    Family Guy all the way for me!

    Though all 3 are good in their own way. Family Guy definantly wins out in my opinion!

    Family Guy :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,626 ✭✭✭smoke.me.a.kipper


    Futurama all the way!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,348 ✭✭✭radiospan


    Family Guy!!

    Never really liked Futurama.

    Good to see South Park Season 8 finally resuming last week.

    Family guy. Cant wait for the new season!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,047 ✭✭✭✭Stark


    Family Guy for sheer "have you in stitches" surreal humour. South Park for social commentary and condemnation of all things PC, mmmkay.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,488 ✭✭✭SantaHoe


    If I were to count up all the belly-laughs... SouthPark comes in first place by a decent strech... one of the very few shows that I'd laugh out loud at.
    They're all good shows though.

    Family Values all the way

    Family guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    south park, they are constently good and really current it takes them one week to draw up an entire episode


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,348 ✭✭✭radiospan


    BTW,
    Keifer Sutherland is in the first episode of the new season 4 of Family Guy. He's in it as a spoof of Jack Bauer supposedly.
    (possible Family Guy Season 4 spoiler)

    I voted Family Guy, but I was torn between that and Futurama.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,070 ✭✭✭✭Tusky


    Family guy is the only program that makes me laugh so much it hurts.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 175 ✭✭mwnger


    Although I really like Family Guy, it's not as good as some people (particularly on boards) make out.
    South Park gets my vote. For pure belly laughs and social commentary - even though I don't always agree with what they say. But Parker and Stone are quite upfront about how they strive to offend both right and left wing opinion.

    Oh yeah, the Stewie thing does get a bit tiresome sometimes, doesn't it?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,922 ✭✭✭Dave


    The stewie thing never gets old.

    Family Guy all the way.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,049 ✭✭✭gazzer


    Family Guy all the way... cant wait for Season 4.

    Did anybody notice in the new Simpsons episode on Sunday, when Lisa, Bart and Grandpa Simpson arrived in Miami and got out of the car, E-oor the donkey was caught in the wheels and just got up and walked off saying something (cant remember what it was)? It just reminded me of Family Guy so much.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,313 ✭✭✭sanncoo


    South Park!

    Yeah, that did remind me a bit of Family Guy.

    They didn't actually call the donkey Eeyore though - it's name was Eemore. And after he said "Everything always happens to Eemore!"

    Also, the Halloween episode on before it has Homer as Death (reminded me of the time Peter became Death). The Simpsons seem to steal quite a few things from 'Family Guy' (but most of them are probably co-incidence)

    I think one of the only moments of The Simpsons in the past couple of weeks to give me a real chuckle was in the new episode a week or two back - Homer and the spelling machine gadget he had. When he was asleep, he'd breath in and then out and press "Z.Z.Z.Z.Z.Z.Z....". Funny stuff!

    Oh my god they are all so good.
    I picked Family Guy though. Stewie is sooo funny


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    Family Guy for me, havent seen South Park in years, when is it on tv?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,424 ✭✭✭joejoem


    Family guy is my all time favorite program. I didnt know they were making another series, I heard it stopped after season three after being pulled for being too crude. BRING IT BACK!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    but dvd sales were so big they had to bring it back :)

    mine must be getting close to being worn out at this stage :D

    How can anyone find southpark funny,i find it seriously annoying,i thinks it is only for kids that dont get the brilliant comments and jokes from peter and stewy in family guy.
    Family guy is one of the greatest shows ever aired worldwide.

    South Park.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭Makaveli


    Family Guy.
    South Park is great, but Family Guy is just that little bit better.
    Quagmire is a legend.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,396 ✭✭✭✭kaimera


    family guy. legend == stewie.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,457 ✭✭✭Cactus Col


    surely the simpsons warranted a place in the poll ... bein the macdaddy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,147 ✭✭✭mise


    Definitely family guy.

    Has one of my favourite quotes:

    Officer in the court:
    Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you god

    Peter: I do,... you bastard

    Yeah, but it was really to settle a discussion myself and weerez had.

    About which of those 3 were the best... being the more obscure cartoons compared to The Simpsons.

    I thought Family Guy was the best of them - so this poll now proves i rule! :cool:

    I'd say family guy, but South Park comes in a close second. I don't think futurama can compare to either of the other two. Just not enough laughs out of Futurama, they seem to try to hard but never quite get there. As regards Family Guy, I think Stewie has to be the worst character in the show, plus I hate it when they sing songs in the show, really cringe worthy most of the time. Optimus Prime is a Jew, priceless.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 9,648 Mod ✭✭✭✭mayordenis


    futurama does'nt get enough credit, it is excellent.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,584 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    South Park.

    You're breaking my balls

    ahahahahaha so funny.

    you're breaking my balls here mike.

    they seriously get better every show.

    Randy Marsh is the funniest character in it or maybe the guy who owns city wok/airlines


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,905 ✭✭✭User45701


    There all good
    family guy for constant brillence
    southpark for some amazing episode
    futerama for the episode "where no fan has gone before"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,698 ✭✭✭IrishMike


    Southpark.
    Cripple fight in aisle 4, i repeat cripple fight in aisle.

    The show has mocked every single condition/minority at this stage, genius.

    Tough one to say , i really love south park but i would have to give the edge to Family guy there is so many great characters in it.
    The best thing about south park is cartman , where as family guy got loads of great characters like peter,brian, stewie quagmire (Don't know how he spells it).....
    Can't wait to see new series and also American Dad from same guys it supposed to be out some time early next year, round same time as series 4 of FG

    "Peter your drunk again , No i just wrecked tired from drinking all night"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 94 ✭✭weerez


    I really don't get Family Guy. The humour in it just doesen't do it for me. I much prefer South Park and Futurama (especially South Park). Still Family Guy beats new Simpsons


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,756 ✭✭✭vector


    Family Guy

    (South Park was good at first but wore off, Futurama is sort of wrong, like Deep Space 9, you can't quite put your finger on it but you know, yeah you know...)

    Family Guy Sucks and so do you. Ive had to resort to playground shenanigans, happy now?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,304 ✭✭✭✭koneko


    Seriously, people that dont like Family Guy, what's wrong with the world today.

    Family Guy rules all. Futurama and Simpsons come in second. Great Simpsons is better than anything, but it's never great anymore. Futurama was class. South Park is good but hit and miss, and just... you know... it's not Family Guy.
