    Now THAT was a great Futurama finale

    A question

    To confirm, the Bender that knew how to fix the sim was from an even more outer simulation, thus proving that the ‘main’ universe was also a simulation?

    They didn’t explicitly say it but that would match the theme

      Late to the party here, but yeah that was my take as well. As the inner simulation was about to burn planet express down, the professor made a comment about how catastrophic it would be given all the “doomsday” devices he has. I inferred that to mean that if all those doomsday devices went off, the outer simulation would be unable to simulate it, revealing that the “main” simulation was a simulation in itself; so outer bender came to the “main” simulation with the intention of stopping that from happening.

        Oh I didn’t even consider the doomsday devices, that makes a lot of sense :)

    Finally a GREAT episode this season! Some of the jokes fell flat and this wasn’t a top 5 episode, but it was still really good!

    Felt like a classic Futurama episode. Really enjoyed it. In the end, this is what’s important.

    This was a top episode

    • Story about more a sci-fi concept, and it made sense
    • Jokes that landed well
    • Characters not being totally dumb for no reason
    • Good resolution at the ending

    Great finale

    Just finished watching it. While not as funny as some episodes from previous seasons I enjoyed it. Probably my favorite episode of this season.

    This season was great a lot of original content and this one topped all of the…I really loved this season and I feel like it lives up to the old episodes. I really don’t understand the bad reviews.

    First episode of this season to hit me in the feels. I kind of felt the whole simulation aspect had been done in a more clever way in Rick and Morty, but overall a very solid episode. What a breath of fresh air after the turd that was episode 9.

      I think a new one was sent down, because the simulation (where they were all in the ship watching the star) still had a conscious bender

    This will be remembered fondly. I quite enjoyed the first two episodes of the season as well

    Finally, a Futurama episode that felt like a fucking Futurama episode! If only it had been like this since the initial reboot.

    Second worst episode I’ve seen in this season so far (next to Children of a Lesser Bog). Can’t stand when they do these alternative animation episodes.

    Hell, most of this season has been a disappointment. Dated jokes that fall flat more than they land. This used to be my favorite show but now I’ll be surprised if it lasts more than 2-3 seasons before getting canceled again.
