    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Finished the season. Without trying to spoil much, the first episodes are for the most part weak and feel a little bit exposition heavy, but once episode four starts rolling, the comedy gets better and the Groening heart and humanity that shone so brightly during the Simpsons prime and even more so in Futurama began to show up more and more until the last three episodes which are excellent and one of them has a very bittersweet and sad moment that wouldn't feel out of place next to some of the sadder moments fromThe Simpsons and Futurama.

    Overall, while inconsistent, this show does have a very rich world, some really good characters (specially Luci) and after the last three episodes, it has potential to be great.

    I watched the first three episodes and thought it was pretty lame. I don't know if it's Groening's brand of comedy that's getting old but I grinned twice at best.

    Those are the worst episodes for what is worth. The comedy does remain a bit hit and miss after that, but the character work, as per Groening shows, remains generally strong and the final three episodes are excellent.
