Futurama

Sweet action for kids 'n' cretins. Marjoram and capers.

Cancelled once again:

Adult Swim needs to pony up the money to just buy the damn show and give it the home it deserves. Or Netflix if this AD thing winds up working out.

I'm gutted.

Honestly, I haven't seen anything past the first run of revival episodes. It's sad that it's going away, but the revival didn't inspire a ton of loyalty in me.

Luckily, we still have like another decade of the Simpsons to look forward to!

Damn. It was no longer an exceptional show, but it wasn't embarrassing itself either. Maybe a blessing to quit before that happens, but still …

I kinda agree with that. Don't turn into the Simpsons. And we get 13 more.

Come on, the Satanic resurrection of Calculon? This season had been very good.

Good, but not very good. It's all been solid work but nothing really stood out for me.

Good episode last night. Futurama still does the sentimentality and loss episodes quite well. Plus there was lots of Nixon content.

Very nice ending. Sweet plus some scifi geekery. A very good way to go out.
