This is a hard time because I like all three shows a lot. I watched and loved The Simpsons ever since the clips on the Tracy Ullman show. Even though I don't watch South Park too much I do like it. I love Family Guy and I always laugh at most of the episodes. I ended up picking Family Guy.

In its prime I'd have always voted for the Simpsons, but now I'd be happy to see all three shows die. None of them are anything like they used ot be.
The Simpsons has become a poor imitation of Family Guy, Family Guy's become a poor imitation of itself and South Park just isn't funny anymore.

The Simpsons, however Family Guy can be mildly amusing (it would be better as a sketch show) and Sheila Broflovski from South Park is one of my favorite TV characters and the Christian rock episode was hilarious.

Futurama is my favorite, though.

family guy is really hit or miss and same with the simpsons but it's in entirely different stylistic ways.

south park also does the same, though they seem to go through longer periods of being "on".

I know South Park is meant to be a social commentary, regardless of how it's presented.

Family Guy is a lot more witty than South Park or Simpsons. I find that the Simpsons and South Park are childish most of the time. They seem like they were written for children. Maybe that's why they only appealed to me when I was a child....

I'd give each shows the following ratings out of 10:

Simpsons: 5 (I just don't find it funny anymore. You find the odd thing in it that's funny. I still like Homer though)
South Park: 6.5 (I haven't seen this for ages, but every once in a while there was stuff in it that was funny because it was so crazy and bizarre. Not nearly as brilliant as Family Guy though)
Family Guy: 9.5 (It's just so damn funny and offensive. I laugh 10x more when watching this than the above 2 shows combined)

Sorry if you people don't agree with me. These are only my opinions.

Did anyone see the South Park episode that made fun of Family Guy by 'revealing' that it was written by manatees?

South park went way down hill after the first few seasons, I never watched it again because they got way to political. I prefer the simpsons and fam guy.

I also like adult swim toons as well as king of the hill!

Well, you shouldn't talk about any of those shows at a Republican Party findraiser.

I voted Family Guys. Just The best IMO. Funny, just enough slap-stick, not to full of its self.

South Park seems to be too self important. They went with the commentary on current events, were good for a couple of season, then took it too far. Its nice to have an episode that makes sense with out having read The New York Times.

Simpsons, too old. It was good in its prime. It took the commentary angle but didn't abuse it.

I like the Simpsons and Family Guy pretty equally (I'm not allowed to watch South Park), but I voted for the Simpsons simply because I've watched it longer and I haven't seen almost every episode yet (I do get tired of rewatching the same episode so many times...which happens with Family Guy a lot)
I also love Futurama Very Happy (somebody mentioned it)
