(+) Yeah! (+)

Yeah I couldn't vote for Family Guy since peak Adult Swim was Family Guy and Futurama.

South Park if it can take a chunk of the libertarian both sides bad shipdittery with it.

Otherwise Family Guy.

Family Guy and it isn't close. It was fine for a few seasons, but was completely eclipsed by American Dad, which has since rendered it obsolete.

I don't have anything against Family Guy, but its not on the same tier as the other three imo.

'South Park'

I can't dislike Family guy, and the Simpsons had great video games. Ironically, the most enjoyable South Park game I ever played was South Park rally.

Futurama was so good, whenever I hear Katey Seagal's voice I immediately think 'Leela' when I used to attribute it to Married with children.

Family Guy is funnier than people give it credit for, but it's completely expendable among these four.

I used to really like Family Guy alot more than I ever liked The Simpsons but its the one thats got to go. Without Simpsons I doubt Futurama would have been made. Hell a bunch of animation probably wouldnt exist without the early popularity of The Simpsons.

south park fans are pretty annoying

If we're going by the shows prime eras (and even if we're not) South Park and it's not even close.

shit is brain dead.

Tough choice because they are all important and have funny seasons, but I'll go with Family Guy since it goes down hill very fast after the original run.

Much as I dislike modern Family Guy, I don't think it's had anywhere near the impact that South Park had on politics (and unfortunately, that impact overall wasn't really for the better). I question whether the bothsiderism and apathy problems would have gotten as bad as they have without South Park putting out episodes like "Douche vs. Turd" or "ManBearPig", so I think I'm going to have to go with that.

Honestly the Simpsons.

I only ever dabbled in watching episodes here and there when it first started and in the early stages of the early 90's. I was never a regular watcher.

Meanwhile I watched multiple seasons of South Park and will still occasionally watch an episode, watched all of Futurama, and have watched pretty much all of Family Guy and despite people saying it fell off after the first 3 seasons I have always enjoyed all of Family Guy and still enjoy it. It is my favorite one of the bunch.

So even though The Simpsons is iconic and undoubtedly inspired the others that is my choice.

Same, but I still couldn't choose it because of the early seasons. The Simpsons as a show is like Roman Reigns' championship reign in WwE. The guy is great, but as a whole it has gone on too long.

I have always enjoyed all of Family Guy and still enjoy it. It is my favorite one of the bunch.

All this, plus Family Guy does a better job with balancing their Meg episodes between funny and cringey as opposed to how 'American Dad' treats Steve. I swear most of the time American Dad wants Steve to be in his drawers running around (and that's my change the channel moment).

South Park

Nothing against it, just like it the least

Lol.

South Park.

Without Family Guy, which started off strong, we likely wouldn't have gotten American Dad, The Cleveland Show, Ted, or The Orville. All of which I enjoy.

South Park has given nothing of long term value, really.

Family guy. Was a bit close with Southpark cuz it hasn't been as funny as it used to be lately but family guy hasn't been funny to me in a long ass time.

Family Guy, easily. American Dad is better in every way.

Lmfao

Simpsons. Never cared for it. Never found it funny.

south park hasnt been funny since like 2008, i dont understand how it has modern fans unless theyre all teenagers

Family Guy has the worst art and stories.

I just watched last weeks episode of The Simpsons, Clan Of The Cave Mom and it was so boring. There were no jokes, and no wacky scenes. They didnt even tell any bad jokes, it was completely devoid of humour. I found it slow paced with even the action scenes being tame, albeit unnecessarily violent for an episode of The Simpsons (Ice Age Homer gets impaled on a pointy rock). The whole episode seemed mean-spirited filled with conflict and hate. It also seemed to be lacking in music as well.

Ive not seen a new episode of The Simpsons for a while, but Im just not enjoying them. I only watch them now every few months just to confirm to myself that its still poor quality.

I know the Simpsons is historic, but honestly I don't never liked it as much as the others. And I don't like South part that much. But just how horrible cartman is have made me laugh sometimes. Like the time he made that kid eat his parents .

Seems like the vast majority is directed at its shitty fans instead of the show itself.

Scott Tenermans dad was also Cartmans biological father.

One of the kid's parents was actually Cartman's biological father. Cartman isn't sad about that mind you. He is sad that it makes him half-ginger...

Beat me to it by less than 30 seconds. Dang

Personally, Futurama. I really liked the show back in its first few seasons and they were some of the best episodes I've ever seen throughout adult animated media.

After those few seasons, the show just didn't leave me as impressed on many angles and a lot of its humor were just getting "weirder" than funnier without any noticeable context to them, in my opinion.

Anyway, in order of "importance"...

Simpsons > Futurama > South Park > Family Guy

So Family Guy gets the axe sadly.

South Park has done actual, tangible damage to political discourse during its tenure, while also empowering things like climate change denial, class warfare, antisemitism and other religion-based bigotry, and transphobic hate.

Family Guy's worst sin is not being funny.

Thanks guys . I was behind in the South Park Lore . I thought his mom was his dad.

Never liked Family Guy at all tbh. Easy choice.

I can't stand South Park

Can't believe people would pick family guy over it

Family Guy. Easily.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

its not a recent thing

Family Guy I guess. I don't really like Futurama that much honestly. I thought the first season obviously was amazing but other episodes none were usually bad but it could never top a lot of those early Bender moments. Simpsons is a shell of itself now but it still is integral to so much pop culture. I haven't watched South Park in awhile but there were times where I thought that show actually got better over time. I also like how Cartman would dress up in so many different outfits. I actually bought a ton of those kidrobot figures because they made me laugh and it was fun to gamble my money on those surprise boxes too.

Family Guy was a riot in the original run. The first season of the revival from what I saw was good but then it quickly plummeted down hill into just garbage. So I guess that.

I had more to say about this, kinda a what. I killed a topic again?

I stopped finding South Park funny in my late 20s, not because of the raunchy humor, but because each episode is just telling the same joke like 4 or 5 times

at least seasons 1-3 family guy gets a few good chuckles out of me, havent watched the new stuff aside from an episode here and there on late night tv when my melatonin wont kick in

Completely agree.

Glad to see Futurama looking good in the poll

I'm surprised so many people voted for Futurama.

I find it funny so many people actually believe this.

it doesnt seem very difficult to believe

ive seen douche v turd rhetoric online and irl pretty much every election ive been aware pf since 2004

Futurama. Good show but nowhere near those other ones, to me.

Even though Futurama is a really good show, I had to pick it since I think it's the least culturally significant

Violent video games don't perpetuate violence, rampant sexuality on TV doesn't corrupt the kids but that damned blasted South Park and it's swaying of the masses!!
