this track owns and has some sample licensing issue that means it doesn't get included in the official soundtrack

i suspect the reviewers disliking disenchantment part 3 just liked part 2 more than i did. again a bunch of story beats that go nowhere, but, idk, it was pretty fun.

imo the biggest weakness is that they were trying to create season-long narratives instead of 1-off episodic stories like Futurama and Simpsons.

infernal machines: Oct 11, 2012; we monitor many frequencies. we listen always. came a voice, out of the babel of tongues, speaking to us. it played us a mighty dub.

they did of one-off episodic stories too, some tied into the longer narrative, sorta-kinda. they just weren't very funny.

at least once per episode there's something that was ostensibly a joke, but was actively unfunny.

i certainly won't argue that too much, but i largely enjoyed it. if anything think they did a better job of making loose episodes vaguely guided by a story this season. they need to stop doing the futurama thing where they have a bunch of secret plot points that they refuse to have play out before cancellation though, all the major story moments just pass by without resolving or clarifying anything.

At least since it's not set in the near future they probably won't end up having to replace all the product placements because it's been delayed for so long like the bond movie.

when i was in design school we had one critique where a student had designed a toilet for automatically taking stool samples. i forget if his target market was hospitals or if he imagined that people would buy this themselves (germans, perhaps) but in any case it had a little scoop arm thing that would come out from the wall of the toilet into the line of fire, so to speak, and do all the stuff it needed to do.

throughout the presentation one of the professors was visibly upset and got more and more antsy the whole time. at the end his hand shot up but he didn't get called on first. after three or four relatively benign questions, the student acknowledged this professor.

"yeah, thank you. i just have one question."
*pause*
"i'm a sixty-year-old man. WHERE ARE MY BALLS?"

and of course this was the first time that this bunch of 18-to-23-year-old young men and women had considered that a sixty-year-old man might have balls that hang down far enough into the toilet that this scooping device would be poking them around. and that, indeed, this sixty-year-old professor who they were stuck taking classes from definitively had such a set of balls himself
