Futurama is an awesome show, I really enjoy it. 2008 shall be good. |
I guess the Simpsons are a living, breathing example of what happens to a show that's been running for far too long.
You'd think those DVD's are enough. |
Won't there be a simpsons movie? If there will be, it's about time.
Off the topic of futurama a little: South Park is my favorite cartoon show. Futurama is prolly #2 for me. But I hate Family Guy, it's not even funny at all, and American Dad is even worse. It seems to almost have the same writing as Family Guy, except the characters have different names. |
I enjoyed watching Futurame while it aired, I didn't follow it fanatically, but it was rather funny. Bender's definitely the best character.

As for the topic: Futurama was a cool show. Excellent how they managed to catch the stupidity of the human race, all combined into the character that is Fry. |
Futurama is bloody brilliant!
my fave character is Dr.zoidberg then bender then fry they are all very funny! family guy is quite adult for me but lots of it is really funny Simpson have gone down hill after 2000 but they are still good and i like drawn together B-) |

Futurama - my favorite comedy cartoon next to Family Guy.
My favorite character is Bender. He's a nutcase. I know people who hate Futurama, but I don't know why. I bought all the episodes on DVD, and had one night where I'd a whole season. |

Man, I WHOLE night of Futurama? :rolleyes: :p
Use the EDIT function if you feel the need to add something more, how many more times!? |

What do you all think of the upcoming Simpsons film? |
I think I'm going to reserve judgement until I see it. However, the trailer with the CGI rabbit is genius.

I love Futurama, and I think a reason some people don't like it is because they don't get it. Otherwise they hate it because they have a different taste in humor.
I personaly love it so much, as well as my girlfriend. We watch it all the time, and we think it's really funny, though sometimes one of us has to explain the joke to one another but I love it. She has all the seasons of it on DVD except season 1. I am excited about the new season, though I hope it hasn't lost it's humor. My favorite character? Recently it has been Mr. Zoidberg (or however you spell it...) I love the episode where it's like the wizard of Oz, and they all are magicaly teleported to the witch's castle and everyone except Mr. Zoidberg says "Hey why were he brought to your castle?" and Mr. Zoidberg says "And why did I have to take a cab?!" Hahaha...I guesss you have to watch it to get the humor. |
See, I'd like it if it wasn't so hacky. All the humor in that show seems a bit old and repetitive. It just seems to me like a poor attempt at creating a second Simpsons.

Its funny but not even nearly half as good as The Simpsons.
|
Futurama is great I like Bender.
|
I may have mentioned this in another thread but I met a kid recently who told me that he thought The Simpson's was crap and always had been. I realised that he was so young (13ish) that he hadn't even born when it was at its peak.
I felt old. |

I feel ancient. I think I might cry in a minute, I want to be young again - ah, the seventies, the days where I'd get home from work, sit down on the sofa, crack open a drink and watch Starsky and Hutch. I was only young, mind you, but sometimes, my dad would let me drink some of his beer. In fact, I speak for my dad with the bit 'get home from work'. Oh, I also remember Miami Vice. Life is now the opposite of peace and quiet. |
Futurama is greatness. I have every series on DVD, bought the complete set for a bargain at something like £60. I'm looking forward to it returning, and IMO it is far funnier than The Simpsons. It uses more subtle, witty humour rather than the straightforward comedy of The Simpsons. I like both shows, but prefer Futurama. Family Guy is good too, probably tied with Futurama for me. Dr Zoidberg is the best character of the lot, followed narrowly by The Professor.
|
I have every episode of every series of Futurama on DVD and generally I find I prefer it to the Simpsons.

Futurama's a decent show. But it should of at least reached 5 seasons in my opinion.
It is generally a really, really clever show. And usually it's extremely funny. But as someone stated earlier, it might just try a bit too hard sometimes.. In my humble opinion, the only funny characters are Farnsworth, Zoidberg, and possibly Fry and Leela's interactions. Until about a year ago, I thought this show was just a mediocre Matt Groening offering, but then I saw the Season 4 episode, "Jurassic Bark". Watch it, it's too hard to explain. Absolutely beautiful animation, and a great all-star cast. I'll finish by saying: Not the best show, but when it's on, I'll probably watch it. |

oh, and sorry if I made a mistake, but from what I'm read, I assumed your post wasn't to alert people not to use capitals. On toppic, I like it, although I think mat groenning or whoever should stick with the simpsons. I only watch it when it's on, and I'm not doing anything else better. I like dr. zoidberg, he would normally piss me off, but I don't take him seriously, being a giant talking alien cartoon lobster and all. Bender's ok too, and lila, or whatever her name is, the rest of the characters are normal and boring, I'd be glad if they replaced them with aliens, fry and the proffecer are ok, only because they are the main character and I like crazy proffecers. The series goes far too slowly though, and it's obvious that lelia is going to meet her *spoilers ahead if you honsetly care* mutant parents, fry and lelia will be together, that alien green guy will rebel and go with that asian chick, etc. I think the show would be much better with just Fry, Lelia and Bender, the others just get in the way, maybe zoidberg and the proffecer could appear as a guest or something, but other than that, it's just made it complicatedbly boring. It's watchable. which beats alot of thiungs of TV these days however. |
I made that post 9 months ago. Jesus christ.

Another thing that I forgot to mention about Futurama, is that it's very timeless. I was watching an episode on TV the other day and the animation...the jokes...it just seemed like it was made just last year, when it was actually made over 5 years ago.
The Simpsons have shown that they can do this too, but not as well as Futurama. In humour, The Simpsons wins. In animation and style, Futurama. Easily. I need not explain why, just watch the show. Another unique aspect of Futurama is that it's never really....sucked. Per se.. I mean, it was never the best show, but there was also never a time where I would just stop watching it was so bad (this has happened numerous times with The Simpsons). :
