Ad after "Space Pilot 3000", I`t must be "Love`s Labors Lost in Space"!!!  

[Reply #43 on:]

Are there threads for series 2,3,4 and/or 5?

[Reply #44 on:]

It was a tough call between Space Pilot 3000 and Hell is Other Robots, but I had to go for Space Pilot. It was just the perfect first episode, from start to finish.

[Reply #45 on:]

Season 1 has many classics - My three sons, Fish full of dollars, Love's labours lost in space, I roommate, Series has landed - This is my favourite season.

[Reply #46 on:]

 I, Roommate wins followed by space pilot 3000. worst ep was "the series has landed"

[Reply #47 on:]

I, Roomate was the best in the first season, or possibly Hell is Other Robots - I agree, the song was great!

[Reply #48 on:]

I love season one too. the episodes actually have an order to them that you can't swap around. The continuality of them is unparalleled. to me all the other episodes from season two on could be swapped in any order, that is why fox did it. aside from a few select episodes like anything flexo for example.

also, it is just plain good stuff in the first season, comedy, romance, drama, adventure, and fry being stupid. i loved that part in loves labours where leela has the four legged mimic creature near her, and fry fun over with the net, he throws it on her and not the creture. NOW THAT IS STUPID! AND FUNNY!

it is just plain all round the best season. you can't beat it, unless they make a season with all the rest of the episodes. all of them seem a bit interrelated as they involve shippyness 7-10 times, so that could be interesting if they ever get around to showing them.

The Pilot for this show was the best pilot I have ever seen. I recently saw the Pilot for Family Guy, and saw how to not make a good pilot. The shows great and all but Futurama kicks it ass.

[Reply #50 on:]

"The Series Has Landed" is still one of my favorite episodes and i voted for it.

[Reply #51 on:]

This is heresy, I know, but Space Pilot was only "OK" in my opinion.  I joined the dance later than some and only saw Space Pilot the first time when it aired on Cartoon Network.  I knew the whole plot and all of the jokes before I ev er saw it so that probably made it a little less magic in my eyes, but I don't argue with the overall quality or historical significance.

But - the poll was for "Best Episode" and that normally means "laughs per minute" for me where Futurama is concerned.  Here it was a close race between "Series Has Landed" (that whaling song gets me every time), "I, Roomate", "Loves Labor" (any Zapp and Kif episode)and the winner of my vote:

"Fear of a Bot Planet"

Way too many jokes, both verbal and visual that were lauch out loud funny, and arguably the funniest final joke of any episode with the party stills.  Who knew a broken bottle to the throat and the resulting bandaids would make me laugh again and again.

If we were voting "production" season, the final four would have made this decision even harder (I love Zapp, Robot House, Lrrr and Slurms McKinsey), but "Bot" will always be one of my top  Futurama picks.

Yeah, I remember making a whole bunch of them about a year ago, I'm not sure if they're still open, but it you search you might find out    Also, someone made a new Season 5 one that's floating about somewhere around the first few pages   

[Reply #53 on:]

Tis gotta be Love Labours Lost in Space.

Zap and Kif are hilarious.

[Reply #54 on:]

Space Pilot 3000!

[Reply #55 on:]

Ummm...My Three Suns just beats Love's Labours Lost In Space.

One of Stewart Burns' better episodes.

[Reply #56 on:]

Space Pilot 3000.

[Reply #57 on:]

Well as i havent seen all the episodes yet i cant judge wich is the best for as long as i have seen SP3K is the best 

[Reply #58 on:]

I gotta go with "Fear of a Bot Planet." I just find that episode hilarious, especially the group of incompetent robot elders....SILENCE!

[Reply #59 on:]

"Space Pilot 3000" or "I, Roommate"  or "My Three Suns". I can't decide, this eps are great.

[Reply #60 on:]

Recently, "My Three Suns" has been moving up on my list, but Love's Labour *definetly* still holds the top spot of season one and of all four seasons.

[Reply #61 on:]

Loves labor lost in space was my season 1 fav.  Zap had me in tears, anyone who calls their bedroom the "Lovenasyuim" ...

[Reply #62 on:]

lol Indeed. My Three Suns was great but I didn't findI, Roomate all that good.

[Reply #63 on:]

It was either 'My Three Suns' or 'I, Roommate' for me. 'Space Pilot 3000' is the best pilot episode I've seen but I don't think it measures up to the rest of the season. In the end I went for 'My Three Suns' just for that dinner scene.

"Okay."
"OH DEAR GOD!!!"

Thanks!

 

[Reply #65 on:]

The first 3 are best, but I voted for "I, Roommate"

[Reply #66 on:]

Hey, "A Big Piece of Garbage" or not?

I vote for HELL 

[Reply #67 on:]

It was a tough choice between I, Roomate, and My Three Suns, but in the end I voted for My Three Suns because it was a lot funnier.

[Reply #68 on:]

Loves Labors lost In Space.  Zapp at his finest.

[Reply #69 on:]

Love's Labour's Lost in Space gets my vote.

"A Flight To Remember" as it's code is 1acv10, which makes it production season 1.
