I always interpreted Klaus being in the Smith’s custody as a result of Stan “drawing the shortest straw” and being saddled with taking care of him after they lost his human body.

[@Jo-zi5px]

That looks like a game Bullock would make them play 😂😂💯💯. That’s a very good theory , never thought about that one 🤗

I want to see the origins of Klaus getting in Stan’s custody now. Damn you, you made me like Klaus more

[@Jo-zi5px]

@@peterversionone you gotta love Klaus 🐡🤷🏻‍♀️🤣. What I admire is that he’s the most honest when it comes to just speaking his mind and telling it like it is 😅 he doesn’t care anymore since he knows his life will continue in a bowl. Can you imagine the frustration after being a human, flawed or not. He’s from a different time and a country that indoctrinated him from an early age (eg the sharing episode and coming from the nazi era ), to act this way also. Stan could’ve definitely changed him back a long time ago, but I think he’s frightened of Klaus his brainpower. Remember that episode when he took over the whole town slowly after Francine’s dinner party 🤣🤣🤣🤣. That was a good episode. Only for her and Roger to break the spell after broadcasting what a boring a-hole he actually is. So yeah, gotta admire his skills 🙈🤣🤣🤣❤️

[@peterversionone]

@@Jo-zi5px your saying the nazi era. You do know the U.S. sided with Nazi’s after WW2. I would like to see Stan’s face if they bring up that bit of history. (Operation paper clip) I want to see Stan always almost getting his finger bitten, and when Klaus sees Francine before the Happy Hayley, he gets happy.

I don’t think they hate Klaus. They take him for granted cause he’s a fish and easy to dismiss and/or bully. He’s also a jerk a lot of the time so he certainly deserves some of what he gets. If they hated him, they would have gotten rid of him a long time ago.

[@alexisdogbo7958]

While I agree that he deserves some of it , A lot of it can end up feeling undeserved to me because the rest of the smiths are just as bad if not worse that’s klaus is on a daily basis. And they do not receive anywhere near the same amount of punishment for they’re behavior. Roger being by far the biggest offender

[@draculastraphouse7863]

No he's a jerk BECAUSE they bully him, that's why sometimes he gets 'revenge' on them in some episodes

[@jfournerat1274]

Well it is implied that he is anti semtic and is a Nazi sympathizer and a Neo Nazi as he defends Nazi Germany and ww2. In addition his grandfather was a train conductor at Auschwitz thus implying that he was probably anti semtic and may have transported countless innocent people possibly as many as hundreds of thousands or even over a million people to the Auschwitz concentration camp where over 1.1 million of them including a million innocent Jewish people were killed thus making him complicit in their deaths. In addition there is a theroy that another one of his relatives may also have patrcpited in the Holocaust. In one episode there was a police officer or detective named Goldberg who was a Holocaust survivor and in a flashback he and his dad were hunted by Nazis one of whom spoke in German and his father was likely killed by the Nazis. There is a theroy that the Nazi who spoke in that flashback and was probably the one who killed Goldbergs father was a relative of Klaus either his father or uncle or great uncle or cousin.

Yeah true, also their universes kinda colide sometimes. And if Hailey is one then why couldn't Brian be one too? What if Brian is put to netralise the evil side of Stewie?

[@dramaticvirghoe]

ooo this is a good theory

[@the6597]

This video has made me genuinely consider Klaus’ psychology. So I think when he was human he was a decent, intelligent guy, but Elsa’s betrayal + losing the Olympics + losing his body + being forcibly trapped in a fish in a small bowl with limited movement options + being forced to live with a family that ignore/bully/take out their problems on him all greatly degraded his mental health, to the point he's more selfish, miserable, mean, impulsive, stupid, creepy even, all to cope with it. From the therapy episode, we see that on some level, he wants to help and cares about the Smiths by being their therapist and call out Roger for his bad advice. But they still disrespect/ distrust him, leading Klaus to fall back into his rash, bad decisions to get what he wants by spreading all of their personal secrets, only making things worse and leading the Smiths to dispise him more. Dan the Man said Jeff was the most tragic character, but at least Jeff got to live happily with his wife and be positive despite what he went through. With Klaus, he remains stuck in his situation, always doomed to eventually ruin whatever good things come his way from his own stupid decisions, selfishness, and misery. We see the Smiths dislike him time and again even though Roger has consistently done worse things than he's ever done (heck, Roger’s the whole reason Jeff’s story happened in the first place). It's likely because Roger can defend himself and could greatly harm them if he wants, but Klaus is trapped in his frail goldfish body, so he's an easy target. In the end, Klaus is in my opinion the true most tragic character of American dad. He's a prisoner, a victim that was screwed over and wronged, but eventually degraded into his own worst enemy. Teased, bullied, harassed, and though he isn't a good person in the slightest, he ultimately didn't deserve any of this. Thank you for coming to my TED talk

[@michaelfragoso6572]

I remember Klaus did hypnotize the entire town, he also tortured Steve, Hayley, Jeff, Steve by inviting creepy people to S A them, he also torture Steve in the wild woman episode

[@warwulf1889]

My personal opinion has always been that the Smith's keep Klaus around as a means to a superiority complex. They just want to always feel superior to someone. And since Klaus is the most useless and defenseless person in the house. They'll always have someone that they can shit all over whenever they're feeling down.

[@bluebeka2458]

No actually that's Roger. Well Roger has all the complexes. At once. Idk how that's possible.

[@ReeN1995]

@@bluebeka2458 They did make an episode where Klaus is the Glue that holds the family together too. They just missed Roger but when Klaus left the family fell apart.

[@CallMeFreakFujiko]

There are some big differences between Meg and Claus that I don't think some people think about. -Meg started out as kind of a daddy's girl and gradually got written as a punching bag character, where Claus was a piece of shit from the start so him becoming a "punching bag" kind of felt justified. -Meg started out as a minor in the show where Claus started as a full grown man. She's still at the age where she's learning where Claus is way past that. (This was briefly mentioned in the video.) Probably the biggest one- Meg was born into the family who treats her like a punching bag. Claus was not. It's just kind of implied that the Smith family got stuck with him and the CIA knows it so they can't exactly get rid of him. (Besides that one time.) Claus did get the shittiest end of the stick, but the Smiths probably didn't consent to having to take care of him either. -Despite that and being a jackass from the very beginning, he still gets more respect from the family who just kind of got stuck with him than Meg does from the family who brought her into the world.

[@NemFX]

I got the impression that they found themselves stuck between a rock and a hard place. It's like "okay, so technically we're harbouring a fugitive, who can't help us with anything, and we can't really do much with him, so it's like a bad house guest who won't leave.."

[@thenerdbeast7375]

Because they are all terrible people and Klaus is an easy target because he is physically at their mercy, next question.

With how the Cia runs in the show Stan was just that weekends turn to watch Klaus for summer break and just kept forgetting to take him back

[@christinalittleton3771]

The Smiths to Klaus (who used to be a man): Shut up, Klaus. You're just a fish. The Smiths to Reginald (who used to be a man): Hey, Reginald. How are the missions/CIA parties? They've never told Reginald "Shut up, Reginald. You're just a koala."

[@garuelx8627]

They don't even acknowledge Reginald's existence anymore.

[@EPGamer22]

Now you can't really give klaus faults knowing that roger always screws over the family or be a jerk to them or always almost killing them

[@MitchieDBBC]

10/10 believe that Klaus was swapped from Goldfish to goldfish to keep his brain alive, or that they did the mind swap so often that the CIA has a surplus of goldfish. Bullok or the science division needed a prize for their annual family fun fair so they used the goldfish amd Klaus was accidently put into it. Lets say Hailey wanted a prize and Stan won him. It would make Klaus' introduction into the Smith family both degrading and anti-climatic, par for the course on Klaus' life. We can throw a scene where Stan tried to return him, but Bullok produces an arbitrary contrsct that Stan signed along with his NDA with the CIA that prohibits him from returning prizes back to the CIA. Further degrading his character

I didn't learn to drive until I was 34, which was after I served in the Army (and central Texas is tough without a car), so 24 is fine. If you do decide to learn, I advise finding an instructor who is accepts you starting at a slow speed, and won't push you to drive at normal speeds until you are ready. My first car was a smart car and it was perfect for getting comfortable with driving. I now have a hybrid corolla (that I just paid off today woohoo), but it took me a while to get comfortable with a car that big. Granted, a car isn't absolutely necessary in North Jersey, but it has its conveniences.

[@pickyphysicsstudent201]

When a bunch of kids play football regularly, it is fairly often for one kid to never get the ball. Despite them being a decent player, in an open position, etc, the other kids just won't pass it to him for whatever reason. When he does get the ball (once every fourth game if that) he can only hold onto it for 2 seconds before everyone else barrels down on him and he's forced to pass it away. When this happens and he does get the ball, he's learnt to "live fast die young". Either guard it with your life or boot it just cause you finally can. I know this because I was that kid and I see that in Klaus. Whenever Klaus gets the spotlight he has to make the most of it. Klaus has to scoff down every scrap. When he gets a human body he has to indulge it while he can. If he played his cards right & played for the long game, he'd be able to make the best of a bad situation. He'd probably be human again but because of being trapped as a fish & spat on daily, he cannot escape the viscious cycle. It's really dark. I can't blame him for how he is, even if he is mean because the circumstances kind of pushes him towards that.

[@toushin1000]

Mused and Abused shows that Klaus is his own worse enemy. While it is easy to dismiss and/or bully him he is incredibly entitled and annoying so even when you do treat him better he ultimately ruins it. I see it as a combination of everything kitty said. The smiths originally just dismissed him as a talking fish stan brought home, but the longer he stayed there the more they opened up to him only to realize he’s Klaus once he’s finally welcomed as a member of the family. You can’t give an inch with Klaus because he would take a mile. Look at what happened when steve let him sleep in his room. Stan comes across more as the shows designated lightning rod then Klaus as kitty stated the whole family falling apart when he’s gone was played for comedy when done with Klaus but it is consistedly played for drama with stan. Stan can’t five minutes to read a book without his family killing themselves through sheer stupidity.

[@bluebeka2458]

I mean, he's in a fish body. No wonder he's bitter and salty. I kinda thing that's justified why he's like that. He holds a lot of deep hatred over the fact that he's a useless fish now. If you think about it... all the characters from American dad are justified for the way they are. Stan with his possible trauma from his job and his childhood trauma, wanting to be the head of every discussion because he needs to take charge. Also not to mention, but his colegues are also as immature as he is. Possibly for the same reason. Francine trying to be a good mother, but secretly wanting to be her own person. Also the fear of losing her loved ones. Hailey for trying to be the rational one but hides deep insecurites because of her father. Fighting the system but in reality could be an excuse to fight her own father, because he works with the system. Steve for being immature but having his own qualites as being pretty smart. Sometimes even lecturing his own father. But unable to fit his father dreams even if he tries but always being called weak by him. And Roger a literal psychophat addicted to any substance known by man. Maybe his character could be due to his substance abuse. And let me tell ya, if you would have the chance to live among humans for that long as Roger i think you'll be there too. Because he can't die and is ptobably the most fun he has when he's under the influence. Everything becomes predictable and monotone after a while.

Okay NOW we want to hear your German accent. Speaking of accents, in the German dub Klaus actually had a Saxon accent. Fun fact, there are two Frankfurts in Germany and he couldn't possibly have studied at either city: The Frankfurt that had a university in the eighties is in the west and the one in the east only had one founded in 1991 after 180 years of no uni whatsoever. There's also a popular campfire song that claims the reason there are two Frankfurts is because it's actually just one city but really really really huge.

I honestly don’t know why Stan think that he’s a Nazi or believes in the beliefs of Nazis just because he lives in that country

[@polocatfan]

Klaus is definitely a nazi. He's said nazi stuff before without any form of irony.

[@jfournerat1274]

Well it is understandable why Stan thinks that Klaus is a Nazi. Klaus has been known to have made anti semtic comments in several episodes.

[@extremeactionstudio4285]

Thanks for letting me know. I’m fairly new to family guy and American dad, so I haven’t watched that many episodes.

[@jfournerat1274]

@@extremeactionstudio4285 you are welcome.

At least Steve got a good future .

[@diamantemrobinson]

I don't think they hate him they just love picking on him. However I do find it weird how so many of you are blaming him the actual victim here. The CIA, the smiths, and Roger are all in the wrong here. Klaus is a victim people.

Stan is The crimson chin 😂😂😂

[@gamemasternintendoo]

I don’t think that they hate Klaus. I think that Klaus, just like Meg from Family Guy, is the Smith family’s buffer. It was proven in the episode where he fakes his death and puts his mind in the body of a nun, that without Klaus to take out their aggression on, that the Smith family would self destruct, just like the Griffin’s. Basically what I’m saying is that the Smiths hate each other, and take it out on Klaus. Is Klaus annoying as hell. Yes. Yes he is. But if we compare Roger and Klaus, then Roger is way more annoying than Klaus is. Hell, Roger has done more things to the Smith family that he would deserve the hatred from them more than Klaus. 😊

apparently im supposed to write "niklaus" so there..... doesnt that mean victory of the people in greek???

[@KittyMonk]

Maybe, I was trying to reference Vampire Diaries because whenever I typed in Klaus on google images, he was the only one to pop up

[@sinnamonsol]

I cannot be the only one who thought this video was going to be about the band the smiths

[@deffnot_tee]

Niklaus! I did always want to know why klaus lives there since we got a backstory for roger. and the episond where he's dating roger truamtized me 😭😭😭

[@dylanthomas385]

Yess he does bring in on him self unlike Meg who’s just hated for being better at stuff

[@roycead13]

honestly yeah there was a new episode when Francine got stan beat up and they broke his jaw

[@dre691]

Klaus is their Meg

[@alexyancy6018]

It makes no sense. Roger is 10 times worse than Klaus and the smiths dont hate him. (Yes hes hilarious) But still, theres no reason why Roger, judged by actions would be loved and Klaus would be hated😅

[@mevavideos5922]

I think they’re afraid of Roger and that’s why they just accept his behavior.

[@astrisperspecto4130]

Correctio: West Germany was under the government of the *allied forces*, not the US alone.

[@sean.furlong1989]

24:24 Klaus wasn't invited to the roast and Roger bluntly told him it is because he hates him. Not out of spite but as a fact.

[@savharris5702]

Klaus is legit my favorite character, regardless

[@martialartsNerd10]

Has anyone else noticed that he's being treated slightly better in the current season of AD or is that just me?

[@atfnitarian]

I’ve been waiting on this one

[@psychobrando9230]

fish are actually not that bad to hold in my opinion
