If I were to walk up to you and tell you that I have the power to eliminate either Simpsons or South Park from TV so it will never be aired again, and then I told you that I was going to eliminate one of the two of them in exactly five minutes, as soon as you tell me which one you want me to eliminate.
Now, you must pick one, and give your reasons why. None of this "Flip a Coin" shit. If I were picking myself, I would say: I would ask Ugly Bastard to dump South Park and keep Simpsons on TV. Now, keep in mind, I love both of these shows quite a lot. But Simpsons has been around for far longer, and to be honest, I get more LPE (Laughs Per Episode) out of The Simpsons. May Kenny Rest In Peace... -Ugly Bastard |

hmm tough choice, i would have to go with SP being eliminated.
However if you had asked me this question during the height of south park, a few years ago, i would have gone with the simpsons being eliminated. The good thing about south park is that it doesnt hold back in its perverted, racist, or fat jokes whatsoever. In its prime it was the funniest tv show by far, but now its a rather streched out and not as funny. The simpsons know how to keep a show funny for a long time, so therefore i choose them that way i am garuanteed ill have a show to get a good kick from, for years to come. |

bottom line for me: simpsons has more intelligent humour and random humour than south park. the only thing south park has going for it is crassness, which they excel at, and i thought the movie was freaking hilarious, but that does not extract laughter out of me near as much as the sheer random funny shit that is apparent about every 6.12 seconds on the simpsons. i would say keep the simpsons.

Like those that have come before me, and those that will come after, I'll have to say that the Simpsons shall stay. I am a huge fan of South Park for its modern satirical point of view, but the the Simpson's constant ability to make me laugh cannot go unnoticed.
Right now I am in more of a South Park phase...but it is only a phase and, even whilst in the phase, I can recognize that the Simpsons is more deserving of existence than South Park. |

Goodbye Southpark.
Although the show has its moments, it will never be a simpsons. I don't think there is a better show on tv. I have watched the simpsons since before i can remember, I don't want to lose it now. |

You just can't go wrong with keeping the Simpsons.
I won't waste time by mentioning all the aforementioned reasons why Simpsons has to be the best show ever on TV, but I will add my own. The reason why SP has been able to have all it's crassness is because it's on cable and Comedy Central. Can you imagine if the Simpsons would have been on Comedy Central instead of FOX? It'd be even funnier. But even with it being held back (actually, when talking FOX, not by much) it still has that amount of "SHIT, ARE THEY ALLOWED TO SAY THAT?!" on network television. The Simpsons is by far one of the most innovative and incredibly humourous shows that will ever grace the airwaves, and it's been doing it consistently (although I started getting scared a few seasons ago). |

i've never been a fan of the show south park, i dont know how anyone could be..I wish someone would realy approach me and ask me such a question so i could tell them to kick fucking south park off this planet.
so, in my mind, this isnt even a question, Keep the Simpsons, keep the humor. |

Not really a fan of South Park, it would be eliminated for sure. Simpsons is hilarious and it's not just a bunch of stupid immature jokes. Although they are funny, they do get old.

I'd definately have to go with getting rid of South Park. As for my explination of why, I can only say that South Park is good, but the Simpsons is classic. They'll be showing the Simpsons on Nick at Night in a few years. It'll be on right after Seinfeld.
