Just let it die. But no Groening much milk the show.
Groening has been pretty clear that he's all about the money. I went to a Simpsons live show like 20+ years ago, and he specifically said that money was the only motivation for continuing the show.
People who like Futurama and want more: "yay!"
I'm ghappy that other people are happy.
People who like Futurama and don't want more: "boo!"
Y'all realize you can just not watch the new stuff?
This has what bugs me. People don't watch the new stuff AND complain about the new stuff.
I watch the new stuff, it's got good episodes, it's got bad episodes, and it's got just fine episodes. We've got three Futurama specials to look forward to. Maybe they'll be good, maybe bad, maybe just fine. I'm looking forward to finding out.

"How else will I get my daily quota of blood boiling? This suggestion makes me angry!"
C'mon Groening. Missed opportunity to say the show will defrost again.
Please don't, just let it be dead. The last revival sucked the next one probably will too. Just let people keep their good memories instead of turning it into another simpsons.
The good news with all of the series finales for Futurama is eventually you can hit your personal finale
For me it's the fractal of them zooming in and out of the simulations, and slowing down a simulation so far that it feels like to the people observing the simulation that the simulation has stopped, however for the people in the simulation it feels as if their timeline is running exactly the same as always. Everyone's sad to see it end, but Fry and Leela recognize instantly that for the people within the simulation that the stories never end.
IMO it was the perfect ending and I refuse on rewatch to watch past that
Futurama hasn't declined anywhere near as badly.
All i can remember about the last season is Kif and Amy have the kids now, there was an NFT episode, and there was an episode that looks like Tintin. I usually can remember the plot and character growth.
No but its travelling the same road, I'd prefer it ends on a high note.
The time loop finale should have been the real end of the show. It was the perfect sendoff.
In my head cannon it is.
Simpsons hasn't been canceled nearly the same number of times. Futurama is the zombie that won't stay down.
The irony is that The Simpsons is the one that should be canceled.
Please stop playing, Fry. I don't wanna hear how it ends.
This has to be the most “revived” show ever right?
I love the show, but I think it’s time to be done.
Zombierama!
Great news! Always love new Futurama.
Zombie ~~Simpsons~~ Futurama
Let it die man. Every new season just taints it. They don't know what made it good.
The next run won’t be drenched in allegory.
Maybe next time it comes back we can get some new Nixon jokes. Those are fresh.
They are still making Futurama? As far as I'm concerned, the show's finale was Bender's Big Score. Four great seasons, one good movie. Rest of it sucked.
Bro how can you not like the second movie too?
Take the deal Fry! If there’s a delicious cake, isn’t it better to have one slice than none at all? Even if four other guys eat the other four slices and they’re all thrusting their sweaty naked bodies against the cake?
Let it die
