Hell Is Other Robots

Since the (latest, 2023) Futurama revival is a bust, I thought I'd spend the time rewatching the best episodes of its long run. I'd forgotten how rough the first season was, in both art and storylines but this is the episode where it really started to click.

The Futuramaverse expanded a lot with the entertaining notion that in the future, only robots have religion (well among these characters anyway). Preacherbot and the Robot Devil are great additions to the series and the Robot Devil's song was clever and catchy.

After this, I'm going on to season 2, where I'm sure there will be a much higher proportion of great episodes. Seasons 2-5 were solid.

It was a really enjoyable first season for a show overall. I was a little difficult to make up my mind on my feeling towards the very first episode as it was a little uneven. You could mostly tell what the writers was trying to do but they were clearly still trying to figure things out and they weren't able to execute it all very well. I thought the episodes would get better and better as the season went along and they really found their stride. I'm already loving the show more than the Simpsons (especially newer seasons) and I really hope it doesn't fall into the same decent of quality in the upcoming seasons.

Season 1 has been consistant in quality, I admire that, 7 episodes 8/10 and one 7/10 , the stories were all good and clever. But Unfortunately lacking Greatest lacking real laugh. When you watch Futurama you are going to smile, but you're very rarely going to laugh, thats why I cant put a 9/10 to any episode yet.

I hope season 2 will be better, but Season 1 has been solid enough for me to continue the show.
