I thought they should end with Anthology Of Interest III.
We all know at least one thing that's going to happen, it's inevitable to make fans happy.

Not true!!

Fry made out with (much hotter) Amy Wong, so in my book, the guy that gets the asian chick wins. Forget Leela, she's just a tease.

so does kif get amy? What ever became of brannigan? Seems to be they should have ended it with a 4 episode movie like benders big score rather than limiting it to 22 minutes.

Meh. I didn't laugh once. :( Perhaps it is time to retire the show. It wasn't a bad episode, I suppose. But it wasn't up to par with the first finale to the show before they brought it back.

That was a fitting ending, IMHO. It's a shame they couldn't do more, but considering they couldn't really plan for this (it has to be a "soft" ending in case the show was renewed) it's the best kind of ending we could want.:)

Thats how i thought all of season 6 has been. Not that funny and not up to par of the seasons before.

Loved the ending.

I don't see why stupid shows like family guy/simpsons/south park are still on and this gets cancelled :mad:

There's always hope for Netflix to swoop in and pick the show up.

Even Cartoon Network could pick them up, they were in a bidding war with Comedy Central for the show when it came back.

The show never recaptured the original magic. Nothing from the reincarnation was as good as anything from the first run. A cute ending, but kind of anti-climactic. Good to see what happens with Fry and Leela, but I would have appreciated something on the other characters. Even an 'Animal House' style exit would have been more satisfying.

I'm going to miss it. I remember the time I found out about this new show "Futurama" by the creator of the Simpsons. I read it in a TV guide back in the 20th century (remember those TV guide magazines?)

Remember? It's still around.

I'm a sad panda. At least it was a good episode to go out on. I was afraid the terrible one before it was the last.

The season has been kinda weak, so I didn't have monumental expectations. But I was there for it's very first airing on Fox so I figured it only right I be present for it's swan song.
