Futurama picks up the slack left by increasingly poor writing in later episodes of the Simpsons. Futurama's main character Fry is no longer a bumbling, balding forty plus family man struggling to understand the times, but a shiftless twenty-something American, thrust into a world whose technological and social improvements are double edged. Recycling has reached a pinnacle efficiency, yet pollutant belching robots are still common. While I applaud Fox for canceling this show before it reached a mature (and lets face it, unavoidably predictable and redundant) age, I also have to consider what I paid for the DVDs... enjoy the extra zeros in your paychecks, Fox.
