For all things Futurama

Rule 1: Don't be a jerkwad!

We tuned in expecting jokes and space hijinks.

What we got… was Seymour.

This wasn’t just a cartoon episode. It was a punch to the soul.

No dialogue. No manipulation. Just one dog… waiting.

Futurama showed us that animated stories could hit harder than real life.

Some of us still aren't over it.

Maybe my post didn't quite come across as I intended. I meant that that episode was so soul scaring that I've sort of mentally blocked it out. I still don't know why the writers did that to us.

That’s real. Some episodes hurt so deep they become ghosts in our memory. And then one frame brings it all back.
