I think the organization had the name first...And from what I gather, whatever T-shirt sales, etc., they do is probably just to help offset operational costs.

Can't they both exist? American Dad the TV-show, American
Dad the website. Just as there is LIFE cereal, magazine,
the board game, etc.

...Then there's the little squabble over a British record
label (owned by a group that split up 26 years ago this month) and a computer manufacturer...

Yes, but the guy should have copyrighted the name if he intended to have products. NOW he comes out whining about it, when the show has been on for quite awhile?

Unfortunately, LIFE and APPLE are words, while American Dad is a phrase, so it may be impossible to share.
