Homer, Peter Griffin or Cartman

Waylander

Was having an arguement with a few freinds the other night about who was the best character. I think Homer wins it hands down for longevity and also general amusement. The choices, as the thread title may suggest are Homer, Peter Grifiin (Family Guy ) or Cartman (Southpark). We were discussing these three characters specifically that is why there is no other option in the poll.

Homer, in his heyday, for me anyway.

Peter Griffin!

"Dance with me lois, dance the dance of life!"

Dances around and crashes into a shelf, knocking himself unconsious and the shelfing falls on top of him.

Creamy Goodness

Homer in his prime
cartman
peter

even though peter is last doesn't mean he ain't funny

Kazaanova

"I'm just laying around jacking it"
"Jacking it? Jacking what?"
"Why my big hot spicy boner of course, Dad."
Cartman if my favourite character. Although I have to admit that Peter is funnier and Homer used to be funny.

Dinner

Peter is the best, then Homer, then Cartman.

Peter: It's a beautiful baby girl!
Carol: Oh, a girl! I'm so happy!
Peter: But it has a penis. (Picks up scalpel.) I'll take care of that.
Lois: Peter, No!

Chris: Dad, what's the blow-hole for?
Peter: I'll tell you what it's not for, son. And when I do, you'll understand why I can never go back to Sea World.

Peter: Oh my god, Brian, there's a message in my Alphabits. It says, 'Oooooo.'
Brian: Peter, those are Cheerios.

The old Homer. Peter Griffin has some very funny lines but his voice seriously irritates me.

marshmallow

homer was really funny, not so much now..

peter griffin for me but homer came close 2nd

Tusky

Peter: I'll handle it, Lois. I read a book about this sort of thing once.
Brian: Are you sure it was a book? Are you sure it wasn't nothing?
Peter: Oh yeah.

Peter: I got an idea, an idea so smart my head would explode if I even began to know what I was talking about.

Lois: Peter, theres a hooker on the bed!
Hooker: Hi.
Peter: Stand perfectly still Lois, their vision is based on movement.
(Pause)
Hooker: Where'd you go?

Lois: A woman is not an object.
Peter: Your mother is right, son. Listen to what it says.
Lois: Peter!

i dont remember homer or cartman having a 10 minute fight with a man in a chicken suit over a bad coupon!

Classic! Peter all the way!

Homer had me at doh.

Homer is extremely funny, and somtimes when I watch the old episodes he'll still make me laugh. But theres no point lying about it, Peters rendition of "Cant Touch This" is probably funnier than everything Homers said and done in the past 9 seasons of the Simpsons combined.

Police Officer: Hey. That's Against the law. You're coming with me.
Peter Griffin: [singing to the tune of U Can't Touch this] Ah ah ah. Can't Touch Me/ Can't Touch me/ Ja ja ja ja just like the bad guy/ from Lethal Weapon 2/ I've got diplomatic Immunity/ so Hammer, you can't sue/ I can write graffiti even jay-walk in the streets/ I can Riot, loot, not give a hoot, and touch your sister's teat/ Can't touch me/ Can't touch me/
Adam West: What in God's name is he doing?
Peter Griffin: Can't Touch me.
Cleveland: I believe that's the worm.
Peter Griffin: [still singing] Can't touch me/ STOP, Peter time/ I'm a big shot, there's no doubt/ light a fire then pee it out/ Don't like it, kiss my rump/ Just for a minute, let's all do the bump/ Can't touch me/ Yeah, do the Peter Griffin Bump/ Can't touch me/ I'm Presidential Peter/ Interns think I'm hot/ Don't care if you're handicapped, I'll still park in your spot/ I've been around the world/ from Hartford to Back Bay/ It's Peter, Go Peter, I'm so Peter, Yo Peter, Let's see Regis rap this way/ Can't touch me.

Also I really love:
[Peter has to come up with a fake name on the spot, so he looks around the room to get inspiration]
Peter Griffin: Uh... my name is...
[he sees a pea]
Peter Griffin: Pea...
[he sees a woman crying]
Peter Griffin: ... tear...
[he sees a Griffin fly by]
Peter Griffin: ... Griffin. Peter Griffin.

I'll have to stop, theres too many. Cartman is still my favourite though.

Oh god yeah, that was absolutely classic. Its when he was in rehab or something, wasn't it? Haven't watched that episode in awhile!

Homer in his prime.....I find Family Guy ok but it's not really on the same cleverness level as the Simpsons when they were in top shape.

- Marge, quick, how many kids do we have have? No time, I'll just estimate. 9!

(Marge): Homer, is this the way you pictured married life?
(Homer): Yup, pretty much. Except we drove around in a van solving mysteries.

You never know when an old calendar might come in handy! Sure, it's not 1985 right now, but who knows what tomorrow will bring.

It's not easy to juggle a pregnant wife and a troubled child, but somehow I managed to fit in 8 hours of TV a day.

Getting out of jury duty is easy. The trick is to say you're prejudiced against all races.

(Homer singing): When a fire starts to burn, there's a lesson you must learn. Something, something, then you'll see, you'll avoid catastrophe ... DOH!

(Lisa): Dad, please, for the last time, I beg you: don't lower yourself to the level of the mob!
(Homer): Lisa, maybe if I'm part of that mob, I can help steer it in wise directions. Now, where's my giant foam cowboy hat and airhorn?

(Marge): Lisa, Bart, what did you two learn in Sunday School today?
(Lisa): The answers to deep theological questions.
(Bart): Yeah, among other things, apes can't get into heaven.
(Homer): What? Those cute little monkeys? That's terrible. Who told you that?
(Bart): Our teacher.
(Homer): I can understand how they wouldn't let in those wild jungle apes, but what about those really smart ones who live among us? Who roller-skate and smoke cigars?

(Homer): You know, when I was a boy, I really wanted a catcher's mitt, but my dad wouldn't get it for me. So I held my breath until I passed out and banged my head on the coffee table. [cheerily] The doctor thought I might have brain damage.
(Bart): Dad, what's the point of this story?
(Homer): I like stories.

(Lisa): Dad, we did something very BAD!
(Homer): Did you wreck the car?
(Bart): No.
(Homer): Did you raise the dead?
(Lisa): Yes!
(Homer): But the car's OK?
(Bart & Lisa): Uh-huh.
(Homer): Alright then.

I think we can see quite clearly that Hommy is the man and Peter is a wannabe.

Probably my favourite Simpsons piece of all time.

[Family is talking about Peter's Drinking problem]
Brian Griffin: And remember the time when you had an Irish Coffee before we went to see "Philadelphia?"
[Shows them in a movie theater]
Peter: Ah, yeah. It's the guy from "Big." Tom Hanks Everything he says is a riot.
Tom Hanks: I have AIDS.
[Peter starts laughing uncontrollably]

tvnutz

Peter a wannabe? Please!

Family Guy is better than the Simpsons now because the simpsons just sucks donkey balls,but even the simpsons in its prime wasnt as funny as Family Guy.FG can have you laughing hysterically for minutes on end whereas the simpsons had you laughing for a few seconds.

Peter Griffin: You know those Germans; if you don't join the party, they come get you.

Peter Griffin: Holy crip, he's a crapple.

Lois Griffin: You should spend some time with our kids, Peter. And with me.
Peter Griffin: Uh, what could me and you do together?
[Lois giggles]
Peter Griffin: Lois. You've got a sick mind.
Lois Griffin: Peter, I'm talking about making love.
Peter Griffin: Oh. I thought you wanted us to murder the children and harvest their organs for beer money.

Peter Griffin: Okay, okay, wait, here's another one. Why do women have boobs? So you got something to look at while you're talking to them.
[everybody laughs]
Man: Good one Peter.
Man 2: That's what they're for all right.
Lady: Are you telling jokes? I love jokes.
Peter Griffin: All right, then you'll love this one, okay. Why do women have boobs?
[she stares at him angrily]
Peter Griffin: So you got something to look at while you're talking to them
[she's shocked, then Peter laughs]
Peter Griffin: So you got something you look at while you're talking to them
[laughs]
Peter Griffin: So you got - Y-you want to see me, Mr. Weed?

Peter Griffin: Come on. Let's go drink till we can't feel feelings any more.

and so on...

tvnutz

also FG is just far more daring than the Simpsons,and it doesnt have all the touchy feely crap! How damn annoying is Lisa?? and they always have a bonding happy ending blah blah. Meg walks in on her family reading her diary and they continue!

Also I dont recall the simpsons ever having a pervert Geppeto,Walt Disney making Minnie Mouse strip,Ted Turner having sex with a dog and producing puppies with Ted Turner heads,Samuel L Jackson in a porn movie,Adam West as mayor etc!

Roar

not a peter moment but reading this thread reminded me of this...

(police auction)

officer: our first is this pair of panties we took from a prostitute
quagmire: FIFTY BUCKS!!!
officer: she had 9 stds...
quagmire:................... 45 BUCKS!
officer: when we arrested her she wet herself
quagmire:....... 50 bucks!!!

tvnutz

lol ye Quagmire is brilliant.

this also isnt Peter but its damn funny if you know about American TV Networks.

Chris Griffin: Where do you think you go when you die?
Southern boy/girl: I learned from church that if you're good you go to heaven but if you're bad, you go to a place where the dead believe they're still living and they pray for death but death won't come.
Chris Griffin: UPN?
