This episode gets a 8/10 from me.

I like the direction they take this episode. They steadily keep the joke ratio at a good pace, and keep the story going along nicely. It was a very enjoyable episode to watch.

A Classic? I don't know. But it's definitely up there.

Also, it introduces us to NIXON!

Technically, the pilot introduces us to Nixon.

I meant to put: introduces us to him as his leading role of the show; Being earth's president.

Matt Groening loves making fun of Nixon, according to the commentaries. He said that when he was growing up, he thought Nixon was a jerk, and decided it would be funny to still make fun of him after he died.

This episode also had a funny quote:

Fry:Why is Nixon staying at the Watergate Hotel, anyway?
Leela:You get a discount if you've been here before.
