I love every single Futurama episode. But if I have to pick my least favorite, it'd be "The Cryonic Woman" simply because it was one big continuity error.

I think the worst episodes are either "Leela of Her Own" or "Thats Lobstertainment".
Both had really stupid plots and neither we funny save for a few little jokes.

To me, there really are any bad episodes of Futurama, though there are eps. that were too weird ("Insane in the Mainframe" ), a little too jokey and not enough emotion and character, a bit too heavy on emotion and not humorous enough.
My least favorite Futurama ep. is prob'ly "Futurestock", since despite having almost every great character (Zapp and Kif, Morbo, Calculon, Elzar, Mom and her sons, Hettie), there aren't many laughs (except for Hettie, Zoidberg, the PlanEx commercial and Leela and Bender's reactions), and the boneitus scene was really disturbing and disgusting.
I find IsitMf too weird to be enjoyable. Fry going crazy was disturbing and not funny to me. I almost felt like I was going crazy along with Fry.
I don't like TKOS, but I find it much better than Fs or IsitMf. Before the time skips happened I thought this was going to be the worst Futurama ep. with Fry, Leela and Bender playing second fiddle to the Professy and his unappealing atomic supermen. They had the nerve to kille Arachneon, the only superman I liked.

Each to his or her own, obviously, but I find it hard to believe that many fans could not be incredibly disappointed with some of the more rubbishy season 4 episodes. A couple of them were, in my opinion, poor even by general TV standards, and seemed even worse because I had such high expectations of any Futurama episode.

Hmph, it's funny, I can't believe I haven't posted in this thread yet... Anyways, eps that I've got weird issues with... Leela of her Own: While there exists the possibility that there were many jokes in this that I just didn't get, it's seriously lacks humour. Two great bits ("I win" and "hit ball here to win the game" followed by blimp exploding) and a few decent lines scattered sporadically about do not make up for it. One more notch of annoyance for Teral! 300 Big Boys: Dull and dumb. I'm sad to say I got most of the jokes in this one, so it's doesn't have an excuse (unless there were a myriad of uber-subtle ones I missed...) once again, a few good lines (and a particular character... guess which one? ) make it in there, but not enough to make it a truely enjoyable 22 mins of television. Oh, it had a groovy ending too, but I don't need to tell you that. Where the Buggalo Roam:Despite having many good elements, it just didn't fit together as well as I'd hoped. Only ep where I didn't find zoidy hilarious. Once again, a few good lines An ep I'm still not decided about: Leela's Homeworld: Seriously, the least funny episode ever. I just need to decide whether this was a mistake or whether it was written this way in order to give prevelance to the plot, which I liked... Eps that make me sad when they appear on this thread: Less Than Hero Any season 1 or 2 ep besides the Cryonic Woman... (I like it, but there's enough hate for it floating around that I must clearly have some sort of suckfulness blind spot). The Why of Fry Jurassic Bark Roswell that Ends Well Luck of the Fryrish (sorry Coils) er... a few others, can't remember.

According to Ken Keeler's interview, the writer just writes the initial draft. Then David X. Cohen checks it, and the writers improve the jokes, etc... funny after all the tons of screening and changing, poor episodes can actually be produced (for me its Lesser than two evils).

Originally posted by Mouse On Venus: Worst episode for me was Spanish Fry which was a poorly conceived story combined with Ron Weiner's usual mixture of poor characterisation, dodgy non-sequiters and blatantly obvious gags. The Bender asides brought this episode to the lowest level of the series for a show that can do a lot better. Spanish Fry was a decidedly sub-par episode, but I did enjoy the series of Bigfoot jokes at the beginning. Then of course there's Zoidberg's awesome riff: "Fry, you have no nose! You nose is gone! I don't know where it might be, but on your face it is not!" Or something like that...

Originally posted by Jicannon: Originally posted by CWD: 1. No really memorable jokes or quotes. In APTR? something to the effect of "Nobody remembers my name... ..it's Bender" Huh... I guess it's kind of funny to accuse an episode about wanting to be remembered of not being memorable. Okay, not that funny, but neither is the episode. I'm not a fan of Obsoletely Fabulous. I love The Sting in spite of myself, but this one used a very similar twist, two (production) or five (McSeason) episodes later, and I didn't think it was executed nearly as well. Plus, Fry and Leela and the rest of the PE crew spend a good amount of the episode M.I.A. It makes sense with the plot, but it got really tiresome for me. I don't think Bender can support an episode that way. And I agree with the mob about ALOHO (despite the wonderful "I win" guy and a couple other little gags), TL, and the second half of CW.
