Choose your favorite show?

Mine is the Simpsons just because I have been watching it forever and King of the Hill was very underrated....

I regularly watch all of those shows aside from Simpsons, but South Park is my favorite of the bunch.

i voted futurama, i find its reruns to be more entertaining than most of those. SP and FG come in a close second. imo the simpsons just went downhill and i haven't found king of the hill funny in years (maybe because i live in texas and see actual people that behave like the characters in that show.... morons)

The Simpsons is excellent at its best, but I prefer Futurama due to its consistency and subtlety.

South Park cause it has the most Adult content. Plus it is my favorite. I like all of these shows but South park tops them with Futurama behind it.

I've gone in and out of phases of these shows except King of the Hill. At the moment, it's South Park. I'm enjoying the new episodes.

Simpsons= time to hang it up. The show is no longer funny.

King of the Hill= Very under-rated. And it got cancelled for the freaking Cleveland Show. It did not deserve such a fate

Futurama= was, and always will be, Matt Groening masterpiece. Better than the Simpsons in every way.

Family Guy= yes, it has spawned a terrible spin-off(The Cleveland Show), a fairly bland sister show(American Dad) and is over-rated a bit. But it is also funny as hell.

South Park= Other than King of the Hill, its the most mature show on here. Very smart, and very funny.

I had to go with Futurama.

All are good shows, recent family guy and simpsons episodes suck. Best of the simpsons is the best overral imo, south park is probably the most consistent.

Dude, do you have to make me choose.:P

I chose Futurama since it had the least amount of bad episodes, and yes, all those shows had bad episodes, including South Park.

I know what you mean, though the only problem I have with that argument is that Futurama had four great seasons and no bad ones (since it only ran for four seasons, though it's coming back :D), whereas The Simpsons had 11 or 12 consecutive great seasons and several consecutive bad ones (and is still on the air >_>).

In the past I've enjoyed The Simpsons, Futurama and Family Guy. Not so much the other 2. I think in terms of watching old episodes, Futurama wins. For some reason, you can enjoy the episodes again and again, and it's probably because the humour is less memorable and more subtle.. whereas say with Family Guy you remember the exact words and actions of characters at funny points, and it isn't so great 3rd or 4th time round. So sometimes being too funny can harm the long term appeal I think. Futurama has it just right.

maybe I'm the only one here, but I think Season 20 and Season 21 (so far) are really good. I don't know, once The Simpsons hit HD, they've been funnier, and better.

Well, I haven't really watched the latest season or two of The Simpsons, since I more or less gave up on it. :P

Nothing can beat The Simpsons at it's best, so it's been pretty mediocre for the past 10 seasons or so >_>. Futurama is also great, though I've never been all that into South Park or King of the Hill. Family Guy is pretty crap now, though still not as bad as American Dad or (*shudders*) The Cleveland Show.

Yeh, that viewpoint is fair enough. The Simpsons needs to call it a day before it is remembered as the show that didn't know how to wrap things up, rather than a work of genius; really, it's become a cliche-ridden piece of trash recently. And honestly I don't have great expectations for the new Futurama series; the movies were awful in comparison to the show. Here's hoping that's just because Groening can't deal with movie-making, though...

Family Guy is the best in all aspects. Second goes to South Park, third to The Simpsons, fourth to Fururama and fifth to King of the Hill.

Well, I personally liked the Futurama movies, but that's just me. I thought The Simpsons movie was really good (especially considering the state of the show), but in a lot of ways it wasn't really a movie so much as a long episode (especially given the first 30-ish minutes didn't have much to do with the plot :P).

well you should check out the episodes "Gone Maggie Gone", "Waverly Hills 9-0-2-1-D'oh" and "Homer the Whopper" all three of those episodes are great. But then again you don't have to check them out :P Up to you.

Didn't The Simpsons Movie writing team include a number of writers from the series' heyday, though? Because if so, that certainly explains a lot. I liked the Futurama movies too, though they were a bit of a step down in quality (especially Bender's Game, which was a bit late of the gate with it's attempts at spoofing TLOTR) and weren't really anywhere near as funny.

Simpsons had about 9 brilliant years and an additional 3 good ones (IMO) so Im going with them as my number one.

South park would come in second as they too have had 9 brilliant years (near simpson levels) but only season 11 and episodes here and there are working now.

Futurama has some of the best episodes of television I've ever seen but 3 of the movies didnt do it for me.

King of the hilll also had a great run and is the most consistant of these choices, but also doesnt quite reach the heights the others do.

edit: forgot about family guy. 3 masterful seasons, one decent after and everything else I believe to be unwatchable.

A difficult choice between Futurama and the Simpsons, but I'm gonna go with the Simpsons simply because the show can still be brilliant (sometimes) after 20 years.

All those shows are great (or at least were at some point), but Futurama is the greatest animated show of all time.

The aim was not to be smart. And it has a terrible Republican bias.

But I still like it more than Family guy (I find it annoying).

Simpsons ad KOTH: meh.

I used to think Futurama was best; but now its South Park.

Futurama, I would have said Family Guy but with how the past two seasons have gone, I've really lost my intrest in the show. It needs to stop being Seth's political opinion show and reusing old jokes every episode (chool whip was fun the first time, not the fifth.) and just go back to being random and insulting everything and one in the most blunt, politically incorrect way possible, that is when the show is actually funny.

I never understand how people could consider South Park a "smart show", let alone the smartest show from the options listed.
