I watch a few random episodes, but it's never really appealed to me. I did find the episode with the Space Invaders ("Quick! Play my Rush mix-tape!") fucking hilarious though.

I own all 4 volumes of Futurama. It's easily my favorite show that WAS on television (followed by Harvey Birdman and Clone High). You can bet I'll get vol.5 on DVD too ;)

isnt this a rip off of Family guy and The Simpsons...only set in the future?

Family Guy rips off everything, and isn't too funny once you can get over it's useless/dumb non-sequitars.


Futurama is more like the Simpsons. More mature, where you have to be "sophisticated" to appreciate it, and understand inside jokes/references to pop. cult.

1) Fuck Family Guy! They started about the same time.
2) Made by the same person as the Simpson.
3) Futurama >>>>>> The Simpsons and Family Guy combined.

well, i wouldnt exactly say that futurama owns the other 2 shows, the simpsons are a legend, they started it all, family guys is just different, it's like a homer centered story but on steroids, well, more or less like asteroids @)@

now futurama is kinda different, similar to the simpsons, jokes a somewhat similar to family guy in the random sense, i would choose family guy over the other 2 any given day though =P

bit - October 20, 2006 03:40 AM (GMT)
I would too, but meh. New episodes are teh sux.

Nah.....Futurama doesn't own the other two, but it is my favorite out of three, by far. And I always love the watch the simpsons when I can. I could live without family guy if I needed.....

Has anyone noticed how both Lois AND marge have a gambling addiction????or was it just me?

There's some YTMND that shows how Family Guy rips off Simpsons so much. I think that was one of them.

retrohelix - October 20, 2006 02:08 PM (GMT)
well, the problem is that the simpsons did almost everything already, it's the oldest show and any similarity between any jokes and the simpsons will become a rip off, and not from family guy only, any show, i personally like family guy cause the jokes are funny, even when sometimes they go to the point of retardation D:

SolarKhan - October 20, 2006 03:11 PM (GMT)
family guy ftw!!!

Fuck Family Guy.


South Park had an episode once about how The Simpsons did everything already.

bit - October 21, 2006 01:47 AM (GMT)
And they had that Family Guy bashing episode which was equally pwn.

retrohelix - October 21, 2006 02:21 AM (GMT)
actually i saw that episode where they made fun of family guy, i didn't find it funny at all, south park is rarely ever funny nowdays : /

South Park is losing it's luster. So is The Simpsons for that matter. Family Guy is doing ok now, but i personally like the elder seasons better.
