Futurama is BACK! | Episode 1: The Impossible Stream Review + Breakdown

- In this video, I review and breakdown the new episode of Futurama, Episode 1 Impossible Stream. Every week I'll attempt to review every single new full episode with Fry, Leela, Bender and the whole planet express crew!
I thought it was apt talking about Futurama on this channel as it is also created by Matt Groening! Futurama airs weekly on Hulu and Disney Plus in the UK.

I think it was a good return. They obviously threw a lot of jokes to themselves and the television industry but they didn't feel out of place. Also, the plot was very faithful to the classic episodes and the characters haven't changed a bit.
Except Fry now has brainwaves...
@@TheOneManWhoBeatYou he had brain waves, just no delta.
Meh ... BUT they did the EXACT SAME THING when Comedy Central picked them up. It's played out - as much as I love Futurama and Matt Groening - they need to move TF on.
@@uberfu Aw c'mon dude, TEN YEARS and they can't joke about it? I actually think it's even better this time around and tbh the more times it gets cancelled and comes back the more fitting and hilarious the jokes are, and it's not like they're making the exact same jokes over and over, they find new ways to work it in, which makes it fresh. And especially when it's just a part of the show and integrated with all the trolling on todays streaming/bingeing and even lots of other funny jokes in various different styles it's just chef's kiss IMO.
There's been some truly great animated comedy shows through the years so (to me) it says a lot that I've always held Futurama as my very favorite of them all, I always felt kind of melancholy when it ended and equally as excited when it returned so maybe I'm kind of biased somehow but I truly think it's kept the quality and especially now (this far anyway). Lol sorry for the long winded reply... Anyway, what's your (or anyone else who cares to share) favorite animated comedy show?
That's awesome that they kept the original ending
Agree. Plus, I like the ending message about binge watching culture and the pop culture reference in this episode. I'm looking forward to the next episode.
@@artry93 definitely I like that they keep it classic and don't release it all at once
@EspyBoyz42 Agree. I have a few experiences doing that in the mid-2010s. So, I have decided to be more selected and flexibility with the shows that I'm interested in and watch some episodes per days based on my free day offs (weekdays and weekends) from my work in my schedule.
@@EspyBoyz42 Meh ... wait until all episodes are out and watch at your leisure.
I love the jokes they threw at themselves & Fry's speech at the end really felt like a dig at shitty reboots & a love letter to fans
I really enjoyed it and glad they picked up right where they left off after the Comedy Central finale.
It's tradition aferr the 3rd run
I liked that little extra comment Leela threw on when pitching the revival of All My Circuits.
“Maybe a Movie!?”
As Bender would say, “Let’s go already!”
Meanwhile was definitely a great series finale, but this first new episode didn’t feel forced and felt natural to continuing Futurama overall. It’s honestly the show that always gets cancelled but always finds a way to come back. Quite literally if I’m being honest.
I think it's an amazing start to what we will see, I feel like they're just re introducing the characters and meta joking about their return like every single time before. Also they're exploring the new 3023 world around them, they're stuffing a lot in there but they did an okay job. I'm also excited to see Fry and Leela's relationship, Hermes said that they are just boyfriend and girlfriend so we will probably see them get married again, I hope in this season!
......... you can lie to us - but you can't lie to yourself.
There are going to be some new episodes that follow up some of the stories from previous episodes: some examples include Parasites Regained which will follow up on Parasites Lost, the episode ‘Children of a lesser bog’ will follow up the episode where Kiff gave birth, in the original episode Kiff said they would meet up with these children in 20 years time: because these new episodes take place 20 years after that episode, this will line up quite nicely. I think that the episodes that will follow up in classic stories will justify the return.
I’m so glad they brought it back after 10 years
I just hope this doesn't kill Disenchantment
@@falconeshield yeah let’s hope not
It was awesome it's like they never left, looking forward to seeing Kip and Amy's kids next episode
I totally agree with the video and i too stand with the strikes, i support the writers, actors and animators!
BTW, my favorite part is when Calculon recited Hamlet super quickly!
I can't believe it started off at the Final Episode of the Original Run!
John DiMaggio was credited first. Noticed that in the closing credits.
Me:Did you die?
Futurama:Sadly yes but I survived
I'm kinda surprised they brought it back because "Meanwhile" was a great ending, but I'm glad it's back because Futurama is one of my favorite cartoons ever. This episode hard some real good laughs.
And I hope it does well because I'm definitely going to check it out.
I thought it was solid. I wish that maybe there was more commentary about the streaming production pipeline where they have to burn out their cast and crews just to make content faster and cheaper, but apart from that there was some really clever and funny moments (Robot Hell being the standout).
Thanks Lydia and James. 👍
For all your hard work, you deserve more loyal followers
Thank you! :)
Thank goodness for you, Lydia! I am horrible at remembering dates, so I literally didn’t remember that today was July 27 until I saw this video in my feed and I was like oh crap and I went immediately and watched the episode first. I’m like you I thought it felt like an old school episode but I wasn’t overwhelmed by it but like you I don’t think we were supposed to be for this one. It was still good!
I really enjoyed the first episode, but I'm so excited for the second one to be released! I've been dying for a continuation of the storyline of Kiff and Amy's children! I wonder if the one-eyed child is going to come looking for the person that gave them the one-eyed genetics -being the only one of the brood to inherit the mutation. Leela could struggle to not feel too maternal, the "child's" fascination with Leela overshadowing Kiff and Amy's relationship with their one-eyed offspring
When artistic people go on strike, you get the best placards.
the way i make sure to rememer elements from binging a show
is to simply do it again when i feel like it
new elements will jump out
Awesome! Great to see one of my favourite animated sitcoms make a return
..... until you actually watch it.
Maybe I'm a bit grumpy, because they changed the voices of Leela and the Professor in the German dub, but I think they where a bit to meta with the jokes. But because most of the stuff on the internet being English I was fine watching the episode in English, because I accept the original English version more than a German dub with the wrong voices. But I'm looking forward to see the next episodes.
i feel like given leela is still fry's girlfriend and she still remembers which i didn't think would happen that's a big accomplishment
I enjoyed this episode but they definitely went too far on the jokes about the cancellation/reboot. I was worried this would take away from the ending of "Meanwhile" but I am glad they handled it well without ruining that ending
I thought it was great and I’m even more pumped for the 2 episode
Always brighten my days greetings from Ecuador
It was a good return, but it was sort of putting me off with how meta it was getting. It was to the point only two of the jokes managed to make me laugh.
It was excellent episode and hasn’t mixed a beat. Loved it!
Tbh I'm glad it wasn't a reboot, I'm glad they continue the series how it should be continued, I was 13 when they cancel it at least a part of our childhood is back
You literally took the words out of my mouth when I was chatting to friends about this! The feeling of seeing old friends after a long absence. It was not trying to be a great episode, it was just trying to be Futurama, and it succeeded imo!
in all preparation I've BINGE through all episodes of Futurama to get excited for the Hulu Revival
I liked it. It was meta but not overly so. And it was really nice to see everyone back it felt organic
Benders laugh was weird. Sounded different. It did feel overly meta and kinda dumbed down but I guess we'll see how the next episodes play out
I loved everything about this. I hope it never gets cancelled now
Am I wowed? No. But was it what it needed to be? A fun re-easing into the show. Yeah. I can't say the comedy central pilot was one of the more memorable ones.
I think I'm going to watch these newer episodes along with the ones that were aired before it got canceled in 2003 when I have the chance to do so. This episode had its own subtle ways and my favorite part was when Fry said "Ow! My cortex!"
I'm so happy that Futurama is back! And the best part is that the new episode was released on my birthday! What a birthday gift lol
It's like the show never ended
I found myself thinking "Really? parodying streaming now that they are on a streaming service"
but I told myself to shut up and enjoy Futurama being back
I watched the episode this morning and I like I'm pretty happy I watch the episode in while when I saw the ending I was actually crying 💦 I'm happy they brought Futurama back
I agree, the ending was perfect. I cry every time ❤️
I loved it my life has been a complete mess this year and when I heard futurama was coming back this month it definitely made things a little better and it helps that like you said in the video it has that classic futurama feel unlike a lot of reboots lately can’t wait for the next episode
I'm decently happy with this, Futurama is back, and Futurama and the soul of the show is still intact.
Some people seem to complain about the voices? Idk, but I thought the were all mostly the same, only noticable difference to me being Billy West's characters sounding a bit older, but you know... That's understandable.
I wish they explained *Why* they suddenly skipped ten years forward. And have the characters react more to it. Right now it's just like; "Oh well, ten years have just been skipped and are gone from history, NBD!"
Some pretty funny jokes throughout it. I like Calculon being back, I hope we get more of him, but I guess we'll see.
All in all I'm reasonably optimistic for this new season.
Also: J, Philip I. Fry.
The only thing I missed on this episode was the "grand first episode" feel Futurama always had
It felt like Futurama didn't end 10 years ago
But then again, it was totally fine and fun.
It feels like the show will get more grand every weak. I have this feeling the whole "life goal" from fry will he carried on each future episode
Futurama was never a serialized show, but they did had serialized elements and mysteries, and i have a feeling that Fry's life goal will be one of them, along with his relationship with Leela
I loved how they pulled it off with time being frozen and stuff like that.
I loved this episode! I'm so glad Futurama is back! ❤❤❤
It's good it's back. Congratulations to animators and creators.
I watched the german dub, and i noticed that almost every Voice actor returned, except for Zoidberg and the Professor, and i don't know why they changed.
I still can’t believe it’s Ben 10 years
We're back baby!
It’s back baby!
I was excited for the return. I laughed and enjoyed it.
i am so glad Futurama is back :D i was worried how diffirent it would be and where it would pick up the show from, but i am super glad with how they picked up the plot again and how they seem to be true to how futurama was back then.
While I don't think it's a great episode I think it's a decent to good return to the show, I hope they deliver more funny episodes in the future or should I say... In the 'Futurama!'
All glory to the Hypno Toad! Thankfully its avaliable on Disney Plus in Canada
Like you I also had my doubts about this latest reboot, but if the first episode is anything to go by then I am more than happy to watch!
Definitely love the return
It was good made me laugh but in complete honesty I'm GLAD there are back and can't wait to see more
Ok so when I heard Futurama was coming back I decided to watch the entire series again and for some reason the characters felt wrong. I don't know what it was but it wasn't the same as the characters I have been watching everyday for a month.
4:22 ngl, but I love that slogan
there comeback was Great and just as Great as always I LOVED Futurama
Great Review, Lydia! I enjoyed this episode a lot. The only thing that took me out of it was Billy West sounding a bit raspy as Fry and the Professor. But the man is 70 now, we gotta cut him some slack.
Amazing video!
We're back baby
I hope your going to do this rest of this season
I’d say this episode about on par with Rebirth. Not great but still good. It’s close to its best but it’s still pretty good and I look forward to seeing the rest of the series.
it's was Great reintrocation to Futurama glad it picked right where the previous finale ended from the Comedy Central Era
One of my favorite shows are BACK!
3:45 I seen this in a watchmojo list and I'd say it here
THEY TOOK THE JOBS!
The video is interesting! I want to watch more 😘😘😘
Yay it’s here!
This episode had so many references and all I have 2 say, BENDER IS GREAT!!!
Yeah, references are WAY better than actual jokes!
I just love Futurama
also it's always sunny on mercury is a great reference
I hope the show can come to Disney+ soon because I don't have Hulu. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem?
It’s on my Disney + in the UK
It's on the UK Disney Plus
@@TheSimpsonsTheory I hope it comes to Canada soon.
I liked it.
It's like they never skipped a beat, lol
It would have been better if Leela and Fry got married in this episode
10 years of waiting, but it will be worth it
'We're back baby!'
Did I find a non-Simpsons video on a Simpsons themed channel, well I hope somebody got fired for that blunder. -10/10
Ngl the slurm ad was the most enjoyable part of the episode
I really liked this episode. I think it's way better than rebirth, slightly worse than benders big score, and not close to space pilot 3000. I give this episode a 7/10
Why you said that Bender Big Score is bad ?!
20 episodes?? Im so used to a 10/12 episode season from....basically everything lately. Good to know were getting a lot of content
I knew they were coming back but didnt think it on right now
OK. Not great but not the worst. Got some laughs. Leela's ponytail getting the biggest from me. But went a bit too much on the self awareness humour. I'm fan of that kind of stuff but there's a limit. But do always love they stick to continuity every time the show comes back
Yeah same. I really hope this was just exception and other episodes will be less self aware.
It just feels like more of the same from the comedy central reboot (what if current thing was in the future), which isn’t necessarily bad but for the first episode feels a bit plain. Hopefully the subsequent episodes will be better and have a couple gems.
well done!!
I hope the new season doesn't fall back into the old loop of Fry and Leela, will they/won't they.
Just get married! For real this time!
THISSSS
Omg I super excited to watch it🤓
Futurama never was self aware and making jokes about it. It really lived in its own universe and thats what i liked about it. They are following what other shows do and i dont like it 😢
Diddo
Bender: WE'RE BACK AGAIN BABY! WHAOOO!!!
Now we just need a Futurama equivalent of Ashley the Hacker (Simpsons)
It was a solid episode. Which is good enough to get it started again. In a way its another pilot. Pilots usually suck😂
Can believe its back
I support the writers and actors with their strike
Not the biggest fan of Futurama, I loved the show once, but it's interesting that it has returned.
I hope the best for everyone involved and the die hard fans get the show they deserve.
I was surprised by the quality of it. A great return and a far better rebbot than the 1st episode of yhe comedy central season. It reminded me of some of the fox seasons
About time it was back from Death's Door
the episode was really good
I know the perfect person on youtube for " Futurama Theory", it is not MatPat or me. I will post his name soon.
