Suffering from ads?

No, it's like The Simpsons only a bit different. More abstract. Some people would say it's more crude than the Simpsons, but I don't see that as a problem really.

I'm not sure how they translated it in Germany, but King of Queens is a different show. King of the Hill is an animated comedy set in small town Texas. It's really funny, though I'm not sure whether the humor translates all that easily, as a lot of it has to do with Texas. But IMO it's wierd and funny enough for other reasons to worth your while if you can find it.

no texan cartoon series here

how do you guys like King of Queens? I think it's alright, not a big fan of sitcoms though. same for Frasier, Seinfeld, Friends etc... though I have never seen the latter and given it's overrated-esque popularity probably never will

It doesn't translate to Canadian, so I doubt it would translate to German.

The show is good, but I think futurama is better, as were the first 7 seasons fo the Simpsons.

I liked the scene of how Stewie was concieved: they mock the Attack on the Death Star in episode 4, but with sperm. Brilliant.

But what is the greatest show ever created by Homo Sapien Sapien?

Family Guy is great! It's better than Futurama, and the current Simpsons. The early Simpsons and South Park are better, however.

I am sorry, but Futurama is much better than family guy: they get all the little things right. The episode where the all robot planets where they hate humans...perfect.

As for the best show ever? no clue.

Family Guy is indeed awesome.
No one can denie its brilliance with lines like.

"Hey, help that stole my purse"
"Who cares lady, I don't even know you"

or

"It's like what I try to teach the kids, don't trust whitey."

But yea, Futurama is damn good too, the only bad thing I have against it right now, is on Cartoon network they are playing the first season, and Bender's voice is really scratchy and some times unaudible.

The simpsons use to be pretty good, and now they are getting better, but for a time there, they were just random and a overall bad cartoon with no plot.
I know Family Guy has no plot really, but it works for them.

Ed, Edd, n Eddy > Family Guy > Futurama > The Simpsons

However, EEnE often comes on at difficult times for me. Thus Family Guy is my favorite show that I consistently watch.

Family Guy does indeed have some hilarious jokes and moments in it... Sadly, you have to wade through about 15 failed crap-jokes to get to the gold. And while that's happening, there's no interesting plot to be followed.

Futurama is exponentially better. The episodes are packed with SUCCESSFUL jokes, yet the plots are still strong and hold your attention. The episode where Bender meets God has to be one of the best of all time... for any show.
