The simpsons used to be good but after the ninth season things really went down. Its why on reruns in the afternoon and at night they play older episodes most of the time. Because those episodes were funny and still make people laugh unlike the more recent. American dad I never watched again after watching one episode. Its a horrible show really. FG and SP are pretty funny and i watch as often as possible. Futurama is pretty good as well.

The Simpsons was one of the best shows ever to grace TV in its prime, but has sucked for at least 5 years now. Thank god The Simpsons Movie was pretty good!

Family Guy is a great show, but some of the jokes fall flat on their face while it hasn't been even half as good since it was brought back from cancellation.

South Park at its best is the funniest and most clever show on TV but some episodes are just unbearably stupid. It also has the same problem as Family Guy in that some jokes just fall flat.

American Dad has its moments but for the most part is very mediocre.

South Park gets my vote, but I feel the same way about Family Guy that the cartman character does on SP. Those darn manatee writers with their idea balls dont know a thing.

King of the Hill is kind of underrated, the characters are funny. I like the older episodes too, the one about the tainted alamo beer is hilarious. When they get home and rush to their perspective bathrooms and dale has a security panel on his bathroom door and enters his code in agony.......then the voice from the panel.......STAGE ONE COMPLETE.....lol.

The John Redcorn bit is funny too. I dont care too much for the episodes that involve his boss, Mr. Strictland. I Get alot of laughs out the Bill character too. And like Hank, I'm also kind of fussy about my yard, lawn pirates are everywhere.

Family Guy hands down. Never have I watched that show and not laughed. There's always something.

Dale speaking to John Redcorn "Poor Bill, his woman is making a fool of him"......John Redcorn responds......"It Happens"

Classic episode, a touching tale of a poor man's toe fungus and the lost love of LeuAnn's dear sainted mother.........

The episode when Peggy opens up the bookstore/gunshop with Dale.....Great Stuff

Hey manatee writers, please dont cancel King of the Hill.

Family Guy and South Park just go overboard trying to be crude.....they cater to the lowest common denominator. Give me the Simpsons anyday...at least you can tell it took some thinking to make the Simpsons. I like the Simpsons, but I would take King of the Hill over any of them.
