Futurama Rocks! Why did it end so soon?, September 26, 2004
This review is from: Futurama - Volumes 1-3 (DVD)
This review is for seasons 1-4 sets. Futurama is my second favorite cartoon. (The Simpsons being my first.) It is a halarious look into the future. Matt Groening and his team have done a great job on this series. Sadly, with only 4 seasons, it ended. And when i was watching it, I felt that season 3 really had futurama at its top prime. i even predicted a movie in the making. but that never happened. however, a video game was made. (which is very good if i may say so myself.) I love the way that all of the Futurama episodes end. Alot of the time, its the usual "Simpons-all-of-a-sudden-lets-end-it-now-before-anyone-gets-the-joke" ending. But what surprised me were other episodes had a very sweet, little tear ending. So, i end my review with this. You are going to love this entire series over and over again. Cherish them forever. I do!!!

54 Episodes, Not 43!!!, April 10, 2005
This review is from: Futurama - Volumes 1-3 (DVD)
This is not actually a review, although I highly recommend the set (or even better, the set of Volumes 1-4). But please note a correction to amazon's listing: the set contains all 54 episodes (13 + 19 + 22) from the first three seasons, not 43 as incorrectly stated by amazon.

Great TV, Canceled by Fools, February 22, 2005
This review is from: Futurama - Volumes 1-3 (DVD)
Futurama is everything that The Simpsons was at its peak and more. It takes a bit to get into the characters and as with the Simpsons character development was a bit spotty at first, but by the middle of the 2nd season they have really hit stride.
The 1,000 years in the future setting really lets the writers and animators cut lose with their ideas. A humanoid lobster that has many different larval stages of which we get to see them all in the matter of a few seconds, cross-dressing robots, the wonders never cease.
Any fan of The Simpsons would be well served to pick up the Futurama DVDs. Like the best Simpsons episodes, many of these Futurama episodes deserve repeated viewing.
