Family Guy has been consistently funnier than the other two, however South Park has just outed it recently with its fantastic satirical humour.
I never understood what the deal with The Simpsons was. Even when it was funny (which was only for around 4-5 years, now that I think about it. The first two seasons were awful) it never touched Family Guy and only really rivaled the dismal original premise of South Park.

On top of that, South Park can be completely random and out there, or a fantastic social satire, and it does both of those things far better than Family Guy or The Simpsons.
Family Guy, South Park second, Simpsons last (I don't find the show funny).

I never understood Family Guy. I like Stewie and Brian, but they're not enough to carry the show, and even Stewie gets old sometimes.
In fact, the South Park Mohammed episode made fun of Family Guy, and its parody Family Guy clips... really looked like Family Guy. It does the same stuff over and over again, interjected with random jokes/flashbacks that make no sense. Just a lot of random and/or slapstick humor.
I agree that the old Simpsons would give South Park a run for its money. However, now South Park is king. Very few things can beat stinging South Park satire.
South Park has actually gotten funnier over the years where as The Simpsons has gotten stale. Nothing will ever touch Seasons 3-7, though.
Family Guy isn't funny.
i like them all for different reasons. overall i say southpark.
Family Guy may say the same type of jokes, but most of them are very funny. I think family guy is by far the best out the three.
Now, I seen the South Park Mohammed episode and let me tell you, I could stop laughing for one second. It was the perfect retaliation against the force which is Family Guy. And, just last night on UPN, the episode when Butters was coming up with ideas to reck havic, His partner would say Simpson did it all. And what can I say, he was right. The reason people like Simpson is because most of the shows of it's kind are doing to things they have already done.
Me personally, I stop likeing the simpsons a long time ago. There's a few episodes I still like, but overall the worse out the three.
Though I think Family Guy can be funny when the jokes aren't utterly random.

The Simpsons may not be as funny or as good as it once was but it's 'classic' episodes were far better than the cream of the South Park crop

The Simpsons are still great. The Simpsons has been (except the first few seasons) better than Family Guy and South Park in the past and still is. However, Futurama is clearly the greatest of them all. Family Guy is funny, but sometimes it's just way too random without any actual point, in which cases the critizism given in the Muhammed episodes of South Park is very valid. It clearly has the least intelligent/clever humour out of these shows, but it still manages to be funny.

I like myself a nice episode of Family Guy, Futurama and American Dad. South Park is decent sometimes but mostly it is just annoying unfunny. Never been a really big fan of The Simpsons, although I admit it has had its moments.
Futurama (cos i dislike all the ones discussed)
Its a tough one. I think Family Guy is probably the most consistent, and I've laughed harder at individual jokes in it that than I have in South Park. The Simpsons, whilst less consistent as a series has far more episodes which are funny and clever throughout. South Park is awesome for going full on when it picks a target, it can be clever with it too.
My vote goes to The Simpsons almost just out of loyalty. The other two are just shows, albeit courageous ones that deserve a lot of respect. The Simpsons is something a little more.
I say what I think. If you disagree, then that is up to you.
simpsons no contest. over 300 episodes and still comeing up with new episodes and a movie soon. even though i love family guy also i see a lot of things that simpsons did first and then kinda thrown into family guy as well. but then again as the one southpark episode said "simpsons did it". simpsons find ways to be make similar episodes and still be original. every episodes starts off one way and then changes completey.
