Rewatched it this past week. God, this show is tailor-made made for multiple viewings. This might be a top 5 anime for me now. Love it to pieces.

This season of Futurama was, overall, very reminiscing of the CC seasons: quite a mixed bag. It has two very good episodes in the very funny X-Mas special and it's dense, mind-bending "All the Way Down"; a bottom tier one in the Covid episode and the rest being solid, but mostly unspectacular. Was it worth reviving? I dunno, I'd like to see how the following season winds up and even if it's bad, we're playing with house money. No matter what happens, Futurama will remain one of my most treasured shows ever and I'm always willing to keep going with the Planet Express crew.

Damn they even did Scooby-Doo dirty. Is nothing sacred anymore?

[MadMan]

I had to axe Hulu due partly for budget reasons but also because I wasn't using the service enough to justify keeping it. So I haven't gotten to see any of the new Futurama.

I've seen 7, guess I'm a bigger fan of Castle In The Sky than you are, and you prefer Nausica, of the Valley of the Wind and Kiki's Delivery Service more than I do. I like those films, though.
