Kinda old piece of news but a sad one indeed.
I think Futurama was way better than the Simpsons, at least when they were showing both series here. But maybe it's just good that Futurama ended before becoming boring. Now it's always remembered as pure greatness in animation scene.
Yeah I know it's been a few years but they've been playing it every night on Teletoon and I just forked over 50$ for the 3rd boxset of DVDs.
I love that the finale was left open-ended as well... Billy West (voice of Fry/Zoidberg/Farnsworth/Zapp) has said that they're in talks to do some direct-to-DVD movies... I so hope that's true.
My alltime favorite episodes... hmmm...
Hell is Other Robots: MUSICAL! MUSICAL! The Robot Devil was one of the greatest reoccuring characters ever.
A Flight to Remember: The Titanic episode. Oh man one of my favorite S2 episodes.
Anthology of Interest 1: Impulsive Leela, Al Gore, and giant Bender. Classic.
Love & Rocket: Where Bender dates the Planet Express ship. "This concept of "wuv" both confuses and infuriates us!" LMAO I <3 Lrrr.
The Sting: Once I finally figured out what the fuck was going on... AWWWW.
But seriously I think there were only about 3 episodes I didn't absolutely love. And even those episodes had those jokes that just crack you up and don't make the episode a total waste of time. And the voice actors are so freaking talented it's INSANE.
