What is it about Simpsons specifically that attracts such a large group of shitposters? Why does South Park or Family Guy not have as many edits?
What is it about Simpsons specifically that attracts such a large group of shitposters...
goddamn op you're stupid
OP, not judging but were you or were you not alive yet during Bartmania?
It's better.
You may not have been alive for it, but Simpsons was actually funny for a long time
Because simpsons did it first
Simpsons is just better, more memorable, iconic, etc...
Family Guy and South Park do have their moments though. The ??? Profit thing was well memed.
Because it was a global phenomenon that hundreds of millions of people can easily get the joke from, and the writing was really clever in ways that can be applied to a lot of scenarios. Also Family Guy does have a lot of shitposts, they're just much more in the vein of "I recognized the thing and clapped".
Cause it's easy to make funny recognized things funny. Family Guy doesn't have iconic jokes and South Park as much as it tries doesn't have anything to edit with. The funniest thing SP had was when some idiot tried making an analog horror of it.
Simpsons is shit now but its golden age (first 8 seasons, 9-10 if you wanna be generous) lasted a lot longer than most shows. Spongebob declined almost immediately after the first movie. Rick and Morty after season fucking 2,
infinite quotability

The Simpsons was genuinely revolutionary and got big enough to be referenced by the President, albeit derisively.
Family Guy not have as many edits?
It's a tradition to put peter griffin as X anime character

Now you've got me curious.
Because Simpsons during the 90's was one of the biggest things in the world. South Park was also big sure but its peak wasnt as long or as big as Simpsons were.
Also if you watch seasons 1-9, you can see why. Seasons 3-6 in particular might be the best televised animated show to ever have existed.

I feel bad for zoomers, when they were born, Simpsons was considered a bad show.
dont have cowman
Simpsons has been bad for so long people who where born when it started to suck are old enough to drink
It’s Mexicans
The Simpsons is observational without getting too crazy. It hits a wide range of subjects while being unique and somewhat grounded. South Park does more grand spacticals and it's too spasific to be as wildly shit posted as the Simpsons. With Family Guy's format of cut away gags each episode is basically already has shitposts baked right into the show itself.
Why would the Sailor Scouts ruin the family vacation?
Remember when "shitpost" just meant a low quality post? When did it become a synonym for joke? People call images shitposts, video games shitposts, movies shitposts. Who the fuck is responsible for this?
It happened around 2014 or so. I remember finding it really fucking jarring seeing regular videos get called "shitposts" around then. Before that point it always just meant a low quality post, "Ironic shitposting is still shitposting" and all that.
Simpsons was good
Not Ami.
I mean it's more about the trouble they'd invariably attract, then Tuxedo Mask shows up and makes Homer look bad.
Give me talent any day
Es el doblaje latino de los Simpsons
Well put. Compared to contemporaries, Simpsons hits that sweet spot of being outlandish yet still grounded enough to leave shitposters feeling there is still room to defile the source material.
Yeah, but the word has lost all meaning at this point even compared to then. Back then at least, a shitpost met the minimum requirement that it shits up discussion or is generally unproductive garbage within the thread its posted.
Now it's almost always contained to "the shitpost board" or "the shitpost chat."
Because the Simpsons was never good so faggots make up for it by posting forced memes memes. "I just think they're neat"? "What a time to be alive"? Those aren't funny. They're not even insultingly unfunny like harassing Squidward.
Homer looks so cute with his green jacket on, wish that was a more common occurrence
Because prime Simpsons is on a level that South Park and Family Guy have only brushed the low levels of at their best.
The infinite quotability comes from the fact that unlike the other two, they were trying to write jokes without relying on shock value.
Also Chibi-Usa best girl.
Still mad record studios pretty much killed Arc covers. Who the fuck over there was literally retarded enough to think they lose money because someone supposedly opts to listen to a computer cat howling instead of their version?
Simpsons humor is largely derived from its characters acting funny. Family guy and South Park are more about the situations the characters are in rather than the characters bouncing of each other.
Family Guy does have a shitpostng culture though
millennials dominate internet culture and millennials primarily watched Simpsons. Zoomers prefer Family Guy and you can see as they gain more market share online more and more FG-related content is coming to the fore.
Chibiusa and Hotaru are my girls.
Family guy is memed just as much, if not more
Simpsons have been around since 1987. That’s why.
people living in sanitized internet spaces where real shitposts get deleted on sight who nonetheless like the imagery the phrase invokes and adopted it for themselves
You're not keeping up if you haven't seen shit like Peter answering the door and Schizothread edits.
