Spoilers Futurama Season 12 (9) July 29th

[JD]

Yeah, that does sound like it could be good.

 

[Tuskin38]

Episode 1 is out!

 

[Rich Watson]

Making jokes about NFTs in 2024 well after they've basically died. That long production time for animation is a killer.

 

[JD]

That was a pretty good start to the new season.
The NFT stuff was pretty funny, and the stuff with Bender gave us some nice characters work for him.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Bender's grandmother was funny. I never want to hear "NFT" again.

 

[The Wormhole]

A fun Bender storyline. The subplot with the rest of the cast was rather meh.

 

[RPOW0614]

Watched it last night. Great return.
The stuff about the NFT's was a little dated but funny.
Bender in Mexico with Danny Trejo was awesome.

Futurama is back baby!!!

 

[Tuskin38]

I didn’t even notice that was Danny Trejo

 

[Paul Weaver]

All jokes become dated, I still watch Futurama 20+ years on from the first seasons.

I think My favourite episode from s11 was All The Way Down, with the simulations, especially once they talked about relativity

 

[Commander Troi]

Fun ep! Loved the Rodriguez clan.

 

[Burning Hearts of Qo'nos]

It was good! I liked this episode more than most of the episodes from last season for sure. My favorite bit was when the tiny ships started stealing the tiny NFTs and fed that footage to the security cameras. Said out loud OH MY GOD, STUPID and then laughed a lot.

 

[JD]

Has anybody played the Futurama city building game or listened to the podcast that went along with it? I think the comment about Bender's mother was a reference to those, because there was a storyline they did that dealt with her.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

That was a lot of fun and I especially loved Bender's abuelita. Yes, the NFT stuff is dated but it was still fun to watch that stupidity mocked yet again. Plus, it was fun to see Amy and Kif's kids integrating with the rest of the kids of the show so well. And, of course, Danny Trejo is always a blast.

 

[Tuskin38]

Bender's mother was first seen in Season 2

 

[JD]

That was a lot of fun and I especially loved Bender's abuelita. Yes, the NFT stuff is dated but it was still fun to watch that stupidity mocked yet again. Plus, it was fun to see Amy and Kif's kids integrating with the rest of the kids of the show so well. And, of course, Danny Trejo is always a blast.

It did kind of bother me a bit that Kiff and Amy's kids have aged but Qubert and Dwight haven't.

 

[Tuskin38]

Maybe his species ages faster.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

I'm pretty sure their rapid aging was covered in their introductory episode.

 

[JD]

OK, that would make sense, they are usually pretty good about that kind of stuff on Futurama.

 

[Tosk]

My fave gags in ep 1 was the brief boneitis callback on the sign and Zoidberg's "I'm feeling 2,000 hurts right now!"

 

[Tuskin38]

heh one of the achievement names in the Star Wars Bounty Hunter re-release is a Futurama reference
