I though it was an average with not too many laughs but more solid storyline. It was more episode that mirrored Luck of the Fryish in discovering the past of a main character.
Also did anyone else notice Zoidberg seemed to be MIA or am I wrong.

The song is called "Baby Love Child" on the "Made in USA" album by Pizzicato Five, an old Japanese pop group. Originally posted by Venus: i desperatly want to know the name of that song so that i can burn a cd of it.

Liked it quite some, not top notch, not just medium. Still I think they should've kept this ep for like the 3rd last of the series or so. I sort of think they'll ignore her parents in future episodes (in the bunch of 3ACVX for sure). What's this with FOX changing the order all the time for no coherent reason anyway ? Another geeky joke added, well done! (The "There is no way of knowing how long it will take. It can take an hour or a million years." DING!) Good jokes included, like it "Like all of us, especially him!" (now copy and paste to CGEF, forgot to set the link there yesterday, now it looks like no one was interested ...)

Well, I didn't find it all that funny. I agree with those who said Luck of the Fryrish was a better job balancing humor and drama. I did like this ep, mind you... and I'd like it even more if I was a Fry/Leela shipper, with how it fits in my analysis of that... anyway. Her parents did seem pretty stupid, didn't they? What got me was they've been watching her her entire life, so how can it not be perfectly clear that she wants to know them more than anything else? She says it all the time! But no, they'd rather have her shoot them, that wouldn't be traumatic at all. Uh... because lots of newbies who aren't me will ask it anyway... right... because I'm just generally out of it, actually... can someone expand on the earlier clues to this that were mentioned? ...I still use too meny ellipses... don't I...

Maybe that should tell you something. Something along the lines of "cut back on the Nutrasweet and America's Funniest Home Injuries."

From Cinescape, Matt Groening: Everybody doesn't have to get every joke. That is an idea that makes network executives quake in fear. You don't have to dumb things down for the least educated or the most easily offended member of the audience. They can handle wit and sophistication and references to movies and theater that they haven't encountered yet, and it will not hurt them

I think this was a great ep. Not the funniest, but then again you don't always need humor to make it a good ep.

meh, would you rather have a really good quality show where the writers happen to keep forgetting to have things all connected, or some POS show designed only to boost ratings?
