I think I'm finally starting to like Futurama - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

When Futurama first came out, I really wanted to like it because I'm a huge fan of The Simpsons, but I just could not get into it for some reason. I didn't find it very interesting or funny at all. These past few nights, I've been watching it on Cartoon Network, and I've been enjoying it. I loved the Smelloscope and the Titanic spoof and Bender going to Robot Hell.

I'll have to try and watch it more often.

Still nowhere near as good as The Simpsons though, IMHO, although maybe I'll eventually see differently.

I luv them both, but I think Futurama edges out Simpsons a little. Chris and I are just mad at Fox for cancelling it...and not promoting it...and preempting it a lot....Fox just treated it like crap.

Yeah, FOX really treated the show like garbage, which is probably another reason why I never got into it. I'm really kicking myself for not realizing its greatness before. This show is awesome!
