No, seriously. My dad made me watch two episodes with him after waking up hung over at his New Years party. He said it was HILARIOUS.

It. Is. The WORST.

It's literally Big Bang Theory for NatSec Ghouls. It's about a divorced guy who's in the CIA but then learns his DAUGHTER IS ALSO IN THE CIA! Gasp!

Also it starts Arnold fucking Schwarzenegger who's like 500 but is doing James Bond shit, but every action scene they either have him in a weird getup or shot from a weird angle cuz they're clearly having some muscly stunt double doing that shit.

This seems like something the Chapo hosts would come up with as a joke.

It sounds bad, but it's it worse than Heil Honey, I'm Home?

I mean, as awful as that sounds I assume the writers were coming from the perspective that Hitler is bad but making a joke out of putting such an evil person in a comedic situation.

This show seems to unironically be trying to present a fun, friendly image of the CIA. Say what you will about "American Dad" but at least they make the occasional gag about how genuinely evil the CIA is as an institution.
