This is one of my favourite episodes, but the songs can get irritating after a while, but 'Daddy's Gone' is one of the best american dad songs. It might be worth the watch if you like musical episodes, plus Steves voice is perfect, it is like the chefs kiss. Principal Lewis is also very very funny at times, and 'Doing Research' is also a good song in my opinion. CeeLo green is also in this episode and I'm pretty sure he voices the hot tub, and I know he voices himself. So, overall it is a pretty good episode, but it can get really irritating at sometimes, but I would suggest you watch this episode.

The One With A Hot Tub...
taylorkingston20 September 2014
Warning: Spoilers
This episode is very good. What happens is that Stan is very stressed by his family and his other obligations, so the Smiths decide to get a hot tub. Which lets face it, hot tubs are pretty cool. Whilst shopping at Little Shop Of Hot Tubs, Stan is drawn to a used hot tub in the back room. They try to convince him out of buying it, but Stan gets it anyway. At first, Stan and Francine enjoy the tub and the relaxing sex they have in it. Awkward, cartoon sex. Francine starts to worry about the effect of spending all of the time in the tub is having on Stan and orders him to stay out of it too. That night, the hot tub calls to Stan and returns to it, annoying Francine. So Francine give him a choice. The hot tub or her. Stan stupidly choose the hot tub. So Francine packs up the kids, Klaus and Roger, and they leave to go to her parents house. Someone investigates the hot tub and finds out that it came alive after being struck by lightning and then it killed its original owner, and later escaped from a mental hospital. Wow, a lot to take in. Overall, I give this episode a 7 out of 10.

Featuring CeeLo Green as a talking, singing hot tub, this Little Shop of Horrors themed episode pays loose homage to its source material. This is one of the stand out episodes for the entire series. It's certainly quintessentially an American Dad episode, but goes beyond the typical musical fare to create an enticing musical episode. I don't want to spoil much, but urge you to watch.
Fantastic Episode

I remember people telling me that this episode was bad, but I say, it's a masterpiece!
The songs are brilliant, CeeLo Green is a fantastic guest star, and I love the songs in this episode, my favourite being the short, but catchy, Psychotic Hot-Tub.
The ending is also funny, it just ends with, "Yeah it's over, Stan's Dead", I laughed a lot when that happened.
Overall, it's my 2nd Favorite Episode.

This whole episode feels like a weird ad for CeeLo Green. Mediocre premise with unfunny execution, and a horribly unsatisfying ending. Also full of CeeLo and other characters singing, which is a nice, fresh concept for a one-off. But, it becomes overused after the 3rd song maybe 10 minutes into the episode.
It's just not worth the watch.

This episode was so good the first time it aired. Now, I'm in re-run heaven. Especially, on Adult Swim, where there are a few less beeps.
I know it's done along the lines of Little Shop of Horrors. But, the theme is a bit different with Little Shop of Hot Tubs.
There isn't a whole lot to say that wouldn't be some serious spoilers. So trust me when I say that I would do anything to see this over and over again. Wipe my family's memories, and watch it a few more hundred hours.
One of The Best music episodes I've ever seen. Though I am wondering about Rogers's "little bro, soccer bro" connection.
I'm scared.
