after thinking about it for quite a while, i have decided that the simpsons was a funnier show than family guy.
obviously i use the word "was" because the simpsons eat dog shit now. BUT for a good 5 seasons in the early to mid 90s, the simpsons ruled. much smarter comedy. anyone can look up a bunch of pop culture references and make jokes about them, but the simpsons just had hilarious conversational humor. the characters are sooooooo much more well developed. the family guy characters really arent that developed at all. and the simpsons has smart humor, the writers know their history.
Kent Brockman: "In light of the lottery being the highest its been in years, all copies of the novel "the lottery" have been checked out of local libraries. No tips to winning the jackpot will be found in the novel, for it is a chilling tale of a cruel new england town gone mad" HAHAHAHAHAHAA
Krusty the Klown: "Lets just say Burns' film moved me.....TO A BIGGER HOUSE!!! oh no, i said the loud part soft and the soft part loud"
