GivenToFly Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 (edited) Ok, so Sopranos vs The Wire was not a very successful thread. This one features more popular shows and might get more interest.Between Simpsons and South Park, which one do you prefer? That is, by whatever standards you judge a tv show, be it personal preference or an attempt at objectivity.We've had South Park and Simpsons threads before but to my recollection none where compare them directly.Also, if you intend to reply with Family Guy, kill yourself.

arnold layne Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 The Simpsons when they were good, now it's probably South Park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GivenToFly Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 Nobody can seriously question which one is better now. I was thinking on a comparison with their entire respective runs in mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arnold layne Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Some of the things South Park has done were awful. I mean The Simpsons has been bad, but some South Park is just unwatchable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GivenToFly Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 God, everything involving Terence&Philippe (except the movie) is SO BAD It's not even so bad it's good, it goes beyond that, it's so bad it's atrocious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Drama Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Human centipede man. Terrible.Lol thats really got you worked up hasn't it? Big fan of both, but Simpsons up until about 2001/2 was amazing, even if the last few of those years also weren't as good as some earlier ones.Bacardimayne's little order of greatness was pretty spot on.

GivenToFly Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 I'm generally a late-Simpsons apologist, in that I don't think their later period has been THAT bad. There was actually one season (20 I think it was, I'm not sure) that was actually pretty good. But the last season has been terrible. There were like 2 decent episodes in the whole thing.By contrast the last season of South Park in my opinion has been amazing (granted, only half of it has aired). The one before was pretty good too, particularly the second half. You're pretty much guaranteed at least 3 excellent episodes per season, everything else is a coin toss really.

Gordon Comstock Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Early Simpsons (90's Simpsons) > "Declining" Simpsons (2000-2003ish) > Early South Park > least season of Family Guy > Newer South Park >>>>>>>>>>>> New Simpsons.I actually hated Family Guy but I watched the current season online and the majority of it has been pretty good, especially the first half. It's way better than I remember it being.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
