i've only seen the first three new ones. i thought the first two were ok, nothing gut-busting. the third one was...kind of bad. it was essentially just IPODS TWITTER IPHONES THESE THINGS ARE FUNNY

are the others also not funny? :(

Really it's just the resurrected zombie corpse of the show. Best to ignore it for now.

futurama had to actually be good the first time around for it to go the way of the simpsons.

you obviously compared it to the simpsons, big mistake. i know its kinda impossible not to but once i realised it was NOTHING like the simpsons i got on much better with it

i never thought of it as a simpsons part 2.

to me it is just not that funny of a show. there's some decent stuff in there but the simpsons at one point were really good, today its kinda eh. futurama was never really good, so if it was only mediocre how is it that it going downhill that big of a deal?

Been really, really disappointed. I mean, I didn't have my hopes up for them too high, but really guys? Susan Boyle jokes? Really?

For me, simpsons became bad in the early naughties but came back after a season or two after the movie. New futurama has not been the best but it may find its feet again (hopes). I am loving IT crowd again to.

I.T. Crowd, hellz YES....!! Only getting episodes via Netflix but it's nice to know they're back!!! (Working in I.T. makes this show especially funny)


Futurama, it's the one show that I watch weekly, and I'm glad as hell it's back. Gives us Simpsons fans with a nerdy side something to look forward to every week.. BENDER!!!!!
