The official discussion of Futurama thread

Yeah, his was the main focus of the movies, but he was also the side plot of the first of the two new episodes and saved the day that one. Also, the second one wasn't supposed to be about him it was a Leela and Zapp Branigan episode.

It says "it's a worthy first episode", and they payed to get early access to it. So basically, its crap.

Duuuuuuuuude, you're totally right dude! That makes perfect sense! It's not what they wrote, it's what they DIDN'T WRITE! DUDE!

Dude.

jkr what the hell is wrong with you?

I just saw the new episode, it's not as bad as some of you are making it to be. Sure it wasn't as good as most Futurama, but still better than most TV.

The latest episode (with Bender and Amy) was so random... man... Had some HILARIOUS moments, but the plot was as thin as a Fred episode!

Didn't make much sense at all. Oh well, still a good watch. I loved the Professor in it. They've done a great job with his character, even if no one else is quite as good as the old days.

"This cattle prod should help!"
"How would that h-"
*ZAP*
"Get out there!"

Wow, that episode didn't suck at all!

HOPES=RESTORED!

I do very much like the new episode, but *SPOILER* why didn't Hermes say anything when Bender did not have a backup?

What do you mean?
*SPOILER*
You mean at the factory? If he said anything, Bender would have just been thrown out and destroyed. Funny how life works, eh?

Wait, that was why? Errgh. I should've realized that.

Best one so far. Kinda sad though.

I know!
This one was completely on form, start to finish.
I hope they keep this up!

Best episode since the return of the show! That ending was just perfect. It's the characters I show up for every week, and this episode showed off why beautifully.

That was SO AMAZING.
I loved the Hitler joke

I really love it/ hate it when movies make me think. And yes I loved the Hitler joke too.

EDIT: A site reviewing this episode made me realize something.

"I don’t want to spend too much time on paradoxes, because they make my head hurt, but given that the dudes travel through the end of the Universe twice before settling on Universe 3, there’s at least one forwards time machine with a Bender, Fry, and the Professor somewhere out there. Though they probably over-shot, too, and are in Universe 4 killing their doubles there. I guess? Ow."

That's why I am a dog person.

And why couldn't they just flip the lever or snip the wire?

Man, Futurama DOES have the smartest writers on television.

NEW EPISODE TOMORROW?!

SIX MORE DAYS GUYS UNTIL THE MID-SEASON PREMIERE!

And from what I saw from the commercial for it, everyone on the crew gets their gender changed. :P

I set the ol' DVR to record it. Can't wait!

This time I'm not buying it on iTunes. No bonus features, same price as the DVDs. BOOOOOO.

I might make it to watch Futurama tonight, but I might not. I'm scared.

The first two episodes back weren't my favorite, but they were okay. Some amusing parts, but nothing that I wanted to watch 10 times (like The Late Phillip J. Fry). Hopes for a better show tonight!

I dunno, it seems kinda silly.
I mean, Bender, as a ghost?
Jeez, everyone knows the last ghost died over 200 years ago!
