Family Guy, South Park, Simpsons, Etc.

Well.. Simple question and discussion, eh?

Do you watch any of them?

I'm an avid watcher of SP and I sometimes watch FG. But The Simpsons has gotten boring in recent years quite frankly, ever since the movie (which I do like actually). I've tried American Dad, but it's bleh. I like Ugly Americans too.

[Guest Robin Winter]

I can't stand south park. At all.

I do like The Simpsons and Futurama. I usually enjoy American Dad somewhat. I enjoy Family Guy about half the time. Ummm...That's it I guess.

[Guest Jace Quent]

I used to like Family Guy a lot more but I still watch it every now and then. I also used to watch Drawn Together when it was on. I might be in a minority here, but King of the Hill used to be my favorite "adult" cartoon on television. Too bad Mike Judge decided to stop doing the show.

[Guest miss kindheart]

Can't say I care much for the others.

I agree that the simpsons has gotten boring. I agree with the notion that the writers of the simpsons have made fun of everything and are all out of ideas. There is nothing left to write about. They have been on for over twenty years for crying out loud. How could they continue without some kind of decline? Do they have a bottomless bucket of ideas or has the oil well been tapped out? I'm sure they'll think of something but I can not see what else they can do with that show. I watch the reruns quite often but I usually don't bother watching the new episodes every week.

The one thing I do not like about adult cartoons is the tendency of the shows to resort to nonsensical and crude humour. What I like about the simpsons is that while there is still some stupid humour there is a lot less vulgarity than in many other shows. The simspons is still a very silly show but there are some clever jokes as well. The simpsons makes fun of reality more than any other adult cartoon and I can not get enough of the parodies. The simpsons is true satire. South park also makes fun of real attitudes and includes parodies but it is too over the top for me. I do not mean to be a party pooper but I enjoy real jokes more than I enjoy nonsensical humour in the form of talking bears and aliens in the attic. It is just too silly for me. Sorry for spoiling the fun but I do not feel comfortable laughing at anything too ridiculous.

i like to watch south park sometimes when i see it on, family guy and others on adult swim take up most of my nights and as for the simpsons, well when i ever see it on i usually watch it, homer's just too funny

[Guest April63]

I don't watch any of them. I find them too foul. There's nothing "adult" about them. They're mostly rude, foul, and obscene. I don't want to waste my time with that.

[Guest Deandra]

I like Family Guy and The Simpsons, but south park is way too vulgar.

I grew up on cartoons, from the very first made for TV cartoon, Crusader Rabbit, through all the Hanna-Barbara junk, to the superimposed mouths in the mostly static Clutch Cargo cartoons, til finally the adult animated shows of today. I love the old Bug Bunny/Looney Tunes/Merry Melodies, and it killed me when they were replaced by mostly drivel on TV (Animaniacs or the Looney Toon kids). Thank goodness The Simpsons came along and rescued adult humor. I've watched South Park, but found it actually sort of boring. I enjoy Family Guy but it is a little raunchy. King of the Hill, while having some really good real life situations didn't interest me that much (the whole character of LuAnn really made me cringe, talking especially but everything else, too).

I do enjoy edgier stuff, like Trippin the Rift, Drawn Together, I like Futurama and actually have several DVDs. See, I liked the really early stuff like Out of the Inkwell, some of the early Tom and Jerry. But I also got a kick out of the junk that Crusader Rabbit spawned like Suzy Snowflake, Hardrock, Coco and Joe (get that tune out of your head if you can), Beany and Cecil.

What I really like is when the creators toss out references - and make fun of - cultural icons. When I'm out to dinner with friends, we sometimes talk about the doofus's on Dancing with the Stars, or American Idol, you know, current TV stuff. Now watch a supposed reality show or dramedy (30 Rock, or New Adventures of the Old Christine). Do they ever talk about things people actually talk about? Hah! Not on your life. They don't acknowledge anything about current cultural mores. They all disappoint me because of that. Give the animated writers credit, they know what we're watching and what we think about and talk about, and it isn't all bathroom humor.

added - see, forgot a whole bunch. I liked Daria, that was clean and edgy. American Dad is a little boring. Ugly Americans is a hoot. Are any of the characters still alive, or are they reanimated after being horribly destroyed (like Kenny).

South park, family guy, thngs like that...I'm with shilo there. Blech all around. To much smut and swearing...the jokes are...funny, i'll admit. But i don't like them because the're usually sexual in nature, and i try to stay away from things like that unless they're in good taste. You don't really find much in good taste nowadays... The simpsons is decent but i don't really watch it much either.

[Guest BlakeFTM19]

Beside south park and family guy, degrassi has a main ftm character (gracie/adam torres). I love family guy south park and degrassi a lot

I enjoy them, but they don't seem to be as funny as they used to be. Not sure if they got old, or if I got old.
