CMV: Futurama is much better than The Simpsons

Like many here I grew up with both shows and I always found Futurama to be the better of the two.

A wonderfully colourful world, great and varied characters. More mature humour and entertaining plotlines. The emotional episodes have hit me harder than any Simpson's moment, and that ending! Damn near perfect.

Even at it's worst I think it outperforms most of The Simpsons episodes. It often illustrates many of the problems we face as young adults; a lack of perceived meaning and direction in life as we continue to understand the world scientifically, and taking each day as it comes with friends and family. It's a real shame it was cancelled twice.

I'd love to hear your thoughts and points.

Better is very subjective but one very common way of judging something is by popularity (not saying its right or wrong).  The simpsons have had a longer run and much larger and varied fan base.  Personally, i enjoy futurama more but the simpsons have made way more money and have been enjoyed by many many more people around the world.  Plus i could argue the simpsons had a larger number of “classic” and hilarious episodes by sheer numbers alone.  Then theres always the arguement of being first at something.  Simpsons was doing clever gags way before futurama and futurama iwas only possible because of building off of the framework of the simpsons.
