Simpsons vs Family Guy

[rightwingnut]

Two of the funniest shows ever. I'm a loyal Simpsons lover, so I find it hard to call the Family Guy better, but, man, it's good stuff. My girlfriend votes for Family Guy...I'm torn.

Family Guy is awesome, for sure. But it hasn't had to show us 14(?) seasons yet. I think Simpsons will stand the test of time better. Call me a lover of the classics, but I've gotta give the nod to Simpsons

Simpsons got my vote. The newer episodes are really lacking though. Tonight's was medicore.

Just added an actual poll. Y'all may want to cast your ballot

Simpsons is aging, not enough fresh good humor. Family guy is amazing, smarter and funnier than the simpsons IMO.

 

[Dude]

Family guy in a blowout for me.

I like the Simpsons because of the seeming timelessness of it. However, the Family Guy takes place in RI......most of the accents are spot-on, by the way.....especially Peter's wife.......

I appreciate all the zany cultural references stuck into Family Guy, it is as if almost every scene is making some comment on a movie, or another cutural icon. Great fun. And who can resist a super genius baby with a superiority compex!

simpsons might be getting old, but its still funny. The problem with family guy is that there are no new ones. We have to wait until may to see new episodes of family guy, and then maybe, just maybe it will be better then simpsons. I doubt it though.

ahh! i'm too lazy to scroll down this far and missed the thread

i vote simpsons. my daughter who is four watches them and loves em, need i say more? she is a rather good judge of what is good and what is ***** when it comes to cartoons.

 

[rightwingnut]

I agree the Simposon's has been lacking lately, but if there was a "best of" contest, it'd be close.

 

[Dude]

MAY 1st, new season of Family Guy! I know all you Stewie freaks are impatiently waiting....I know I cannot wait. I own all the previous seasons on DVD and still find it funny after watching them time and time again....
I could go on with Stewie quotes all day...

 

[rightwingnut]

Cool...my g/f wants to buy the DVDs...I was thinking sure, I guess, but it just seems better catching on TV, I don't know why. But if you say you enjoy them over and over, we'll go ahead and buy 'em.
"I gotta stolen vehicle here."
"But this is my car."
"Suspect's getting beligerant."
"What?"
"Officer down."


Hey, Orr...I was trying to remember a line from an (old) episode I saw previewed...Peter said something like, "My wife doesn't like to watch me drink...I told her to go in the other room..." At least that's how I remember it...but I have a feeling I'm completely wrong...do you know what I'm talking about? What was the line?

I don't remember that one....I'll have to watch them all again....

Here's one of my favorites:

"Lois: That commercial was made by a man!
Peter: Of course it was made by a man Lois, it's not a delicious Thanksgiving dinner!"

Family Guy was good last night, didn't care much for American Dad.

One of my favorite Family Guy scenes is when that giant cockroach gets even and is sitting on the couch tapping his fingers saying "Goood, Goood"

I started a similar thread in another forum. Both shows are brilliant but I have to agree The Simpsons is becoming weak. It's been the best comedy in TV history and I watch it everytime I get. The first 10 or 11 seasons were all gold but recently I've felt them to be going downhill. Hey, it happens

Family guy last night was amazing. I was expecting a bit of a variation in humour from the previous years but nothing had changed It was still as crude and well presented as ever. Keep rockin' Seth. American Dad wasen't too appealing but I'll give it another try this week.

 

[Fillabong]

I voted Family Guy. Simpsons WAS a top notch show but FG is now better.

 

[Dude]

I think the new ones have been pretty good, the second definitely better than the first. So what does everyone else think?

I laughed out loud 5-6 times at the second one. That was a classic and will probably be a favorite for a while. Stewie doing the robot? Doesn't get much better than that!

BTW, did anyone recognize the voice for Mrs. Lockhart?

 

[rightwingnut]

I've been missing them... I think I caught one or two. American Dad is very weak. As far as "second attempts" at a show, Futurama is far superior to American Dad. And can't say I like the attacks on the political Right. No, sir, didn't like it.

I've got every episode saved on my TIVO. I'm going to put them on DVD soon--want a copy?

 

[rightwingnut]

Hell, yeah, I want a copy! Trade you for a six of my Saaz special.

Gotta vote simpsons...I do like family guy too but I agree with the "show me 14 years of solid show before you get my vote" sentiment.

 

[Cheesefood]

Although Simpson's Jumped the Shark about 5 years ago, I still give it to them. FG is OK, some stupid laughs, but does not have nearly the comedic depths of a typical Simpson's episode.

 

[rsitzejr]

Hmmmm, Maybe I should watch TV more? Naaaah

 

[DeRoux's Broux]

THE SIMPSON'S FOR SURE!!! how can you go against Homer on this one? DOH!

 

[Dude]

Family Guy was awesome last night. Anyone else see it?

marco...marco...marco...marco...marco...marco...marco...marco...marco...marco...marco... (Stewie playing Marco Polo with Helen Keller)

Do you get a beer mug for every 100 posts?

 

[El Pistolero]

Do you get a beer mug for every 100 posts?

No, gosh darnit

 

[Born Brewing Co.]

No, gosh darnit

Ah, I guess not, my logic would give you 5. So how do you get mugs. Sorry, I didn't mean to branch thread.

ORRELSE is a moderator...don't make fun of his mugs cuz he has the hammer.
