The FCC is proposing a fine of $25,000 to FOX because the network failed to respond to it’s questions regarding a scene of Stan, suggesting he masturbated a horse in the January 3rd episode of American Dad reports The Huffington Post.

The FCC claims the episode drew 100,000 complaints when Stan was told by Roger that to properly take care of the horse to keep it in top shape for a race he needed to not only brush and clean it, he also needed to “… give it a full release …” the scene eventually cuts to Stan hosing off with a garden hose.

FOX has filed a bid that the FCC limit it’s investigation to areas where complaints were filed which the FCC has rejected.

The 18th, and final episode of the 5th season airs tonight at 9:30pm, in which Roger turns 1601 years old.

It’s Roger’s birthday, and he begs to be roasted, but when he ends up devastated by the jokes, he vows to pull his life together. Things take a turn for the worse when Roger takes it one step too far, causing the Smith family to go on the run.

2 preview videos can be seen here.

Fox have released two previews of American Dad’s season finale “Great Space Roaster”, airing this Sunday. Also, throughout the episode Roger will be tweeting live.

In preparation for a neighborhood pool party, Stan tells his family to get in tip-top shape. But when an accident ruins the Smith family name, a humiliated Stan fakes his family’s deaths and moves everyone out of Langley Falls to escape his shame.
