Futurama 2.0: Into the Wild Green Yonder
I recently watched the final four-episode "movie" of the Return of Futurama, Into the Wild Green Yonder.
It was charming, and the ending makes me wonder if perhaps we may see more Futurama's in the, um, future. The ending is not exactly a cliffhanger per se, but you could read it that way. I for one would love, love, love more Futurama. It has become one of my favorite shows ever, and I write that while watching another favorite in its later years, The Simpsons (obviously). It's that crappy Frontier House send-up with Squiggy from Laverne and Shirley. So dumb.
Anyway, back to Into the Wild Green Yonder...
Leo Wong gets a big role in this one, and I really love him more and more as a character. Also, we find out that Amy was a junior champion mini-golfer. Fry reads minds and again has to save the Universe. Leela joins a radical group of eco-feminists. Bender sexes up the Mob Boss' wife. It's really charming.
And there is an equally charming special feature in which we get a glimpse behind the curtain on the making of Futurama.
