I think American Dad is funnier than either Family Guy or The Cleveland Show.
Once Family Guy had secured it's legacy, pretty much all the good writers moved to American Dad. Depending on the writer(s), Roger the alien is one of the funniest characters on television.
I cite this gag as one of my favorites...
Oddly enough, I don't really like the show's titular character. Stan can be very funny, but his personality varies so dramatically on an episode to episode basis that I can't get behind him as a character. They really need a writer's bible, or perhaps less lethargic creative consultants.
