Possibly the funniest recurring character on American Dad. Voiced by Forest Whitaker, Turlington is a detective of various employers who speaks in a very low voice and is suspicious of nearly everyone. A running gag is that he is slow to react and forgetful of trivial items, which pertain no usefulness whatsoever to his investigation, allowing suspects to get rid of any incriminating evidence. He is also seen often during a time of distress or extreme relief engaging in a sorrowful, half-sobbing dialogue with one of his dead parents. Episodes of Turlington's apearence include: Chimdale, Live and Let Fry, and Meter Made.
Turlington: Mama? If you can hear me mama? It's Daniel. I WANT THAT SANDWICH!
