It's one thing that annoys me; people telling the OP that the thread is in the wrong place and then not bothering to do any more than that. It just seems a bit rude.

I apologise if I jumped the gun a bit there with my comment.

Yes, you made another irrelevant comment. At least say which you prefer. If you're feeling really creative, you could even give a reason!

The last two seasons of The Simpsons haven't been bad at all actually. Family Guy used to be decent and is mediocre at best now. If you ask me, the show's humor hinges on Herbert The Pervert and Quagmire.

Simpsons can wreck Family Guy. Not many people know this, but, the Simpsons actaully influenced Family Guy. There are many similarities. Peter and Homer are both alcoholics, Marge and Lois are both annoying and caretakers of the family, there are three kids, one of them being a baby, and usually there's a dog invovled. So, those are your similarities.

Small correction. Peter isn't an alcoholic. Just because somebody drinks a lot doesn't make them alcoholic. Homer drinks a lot more than Peter does.

Well, while Family Guy has me laughing more often, the few times Simpsons make me laugh are more entertaining, I just prefer Family Guy, it's good when you just want to kick back and watch something you don't have to think about.

That's a VERY generic theme that is older than the Simpsons.
It's like saying the Gauls were influenced by the Romans because they both killed people with swords.

I would say he probably wasn't specific enough with the comparisons, but the shows are similar enough that I feel safe in calling FG an unabashed ripoff of the Simpsons.

South Park rules all.

Other than that The Simpson.

I think Family Guy tries too hard to be funny, and it fails.
