Grab your monocles and your expensive cigars, and let's talk about this fancy-pants episode.

8/10
My 5th favourite episode of Season 1.

9/10...an all-time classic episode and also one of my season one favorites. Love seeing Mom transform from a kindly, old (and fat) motherly figure into the evil Mom we all know and love.

Twas a great episode, among my top 20 at least.

Classic episode, had some great twists, and also introduced one of the best characters in the show, Mom. 

Hell I should have given it a ten for "Going to some charity BS for knocked up teenage sluts."

"Mom, love and screen door are trademarks of Momco."

I gave this one a 9/10. Fabulous introduction of Mom and an interesting further development of the relationships between the trio. Also did a nice job furthering Zoidberg and playing with some fun sci-fi ideas.

A good introduction of Mom and her sons. Some laughs here and there, I'd say a solid 8.

A nice and solid 8/10. I liked seeing the rich Fry, and the Twentieth Century house. Season 1 kinda had a weird "learning lessons" feel to it, and made me enjoy it a teeny bit less. This was still a pretty good ep though.

This one would be a good 8 out of 10. While not the greatest episode, it definitely had that representative Futurama feel surrounding it, had a good plot, as well as the introduction of the most lovable evil company owner in television history - Mom! Some great gags too: "Baby Got Back", the unexpected Zoidberg ending, and Mom's sons' ridiculous set-up for Fry. Just proves how stupid he really is.

Nothing special, just an all-out laugh.
