Five years after the cancellation of ''Hoosier Anchorwoman!'' 2013, Kendra moves to ''Queen of the Willis''. |

− | + | Stan Smith is the exaggeratedly [[masculinity|masculine]] husband of Francine and father of [[Steve Smith (American Dad!)|Steve]] and [[Hayley Smith (American Dad!)|Hayley]]. Though Hayley may not be Stan's [[family (biology)|biological daughter]]—Francine was revealed to have cheated on Stan at her [[bachelorette party]] in the episode "[[American Dad (season 8)|The Kidney Stays in the Picture]]"—Stan still regards her as such and refused to learn the results of a [[DNA]] test.<ref name="tvmuse1">{{cite web|url=http://www.tvmuse.eu/tv-shows/American-Dad_49/season_7/episode_16/ |title=Watch American Dad - Season 7 Episode 16: The Kidney Stays In The Picture |publisher=Tvmuse.eu |date= |accessdate=June 7, 2013}}</ref> As the Smith family's breadwinner, Stan is an agent for the [[Central Intelligence Agency|CIA]]. Tending to take extreme measures with no regard for others nor potentially disastrous consequences, Stan is portrayed as insanely drastic; endangering; rash; [[wikt: dog eat dog|dog-eat-dog]]; and both inconsiderate and insensitive of others.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://whysoblu.com/american-dad-volume-6-dvd-review/ |title=American Dad – Volume 6 (DVD Review) at Why So Blu? |publisher=Webcache.googleusercontent.com |date=May 3, 2011 |accessdate=March 1, 2013 |deadurl=bot: unknown |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20111122055556/http://whysoblu.com/american-dad-volume-6-dvd-review/ |archivedate=November 22, 2011 |df= }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:5oVWByE1PzEJ:www.plentyquotes.com/tvseries/American-Dad/American-Dad-16.html+American+Dad+insensitive+Stan+Smith&hl=en&gl=us&strip=1 |archive-url=https://archive.is/20130411015505/http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:5oVWByE1PzEJ:www.plentyquotes.com/tvseries/American-Dad/American-Dad-16.html+American+Dad+insensitive+Stan+Smith&hl=en&gl=us&strip=1 |dead-url=yes |archive-date=April 11, 2013 |title=American Dad quotes - page 16 |publisher=Webcache.googleusercontent.com |date=February 7, 2013 |accessdate=March 1, 2013}}</ref> Stan's mentality is of a staunchly [[conservatism|conservative]] [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican]] and self-proclaimed American patriot. His conservatism is expressed ludicrously with him often coming off as severely intolerant, [[wiktionary:self-abnegation|self-abnegating]], and wrongheaded.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://imemine98.com/dvdreviews/a/americandadv6.html |title=Tom's DVD Review Page - American Dad Volume 6 |publisher=Imemine98.com |date= |accessdate=November 5, 2013 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131029203440/http://imemine98.com/dvdreviews/a/americandadv6.html |archivedate=October 29, 2013 |df= }}</ref> All the same however, Stan has numerous alternate ways of taking drastic measures beyond politics. As examples—in the episode "[[American Dad (season 4)|Dope & Faith]]" when Stan found out one of his friends was an [[atheism|atheist]], he tried getting him to pray by blowing up his home, spreading the [[Avian influenza|bird flu]] at his restaurant, brainwashing his wife into thinking she was a lesbian, and taking his kids away; in the episode "[[American Dad (season 3)|I Can't Stan You]]", Stan evicted his entire neighborhood and his own family just for overhearing some of his neighbors gossiping about him behind his back; in the episode "[[American Dad (season 3)|Four Little Words]]", Stan framed his wife as a murderer all so as not to hear her say the words "I told you so"; etc. | |

Moreover, Kendra often proves to be insensitive, completely unfazed when fully conscious of the distresses, displeasure and sufferings brought upon and felt by others including her very own family. |

+ | Though Stan typically tries to effect a masculine image and repress his feelings, his emotions, sensitivity, and endearing side still manifest themselves from time to time. For example, on several occasions, it has been revealed that even as an adult Stan has desperately desired the fatherly love and attention that he never got as a child, such as in the episode "[[American Dad! (season 9)|American Stepdad]]" when Roger became his stepfather. | ||
− | + | At the same time, however, his incredibly drastic, dog-eat-dog, and inconsiderate qualities tend to show through in combination with his sensitive and redeeming qualities. For example, Hayley once told Stan, "Dad, I've never seen this side of you. It's so sweet." Stan playfully replied, "Well, if you tell anybody I'll kill you." The two laughed together for a moment before Stan suddenly took a serious, browbeating manner and added, "I'm serious, I will kill you. I will reach into your chest, pull out your beating heart and eat it. All of it, every last bit!" He concluded by affectionately stating, "Well, sweet dreams, angel." As another example, in the episode "[[American Dad! (season 3)|Oedipal Panties]]", Stan went to extremes to keep his mother, Betty, from finding a romantic partner for fear he would lose her. In the episode, Stan was revealed to have captured and detained all of Betty's former lovers to an uncharted island. | |

She changed her views on homosexuality, however, watching her competitors (Cindy Ward and Deborah Daniels). Stan's stance on homosexuality further softened in the episode "[[Surro-Gate]]" when Francine acted as a [[surrogacy|surrogate mother]] for gay couple Greg and Terry's baby. At the end of this episode, Stan realized what a loving family Greg and Terry were. |

− | + | After the first few seasons and as the series progressed, Stan was portrayed as growing out of these particular traits and they were largely dropped from his character. Branching out, he later began displaying his wrongheadedness and penchant for taking to extremes in numerous other ways beyond ultra [[right-wing politics]].<ref name="avclub5">{{cite web|last=McFarland |first=Kevin |url=http://www.avclub.com/articles/the-missing-kink,95977/ |title="The Missing Kink" | American Dad | TV Club | TV |publisher=The A.V. Club |date=April 15, 2013 |accessdate=May 25, 2013}}</ref> He has also exhibited instances of gullibility (like his son Steve) such as when he believed he was taking cold medicine when in fact he was smoking "[[crack cocaine|crack]]" as Roger nonchalantly points out. Hayley has also tricked him into buying mirrored sunglasses that wound up getting him kidnapped by a group of radicals. In another episode, Roger states to Stan that he has to give his champion racehorse "[[sexual stimulation|a full release]]", which Stan ultimately does so. Stan has also once drunk Roger's urine due to the alien telling him it was a fancy beer. The episode "[[Irregarding Steve]]" reveals that Stan believes that popcorn doesn't pop above sea level. In "[[Love, AD Style]]" when Francine points out if they added another "C" before the "K" in the acronym of the new car Stan wants to buy he says he doesn't know what she's talking about, clearly not realizing what the new acronym would spell out. In "[[Stanny Tendergrass]]" Stan thought he was able to afford a membership at Mr. Vanderhill's (Roger's) country club after working there thirty years at the cost of seven grand, completely unaware of the vast price inflation cost (two hundred grand) due to natural compound interests and stock marketing incomings until Steve told him. | |
