So, ARDBZ vs TFS?

I don't think ARDBZ is on par with with TFS. The quality of their videos is greatly inferior and they quickly declined from their prime.

I think that their videos are very much funny because of knowledge of DBZ, whereas TFS are funny even to those with no idea of the franchise.

Deep Thought

I find TFS to be better than ARDBZ. TFS tends to be more consistently funny, whereas ARDBZ is usually unfunny random humor, although I will admit that when I find a joke funny, I tend to find it really funny, like almost literally "ROFL" quality. So it's kind of like Super Sayajin Grade 3 Trunks VS Perfect Cell, the jokes usually miss, but when they hit, they'll blow you away, or at least that's my experience.

Anyway, time to compare other aspects:

Graphics: TFS considerably. Maybe I'm just a graphic nerd, but I noticed that TFS uses Dragon Box footage while ARDBZ uses Funimation footage, and low quality ones at that.

BTW, here's the difference between the Dragon Box and the Funi Dub:





Thank you, Daizex! Anyway, there's definitely a big difference in quality. Also, TFS has better syncing skill and better editing.

Sound: This is my opinion, but I think that TFS has better VAs. Madness summed it up perfectly for me, the characters voices in TFS sound more like the characters in DBZ, where ARDBZ sounds nothing like them except for Vegeta, and they all sound the same to me. While ARDBZ sounds like an obvious fan-dub (which might not be a bad thing), TFS might sound better than Funi's dub. Not to mention that TFS tends to have other sounds, like wolves howling, splats, etc. while anything other than VAs in ARDBZ is few and far in between.

Parody "Plot": TFS wins again. ARDBZ has the common tendency to make characters shout random one liners that sometimes have no relation to what's going on at all. TFS has the tendency of consistently parodying the plot, whilst sparsely adding in a completely random scene.

Humor: TFS wins, for reasons I already explained.

Summary

Graphics: TFS.

Sound: TFS.

"Plot": TFS.

Humor: TFS.

TFS is, while not the funniest series I have ever saw, is certainly better than ARDBZ.

Yeah, I have to agree with you on the "random" humour part. TFS is indeed higher in quality than ARDBZ, but ARDBZ is probably the only parody that made me ROFLMAO occaisonally.

ARDBZ New Episode:



2:33 is an example of a ROFL moment whereas the rest is rather boring.

Also, 4:52. Lulz
