the first ~10 seasons of the simpsons are some of the smartest and funniest shows that have ever aired.
simpsons as a whole is diminished because of how shitty everything was after that. but classic simpsons is superior to anything southpark and family guy has ever done. |

Date: March 13th, 2025 10:23 AM Author: A Prince of Spice (gunneratttt) nothing in either of those shows has peak simpsons subtle humor that also manages to appeal to a broad audience.
closeted gay smithers: "I Think Women and Seamen Don’t Mix."
"To Alcohol! The Cause of... and Solution to... All of Life's Problems."
my favorite deep cut is when mr. burns calls a columbian hitman.
Burns: "Fernando, it's M. B."
Fernando: "Ah, Marion Barry. Is it time for another shipment already?"
this type of smart and subtle wordplay that most of the audience will not understand but is not distracted by is what makes classic simpsons great and is completely absent south park and (ugh) family guy, which has never been smart but just edgy and absurdist. |

Date: March 13th, 2025 10:26 AM Author: lex family guy was never that good and aged like milk. the simpsons had a couple dozen inspired plots, which is an insane amount for a weekly sitcom, so people think back fondly on the show when they remember those. you're right that any given episode might not be too clever, but marge v. the monorail stands out as a comedy gem to many, many millennials/young gen x'ers in a way that not a single episode of family guy does for anyone. more abstractly, the simpsons reflect an american culture that many look back fondly on. it 'pushed boundaries' ever so slightly wrt mainstream christian values, but every episode ultimately ended up celebrating those values with some kind of wholesome message. king of the hill is similar. we're nostalgic for that america. everyone downplaying south park ITT is dead wrong, though. that show had similarly inspired, very memorable high-points in the 90's/2000's. |

Date: March 13th, 2025 10:29 AM Author: A Prince of Spice (gunneratttt) i love south park. but it's never been as subtlety clever as simpsons. they clearly signal their cleverest bits. that's part of the charm.
early simpsons is basically america monty python, which makes sense because the writers room was filled with harvard lampoon dorks. |

Date: March 13th, 2025 10:29 AM Author: Prolemobiler family guy went viciously against both shitlib and conservative nonsense for like two decades. you probably wont like 50% of it but its not like they limited it to making fun of george bush or whatever. they went against everyone. im surprised they even got away with it.

Date: March 13th, 2025 10:34 AM Author: metaphysical certitude South Park has retarded moralisms throughout. It's supposed to be ironic that writers of a crude cartoon are right about a controversial topics. They're not and are retards.
The Simpsons had genuine American values in its plots. There's no grand moralism at the end of the show. The show uses conflict to show the values and is lighthearted about any grand morals at the end.
Family guy is for dipshits.
The Simpsons is clearly the superior show |

Date: March 13th, 2025 10:34 AM Author: peeface they all had great periods, and none have been worth watching in at least a decade.
but simpsons peak was the highest - there are no memorable family guy episodes, and very few south park.. just some good gags.

2. South Park - very funny with overtly political themes but usually in an interesting manner
HUUGE GAPP
3. Family Guy - easy random jokes with nothing interesting to say |

Date: March 13th, 2025 9:56 PM Author: irl chink family guy was by far the funniest one but it also tried the hardest to be funny and not all of its jokes hit. but the ones that were funny were really, really funny
early simpsons was actually relatively high brow compared to anything made today, like gunnerattt is pointing out in this thread
south park was never good. ever, at any point. that show was just objectively bad and if you thought it was funny or clever you are just...not a very sophisticated person |
