I liked it, not going to lie. There were some fun jokes and some of the same "blink and you'll miss it" but it didn't feel like it had the same soul as futurama used to. I'm excited for the rest of the season to see if they can hold up
I didn't like it, myself. Leela encouraging Fry to do something so stupid was really out of character, and I didn't find the concept funny, either. I did love The Scary Mirror, though, as a fan of both The Twilight Zone and Black Mirror! Hoping I'll like the later episodes more.
What is even going on in the Simpson. I never really got into that show. As a kid I think I liked it because kids are supposed to like cartoons. But it was never my go to show.
I feel the same. I'm not here to yuck anyones yum, (I am glad folks are enjoying it) but the Futurama that came back from the dead wasn't the Futurama I fell in love with. Even though it stayed quite smart and nerdy... Perhaps later they leaned too hard into math nerd territory like with the body swap episode. Cool that they made an equation to make it work, but that's not "funny," just extremely nerdy.
Why do I remember so vividly that Futurama was airing new episodes much later than 2013? I know they had that crossover with the Simpsons, but I fucking swear the last episode aired much later than 2013. This meme gave me a new Mandela effect.
