I liked it. Of course, I wasn't expecting to hear Peggy Bundy in it.

It was...funny. Not Simpsons funny, but funny.

I enjoyed it. In particular, I thought Bender was hysterical. That scene in the suicide booth managed to get a good laugh out of me -- not an easy thing to do.

*kicks Sol* I loved it! It was better than the Simpsons! The head museum was my favorite . Hey, as long as it makes references to Star Trek, it's cool.

I know, I know...this will probably incur some wrath from some of you all, but I was kinda dissapointed in it. I will definetly watch it again though.

Yeah, I have to agree. But I think it was just because it was the first ep. It definitely has the potential; I'm sure it will get better. It was still funny.
*points at Ziyal* Kill the heretic! How dare you say it was funnier than The Simpsons?! That's blasphemy! Well, not blasphemy by any literal definition, but close enough!

I think the main reason I liked it, was because it's, visually, pretty much like the Simpson's. If it was any other style, I probably wouldn't have even watched it

I only watched part of it, so I won't pass judgement until I see a few more episodes. But I wouldn't say that it was funnier than the Simpsons (well, the part of it I did watch that is), in my experience nothing is funnier than the Simpsons (except possibly a couple of Canadian comedy shows like Air Farce and Double Exposure, but I may be a little biased here ) simply because the Simpsons has such a variety of episodes, and they poke fun at just about everything. I'm curious to see where they take Futurama storywise in the next episodes.
