    It was entertaining - the whole "we cant compete with that many storm clouds" moment was very much lol

    Song was great but the rest seemed hardly funny. They could have done so much more with that episode.

    Enjoyed yesterday's episode and last weeks as well. I'm happy to see that they are still as good as the old ones. I was so stoked when I found out about the new season!

    Futurama has a weird season listing. It was produced as 4 seasons (+1 for films) but broadcast as 5 seasons (+1 for the films). The films were shown in pieces as a full season at one time and were named season 6, but now they got changed to Season 0 to keep proper numbering of normal episodes.
    Wikipedia:Broadcast order Production order.

    The new season picks up right where the last film ended.

    the movies weren't terrible, and actually, i thought Bender's Big Score and Bender's Game were pretty good.

    According to the US, there are five seasons.

    In the same way we have more "seasons" of Family Guy than the US does.

    So, according to US programme commissioners, it is season six.

    the straight to TV movies weren't classed as seasons, nor episodes. Technically, they were "gap bridging episodes" to test the waters for a full seasons commissioning.

    in all fairness there watchable but when you watch the old episodes then move on to the films there pretty toned down. The jokes are stale and not as whitty.

    Never the less when I get some time off work I'll scope out this season 6.

    It was easily the best episode since they got back on the air. Futurama is not a laugh out loud comedy and it has never been. It's much, much more than that and the last episode was a proof of it.

    It was perfect in my opinion and easily gets in my top 10 (out of 79 episodes)
