father, husband, CIA agent, and Republican, Stan; his wife and housewife, Francine; their liberal, hippie, college-aged daughter, Hayley; their dorky high-school-aged son, Steve; the family's unusual goldfish, Klaus; and flamboyant, master of disguise alien, Roger.

The season received mixed reviews from critics, who praised the series’ ability to "(avoid) being a repeat of the same concepts and techniques (of Family Guy)". Criticism of the season mostly went to the series’ refrain from political humor, and becoming "just another TV comedy."

Season three contains some of the series' most acclaimed episodes, including "The American Dad After School Special" and "Lincoln Lover". The third season was nominated for an Annie Award at the 34th Annie Awards for writing. The season also received a GLAAD Media Award nomination for Outstanding Individual Episode.

The Volume Two DVD Box Set was released in Region 1 on May 15, 2007, Region 2 on May 28, 2007, and Region 4 on May 21, 2007. The first nine episodes of the season are included in the volume. The remaining ten episodes of the season were included in the Volume 3 DVD box set, which released in Region 1 on April 15, 2008, Region 2 on May 12, 2008, and Region 4 on May 14, 2008.
