^ Allow me to correct you again.

Regular South Park episodes > Futurama > Family Guy > Simpsons > South Park episodes parodying movies

It's to the point now where the Simpsons would be more at home on Nickelodeon than prime-time, because the cynical tone that used to make the show funny is all but gone now.

^^^No, the parodies are good.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

^I don't remember a single movie parody on South Park that was good. The Passion of the Jew would've been funnier if Cartman didn't use the joke the whole damn season. -CSM

The first couple seasons of 'The Simpsons' weren't funny either.

^^Cartman's used that joke his whole life. "Passion of the Jew" was a climax.
...It also wasn't one of the movie parodies; it was just talking about a movie.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

I hate Family Guy, and South Park.

Older South Park/Family Guy was alright, I guess.

Simpsons never really captured me, but I don't hate it.

Futurama is my hero 'though.

I don't remember the Simpson's Movie at all. I remember seeing it, but my memory of what actually happened in the movie is fuzzy. It didn't leave any impact on me, aside from, "yeah, that was pretty funny."

The old Simpsons episodes are different. I can remember many of the stories, because they left an impact on me, humor-wise.

*Too "what are you talking about"; didn't read: Old Simpsons are good, newer Simpsons don't affect me other then a quick laugh.*

also, I love Futurama. Mostly because it's characters grow and develop more then in other shows. Though, it has that advantage of being all the way in the future. Still, though.

It doesn't resort to potty humor and crude sexual innuendos in every single episode.

^Unlike Family Guy (especially present-day Family Guy), Futurama actually, ya know, TELLS STORIES.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"
