Now that its coming back Im extremely happy. Does anyone else here like this show?

I like Futurama with all of my ability to like something!
I was overjoyed to see the epsiode with Beck last night.
Yay!

It's not bad most of the time. little slow... but still funny.

[Delirious]

Never noticed it being slow, but yes its funny as hell. The jokes make me lol. when the professor went skiing and hermes said "look at the professor go!" and he did all those tricks and it zoomed in on his face and he was asleep. lmmfao, then later on he skied right into the lodge and he had a medal and a number from a ski competition on and he woke up and was like wha? funniest shit ever.

[Jesus]

Yes the Beckisode was on last night.

[goku2057]

No. I hate Futurama.

[masteratt]

The Simpsons and Futurama= Comedy.

Family Guy = Fuck you you boring pieces of shits. Man I hate this show SO much.

But anyway, lovely to see Futurama back! Although some jokes are a bit "wtf?" kinda lame.

Yeah that bit with the dog in the snow was really good. I remember watching tat and actually thinking, this is meant to be sad.

[Delirious]

lol funny thing, Im watching it right now and happen to see this thread in the at the top of the new posts. Its the episode where bender becomes santa.

futurama also has some very touching moments, mostly dealing with fry and leela but there's others like fry's dog waiting for him until it dies. it's a tough balance between tragedy and comedy and i think it's nice that for once something tried to walk the line.

plus, leela doesn't deserve fry.
Whilst reading reader reviews for Eraserhead on Amazon, I recall something about Charlie Chaplin on this subject.
The original quote was this,
"Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot."
Which probably lead to what I read being this,
"Charlie Chaplin once observed that if you exaggerate any human hardship enough it becomes funny."

That being true, I imagine it works in reverse too.
In that if you understate comedy enough, it becomes tragedy.
Well maybe.

I can't remember why I wanted to say this all those hours ago.
Oh well.


And no, she doesn't.
But I hope for change.

I love how there is a large story above the singular eps .

I was really hoping to see where it was going with Nibbler helping fry out trying to get leela and his desitany
