The Simpsons vs. Family Guy

Which show do you like better?

Family Guy just by a hair. I love The Simpsons so much, but there is just something about Family Guy, maybe it's the obscure 80's references, but it's just slightly better, IMO.

neither, i prefer King Of The Hill.

I pick Family Guy.I like it quite a bit better than the Simpsons.mc666-I like King of the Hill,too.Hank cracks me up on there.I love what he told Bobby in one episode,"If you wasnt my son,I'd hug ya."

Family Guy because it actually makes me laugh, unlike the Simpsons where nowadays it's kind of boring. The older episodes are still genius however.

Family Guy all the way

yeah, Hank Hill reminds me so much of my dad, may he rest in peace. conservative to the point of hillarity.

Family guy, sometimes it cracks me up to the point of tears.

Well I voted for the Simpsons (someone else did also but they are shy at admitting it)

Never did like King of the Hill but it was a close call between Family Guy & The Simpsons, I guess the simpsons is the one which is played the most over here (4 episodes a night) so i went for that, however the early Simpsons shows do frighten me due to the rough drawings.

I went with Family Guy. I love all those obscure references,musical numbers, and those out-of-left-field flashbacks ("this reminds me of that time I.....").I still watch and enjoy the Simpsons but Family Guy is the show I look forward to each week.

Family Guy. I dislike the Simpsons.

Long time Simpsons fan.

If you've never liked The Simpsons, I urge you to check out "Homer's Enemy". That episode should be liked even by the most vehement anti-Simpsons person.

I enjoy Family Guy but I've been a loyal Simpsons viewer ever since it first came on the air and I never miss an episode!! I can't wait for "The Simpsons Movie" to come out this summer!!

"Family Guy" is awesome. But "The Simpsons" gets my vote. Without "The Simpsons", "Family Guy" prob'ly wouldn't even exist.

Simpsons, by far. I can't really stand Family Guy anymore. I watched it in its original run, before it was cancelled, and thought it was hilarious. I continued to enjoy it after it was brought back from cancellation, but after a few episodes I noticed it had gotten extremely stale and the writing had become piss-poor. They reuse old jokes far too much for me to enjoy it. For pop-culture referances and satire that are actually funny, I watch South Park.

South park is amazing, I just bought seasons 6 and 8. I voted family guy. I've laughed to tears so many times with FG and never really with the simpsons.

family guy is good to watch if you have had a few drinks
but i watch the simpsons religiogy every dAY

However, the Simpsons is legendary and I like it. I also liked King of The Hill, Futurama, and The Critic (probably my favorite, though only slightly in front of Family Guy). I'm looking forward to new episodes of Futurama in '08 (there is a rumor that the Critic will also see new episodes next year , here's hoping it's true).

In order:
Futurama
Simpsons
King of the Hill
American Dad
Family Guy

The new full length Futurama Bender's Big Score DVD that came out is awesome.

I voted Simpsons.

I was a huge Simpsons fan for the longest time, but the last few years, I felt that the quality of the show has gone down dramatically. The movie was pretty good, but the show has overstayed it's welcome and should have gone out on top. Instead, the producers continue to beat that dead horse for all it's worth.

I've tried giving Family Guy a chance, but I don't like it. Just stringing together a bunch of 80's pop culture refrences with no other story line and ripping off other established characters seems too cheap & easy.

I'm not a regular viewer of King of the Hill, but when I do catch a show, I'm usually pretty entertained. Dell (or Dale?), the exterminator neighbor cracks me up with his paranoia.

I'm not a regular watcher of South Park either, but when I do catch an episode, I usually find myself cringing, then cracking up. I like that Parker & Stone push the envelope, but do it in a funny, although crude, and some-what intelligent manner.

Simpsons here.....

I also like King Of The Hill. Actually living here in Texas as a born and raised Ohioan I can step back and see real live versions of those characters living and working every day right in front of me. It's awesome!!

I appreciate Hank's steadfast loyalty to whatever he hitches his wagon to!!

Don't care for Family Guy that much....it has its moments but I think it relies (for me) too much on extreme distaste for laughs instead of good writing. Remember...it's just a personal opinion.....

THAT being said....the "dirty" old man provides some incredilbe one liners.....

Simpsons

The Simpsons. I like Family Guy a lot, too.

The newer seasons aren't the best though...curse syndication for replaying the same 5-6 damn episodes every time there's a break in the new eps.......

I vote The Simpons just because i'm more familiar with the characters and it's been around since i was in junior high.
