Let's face it, Seymour wasn't thought up until the start of the fourth season. He wasn't in the first episode, because he didn't exist. He was just a lousy add in by the start of Jurassic Park. Nibbler in SP3K makes The Why In Fry more meaningful, since Nibbler was part of Fry in the future, from the very beginning, as planned by Matt and David. Jurassic Park, on the other hand, was a cheap shot in making a touching episode.
If the show had continued, they may have revealed Fry had a goat, or cat or even a lobster that evolved into Zoidberg's species, probably.
It is just like that Simpson episode up for an emmy this year against The Sting. Marge and Homer met at summer camp, instead of High school from an old episode? Come on, that is a load of crap. At least Jurassic Bark is way better than that Simpson episode.

Originally posted by Idan_Aharoni: Michelle's appearance has nothing to do with the fact that she returned later. I'm almost sure it was not planned when it was made. It's just to show Fry's was... well, loser. A lousy job as a delivery boy, his girlfriend dumping him, he hates his life... In other words - nothing to leave behind as he gets frozen. Then, we learn that it wasn't 100% true in Jurrasic Bark, which is quite cunning plot-wise. Actually, we found that out at the end of Luck of the Fryrish. JB only hammered it home. It's a major part of Futurama, too. Fry changed permanently from that moment at the grave.

Hi gang,
I too don't think that "Jurassic Bark" was a cheap emotional thingie. Why? Well, when it's (too) artificial, I simply am not moved. Some of the movies that moved me are Edward Scissorhands, Somewhere in Time, I forget some others. Some that didn't move me are City of Angels, Forever Young and I forget for this category too... Of course, all movies, tv, are artificial in a sense because they're a "design". Yet, I think that when an episode like Jurassic Bark touches so many people, there's something - a spark - that's there.
