Personally I find South Park to be hilarious, and is better now then it has ever been. Season 1 and 2 are probably the best seasons IMO, but season 3 sucked(besides Rain forest Shmainforest) I literally can't watch the DVD set, it's horrible. The kids really just stopped being Naive these passed 2 seasons. Season 5 they have the famous "Proper condom use" "Scott Tenorman Must Die(evil mastermind cartman)" Season 6 has Asspen, the Simpson's did it and what not(these where still 4 years ago). Personally I think this current season is one of their best seasons yet, the writing IMO is getting much better, then jokes have more meaning then the stupid slapstick humor that family guy does. You saw on this weeks episode, how incredibly easy it is to do Family Guy jokes, hell Matt and Trey did the 1 minute of Family Guy, and it was family guy to a T. I think a 10 year old can write a family guy episode, there is no thought into them at all. South Park's joke are a lot more thought into them, more satire and a lot more meaning. You aren't just watching a slapstick ohhh man he slipped on a banana show, nor is it really about naive kids anymore. To me it slipped more into a political show, making fun of how stupid the world is today. I find that to be much funnier then slapstick comedy, because the jokes actually have relevance to the world, and they openly slap people in the face(like Wednesday, they slapped comedy central in the face)
