8/10

This show is a Sci-fi Comedy Classic, The scripting is very deep with crazy plot-points every episode, the characters are static but with a very elonging element of development. It balances so much of both the genere, it mixes amazingly sci-fi with comedy.

The once hilarious Futurama is back but I wish it wasn't. Inconsistent writing, with stories not only unfunny but actually boring, such as season 11, episodes 9 and 10.

I've said it before but any series is only as good as the stories it has to tell. There's no hiding from that reality.

You've reached the end.
