Hmm.

I did, until Futurama blew them out of the water with it complete and utter betterness.

yeah but the important thing isnt the simpsons, its that someone has made addictive tomatoes :)

Fox screwed him over on Futurama so he started writing bollox simpsons episodes just to piss them off.

Fox News wanted to sue the simpsons cos they took the piss out of them. then realised the Simpsons is made by Fox. IDIOTS! so they almost tried to sue themselves.

D'oh!

Fox (almost) suing themselves. That's an idea to cherish.

Simpsons kicks ass, it's much better than Futurama

They are both ace just on an episode by episode basis, also the simpsons has been running for ages so the ideas aren't as fresh but Futurama only had a 'few' issues.
