the first episode... could have been worse

it wasn't as bad as the apple and susan boil episodes, but it wasn't as good as the classic seasons

so all in all it was much better than i expected it to be

perhaps it will be a decent season

Definitely some good gags; still feels like Futurama to me. Looking forward to more of the season

Comparing new Futurama episodes to the Susan Boil episode is unfair, since that is one of the worst TV episodes in general of all time

How many times is this? Like the fourth time they have been uncancelled? Is Groening stuff ever allowed to just end for good?

How many times does Bender say the thing about his butt? Has anyone ever taken him up on the offer?

Is From any good? On a scale of 1 to 5 💀 how scary/gory is it? The answer determines whether my wife watches it with me or I watch it alone in the basement.

Fun fact: If you’ve rewatched all the classic Futurama episodes to death like I have, the DVD commentaries are some of the best out there and add even more rewatchability.

She could of have been so much more but the writers just didn't care!

Do not bother watching it. The show has no loving idea what the hell it wants to be.

Disenchantment spent multiple seasons worldbuilding at a frenetic pace while running multiple concurrent plot threads - with the occasional joke - and none of it ever really paid off.

Futurama built an entire world in 2-3 episodes and every second of it was crammed full of jokes.

Same. I only watch the News every night, or factual documentaries. Every day I open the news paper and sit down at the kitchen table and go 'Hmm. Yes. Quite.'

This confused me enough to Google if it somehow ended when I wasn't looking and no, it didn't. It's still going. So whether or not it fully pays off is still up-in-the-air.

Disenchantment is the kind of show where they'll spend a few episodes making fun of the guy who got disabled with a hammer to the head, so that when he dies he's incredibly angry at God for being so unfair and shits on him in the afterlife.

Imho Family Guy did that joke MUCH better, with Peter going "if [extremely long list of Fox shows that were canceled while the show was off] are canceled, then maybe we'll have a shot", and maybe I'm giving Family Guy too much credit but tbh I don't know if a joke about a show being canceled & resurrected can be done funnier and/or more cleverly than that, especially if the show has been canceled & resurrected multiple times
