I used to think that family guy was funnier but futurama was better
I now think that futurama is a fucking shit-ton better, mostly because I've grown to realize just how godly of a show futurama is. there are some "bender is a robot" jokes that arent really funny, but those aren't the pearls of the show. the character building and storyline and punny references and incredible voice acting makes it stand out. bender, fry, zoidberg and the professor all have voices that are so incredibly superior to every family guy voice, where honestly, most of them annoy you at some level. (stewie was funny at first but then he just turned so.. gay. )

i think anyone who actually watches every futurama episode and not just 3-4 will realize how much superior it is, because unlike family guy, the best jokes require you to really comprehend the characters and their thought lines, whereas the funniest family guy jokes could have been well, not part of family guy and still equally funny.

not to mention that the storytelling in certain futurama episodes is awesome (like say, "The Sting".)
I also genuinely believe that anyone who watches the final episode of futurama (the devil's hands are idle playthings) after having seen most others, and without being a total idiot, will realize that that episode is the single greatest 23 minute period on tv, ever.
and then you have episodes like jurassic bark, that actually make you cry.

Despite Thread starter's biased attempt to get more votes for Family guy by posting only what he thinks is to be funny epidsodes of family guy, with poor reasoning that he couldn't find any funny episodes of Futurama soley based on his opinion and quoting biased google fight result, he failed miserably.

The poll has spoken, close the thread. Let's stop arguing over such insignificant issues such as which animation series is better, when there are other real issues that require your attention. Time to grow up.

family guy makes me bust a gut laughing, i feel guilty watching it sometimes cuz its so morally base. its a string of funny jokes but i think they re imaginative how they do it, like the five minute peter v chicken fight. it's cool how its not predictable with its structure (though that has become its structure). sometimes i wont watch it though just cuz its so offensive and stupid.

futurama makes me chuckle. i can appreciate it for its sophistication and the jokes are very witty and character-based. its never too offensive, just irreverent like the simpsons in the good ol days. i feel good after watching it as opposed to guilty and inspires me to be a better human being.

so if i were in a bad mood where i wanted to piss on someone id prob watch family guy. if i were in a good mood - futurama.

CharlieMurphy, as it is obvious you have lost the poll despite making a blatantly one sided first post, without further delay, I re-post this.

Futurama easy. I have seen every each episode four times and I can still re watch them.
I don't find FG that funny and I can't relate to the topic as much (thats also why I think Futurama>Simpsons)

The Simpsons remains as the funniest cartoon for me.

Futurama and Simpsons just have a smarter sense of humor than Family Guy I find.
Both are hilarious, no question. I watch them everyday

Zap: "Where's the little umbrella Kif? That's what makes it a Scotch on the rocks!"
---

Zap: "I'll have two steaks, and the ladies will each have a very sensual salad with a very low-fat sensual dressing."

Kif: "...and I will ha* "

Zap: "Ah! Kif is not hungry!" whipsers "Kif, this place is expensive!"

That guy is the best :D

Zea!

Family Guy is definitley the funnier of the two. I think ratings alone, plus fan-base following woudl back it all up. Futurama isn't bad either, but it's kinda bland and more of a Simpsons based in the future.
Family Guy just has tons of quirky references to everyday media happenings, joking on 'em as well as that just plain funny side show comedy... The clips at the top of the page do a good job of showcasing what I mean. .
wacky waving inflateable arm-flailing tube-men... c'mon!!!
Stewie, Byran, Peter >>>>> Fry, Bender, Leela.. GG 2-0 ^^
