American Dad: The New CIA
A satirical animated short that uses absurdist humor to contrast a CIA operative's mundane domestic life with his covert work, establishing the show's comedic premise through irreverent character introduction.
The American Dad short film, which preceded the theatrical run of the 2005 feature Fever Pitch, is about Stan Smith touring his work days in the CIA and his "normal" everyday life.
