I loved family guy back when it first aired. The radnomness was new then, and South park was still more about shock value than anything. Family Guy accomplished something big when it was brought back, but it wound up like pet semetary, what came back was changed (some would say evil). Now it is a mindless zombie compared to what it was.
In contrast, South Park has matured. their balls have grown, and so has their insightfulness.I am impressed that they can still shock me, jaded as i am. Watch Stanley's Cup (season 11 finale), the end caught me completely of guard.
Plus, it is just about the only thing that can come close to offend me in my adult life. I love that.
