Is a way more heart breaking episode and ultimately better episode than the loving dog episode . Who gives a poo poo about a dog? Fry never knew his own nephew and we learned his brother wasn't a luck stealing prick but he missed his brother so much that he named his own son after his lost brother.

The dog episode was supposed to be about Fry discovering the mummified corpse of his mother. Imagine that episode, but mentally replace the dog with this lady:

How much sadder would that montage in front of Panucci's Pizza been if it was that woman waiting for her son?

Unfortunately they pussied out.

that makes no sense. His mother was awesome, and really didn't care that he didn't show up for the 2000.

According to the DVD commentary, the original idea for the episode was to have Fry's mother fossilized instead of Seymour, but this idea was scrapped after it was thought to be too upsetting to the audience.

But they've shown Fry's mother to be a not very loving person to fry, I don't know I guess it depends on how they did it. Maybe it could have been good.

Or maybe because it would have been upsetting to see a man finding his mother's corpse on display in a museum, then dragging that corpse through the streets of Manhattan
