Futurama seasons 1-4 is some of the best television ever made IMO, mogs the "Golden Age" Simpsons hard.
Rick and Morty had only 2 good seasons, like 20 episodes total, and they were nothing more than a bit of cheeky topical fun.
I can't imagine which show is worse in its current season, I guess the new Futurama just because it fell off so hard. But those first 4 seasons will always be my comfy comedy kino of choice
I don't know who you're arguing with anon, I never suggested otherwise. That screenshot you posted was from the S4 finale. You should work on your reading comprehension
It really is night and day, and the amount of people who can't tell a difference baffles me. It's not just zoomies, people my age/older who watched the show from the start seem to think there's no difference.
The main thing is it's just too energetic. There's no downtime, no silence, it's just constantly crammed in jokes and overcharacterization.
This scene summarizes everything wrong with it post season 4. Just absolute moronation https://youtu.be/XywGWnqKvFc?t=16
I'm not trying to be contrarian but I think all those "tug at your heartstrings" episodes are weak shit. I get so tired of people bringing up that dog episode like it's the best thing ever made
The dog episode was actually legitimately good. Although they continually attempted to catch the same lightning in a bottle again after that, and that was obnoxious. None of the other emotional episodes packed the same punch and it got the point where it was just pathetic
its entertaining, but seems kinda soulless. Nothing like the earlier seasons.
At least its something to watch, and isn't nearly as horrid as current zombie simpsons.
I watched the first episode and it was abysmal. I watched 5 mins of the next episode and realised they recasted Leo Wong's voice because can't have whitey Billy West doing a silly Chinese accent in 2023, that's genocide.
All the voices are terrible in general, save for John DiMaggio. There's just so much wrong with it I wasn't going to put myself through it for a couple of funny jokes. The original reboot (S6-9) at least had a few great episodes
>Futurama seasons 1-4 is some of the best television ever made IMO, mogs the "Golden Age" Simpsons hard
dangerously correct, S5 had some great episodes too, jurassic bark, troony bender, when they become superheroes and bender downgraded himself, etc
i think it works for some other things too... like some pyromaniacs being in some sort of trauma involving fire from a young age.

Some people who have threeways at some point in their life find out that they like having threeways. That's simply how exposure to things works. The key difference is that traumatic events don't typically have this effect, we just pretend that they do when we're talking about taboo sex acts. In your example, the would be pyromaniac is realizing that they find fire exciting. The idea that they were specifically traumatized by the event is suspect.
It doesn't. To examine it is verboten. Doing so would lead to the very simple observation that modern sexual norms are a completely social phenomenon and, as evidenced by a millennia of recorded human history, can change easily depending on where the wind blows. No one who gets ferociously beaten early in life develops a taste for being ferociously beaten. No one who has their family slaughtered in front of them early in life develops a taste for people being slaughtered in front of them. But somehow, for no reason at all, people who are "traumatized" by consensual sex acts at some point develop a taste for the same consensual sex acts later. The obvious answer is that they aren't actually traumatized by the event, and the act of normalization leads them to be less concerned with social stigmas later on. But you're not allowed to say that. Any "trauma" that is realized later is actually the product of feeling embarrassed when they come to realize their experience was atypical and frowned upon socially, not the actual act itself.
Trauma pretty much universally leads to aversion, not reconciliation and repetition. This is obvious to any honest person. The only cultural blind spot we have for this is certain, and very specific, forms of sexual "truama". And that's not to say that sexual trauma does not exist--it absolutely does and usually leads to the same aversive behaviors found in other forms of trauma-- we just have a giant category of "sexual trauma" that isn't actually sexual trauma, but is labelled as such for reasons of social prudence.
It's a bit more complex than that. Social mores often effect whether or not a specific act will be regarded (and in fact experienced) as traumatic. If you were raised in a culture that was convinced that hand-to-hand contact led to the destruction of your soul, you would be traumatized by handshakes. That would not mean that there was something inherently wrong with handshakes, but the trauma experienced by a person in said situation would be real.
But the thing you seem to be hung up on isn't trauma, it is sexual ethics. A person could be slowly conditioned to accept something that would be normally be experienced as traumatic if said conditioning was not in place. For example, if you're at Denny's and the short order cook suddenly pulls out a revolver and shoots your waitress in the head, it would likely be a traumatic experience for you. If however, you had been systematically lied to you from a young age and convinced you that anyone who asks you if you'd like another cup of coffee is actually a reptilian shapeshifter who will kill you if you say yes, then the same scenario would play out much differently. That doesn't suddenly make it a moral act, and in fact it could be reasonably argued that it was even worse because in addition to murder, that short order cook also brainwashed you into believing something that wasn't true. And will likely harbor a huge amount of resentment toward the person who brainwashed you, but you will still have a fundamentally different reaction to the act in question than people who were not brainwashed in such a way.
I was molested when I was 12 and it definitely fricked me up. I jack off to gross things like traps and aliens. I have a few lines I wont cross and I look down on pedophiles, beastiality and coal-burners but i definitely feel like i have some kind of mental illness myself.
>I jack off to gross things like traps and aliens
So? Unless you were molested by a trap or an alien, I don't see how it's relevant. Although I am sorry to hear about your experience and hope that you seek help if it is needed. I also jack off to weird shit sometimes, but I was never molested if that helps. You could just be a weirdo like me.

In your weird scenarios are you doing the fricking or getting fricked because with me I'm getting rawdogged big time. The more I'm dominated the better. And then i feel immediately regretful and wait a few hours, build up another batch and jack off to normal, healthy porn to make make myself feel less like a degenerate.

Little column A, little column B. Sometimes I just get bored and think of the most bizarre thing I can to generate that same spark. But thinking about getting fricked in the way you are describing is kind of doing it for me right now. No homo
I have been filtered by comedy central takeover futurama decades ago
I tried to binge watch futurama recently and I couldn't stomach season 6
It's a day-night difference between fox and CC futurama
I finally watched Rick and Morty and I don't get it, it's very hit and miss and very shallow all around, if I had to give a number that would be around the 50% is above ok(in this first 3 seasons), on the other hand Futurama is pure gold, it's like every single episode from early seasons it's an absolute classic, It's been a while but I think the first episode that made me go "yeah that was ok" was the one where Fry drinks 100 cups of coffee, and even that episode had a lot of memes that are still alive today.
I haven't watched the Hulu version, but every other attempt at a revival has fallen flat for me. Prime Futurama was my favorite adult oriented cartoon series, but the straight to DVD movies and the Comedy Central shit was borderline unwatchable
What the frick ricdit and Farty even about?
With the multiverse setting they can just shit out evil rick#56 anytime
After season 3 i thought plot was going somewhere but 4 seasons later, nothing worth looking forward to
Seasons 1-4 were gold
The movies were hit-or-miss but a worthy watch for any Futurama fan
Season 6 started weak and ended okay
Season 7 was more-or-less good
The finale "Meanwhile" is where it ends.
I don't want to listen to Elderly Fry.

Futurama ended after pic related. Everything that came after is not Futurama.

I watched the first two or three episodes of the hulu futurama and its not bad at all probably better than the first reboot
its entertaining, but seems kinda soulless. Nothing like the earlier seasons.

Futurama was more consistent. Rick and Morty bounces back between being unwatachable and watchable.
Xavier is better than both
Xavier is one joke that goes on too long it's funny in small doses but it's an abysmal show overall
Peak Futurama > Peak R&M (s1-s2) > current Futurama

have you been molested by a fat aunt or something?
>molestation leads to liking it later on in life
How does science explain this?
it's your brain's way of processing the trauma so you start liking it instead of being terrified
that's why a lot of molested w*men end up doing porn
that doesn't make sense
unless they were all filmed and posted online or something
Why does that exclusively work for sexual trauma and literally nothing else?
>sexual trauma leads to sexual deviations
hey I wonder about it too now

Justin, you have been fired. Passive aggressively promoting your views on an Albanian breakdancing forum is not going to get you uncancelled.

Happy to help 😉
Does the new guy not know how to do the burps? I watched fifteen minutes of the season premiere and there wasn't a single burp.
Maybe
I find the voices too irritating to actually give it a chance
Both were good in their heyday, both went on too long.
Of the two I liked the peak of Rick and Morty better. And I'm a 37 year old boomer. I doubt anyone under like 25 gives a frick about their one tho
Rick and Morty is absolute trash that shouldn't be liked by anyone.
Please stop using boomer as a general term for someone outdated
>boomer
Not watching your zoomshit
how much do they pay you?

they're paying you too much because you're doing a terrible job

I don't think Futurama is very funny, but it's very comfy and I can easily binge the entire series every few years.
That's a decent way to describe it. It rarely made me laugh out loud, but I always enjoyed watching it when it was on.
I haven't watched the Hulu version, but every other attempt at a revival has fallen flat for me. Prime Futurama was my favorite adult oriented cartoon series, but the straight to DVD movies and the Comedy Central shit was borderline unwatchable
Insert picture of Mr Boss pointing a gun at Rick Sanchez.
I want to be excecuted bya SNU SNU
I swear no one in these threads watches TV
Why the frick would I? TV shows fricking suck, they take too much time, and they're boring
Brick & Mortar sucks and isn't funny
