The Simpsons or Family Guy?

[Pumpkin]

Both have been on way too long, but which do you prefer?

I'll probably be in the minority here and say Family Guy

[Mo-Nercy]

The Simpsons. Though I don't watch it anymore now and though I probably came to like Futurama a lot more, it was a massive part of my childhood. I still have a bunch of old episodes recorded on VCR somewhere.

I once made a very funny Simpsons quote to someone and they told me they dont watch tv or movies. I had very little to speak to them about afterwards

[Agent Proto]

The Simpsons was great back in the early days. However, I'm not saying that it's bad now. The last couple years were pretty awful though. Family Guy isn't much better.

[Ayen]

Family Guy.
Homer: Why you little--! *strangles*
*chokes*

[Shorty]

We weren't allowed to watch The Simpsons when we were kids and consequently, I didn't really develop and interest and I've seen very little of it. So against the majority, I have to default to Family Guy.

[Vermachtnis]

Simpsons, like a lot people I grew up with them. It's a year younger than me. And the blame rests solely on them for my love of the saxamaphone.

[Ergroilnin]

Both.

[The Captain]

No contest. The Simpsons, without which there would be NO Family Guy. Or Futurama. Or South Park Or Archer. Or.....

For a stretch of about 7 years (Seasons 3-10) The Simpsons were just about the perfect TV show mixing beyond sharp satire with wonderful voice acting and just enough heart.

Take care all.

I gotta go with Simpsons, it was here first.

Also:

And then came the greatest thrill of my life...

"Hello, Homer, I'm George Harrison."

"Oh my God. Oh my God. Where did you get that brownie?!"

"Over there, there's a big pile of them."

"OH MY GOD!"

"What a nice fellow"

[fat_moogle]

HE'S, A, FAMILYYYYY , GUUUUUYYYY!

Hands down. Sure I used to enjoy Simpsons, but I really don't find them that funny anymore. They've lost a certain...appeal. Family Guy still manages to make me laugh, although there are some episodes that I find a bit crap.

Edit: Just to reiterate, I voted for "Fmily" Guy =p

[Pumpkin]

Yeah I typo'd >.>

[Del Murder]

This poll would get much different results depending on where you asked it. Anyone born before 1990 who says Family Guy is dead to me.

[Pheesh]

It genuinely surprises me that Family Guy can even be considered in the same breath as The Simpsons. As The Captain said, based purely on the way they paved the way for everything after them The Simpsons is the hands down winner. Also, The Simpsons was only good for an absolute maximum of 10 seasons (and even then I personally would only say about 6), and it is still the king. That should prove how good of a show it was in its prime.

[Jinx]

Neither. I absolutely hate Family Guy, and Simpsons hasn't been good for the last 10-15 years.
