"American Dad Set to Return on Fox in 2026 Midseason"

The beloved animated series, *American Dad*, created by Seth MacFarlane, is set to make a triumphant return to Fox in 2026. This marks a significant homecoming for the show, which originally aired on Fox from 2005 to 2014 before moving to TBS until March of this year. Alongside *American Dad*, Fox will also be bringing back new episodes of MacFarlane’s other iconic series, *Family Guy*, during the midseason. This strategic move is part of Fox's broader effort to maintain its "winning position" in primetime television.

Fox Entertainment CEO Rob Wade expressed enthusiasm about the upcoming schedule, stating, "Building on our winning position in both key demos and co-viewing this season, Fox delivers a 2025-26 schedule that's filled with irreverence, fun, and much-needed laughter. Next year more than ever, we're bringing that promise to life with a terrific slate to delight our audiences across linear, Hulu, and beyond." This statement underscores Fox's commitment to providing engaging and entertaining content across multiple platforms.

In addition to the return of *American Dad*, Fox is making waves with new developments in its programming strategy. The network has announced the launch of its new streaming service, Fox One. This service will integrate news, sports, and entertainment programming into a single platform, offering both live streaming and on-demand access to the entire catalog of Fox brands. Furthermore, Fox One will provide the option to bundle with Fox Nation, enhancing the viewing experience within one unified platform.

While a specific premiere date for *American Dad*'s return to Fox has not yet been announced, fans can rest assured that the wait will be worth it. The show's catchy theme song will undoubtedly be on the lips of many as they eagerly anticipate its comeback. It's also likely that *American Dad* will be available on Fox One, though confirmation on this will come sometime next year.
