ALL SCI-FI

I didn't care for the artwork in the series (us artistic types get real snooty on that subject), or maybe it was just because I was never wild about the Simpsons.

I should give it another chance. I might go plum wild over it and binge watch the dang thing for a month! Very Happy

I have mentioned Futurama in a couple of other threads, but got absolutely no response.

It's by the SIMPSONS people, and there were a few crossover episodes of both shows. I love the tongue-in-cheek references to real science and physics subjects. The Futurama movies were pretty good, too, but I think the half-hour format works better.

And how can you possibly go wrong with Peg Bundy doing Leela's voice?

Well, that does it! I won't be able to eat lunch at the Cool Kids' table if I don't watch Futurama, so I'll get busy and start watching them today!

I just discovered that Netflix streams the series, so I should be done watching the entire series by next Friday — assuming I'm not interrupted.
