I'm going for a guess here, but I'm assuming neither one of you are over fifteen. I've noticed that most people under fifteen don't appreciate the Simpsons. It's not an immature show like Family Guy. Family Guy is the stupid man's version of the Simpsons. Don't get me wrong, Family Guy is hilarious, but the Simpsons have a higher sense of intelligence.
It's like comparing Clerks to American Pie. Most kids find American Pie to be funnier, because kids are stupid, and some shows/movies are not for the stupid.
Exe:
Clerks-Funny. But adult funny.
American Pie: Not funny, but childish. Which can be funny.
Certain shows and movies are targeted towards certain age groups. Family Guy is for people who don't do much thinking, and the obvious is always stated.
The Simpsons has more of a 'read between the lines' understand the situation joke thing going on.
Understand what I'm saying, here?
I hardly call myself stupid. In fact I score high in my tests I'll have you know. My parents always say that everyone says that the simpsons is for the smart and dumb@sses wouldn't get it. No, that show is dumb and I don't watch Family Guy either. And JubJub, It is not funny to make fun of religon, If you were a beliver in some religon I'm sure you wouldn't like me making fun of it alright!?!
