Family Guy vs. Simpsons (Characters)

[CyclicNightmare]

This is my first attempt at a tournament, so bear with me. This is a very simple concept. You simply pick the better character. Try to base it more on who makes you laugh the most or who creates the most/ finds hirself in the most comic situations. Or, just pick your favorite. This isn't exactly scientific. So, w/o further ado, I give you the Family Guy vs. The Simpsons character tournament.

Round 1:

Lois vs. Marge, 7-5
Chris vs. Bart, 4-9
Meg vs. Lisa, 7-6

Quagmire vs. Lenny, 9-2

Thanks Slade. My vote however, goes to Lois. I'm actually less annoyed by Lois' voice than I am by Marge's. Especially when Marge sings.

[RicochetShaw]

Marge!

[Raw Chili]

Lois

[DevilMonkey]

Damn. . . Hmm. This is a toughie. I vote for Lois because she finds diria funny or however you spell it :D

[Mick]

Marge

[psycho path]

Equally. But Lois is sexier, so her.:D

[Slim]

Marge

[CyclicNightmare]

5-4 Lois

I'll give it a bit more time.

VS.
Bart:
http://www.wvah.com/programs/simpsons/bart.gif

[Tom Samborski]

Chris

[CyclicNightmare]

My vote goes to Bart. I often find Chris annoying and not really funny at all. (Though I adore Seth Green.)

[Pumpkinhead]

Bart. I agree that Chris is annoying.

[Mikey2Dope]

Bart

[DevilMonkey]

Bart is very commercial compared to Chris. I love both so I will vote to the loser so far; Chris Griffin.

[Frank the Tank]

Bart

[RickySlade]

Bart by far.

[CyclicNightmare]

5-2 Bart

[Slim]

Bart

[XCoRyX]

bart just because family guy sucks...

Meg

[The Claw]

Meg I guess.

[RickySlade]

Lisa

[TheAxeGrinder]

Even though both characters get on my nerves, I'd choose Lisa over Meg.

[Frank the Tank]

Meg

[Clarkey07]

Meg

[ANavissi500]

I'm gonna vote for Lisa on this one. And this is my 500th post (woo!) go me!

[Mikey2Dope]

Lisa

[screamer581]

Lisa by far!!

[CyclicNightmare]

5-5 Tie.

Wow, a lot closer than I thought. I'll go with Lisa, the one who i hate the least.

With my vote, it's now 6-5 Lisa.

[DevilMonkey]

Damn is this an hard question. But uh, Lisa can be way more annoying. And each time I hear Meg I think of a hilarious moment in Family Guy from "Fifteen Minutes of Shame". . . "I can't beleive you would do this to us Meg. . . . .Maybe now I won't give you the antidote. . "- " TO WHAT?!"- "To the poisin you just drank MUAHAHAH-MUAHAAHHA" - "This isn't normal!" This made me laugh so I vote Meg. . And when I think of Lisa I always think of Bleeding gums Murphey and that was so sad when he died and I don't like to be dpressed so I definantly vote for Meg ;)

[The Delfonics]

MEG GRIFFIN

Thanks for the explanation Monkey. The rest of you could at least give a line or two about why you voted for who you did.

[DevilMonkey]

Com on Meg won!

[Raw Chili]

I know, next match, meg is the winner

[CyclicNightmare]

Geez guys, take it easy for a minute. Lisa was winning and Meg came from behind. I thought there might be another lead change. Anyways, Meg wins 7-6.

Next match:

STEWIE:
http://www.planet-familyguy.com/downloads/clipart/stewie04.gif
VS.
MAGGIE:
http://www.synergizedsolutions.com/simpsons/images/maggiestanding.gif

Unless I'm mistaken, this should be a slaughter. I will try to make it most merciful for Maggie. I, of course, vote Stewie, arguably the funniest character in the entire show.

[screamer581]

Stewie obviously...but I am quite disappointed that the annoying and not very funny Meg beat Lisa!!!

[The Claw]

Stewie

[Slim]

Stewie

[TheAxeGrinder]

Is this even a match? Stewie wins.

[CyclicNightmare]

5-0, Stewie. Like I said, nice and merciful.

Next match:
BRIAN:
http://www.planet-familyguy.com/downloads/clipart/brian04.gif
VS.
RALPH:
http://www.sbs.is/Simpsons/Index/Personur/ralph.gif

[Raw Chili]

Brain

[screamer581]

RALPH, I don't find Brian that funny actually.

[Pumpkinhead]

Brian's funny, but Ralph is just great (although his comedic value is slowly wearing off).

[CyclicNightmare]

I know he is better developed because he is a main character, but I believe Brian fills his role on the show better. He is a great foil for Stewie and has a unique relationship to each of the characters on the show. Don't get me wrong, Ralph is hilarious, but my vote goes to Brian.

[charliebobo]

Brian

[RickySlade]

Ralph. Brian is one of the worst characters on the show. His humor is a little dry for my taste. Ralph on the other hand is one of the best comedic characters on The Simpsons.

[Mikey2Dope]

Ralph

[CyclicNightmare]

4-3 Ralph. I smell a close one.

[Frank the Tank]

Ralph

[Raw Chili]

cmon, where are the brain fans??? It boggles the mind that people actually think The Simpsons hold a candle to The Family Guy to begin with.

[RickySlade]

Oh c'mon. Yeah I like both shows but the Simpsons is genius. Family Guy was cancelled, The Simpsons have been on the air for over a decade.

[DevilMonkey]

Damn you vile Cyclic Nightmare ;) Just joking, you ended the Stewie match too early. :( I vote for Brian, yes Ralph[h is absolutely hilarious with his silly comments but he isn't in every episode so when we do see him were sure for a laugh. But I pick Brian because he is a main character and he is hilarious. I love everything about him. He can be so funny. Peter: "I read that in a book one time. " Brian: "Are you sure it was a book. . ? Are you sure it wasn't NOTHING?" Peter: "Oh yeah that’s what it was :D" Also my favorite episode is Brian Wallows and Peter Swallows and the main plot besides the bird's in Peter's beard is Brian falling in love with the old hag. I talk too much :D Oh yeah and I love the song that Brian sings in the same episode ;)

[The Delfonics]

Sorry, im a long time Simpsons fan but as soon as Family Guy came on I had a new favorite show.

BRIAN

[The Claw]

Brians hilarious but I just have to give it to Ralph

[Grim H.]

I'm gonna go with Brian. Something about a talking dog who is also an alcoholic is just plain hilarious...

[CyclicNightmare]

6-6 Let's break this thing.

[sharp shooter]

I can believe you people..Brian Griffin Is god compared to that loathing moron Ralph wiggin..People like you who will never silence simpsons and their grueling physical comedy

If you didnt understood, I voted Brian

[Slim]

Ralph

[MacReady]

I am I the only one who's noticed that Raw Chili keeps calling Brian "Brain"?

[screamer581]

Come on Simpsons fans, unite!

[screamer581]

Originally posted by MacReady

Unless it was a typo (which I doubt), in one of the episodes, a dog judge calls out his name, "Brain". So I assume that is the reason he is calling Brian, "Brain".

[heatherl0w]

Brian!

[Scopeless]

Brian by far.
Every episode that is mostly about him is hilarious.

[Raw Chili]

It was intentional, for any fans to pick up on the reference to that particular(sp??) show.

[TheAxeGrinder]

I'd have to say Ralph, since he cracks me up with practically everything he says.

[Hogie]

Brian... mainly because Family Guy far outweighs the Simpsons, also because Ralph isn't a character who isn't a main character, as someone else already said.

[TheAxeGrinder]

BLASPHAMY! Family Guy wouldn't have gotten a single show out if it hadn't been for the Simpsons. So what if Ralph isn't a main character, he's still funny, and if you can do a better job of this, then go right ahead.

That may be true, but Family Guy blew the Simpsons out of the water when it came on the air. The only reason it failed was because FOX moved it around timeslot wise and didn't really advertise the fact, this killed a bunch of viewers because they didn't know when it was on. I WAS ONE OF THOSE VIEWERS AND THE FACT HAUNTS ME EVERYDAY!!!!

I am not denying the fact that Ralph is funny, he is very funny, in fact I quoted him in my yearbook write-up when I graduated highschool. But the simple fact is Brian is a main character and Ralph is not a main character, that's comparing apples and oranges.

[CyclicNightmare]

10-8. Wow. That was a close one. I understand the match was pretty much apples and oranges, due to Brian being a more prominent character, but it turned out to be a great match anyway.

Next match:
CLEVELAND VS. CARL
http://www.planet-familyguy.com/downloads/clipart/cleveland03.gifhttp://www.synergizedsolutions.com/simpsons/pictures/others/carl.gif

[CyclicNightmare]

By the way, I very pleased to have sparked such Family Guy versus Simpsons debate. This is great, let's keep it going.

[ANavissi500]

I like both shows, but Family Guy is the better of the two. As for the characters I think I will go will Cleveland because Karl is at his best when Lenny is there, esp. the whole "soulmate" epsidoe with the oil derrick. But Karl just by himself isnt that cool.

Cleveland

[charliebobo]

Karl

[sharp shooter]

Cleveland

[Hogie]

Cleveland, in all his seriousness, nearly everything he says is funny.

"WHEN'S IT GONNA BE MY TURN!!??!?!??"

[Mick]

Carl

Not Karl for chrissakes! :eek:

Karl was Homer's gay assistant in "Simpson and Delilah", not the "urban Lenny" who works at the power plant.

[The Mang]

CLEVELAND

[RickySlade]

Carl.

I'm never voting Family Guy again. Can I ask seriously how many of you watched it when It was actually on the air?

[CyclicNightmare]

4-3 Cleveland

I wish I had a better explanation, but my vote goes to Cleveland for the quote from the episode with the police auction. "Are you going to sell anything that's not gross?"

5-3

[Mikey2Dope]

Carl

[TheAxeGrinder]

I'll have to stick with Carl on this one, plus where did u get that drawing of Cleveland?

[Grand13]

Cleveland, his lines are just great

[Frank the Tank]

Carl

In my little opinion.
The Simpsons in their prime was 1000 times better than Family Guy will ever be.

[DevilMonkey]

Brian won!

[RickySlade]

Fucking agreed. Even Simpsons in their shittiest season is better then Family Guy.

If you have done this tournament 3 years ago NO ONE would have voted for Family Guy. I watched Family Guy when it was on the air. Now it's sudden burst of popularity is skyrocketing it to the greatest show ever? Give me a break.

Damn straight, I watched half of the first season and while I like the show, I think Family Guy is one of the most overrated shows in tv history.

Truer word have never been spoken!!! Carl for me too!

[Hogie]

Oh you guys are all idiots!!! Have you seen the Simpsons today? Absolute garbage. The first 8 or so seasons were the only good ones and they still don't make up for what's coming out today. If you look at the Simpsons and Family Guy by season, you'll see that the first season of Simpsons was totally lame, whereas the first season of Family Guy kicked ass! The first season of Family Guy easily compares to about the 3rd season of the Simpsons, but it still far outshines it in hilarity factor. And the show continued to get better each season.

Seriously, count how many times you laugh at the Simpsons per episode, you do the same for an episode of Family Guy and that number is easily tripled. If the Simpsons had came out at the same time as Family Guy, it would have been shit on and cancelled so quickly you wouldn't know what hit you.

[RickySlade]

and yes hogie, i am an idiot.

.....Ok, it's OBVIOUS all these people are the same. A Family Guy fan made these numerous accounts just for more votes... (This is obvious because all these accounts have been made within the last few days and have very limited posts) ensuring a win by the Family Guy characters. I actually can tell who's doing this, but I'll cut you some slack and not report this. But, if you do this again, I'm going to report you. Don't pull that kind of stuff on this board. It's not cool, plus this a board of intelligent schmoes... don't undermind us.

Well, that's just as bad don't you think? Just joining these forums to promote something (in this case, Family Guy Tournaments) is SPAMMING. That's a taboo among these forums. Actually, rule number 5 of these forums (which you and the others agreed to when signing up) is .....


5) NO FUCKIN' SPAMMING!

[Grand13]

actually i've only made one account and its this one. I saw a link to this topic on another toon website, but if anyone else first saw it like me, then they all probably signed up to get their vote in. unless you can check IPs they are all probably different people

Uh oh, you caught me, I give up, you're right, everyone of the accounts that voted for any Family Guy character has been me all along. You see, I am Superman, I can travel 10 times faster than the speed of sound, and since I am Superman I've accumulated vast ammounts of wealth to buy many great mansions all across North America. But I guess you figured out that I fly back and forth to each of these mansions as to change my IP addresses to cast a vote for characters from my favorite toon show to ensure that they win while hopefully dooping dimwits into believing that I am many different people. I admit defeat, you are much too intelligent for me, for I am but a fool and you are a geneous.

[Spooner]

Ha! Good one Hoj.

Anyway, I vote for Cleveland. He has great 1 liners. "I can't get Cleveland Jr. to sit still for anything. Sometimes I think he has the epilepsy. Then I just go see what's on the TV."

Cleveland Jr's great too, but that's for another time...

[Frank the Tank]

Not to change the topic, but in this thread their is an awful lot of posters with less than 10 replies all voting for a Family Guy character. Something weird is going on.

[Hogie]

Listen buddy, just cause I don't have 3000 posts doesn't mean I don't count! I just heard about this forum today, and I wasn't going to be posting here but the place didn't seem so bad so I joined, and since I joined I'm voicing my opinion, which joining entitles me to do. So tough luck, Swanson.

You're the stoopidest guy yet, I said I wasn't going to post anything, but I felt this forum was alright so I decided to join. Dicks like you make people want to leave, but you know what, I never will leave now just to spite your sorry ass. You say I need to get a life, well I say the same to you buddy, mind your own freaking business.

[staticprevails]

just because there are a lot of us voting for the same thing doesn't mean it's spamming, we all love family guy and want to vote for it's characters, we just want family guy to win, so about 5 of us came here and voted for it.

[Spooner]

Dicks like you make people want to leave, but you know what, I never will leave now just to spite your sorry ass.


Isn't this how DYA got all it's members? Marion pisses em off and then they stay to spite him? Ha. Similarities are endless. No, wait, actually they end there.

Hey, you think Trev is a member of these baords? The guys seen about a billion movies. If he isn't, he should be.

Anyway, back OT- Cleveland is just funnier than Carl is. Carl has a couple good lines every once in awhile, but Cleveland's just priceless. Simpsons could survive w/o Carl, but FG sans Cleveland would take a huge hit.

And whoever said FG is less than The ISmpsons because w/o the Simpsons there'd be no Family Guy... True, but by that standard, you can't possibly be better than your parents because without them there'd be no you. And TV can't possibly be better than radio because without Radio there'd be no TV. That argument is tired. Simpsons was (was) but now it's time for FOX to pull it's head out of it's ass and get this show back on the air so it can be The Simpsons successor like it was meant to be.

[CyclicNightmare]

11-7 Cleveland wins. Hmm, I have noticed all the Infant posters, but I just figured I was doing a good job introducing people to JoBlo. I agree that if they joined merely to swing this tourney in the direction of Family Guy that that is really sad. I am glad to have sparked such great discussion, but let's be careful with our words and try to keep our posts tournament related. I don't want this thread closed. Anyway...

Next Round:
QUAGMIRE:

It was in the clip art section of a Family Guy site. I know it sucks but it matched well with the pic of Carl.

[Frank the Tank]

Lenny

[The Claw]

Quagmire

[CyclicNightmare]

With all the new schmoes joining to support Family Guy, I hope the Simpsons fans are prepared for the war. It's gonna be quite interesting.

[DevilMonkey]

Quagmire all the way baby! I mean come on, Lenny isn't even funny to begin with. I always think of that scene when Lenny and Carl are about to hit eachother in their cars while talking to eachother on their cell phone about each ther which in my opinion wansn't very funny, but with Quagmire, ooo! "Dear Diary, Jack Pot!" and his " Gigidy, Gigidy, Gigidy!' is hilarious. He gets my vote that sex dog. Quagmire

Oh yeah I forgot. . .

"I'm going to microwave a bagel and have sex with it."

"Butter is in the Fridge'

Hehehehe

[Raw Chili]

Quagmire

[CyclicNightmare]

My vote also goes Quagmire. I love all the lines that DevilMonkey quoted. But my favorite is:
"How old are you?"
"16"
"18?"
"Mom!"
"I like where this is going. Gigidy, gigidy, gigidy."

Let's not forget that Lenny is very funny too. "My eye! The doctor told me not to get pudding in it!"

[Spooner]

Hey, if you wanna advertise this tourney at nohomers or some other Simpsons board, you go ahead and do that, we won't complain.

I'm gonna look a homer (in the adjective sense of the word) by going with another FG character but damn it's gotta be [b]Quagmire[/i]. Quagmire has such great lines (especially some really great ones that got cut, which yyou can see if you have the Vol. 2 DVD) and Lenny, while sometimes funny, isn't used consistently enough to comapre to Quagmire.

Don't sound so sure. Many of the stronger Simpsons characters have yet to appear. In my opinion, names like Monty Burns and Abe Simpson are shoo-ins to win their respective rounds. Think of who's been beaten. It doesn't seem strange that characters like Maggie, Ralph, and Carl would lose to the likes of Stewie, Brian, and Cleveland, respectively.

I thought Ralph was one of the most loved Simpsons characters around and if Peter beats Homer I'm leaving this thread.

[The Mang]

Yeah, I came over here just to help a tv show. Ya know, thats all I ever wanted to do with my life.

To tell you the truth, I just found this forum today, from the link that was posted earlier on DamnYouAll.net, which I just found yesterday. Whoever proposed the whole conspiracy theory is a complete and utter idiot. Now go sit in the corner, "RicochetShaw."

Oh yeah, I vote for Quagmire.

You don't really need to help Family Guy, though before the seven new fans joined this show was probably the second or third most popular show here.

I think the general consensus was that it came down to a regular character versus a minor character. Please tell me why you would leave the thread if Peter beats Homer.

Just because my favorite character on a tv show ever would be out. Just think of the Homer of 1995 when you vote, not 2003.

One of the rules is to not disrespect our fellow schmos and that includes calling people names like idiots, and dicks. Which is what he did. One of our good posters Movies35 was banned for calling someone a dick.

Plus Hogie, you seriously need to start behaving more. You seem like a cool guy and eveything and I understand you wanna stick around but the main reaon people get banned is for insulting someone else. Like calling them "Stupd" or a "Dumbass". If you dissagree with someone say why and not that they're a dumb ass too. BTW YOU HAVE THE COOLEST AVATAR I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE!

"Whats with the long face?" - "Its this girll, its like there a different species or something." - "Girls. . WHO needs em'? You like Popsicles? Then why don't you come down to the celler i got lots of cold popsicles down there." - "No thanks. Bye mister. . . *rides away* weird-o" - "Get back her you pigsly son of a bitch".

Really I remember him calling Quentin a dickhead or something for saying that his topic doesn't belong here.

[DevilMonkey]

Sadly Hoogie was banned. Tis a great shame but he had it coming when he said Ricky Slade was teh stoopidest one yet. I'm going to steal his avatar ;) But maybe your right.

[JoBlo]

Everyone please stick to the topic at hand, otherwise we will have to close this thread.

A member of this thread has already been BANNED from our board for disrespecting his fellow schmoes, and I ask anyone else who has recently joined, and who doesn't remember the RULES to which they agreed when they joined, to re-read them here: http://www.joblo.com/rules.htm

Specifically, rules #1 an #2.

Hmm, very tough choice, but my vote goes to Tom and Diane.

P.S. I know I butchered the Brockman quote. If someone knows how it really goes, let me know.

One, maybe two, of "them" merely mentioned DYA as a way of disproving your theory that they are all the same person. I do not see how this makes them all spammers. But I'm not sure what really constitutes spamming in the first place. I assume if they were all guilty of spamming, a proper authority would have already had them removed. As for their votes, I find that they are just as valid as the next schmoe.

We can't bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. One
trick is to tell 'em stories that don't go anywhere...like the
time I took the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new
heel for my shoe, so I decided to go over to Morganville,
which was what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I
tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time.
Now to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days nickels
had pictures of bumblebees on them. "Give me five bees for a
quarter," you'd say. Now where was I? Oh yeah...the
important thing was that I had an onion tied to my
belt...which was the style at the time. You could not get any
white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could
get was those big yellow ones...
