    American Dad
    family guy is more risky and doesn't pull any punches...american dad is kinda toned down a bit...so family guy...the characters are way more established in family guy too so maybe that helps

    A better poll would be American Dad vs Family Guy Season 4. Counting previous seasons of 'Family Guy', it wins hands down. Measurng AD solely against the current season of FG and we have a closer poll. FG still wins out based on familiarity, etc. but AD is making a lot of headway.

    I totally agree with this...FG seasons 1-3,no contest,even better than the old simpsons! i am enjoying FG season 4,i dont think it is bad as some people have said,but Im finding myself enjoying American dad more then thems oem days.

    by the way,when are news eps on FOX? or are they finished for the summer?

    I'm enjoying S4 of Family Guy, but also American Dad. AD does seem to be funnier though as I found a few episodes of FG to be rather dull this time. Out of the seven episodes of each that I've seen I'd give Family Guy 3 good ones but American Dad probably had 4 or 5 good ones, the rest were OK.

    On these merits though I reserve the right not to vote as taking previous seasons of Family Guy into account it wins, no contest. However, right now American Dad does seem to be better. Maybe Seth MacFarlane just can't do two good comedy cartoons at the same time and needs to concentrate on one at a time. Hopefully this is the case as I'd really like to see Family Guy come back to it's own again.

    I thought this season of Family Guy was great, but then at the weekend I went back to my Season 1 DVD for the first time in ages and it's so much funnier. Not that it's starting to go stale or anything, just not quite up to those exceptionally high standards recently.

    American Dad on the other hand started poorly I thought, but it's been getting better and better. Very similar shows and they've both had good and bad episodes this season so it's really hard to choose which is better. Family Guy definitely wins if you included previous seasons though.

    American Dad
    "Did you see where they went?"

    "Who?"


    ".......the black guys that did this."

    American Dad has the potential to be just as good as FM (with scenes like the one above) but FM still is the undisputed champion. I would agree that both series have had rather mediocre episodes this season though. Here's hoping for a good finish to the season.
