I personally tend to think the FG is more inclined to childish humour as it is more pain and insult based. While I do agree the FG is good, however, I do think it's a bit overated. This may be because there hasn't been a really funny cartoon while the Simpsons have been on air (ie. a very long time).
Fg humour is IMO more abrupt, quick and obvious. There's hardly any jokes you don't get the first time. The Simpson's, OTOH, have more varied and clever humour (I must first say that i'm talking about the golden years, not the last 4-5 years). Some jokes I would get perhaps after seeing the very same show a hundred times. This often happens after seeing a movie that is being made fun of (try to name one at least semi popular movie that the Simpson's did not poke fun at). Simply put, The Simpson's at its best is the funniest/best sitcom or show of all time.
One reason i think many people like Family Guy more now is because, like I've already mentioned, almost everyone has seen some Simpson's episodes perhaps hundreds of times. At the same time, it is also a testamant to the longevity and repeat viewings ability of the Simpsons.
