Rewatching every episode

[on:]

Well it took me 4 months to get through watching each episode, commentary, and extra feature on all 4 DVD sets.

I've tried watching regular TV, but nothing compares to Futurama. I'm rewatching each episode (no commentaries this time around), so I predict it'll take me another 2 months.

Here's to another 2 months of Futurama!

I tried that once. Watching every episode of Futurama. I didn't even make it to Season 2...

[Reply #2 on:]

it took me two weeks, but most of it was on a portable dvd player. so I would watch in the car and well playing a video game.

My wife is disabled, so she has all day to watch DVD's, play with the computer, listen to radio, etc.  When I first found Futurama, she hated it, but after dealing with me watching all 72 eps, in order, she converted when she watched 'The Sting' with me.  Now she watchs one disc a day which cmes out to 15, so in 2 weeks + 1 day, she watches the entire series.

Took me about 2 months (with commentary) in the summer...but it was most late at night

[Reply #5 on:]

Yeah, I did that once. About 2 episodes a day, so a bit over a month it took. Now I don't watch TV. Everything just seems to suck. Stupid Futurama.

That's the cool thing about Futurama....it has rewatch-ability! 

[Reply #7 on:]

i've tried that alot! right now i'm on my "spectacular 7th chroniclazied futurama frenzy"

[Reply #8 on:]

i'm same as jbd i tried watchin them in order but gave up after season two disk 2

[Reply #9 on:]

I tried the adult swim approach (before I bought all the dvds) - I'd have the TV on while I was doing homework anyway, so I'd catch Futurama at least once a night.  I think I pretty much got through all the eps, but missed a couple here and there.  It's kinda weird but I actually prefer watchin it on AS rather than on DVD, despite the commercials.  Something's comforting about knowing that there are thousands of other Futurama fans watching a certain ep at the same time.

it took me a month to get through every episode, the comentary, and the special features.  With any other show I would be thoroughly sick of it by that point, but i can still watch futurama when its on [as].  Thats what makes fururama great.  No matter how much of it you watch, you can watch more.

 I would say that it does have rewatchability. I tried watching all of the Futurama episodes, in order but I just couldn't as I had watched everyone at some time or other. There are two episodes that I can't get enoughh of though, Three Hundred Big Boys and A Taste Of Freedom.

I've rewatched all epsiodes a couple of times. Didn't take me more than a month each time around. Altough I've only watched the commentaries once.

[Reply #13 on:]

Rewatched every ep an unfeasible number of times, though never actually tried watching each one simultaneously. May try it at Christmas or some other time that isn't the start of the new semester. To my shame I haven't yet listened to all the commentaries.

For that you'd need 72 TVs and 72 DVD players. You'd also need 5 of each disc. Plus you'd need a room big enough to fit all the shit in. You must be rich   

[Reply #15 on:]

That. Would. ROCK.

[Reply #16 on:]

Now that I think about it, I have been posting on PEEL more than I have been re-watching episodes.
Does that make sense?

[Reply #17 on:]

I tried watching every episode back-to-back once but didn't get any further than the last disc of season 2.

[Reply #18 on:]

Welcome punyhuman#1, my  fellow Englishman!
How come you didn't get any further?

[Reply #19 on:]

Sleep (or lack of it) 
However, next time my band's in the studio I'm going to compete with the guitarist to see who can watch them all & drink 100 cups of coffee (forget the music, there's TV to be watched).

I'm with Boltzmann_Fan. I've seen majority of them of Teletoon and the great thing (or rather the one of the many many great things) about Futurama is that you can watch them in any order and it all makes sense.

The most I ever got through in one sitting is through season 1 and up to "Bender Gets Made" in season 2....

I agree the commentaries are great, but I don't have trouble watching without commentaries.  I like to mix it up... try to do like 50% with, 50% without

I'm gonna go for a futurama MARATHON!!!! See how many days it takes, without sleep, to watch every single episode!!! Let's see...about 24 min. and ep...how many eps, 72? Yeah, that's over one whole day watching all the episodes. Hmmm...I've seen each episode at least five times, I wounder how many days i've spent watching Futurama...many many....Random thoughts are fun.

I've got a week off school (half term. Woo-hoo! ) and I've just found my Futurama season 2 boxset behind the Guiness World Records book from 1996. So I'm having a great time watching them in order. I do this about twice a year and I'm not bored yet. I usually watch the eps I like without the commemtary and the iffy eps with them. But when I watch Roswell That Ends Well, I watch the ep itself and the two commentaries. I LOVE it!

[Reply #27 on:]

over the holidays its easy to watch em all, cos its so boring and theres nothing else to do.

[Reply #28 on:]

During vacations I tend to watch every episode, but then I get done with them fast so I end up watching every Family Guy episode, then all the Simpsons DVD's that are out, King of the Hill, and so on, but when I finish and there is still enough time in the vacation I tend to watch Futurama over again.

This summer it took me like a month and half because I started to watch it a week before school started, I think the most episodes I have watched in a day is a season.

[Reply #29 on:]

I done this once i had 6 weeks of holidays i think it took around 3 days straight  but now sadly most of them are damaged but my PC mag said a bottle of brasso will do exactly the same as any of those cleaners you can buy .
im yet to try it.
P.S welcome to me , first post!!!

I'm going through every episode aswell, I'm half way through season 2.

I just got the first season on DVD for my birthday (yay happy birthday to me!) and I wasn't that impressed with the commentaries; there was alot of silence, but when they did talk it was very interesting. And why did Billy West only do like 3 of them?  He's so talented....
