I was pretty keen on them shaking up the status quo, don't know how much they ended up doing that

I really need to catch up with the last two seasons of the Futuramas
I think they might try some zombie-stuff with the Simpsons, if not a spinoff then some specials or something to gauge interest

Feels like you're setting me up for a political joke.

But IDK, there's good jokes in the (now) middle stretch of the show, lot of people got jobs
Then again I really don't rate the film
Wonder if they'll call it quits or soft-retire with this new movie

Also the Crazy Ex Girlfriend finale is pretty predictable and maybe a bit cowardly? That one I don't feel so strongly about

the ending of Malcolm in the Middle is so stupid
I didn't rewatch it or anything I just saw a thumbnail of it but it is so stupid

I naively think you could probably make it as good as you could then (I mean, basically by a total overhaul of the writers)

but yeah, I lean Scully-did-it-in too, there's a marked, immediate shift as soon as you get to his era in terms of quality of jokes, plots, and also the amount of gay jokes

Though not as I recall as bad as like 22?
Supposedly it's gotten good again I refuse to verify or believe this

It's not very specific really, it's much like Simpsons season 14-18 but worse

But sideways, despite all the reboots and whatever, some kind of live-action Scooby Doo TV show (or Dooby Scoo with the names filed off) seems like an open-ended stream of possibility

I'm liking this under general principle, I have virtually no recall of any Futurama episodes between the (Old) New Futurama's holiday special and and Meanwhile. My memory is just that it was all very Simpsons season 19 overall

Oh, Dublin is broken out in these maps that makes much more sense

Quark is used as the Unlikely Mouths Spake Truths a bit, the other one which is laughably incoherent is when he claims Ferengi never did Wars because they're too into Profit

Every story about NV on DS9 just has her just knowing way more ball than anybody else

And who knows what radical new format the new spinoff about the guy who owns a comic book store will take? Back to the laugh track? Away from it again? Anything is possible
