    Family Guy - No cartoon has made me laugh out loud like this.
    South Park - I've begun to appreciate the immaturity, and I love it.
    Simpsons/Futurama - Simpsons is classic, Futurama is fresh.

    I'd say
    1. Family Guy
    2. Southpark
    3. Futurama
    4. Simpsons

    It's close between Family Guy and Southpark though. You've gotta love Cartman and his ignorant, racist, biggot ways. But Peter's stupidity takes the lead.

    1. South Park (continues to improve and push the boundaries even after 9years)
    2. Simpsons (was the king of tv for a long time before it retooled as TheHomerSimpsonShow)
    3. Futurama (4 quality seasons ... but that's still just 4 quality seasons)
    4. Family Guy (definetly has its moments but generally a pointless, uninvolving mess)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,541 ✭✭✭WarZoneBrother


    1.SouthPark
    2.Futurama (just because its cool not really funny though)
    3.Family Guy (hilarious)
    4.The Simpsons (i do not like it because none of it is good anymore)

    It crazy when you see no one voted for the simpsons in the poll. :)

    Maybe indication of crap it has got.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 814 ✭✭✭Raytown Rocks


    1.Family Guy ( outrageously funny)
    2.Futurama
    3.South park
    4. Simpsons.

    Family guy is pure class, have been watching some of the new episodes recently and ther are class.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,751 ✭✭✭Ste-


    Family guy, South park, futurama then last the simpsons.
    The simpsons was the best in the height of it. but now it's just long in the tooth.
    17 seasons ? and only halfway through, come on Groening kill it.

    You're giving futurama credit for being cancelled?


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


    Futurama has more heart than any of the others.

    yes i'm giving credit to them for stopping. i don't know about the rest of you but season 4 of futurama was poor in comparrision to 1, 2 and 3. it's still a great show and i don't know whether they cancelled it because they knew it was bad or whatever but it seems that way to me.

    i still stand by my list


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 545 ✭✭✭OY


    It has gotta be the Simpsons, with the exception of the later seasons. In it's prime the Simpsons was just class. And i do not know about you guys but there is so many lines that come into my head from the Simpsons all the time.

    And lets face it... without the simpsons none of the other shows would exist.


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


    1. South Park (series 9 has been sublime)
    2. Family Guy (almost as good as South Park, not quite there)
    3. Futurama
    4. The Simpsons


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,502 ✭✭✭MrPinK


    1. Family Guy - I can't think of any other programme that has made me laugh as hard
    2. South Park - amongst the crudeness is some of the finest satire of TV. And the crudeness is great too.
    3. Futurama - Simpson's style humour with a bit more edge. Shouldn't have been the one to be axed.
    4. Simpons - Sorry, but you can't just pretend the last 7 seasons didn't happen. They've dragged down the show.

    A lot of people give this arguement and I really don't see the merit of it. Without Star Trek: The Motion Picture, there would never have been Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. That doesn't make the first one any less **** though

    1. Simpsons THE BEST AND ALWAYS WILL BE.
    2.family guy Funny but without point , a bit thick really.
    3.futurama not funny but entertaining.
    4south park crap , disgusting and boring and hurts my eyes.

    Come on People, how can you turn your back on the simbos'
    Maybe you were too young when you were watching it to see how hillarious and intelllectually clever that show was and still is!

    See my attachment for some of the best to refresh your memory.



    Edit: and heres a link just to prove how brilliant the simpsons really are, some of us really are just to stupid to realise this stuff:

    the 'simbos' as you like to call them have been awful for the last 7 years or so.

    earlier episodes = great
    later episodes = bull****

    They didn't have a choice in whether it was cancelled, they didn't want to stop making Futurama. Fox cancelled it, they didn't.

    So where is that credit coming from?

    well okay i didn't know fox cancelled it, i thought matt did.

    i just thought he wanted to dish out even more sub par simpsons episode instead on working on the cartoon that had more potential
