I like the Simpsons more. While I am a kind of person who likes gruesome things, Family Guy goes overboard

Simpsons! Haha but I don't know if I'm even qualified for this discussion because I've never seen Family Guy. But for some reason I have no interest in watching it...

I agree with you.. the new simpsons are just not funny, compared to the new episodes I think family guy is better
Although.. I would prefer the older simpsons to family guy

I feel that the simpsons are the best although famly guy is very funny it goes way too far over the line with its racial sterotypes.

Now, I'd say it's Family Guy, though Simpsons is indeed the father of 'em all. But yeah, some new episodes are quite disappointing, maybe because it's been on air for so long it got a little monotonous.
I saw an episode of The Simpsons where they listed Peter of Family Guy and Stan of American Dad in America's Most Wanted as "plagiarismo". I think it's fine to get a sort of inspiration from something/someone (as long as it's not an EXACT imitation)if you can give justice to it and make it better.

Neither are really great in my opinion. I use to love the Simpsons which was hilarious and I loved it. Now it's just more of a I watched the episode and wasted 30 mins of my life. Family Guy I'll give is funny, but only for more teenish to adults. A lot of jokes and inappropriate stuff. Still they're both something to pass the time.

The simpons is a better show imo. Family guy just tries to hard a lot of the time with and overdoes a lot of stuff which is annoying. But some episodes are classics like the starwar ones and is better then any simpsons episode out there But there others that just suck and I dont care to watch again. But overall the simpsons is a better show.

Errrrm....I have to lean towards Family Guy, but they are both great shows. Family guy tends to push the envelope, or more often take the envelope, smashes it, rips it, crumples it, sets it on fire and then releases a load on it. Also, the jokes tend to be funny in an awkward sort of way, but have alot of depth and genius to them despite significance.
The Simpsons is a hit or miss kinda thing that starts out the same way every episode (blank blank blank leads to something insanely different than what the episode started with like homer wrecks his car so bart and homer become con artists with barts magic kit) and it can get kind of boring and lose its funny. Sometimes I catch myself thinking "why am I watching this again?"

my choice is the simpsons. family guy is good but it pales in comaprison to the simpsons. i don't think any other show can come close to the simpsons. it was such a groundbreaking program that people immediately fell in love with it.

i like family guy, but with so many reruns going on with both of them watching it is beginning to be a bit drag to me now.
But all in all, family guy is a better show. I like the spoofing. and stewie.

I personally like the Simpsons better. But, I like Family Guy, too. Family Guy likes to step over the line a lot more than the Simpsons in which the humor is sometimes more subtle and sarcastic. It seems like Family Guy almost wants to push every button out there, which I know a lot of people like.

I prefer the Simpsons but I like both. The thing with Family Guy is that the jokes are pretty much interchangeable, they don't really have much relevance to the plot. And while Peter is funny, he can never measure up to Homer Jay Simpson.
