Futurama starts up again in June!

[CaptainWacky]

So this week's was okay.

But he used the paradox correcting timecode form Bender's ass so he shouldn't have disappeared like that.

 

[CaptainWacky]

This week's was pretty funny, I THOUGHT.

I liked Calculon's Shakespeare bit. And he actually died for real! But the ending with the monster didn't really live up to that scene (they unironically did the "like pumping too much air into a ballooon!" ending.)

I LIKED THE FUNNY LINE I CAN'T REMEMBER.

 

[CaptainWacky]

This week's new episode of Futurama was certainly a new episode of Futurama.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I quite liked this week's episode and the exploration of the Hermes/Zoidberg relationship.

PERHAPS YOU WERE ALL WRONG TO WRITE OFF FUTURAMA SO QUICKLY.

 

[Loktar]

I never wrote it off.I like the "bad" episodes as well as the good.

Next weeks looks "good" too. How will they put Fry back together after he is ground into sausage?

 

[CaptainWacky]

THANKS FOR THE SPOILER.

(I don't care really!)

 

[Loktar]

THANKS FOR THE SPOILER.

(I don't care really!)

It wasn't really a spoiler anyway. They show Fry ground up as sausage in the TV promos/commercials for the episode.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I quite liked this week's as it went back to the Fry/Leela relationship and was quite touching.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I liked this week's again. It never really lived up to the potential of the question posed about robot free will, but it was funny and lots of things happened.

 

[CaptainWacky]

THIS WEEK'S WAS GOOD and the emotional ending actually worked and made me feel slightly emotional. And yes I'm going to bump this thread every week NO MATTER WHAT.

 

[CaptainWacky]

So it turns out the "season" is over for another year so see you "all" in a year when I bump this threade with "hey, remember that animal episode last year? That was weird."

 

[The Tomtrek]

That was weird!

 

[CaptainWacky]

I did laugh at dead Kiff.

 

[CaptainWacky]

CANCELLED. Again.

13 episodes more then it's over. It hasn't been as good since the revival but it's still better than The Simpsons which gets to run for a HUNDRED YEARS and The Cleveland Show which...was actually cancelled too.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

Well...fuck.

 

[whisky]

As someone who likes Cleveland and Futurama, this is not a good day.

Why can't Groening just pay for the episodes himself? Its not like the Simpsons hasn't made a shitload of money, plus even that is supposed to be finishing soon, so he is going to need another cash cow.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

Exactly -- he's probably LUCA$H rich at this point. He could do the show for Netflix if he wanted. (like Arrested Development)


(But I won't miss the Cleveland Show at all)

 

[CaptainWacky]

Why doesn't George Lucas start his own tv network that only shows Futurama and Clones Wars? I ASK YOU.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I watched the two new episodes.

Professor racing episode: Fucking awful.

Monkey episode: Passable.

 

[Loktar]

Yeah, the first one was sort of awful. Leela would never be that concerned with safety and want to drive a box shaped spaceship. Noone was concerned? They just let the the Professor wander off? Yeah riiight. The Tokyo Drift references/parody was alright.

Second one was the better of the two.
