Which show is better?
People seem to
have misconceptions about which show is better: South Park or Family Guy.
It’s clear who’s the winner, but I’m going to list what each one has to their
names.
Family Guy has
bullshit random humor which will make only those with an IQ lower than 80 laugh.
Sometimes though there is very subtle humour (yeah right) and it can be funny.
At times. Never.
South park is godlike. It has everything, violence, subtle humor, crude humor
and jokes that aren’t completely random and out of place.
IE Family Guy once had a scene where Brian tried to cheer up Peter by dancing as
the PB&J douche banana. What was the point in that? How was that funny?
South park on the other hand are masters at humor. A lot of their jokes are
successful because they will lead you in one direction, then take the unexpected
turn whilst still staying non random.
IE Cartman was attempting to get past adults so as to get to Butters because he
had a ninja shuriken in his eye. The boys had weapons from the easy they weren’t
supposed to and had tried to take Butters to some form of medical treatment.
Cartman said he had a power to walk past the adults invisible, and stripped.
End result, the boys were busted.
Cut scene and you’re watching the adults speak about how angry they are. Close
up of the boys cringing for the punishment they are about to receive for the
possession of weapons and injuring of Butters… And then BAM! The town turns out
to be mad about the nudity of Cartman.
Now that’s surprise humor that doesn’t reek of Family Guy’s attempt at being
random.
That being said, The Simpsons are still the gods of TV. Followed by South Park
then Family Guy, tied with American Dad.
But to answer the
questions of all those mouth breathers out there, South Park is superior over
Family Guy. I personally never understood why Family Guy took off like it did.
Hell, maybe it didn’t. I don’t know. All I know is I’m from Australia and out
humor completely destroys American humor mostly. Sometimes. They’re half half.
Fuck it.
South
Park wins because it wins, ok you fuckers? Ok. Family Guy isn’t as funny as
people say it is. For Christ’s sake, I see people shitting themselves with
laughter over the scene of Stewie talking about Brian’s book writing career in
an increasingly high pitched tone, and I observe this and say “I got it, but
where’s the substance?”
And Adam West as the mayor? How the hell does that strike anyone as funny?
Jesus Christ, watching Family Guy is almost as funny as
pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanokoniosis. For the slow witted, I normally
say “X is as funny as lung cancer”.
Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanokoniosis is lung cancer. Shut up.
