I would just like to say this thread has become progressively less awesome with a distinct lack of quoting.

As a lover of Futurama (and all things Groening) and a detester of Family Guy (and all things McFarlane), I had no problem at all with the new episodes. I've skimmed through the thread, I've seen a lot of "blah blah non sequitur" "blah blah lazy jokes". I despise Family Guy, I truly do, but it's not like they have a Monopoly on non sequitur jokes. The Simpsons had been doing them before Family Guy was a glint in McFarlanes underimaginative eye. It's just that Family Guy abused the practice to the extent it became associated only with them.

The episodes were fine, I felt they fit into the format of the show and to the characters personalities in a way that wasn't unrealistic for the series. They weren't my favorite episodes, they weren't even my favorite new episodes. But I enjoyed them, and you should've too!

Also.

Nothing is impossible, not as long as you believe in it! That's what being a scientist is all about!

The only bit on Futurama that's been so dated it really bothered me was the Pat Buchanan joke in Future Stock.
The "Obamacare" line from the most recent episode is probably not going to age very well either. But everyones praising the glory of that episode!

No I'm pretty sure I posted one page ago about how the most recent episode was poorly written.
I actually quite liked the episode, and I suppose I didn't mean *everyone*, but a lot of people have been praising it. I dunno, if "topical" is the only reason to dislike an episode then, I guess I'm a bad fan. I didn't hate the eyePhone episode, I didn't hate So I Dated a Robot, or A Flight To Remember.

There are plenty of episodes I like less than others (which I will decline to mention because I know at least one of them is very popular), but it's never due to "oh that joke won't age well."

I mean have you guys never watched South Park? If it weren't for topical humor that show would've been off the air 5 years ago. And most people still accept it for what it is and maintain it's only gotten BETTER with age.

The point is, shows add in Topical Humor all the time. Even topical non-humor, serious shows referencing real world events, people, what have you. I just don't get why it's some huge deal if it doesn't hold up 10 years from now.

That's my point though. It's an episode where "what if a character were a ghost". I don't care if he's technically not, it's still not a creative episode.

vv Those episodes are bad and you should feel bad (though not the one where they go through alternate universes).
As a robot living among humans, I've never felt accepted at parties or nude beaches. So I've always wondered...

What if I were 500 feet tall?!

Just when I think I have you SA Futurama fans figured out. I didn't watch last night but just caught it now, and assumed I'd come back to "man they did a spoof, HOW BORING AND DROLL."

Good on you! I adored that episode. The Man-Woman Chief is going to be my new favorite character.

Thought it was pretty good. Was funnier than last week's, but I'm not sure which I liked better.

Mine does that all the time. I actually now have it set to record 3 minutes extra past the normal end time. Futurama never airs at the right times. Never.

Does your on-screen guide say that it runs from 10:00-10:30? Because mine usually says something like 10:00-10:32 or something like that, and thus my DVR never misses it. If your provider isn't doing that, then they're loving you over.

Sometimes it lists it as going one minute longer. But it's not a huge deal, my DVR lets me add time before and after a scheduled recording. So I just added an extra three minutes, should be fine.

This is probably as good a place as any to ask, but what is the deal with Matt Groenings signature always appearing on official Simpsons and Futurama images?
He drew the original characters, they're still his creation. Sure other people draw them for the shows now, but they're characters *he* created. He very well might have the likeness copyrighted, and as stated, he's had deals with Fox for as long as the Simpsons has been there that it will always remain *his*.
