Mixed feelings. the most recent revival wasn't awesome but it was still decent. I'd be up for more but not having John Dimaggio (as of yet) is a big no go if he can't be involved, imho.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑09 Feb 2022, 8:40pmMore Futurama?

Yeah, I'm not super enthused about this. I'll watch (duh) but not exactly having heart palpitations.Flex wrote: ↑09 Feb 2022, 9:40pmMixed feelings. the most recent revival wasn't awesome but it was still decent.

They're not going to do it with out DiMaggio, this is the same thing they do with all the Simpsons actors when contracts come up. They're going to pay him.

Crossing my fingers and hoping those vaccine and cancellation episodes arent disasters.

Re: Futurama
That was my immediate thought. Topical can be great in the moment but most likely rots on the vine within a couple years.
(An aside: I watched a few old episodes of Arrested Development a week or two ago, and the fact that it's so tied to W. and Iraq has not done the comedy any favours.)

Re: Futurama
One of the major downfalls of The Return was topical episodes. Of course the other main downfall was cutting the writing budget to pad the animation budget, which it looks like they'll probably be doing here as well. They should focus on boosting the writing budget for Disenchantment and leave this alone.

Re: Futurama
Thoughts on the return? For me, three episodes in, it's been solid. Nothing spectacular, but nothing embarrassing.

Re: Futurama
I liked the first two, but I thought the bitcoin one was a little weak. Like the last time they returned, I think I'll wind up liking the season more with repeated viewings.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑14 Aug 2023, 12:03pmThoughts on the return?
