Oh yeah, I like King of the Hill too, though sometimes I get annoyed how much they put down Bobby. He's actually really smart, if he got some support!

| Simsons, it does not have the adult humor the other two have. South Park needs to be banned. |

Is Futurama on here. Personally i like anything with Matt Groening as creator so i would vote for "The Simpsons". Also "The Simpsons" didn`t jump the shark as badly as "South Park and "Family Guy" did. In fact i believe "Family Guy" is a Plagiarized verson of "The Simpsons". Also even the creator of "Ren and Stempy" commented that "Family Guy" episodes could be animated by a 10-Year Old. In all honesty Seth McFarlene is a liar and should have been sued a long time ago.
"South Park" is also awesome. I'm just a big fan of satirical humor. Both "South Park" and "The Simpsons" are also educational because they touch on a lot of issues and politics. "Family Guy" has no serious plotlines and is in-fact a buch of random fart jokes. Shame On Seth McFarlene.
Note- "Family Guy' was good in its 1st 3 seasons. |

For me, it's a tossup between the Simpsons and South Park- they're like apples and oranges, good in entirely different ways. I like the Simpsons for its varied humor (from subtle to slapstick) and versatile/unique plotlines. South Park's outrageousness and underlying political/societal messages are endearing to me, as well.
Family Guy, however, is in my opinion a knock off of sorts of the Simpsons (it's apparent enough in the art style) and I personally find many of the jokes to be unnecessarily vulgar and not at all amusing. The show itself seems to be too rapidly paced and without any defined sense of direction plotwise. |

In order of preference-
South Park- I love the social commentary and I tend to agree with much of what's expressed.
Simpson's - Would have been on top until a while ago but South Park has me consistently in hysterics.
Family Guy- Although I will watch it on occasion I detest Family Guy. I think it's crappy plots, unconnected jokes and irrelevant references to celebrities that I dislike most. I also hate the fact that they just don't seem to have any concept of when a joke is just tasteless or when something stopped being funny 30 seconds before...
Obviously I like King of the Hill very much too. |

The Simpsons - Brilliant for it's first nine seasons, but has since slid into a game of "look who we can get to voice character XYZ" and "what minor recurring character can we base this week's show on?"
Family Guy - as a Rhode Islander, I get alot of the little jokes that are aimed at us and us alone and go over the heads of everyone else (ie: the cityscape behind the Griffin house is the skyline of Providence, our love of personalized licensed plates, the fact that Buddy Cianci - the former mayor of Providence and convicted felon - is beloved by everyone in the state unconditionally), but I feel the show's wit hasn't been the same since it was revived
South Park - Has slowly grown into the sharpest satire on television and make good use of their guest stars (Radiohead and George Clooney had tiny but unforgettable parts in two different episodes)
I'll chose South Park because the writing has only gotten better in recent seasons instead of the opposite for "Family Guy" (there are some good episodes) and "The Simpsons" (I haven't watched it for two years).

Why do i always hear people say "The Simpsons" was only good in its 1st 9 Seasons. Honestly not a lot of people has seen the movie or any of the newer episodes. Well than again you have to have a good love for "Futurama" and political satire to sit through a newer episode. Along with the fact that newer episodes also touch on things like Childhood Obesity, Drugs, and Splitting Up Towns. Which makes it very funny. Been watching the show since "Simpsons Roasting On A Open Fire" on December 17, 1989 and haven't stopped watching since.[That was the Pilot Episode.] |

I didn't count the movie. It was fantastic, but I don't count the movie. I like "Futurama", but I don't like the new episodes of "The Simpsons". The writing has deteriorated.

I have to admit that Seasons 11- 15 were not at best interest but that was because Mike Scully doesn't have a good sense of humor. However i believe "The Simpsons" made a comback in the past 3 Seasons. Have you seen the "That 90's Show" episode. Now that is some good, old-fashioned Matt Groening work. |

| I voted for The Simpsons but looking back maybe I should have voted for South Park, they're both great shows. Family Guy isn't bad either but not one of my favorites. |
