    Eh....I don't know. They're both real funny. I think Family Guy's more special cos they don't show it as much and the humour's a bit more grown up.

    Plus, Stewey is the funniest cartoon character ever!

    and add Futurama to the poll as well, the best of the three by a light year
    Whatever it was I am sure it was better than my plan to get out of this by pretending to be mad. I mean, who would have noticed another madman around here?

    Has to be the Simpsons, they can still knock out the laughs after all these years. Family Guy runs them very close though!

    Nowadays id say family guy without a doubt.The simpsons was excellent (homer is a legend!) but I think The simpsons has burned out long ago, (all the stupid comparison jokes) i think it started really running out of ideas when the episode with principal skinner/arman Tanzarian was shown. But Family guy is one hell of a show!

    It's gotta be Family Guy. The Random Humour element is much better than what you get from the Simpsons.

    Simpsons nowhere near as good as it was 6-10 years ago,all the best episodes are from that period (Hank Scorpio etc.).Family Guy pushing it VERY close at this stage,might just go for The Simpsons over it though!

    From that list it goes

    Simpsons back in the day when it was good -> modern South Park episodes -> Family Guy -> Futurama -> Older South Park episodes -> Being punched in the face -> new Simpsons episodes.

    So Thye Simpsons, I suppose.

    Nothing can touch the Simpsons that were being made up until about 1996. In my opinion the standard started to decline after that and at this stage I think that it is very poor, and bares little resemblence to the original 6/7 series of the Simpsons.

    I think that Futurama is superb, very close to the standard of the best Simpsons and I hope it comes back one day.

    I like Family Guy, crap animation etc, and is very inconsistent, but it is a good comedy.

    So, IMHO, best animated comedy ever is the Simpsons, the best animated comedy currently being made (and judging by the latest episodes) is Family Guy, and the best animated comedy of the last decade is Futurama!

    One thing that Futurama has over Family Guy is that there are proper stories in each episode and not just thread-bare excuses to go from one joke to the next.

    South Park is very good too, but is behind the other 3.

    In saying all that, I have all the Futuama and Family Guy DVD box-sets, and not the Simpsons. I'll defo get the first few series when they are going cheap in the sales again though.


    EDIT: One criticism of the Simpsons I have now is that it is nearly getting to the stage where it has been poor longer than it has been great.

    It's like asking who do you hate more Bush Jnr or Bush Smr, Jnrr is certainly more evil than his father but if it was not for his father he wouldn't be here.... ah Bill hicks, what fun he would be having.

    Family Guy but lifetime achievement award to the Simpson’s.
    It's only just begun...............
    If the last 21 years were class, here's looking forward to the next 21 years. It is our time
