So basically they want to ruin one of the only good shows they have going for them? Smart move Fox.

They wouldn't exactly be ruining it. From what I gather, the shows are already drawn and voiced, they just need to be edited together. The editing process is what Fox is saying they will do on their own. While it is not like Fox is going to be getting someone else to do voices, it is still in very poor taste to go behind MacFarlane's back and work on a show that is distinctly his. -------------

I have the same view. I was never really a fan of Family Guy. It has it's little moments of glory that get a chuckle out of me, but South Park will always be greater in my eyes. ------------- [IMG]http://i14.tinypic.com/73e0l8j.jpg"> Represent! |

HAHAHA!!! I stopped watching south park after it just seemed like a rerun over and over again... nothing is humorous about that show anymore... Most all "cartoons" are not funny to me anymore or it's just such a "rerun idea" they are getting old. -------------

South Park still has crazily original show ideas... it amazes me. I mean honestly, who can think up an episode where Bono is a living piece of crap? None other than the genius minds of Trey Parker and Matt Stone. ------------- <FOUR MEGS for a sig? Are you kidding me?!> |

Are you kidding? South Park is one of the most brilliant parodies of contemporary society I've ever seen. The recent Guitar Hero episode, for instance. SP lampoons trends and social phenomena brilliantly. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

And as cheap as some of the laughs are, the overall message behind the majority of the episodes are amazing. |

South Park, The Simpsons, and Family Guy have all jumped the shark. Futurama went out solid and on top. -------------

Isn't futurama coming back in 2008? |

I used to think South Park had jumped the shark, they had a couple crappy seasons, but they've been awesome lately. |

Ehh I still think they're past their prime. I guess it all depends on what kind of humor you enjoy most.

Yeah, Futurama was good from start to finish.
The simpsons has been getting horrible in recent seasons since they started turning into a lot like family guy. they now focus on random humor and fail at it. The 1.5 hour movie had about as many funny scenes as a 30 minute show (the critics liked it, proving they are idiots) Family has been going downhill since season one. I don't watch South Park that often but when I do, it is hilarious. American Dad seems to be underrated and underwatched. It is a decent show and has stayed steadily mediocre since it's start. ------------- <just say no to unnecessarily sexualized sigs> |

| I watch Futurama every night on Cartoon network and it hasn't gotten old even though I've seen each episode at least 3 times. |

I like cartoons. I think South Park, Family Guy, The Simpsons, and whatnot are still funny. ------------- X |

I always hear people saying how much Family Guy sucks now, but I just watched a few episodes of Season 6 with my friend lately, and they were hilarious. |

I have serious family guy and south park marathons all the time.
The shows are still funny within they're context. ------------- A second class drive is always better than a first class walk. |

| The cool part about South Park is how it can stay so current. They have shows out about some hot topic issue, days after it becomes a hot topic issue. |

And now they no longer bleep anything on southpark. -------------

i watched a bit of the new episode. It just seemed thrown together. Even most of the jokes weren't even funny. If i where Seth, i'd be hella pissed.
