Choices! Choices everywhere!

Okay, so the choice seems simple right? Wrong! On the one hand we have Family Guy, which I find frankly hilarious, and have done for many years, but then recently I rediscovered the joy of Scrubs, which I find likewise hilarious, and also has just so much heart to it it takes my breath away. Then of course we have Futurama, which is easier at first to cast aside, but then I think back over it and ZOMG! It's just so good! It has shovelloads of humour and not a little heart. Family Guy is naturally more or less heartless :D But still hilarious.

So there it is. Having forced you to choose, what do you choose? (I didn't include an 'other' option because this is a poll jst for FG, Scrubs and Futurama - deal with it :p)

I have to say Scrubs, but only because I have Futurama on DVD.

Family Guy has sucked ever since they got back on FOX...

You Monster!!! But by a hairs breadth I'd have to choose.........


FUTURAMA

Welcome to the World Of Tomorrow!

I love Leela, Fry, Bender, The Professor, Zoidberg, and Glur of Omicron Persei 8:D

By the merest of mere mereosities I've thrown my lot in with Scrubs. Maybe I'll live to regret this moment. I hope not.

Family Guy's alright, if a tad random. Futurama is much, much smarter, though.

:D Some of the episodes make me choke up.

If you didn't cry at the end of the episode "Jurassic Bark" (the one with Fry's dog), you're a cold-hearted bastard...

Episode four "My Old Lady" with Mrs. Tanner and so forth, that one really got me. More than any other tv show - any other non-real-life event actually. Like majorly hugely got me. But it also made me laugh, which is frankly awesome :)

Oh man just the ending of that was so sad! :( Poor Seymour, I felt so, well, sad... :(

Whether you like to admit it or not, the show that gave the world Gumbercules is by far mankind's greatest acheivement.

Futurama will always rule mankind, chumps and chumpettes.

Don't forget the Hypnotoad, and Zombie Jesus.

The one where all three of the people that Turk, JD, and ...the girl... dammit, I can't remember her name... anyway, all of their patients died... that was very sad...

Don't forget "Luck of the Fryrish" (which was very endearing and sweet, but sad at teh same time) or the episode with the Harlem Globetrotters... the one where Fry writes "I LOVE YOU LEELA" in the stars, but she destroys it before she can read it...

Futurama, Family Guy just sucked when it came back. It doesn't even have a plot anymore, just random events strung together.

Elliot :) Yeah exactly the one. Just from the point where JD tells Mrs. Tanner he's scared... *sniffle*

:) So much heart. Truly fantastic show. Still, I'm going with Scrubs for... I don't know why.
