    Fox had a really bad habit of showing episodes out of order which made the plot hard to follow, and they frequently preempted their shows for live content like football games and kept running commercials saying the episode was "coming up right after the game" but then wouldn't actually air it until weeks later. Then when their ratings were low, they said it was because no one liked it, not because no one had any idea when it was actually going to appear on the screen.

    Watching Futurama in 1999 was an exercise in frustration because most of the first season was preempted on the initial airings.

      if it had been an actually good show, airing out of order wouldn't have mattered. it wasn't some serialized series where every ep directly led into the next. it was stand alone episodes with a little bit of an overall story. the "the episodes were aired out of order " is gigantic cope from the idiots who think this completely average show was the best thing ever

    Compared to the shit they churn out now-a-days, yeah this series was pretty wholesome.

    But nobody liked it when it was aired because the episodes where confusing. It only became liked a few years later, and by then it was too late.

    Joss Whedon did a follow up film a few years later to appease the fans. (Picrel).

    I recon they could have gotten at least a few seasons out of it if they stuck with it.
