I guess they gave up on it in the second season once they figured out what they were in for. A robotic Santa gone awry is a very sci-fi touch. Classic. Not a bad Christmas episode as they go. There was only a little sappiness, nothing... Read more
This episode has no shortage of inspired animation moments either. Perspective seems to be the animators’ speciality. It amazes me how much good animation I miss, simply because it’s so seamless and edited like a live-action show.

Original Air Date: September 25, 1995 Virtual hacking is a method of file access which requires the hacker to send his consciousness into a data storage area. Read moreThis episode rolls all of your favorite horror myths into one. Part Dracula, part Christine and part werewolf lore, this one explores robot afterlife, Bender’s family ties and manages not to suck too badly. Read moreSpankey the monkey promised to be Chode’s big pay day. He’s the largest monkey-diamond ever discovered, and somehow Chode got his hands on him, my guess through a poker game. If you were to see Spankey in a bar, he’d be... Read more This here’s the story of the crew’s adventures in the mythical sunken city of Atlanta, yes, Atlanta. This great episode is full of rapid-fire one-liners and visual puns, way too many for me to describe. Read moreAnother attempt to give us some insight into Fry’s past life falters at the gate. It takes us out of the “Fry attempts to woo Leela” storyline and generally breaks the rhythm of pretty decent season. Read moreMistress Pain is a sex slave, but only in the loosest sense of the word. Yes she’s technically owned property, and a cyborg, but this bitch takes orders from no one! Read moreI gotta tell ya, I loves me some Bender, but this episode leaves me unsatisfied. It has dead-on Godfather inferences and the story is well-told. I can’t shake the feeling, however, that there was too much story stuffed into too little time. Read moreFull of classic Futurama humor, this is an excellent episode all around, and if you’re a fan of sex, jokes, and jokes about sex (and you are, because it’s one of the requirements of being a Sci-Fi Geek) you will enjoy this episode... Read more Bernice is the not-so-loving wife to Darph Bobo. While Bobo controls the entire Dark Clown Empire, she controls him through years of insults and sexual deprivation. Read moreMore Mom, Yay! She’s just an evil old bitch; I love her. Some steamy past romance comes to the forefront and we get to see a side of Bender never seen without mechanical coercement. Read moreActually, I didn’t hate this episode, I found myself being a little bored for about a third of it (all the bits with the President and First Lady) and most of the bits with Prince. Read moreAnother classic theme is explored in this episode: the evil twin. Very nice animation in a very sci-fi episode. The only complaint I have, aside from the usual nitpicking, is the ending. It’s like they didn’t have any more story and just... Read more Starting out with Benders hatred for can openers and a few well-placed zingers to a defenceless animal, Nibbler chips a fang (by biting Bender’s shiny metal ass). Read moreI loved this first part of the miniseries however and I personally rate it a piping hot 31,999 out of 10, however I added an extra point for Sikozu making it an even 32,000.
