Personally I've never been a huge South Park fan and while I love some of the episodes the majority of them don't interest me. The Simpsons is great, it can be enjoyed by almost any age group and it will be recognized as one of the greatest television shows of all time animated or not.
Family Guy's audience is stoner college students, they're who brought the show back from cancellation (and why I'm a fan). South Park is for people who keep up with the news cuz its a very "topical" show. Simpsons, yes, is for anyone and everyone... that's kind of the point of the show. It satirizes society in every sense, that's what made the show great.
