Family Guy or the Simpsons?

Postby keydence on Sat Jun 06, 2009 9:20 am

There are two animated series with a long-run background—Family Guy and the Simpsons. And they were often compared due to their similar satiric format based on a dysfunctional family, although none of the —Family Guy's member have yellow skin, except for that issue of Mad Magazine where they were portrayed as yellowish as the popular Springfield family.

However I'm wondering why — Family Guy has been cancelled and resurrected twice, and don't say it's due to its social criticism because I believe both TV series have a similar story format.

If you have to choose one, what you would prefer to watch and why?

I might have to say the simpsons, because it is original compared to family guy, considering they seem to have taken quite a few of their ideas, but it's still a good show.
I also wasn't aware that family guy was cancelled and then restarted twice. When did that happen?

family guy. the comedy is way more developed than the simpsons. they do the same thing over and over on the simpsons. family guy is new and is a much more modern form of comedy of today. anyways, who doesnt love a talking dog and a toddler with a british accent?!

Family Guy! It's so random all the time. Most of the time what happens has nothing to do with anything, and that really cracks me up XD

Simpsons is definitely better. It's an oldie but a goodie.

I think in terms of content the simpsons wins, but family guy really pushes the limits and comes up with the most ridiculous scenarios
