simpsons
the best simpsons episodes are better than the best family guy episodes
the worst simpsons episodes are better than the worst family guy episodes
somehow family guy is still seething at trump while simpsons managed to move on and only did their most libtarded shit in shorts that ran separately from episodes while family guy recently did a bret kavanaugh episode with jokes near a decade late and ended of being one of their worst episodes of all time

I had a weird amount of friends who weren't allowed to watch The Simpsons when I was a kid in the 90's. Like there was a smattering of both conservative and liberal boomers who couldn't stand the way it poked at American culture.

Anyways, by the time Family Guy came out I wasn't in the mood for a cruder version of The Simpsons, which I stopped watching after Y2K in favor of cartoon network fare and animu fansubs.

American Dad never had Simpson's highs, but it never turned to complete shit so I can see your point.
Family Guy is a soulless humiliation ritual Seth needs to keep running so he can fund his other porjects, whose writers are occasionally clever enough to slip in something that on its own looks good regurgitated on Tik-Tok.

Yeah much better show on rewatch every season has great episodes. And even the not as good episodes are still decent. Bad Simpsons and family guy episodes are literally painful

their quality is inversely proportional where simpsons starts out a good show and eventually goes to irredeemable shit while family guy starts mediocre and ends up above average

American Dad keeps the rot at bay by letting a writer's room of Phish heads huff nitrous and literally write anything. Although my favorite gags feel improvised (even if scripted, it feels like they tell the actors to say the line in different ways and they animate around that. Best examples would be the "Tungee! Mister and Lady!" bit and the iconic "Matthew!" scene.)

I'm five years older than you. you really didn't have exposure to analog tv or cable? I'm not saying I don't believe you or anything, it's just a fascinating perspective watching younger people who had even more early exposure to the internet becoming adults and making sense of it.

This. Maybe a controversial opinion but even with the drop in quality I don't think the Simpsons is that bad, mostly bad by comparison to how good it once was and how repetitive it can be with its plots and the same jokes we've seen before and how celebrities get praised for existing compared to early seasons where they were often the punchline. There's only a couple of truly irredeemably bad episodes.
