03.11.11 | Family Guy is garbage. |
mallen-
03.11.11 | simpsons in its prime is 100 times better than any family guy
plus family guy has been ripping off simpsons episodes/jokes for years |
Thane
03.11.11 | Simpsons all the way. Family Guy sucks. |
Tyrael
03.11.11 | New simpsons season was pretty bad. |
theacademy
03.11.11 | no way, man... simpsons has been pretty great lately compared to like seasons 18 - 20
regardless, simpsons at its worst >>>>>> family guy at its best |
ConsiderPhlebas
03.11.11 | I like the way FG takes the piss out of language. Either way, 20 years of Homer learning lessons is enough. |
Nagrarok
03.11.11 | Since Family Guy is basically a Simpsons rip-off there isn't much to discuss. |
doomvendingmachine
03.11.11 | What do ya'll think is the best Simpsons season? I was gonna get into some of the classic period stuff but I have no idea what would be a good starting place. |
Remer17
03.11.11 | I haven't been watching The Simpsons much in recent years like I used to but when I do catch new episodes they're surprisingly enjoyable. The Simpsons will always be the better show no matter what 14 year old kids like to say. |
Thane
03.11.11 | there are a few good moments in family guy (like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ETPfp3_Lhs ) but like academy said, simpsons at its worst > family guy at its best. |
Satellite
03.11.11 | the simpsons pre-2000 = one of the best comedies ever. it fucking sucks now.
family guy was never funny. |

03.11.11 | SIMPSONS DID IT! |
Remer17
03.11.11 | I can't say for sure what my favorite season is, but season 8 is definitely up there. The Beer Baron episode is one of my favorites. |
Baphomet
03.11.11 | love the simpsons but I'd rather watch Family Guy if I had to chose.
Idk, it's more my sense of humor. |
BallsToTheWall
03.11.11 | Family Guy is the worst show ever made. |
MUNGOLOID
03.11.11 | family guy was good. the simpsons will always be king. |
Athom
03.11.11 | seasons 3-8 (and half of season 9) beats pretty much everything |
Phideaux
03.11.11 | I like Family Guy better. Simpsons in its prime was really great though. |
zoso33
03.11.11 | FAMILY GUY but simpsons laid the groundwork i reckon |
ffs
03.11.11 | cartoons? feh, im not a child. |
Strider
03.11.11 | Simpsons season 22 is a bit crap, but the rest is pure gold. Family Guy isn't even funny.. |
Satellite
03.11.11 | somebody please explain the appeal of family guy to me. |
ConsiderPhlebas
03.11.11 | Simpsons laid the ground, but FG is much more subversive. South Park is the only show that actually improved as the years went on. |
iluvtweepop
03.11.11 | simpsons is better but family guys alright
futurama and american dad are the best though :DD |
ffs
03.11.11 | family guy can do all the adult/offensive jokes that the simpsons cant. thats basically the only reason it works. |
Satellite
03.11.11 | i've taken dumps that were more subversive than family guy |
ConsiderPhlebas
03.11.11 | Having a gay baby in love with a male dog seems pretty subversive, or is that normal in america. Your shit must be somethin'. |
Strider
03.11.11 | i've taken dumps that were more subversive than family guy [2] |
Satellite
03.11.11 | just because something's absurd/outlandish doesn't mean it's subversive. |
ConsiderPhlebas
03.11.11 | Only because you shit into your brain cavity |
MO
03.11.11 | The first couple seasons of Family Guy were ok cause it was fresh, now they just make stupid jokes for the sake of making stupid jokes. The Simpsons will always reign supreme, had alot more emotion to it. |
ConsiderPhlebas
03.11.11 | Is it a social norm in the US to depict infantile sexuality, particularly homesexuality? How about a show that deliberately avoids any sense of moral arc, in favour of the mockery of social and linguistic traditions? If you can't see that it's more subversive than a show that had Tony Blair guesting on it, then you and your shit should have a nice day. |
Colliiiin
03.11.11 | Definitely Simpsons, it's just fucking classic no matter how lame some of the new episodes are and Family Guy to me is pretty low grade humour. For best/favourite seasons of Simpsons, season 6 is pretty solid the whole way through. |
Thompsonhunt
03.11.11 | both get boring as shit, but I've definitely enjoyed Simpsons a lot more. |

03.11.11 | Overall futurama gets it. But seasons 3-8 of the Simpsons are the best tv ever. People who like family guy are the worst kind of people. |
james420
03.11.11 | simpsons used to be the best ever |
Remer17
03.11.11 | I disagree couldwinarabbit. I think child molesters are the worst kind of people. |

CrownOfMagnets
03.11.11 | The new Simpsons episodes are still funny every now and then. Family Guy was once at its prime a couple years ago but its over now. The writers have to use musical numbers because they don't know how to write jokes anymore. |
NigelH
03.11.11 | First couple seasons of Family Guy before it got canceled were golden. Now it sucks. First 10-12 seasons of the Simpsons were golden too, but now it sucks. South Park FTW. |

03.11.11 | family guy used to be so funny, then it got shitty in a hurry. Old Simpsons is classic tho. |

03.11.11 | a mediocre Simpsons episode is better than the best Family Guy episode. |
SloppyMilkshake
03.11.11 | Yeah...newer seasons of The Simpsons is just hilari-bad. But hey, what can you do when you lack pretty much all of the writers that made the show brilliant?
Also, Seasons 4-7 is perfection. |
SloppyMilkshake
03.11.11 | ^Not to mention...the animation in Family Guy is fucking awful. |
theacademy
03.11.11 | lmao @ family guy being characterized as "subversive"
if any of you are old enough to remember when the simpsons was controversial in the U.S., you're probably lol'ing also |
theacademy
03.11.11 | also futurama and south park are the only toons that come close to the simpsons, and really its only south park + the simpsons that you can sit down and watch with your family... girls just hate futurama |
robertsona
03.11.11 | insert me being like "no you can't sit down and 'watch south park with your family' shut up" |
Humanatee
03.11.11 | family guy sux |
theacademy
03.11.11 | chances are if you live in the northeast your parents thought seasons 1-7 of south park were just as funny as you did, but for completely different reasons (reasons you began to pick up on around season 7) |
theacademy
03.11.11 | @andcas the show is already playing + i have tickets.
WITH MY MOM. (not even joking) |
Remer17
03.11.11 | Yeah I got my Book of Mormon tickets too. It's supposed to be really good. |
robertsona
03.11.11 | you guys have weird families |
BigHans
03.11.11 | Southpark destroys them both, but I do enjoy both shows |
theacademy
03.11.11 | tickets are probably expensive but i only think that because i havent been to a broadway show in over a decade... mom paid :D... im going to one of the april shows |
theacademy
03.11.11 | lol @ robertsona being one of those hypercritical conserva-christians... pretty typical of animal collective fans |
Dreamflight
03.11.11 | Family Guy all the way.
However, if the question would be Futurama or Family Guy, I'd have a hard time answering that. |
theacademy
03.11.11 | you shouldn't tho |

You're dumb. Obviously Simpsons and obviously Futurama. |
ConsiderPhlebas
03.11.11 | Futurama ran out of steam too quick. Great at the start, though. |
Dreamflight
03.11.11 | Futurama is much more balanced imo, its concept is a mix of emotions, you can laugh like no tomorrow, take something from it and sometimes you can even cry (Dog's episode). South Park and FG's main strenghts are also their weaknesses in the end, Trey and Matt overuse irony (can't recall how many times I watched Randy screaming "OMG THAT CAN'T BE HAPPENING"), the same way Seth overuses non-sense. I guess, one's mood also counts in judging which one is better. |
