No thank you. Futurama ended with Comedy Central for me. As far as I’m concerned it was a perfect ending for a rocky but charming show. I don’t engage with it outside of fan communities anymore.

Harsh but true. Something was missing after the initial run.



There once twice were several times that there was no new Futurama in development. I prefer Hulu to nothing.

Good news, everyone!


Have they gotten better? I only saw the first Hulu season, and it wasn’t bad bad but it felt like a good show’s worst hits album. The first episode in particular was basically a 20 minute Hulu ad.


I don’t really care anymore 🙈 I’m not even sure I watched the last season, it kinda lost it’s edge for me or something, it’s just boring now

Season 10 had some good episodes, I especially liked the last episode of the season. Episode 6 was also pretty good. The pig truffle one was kinda annoying though.



The Hulu version of Futurama is the worst version, for me.

It felt a lot like they turned it into another generic animated sitcom, and stripped it of the qualities that made the older iterants so rewatchable. I can still watch the old episodes with glee, I cannot even think to approach the Hulu ones in that way.

The Comedy Central seasons was the start of the downfall for the show to me.


Same. I haven’t made it through the third episode. I can’t even explain it but it’s not hitting.



Hooray for more Futurama

Boo for Hulu


Aww yiss. I’m excited just like I was last time I was hit with this news.
