"Remember that time I..." NOT FUNNY. When I speak to people about Family Guy, they usually say its better than the Simpsons, as the Simpsons is a 'kids show' or for family audiences. However, I think that because the Simpsons are geared towards a family audience it makes the jokes so much more subtle, veiled and clever. For example, I was watching the episode yesturday where Lisa visits the creator of Malibu Stacey, and delivers the line "Yeah, I'd hate it if my family's name was used to brand cheap merchandise". You have to think about it for a while, but that is an extremely clever and intelligent joke, that you might not get the first time. Thats why the Simpsons are timeless, and Family Guy isn't...
