Space Pilot 3000

A really great pilot episode to what is just as good as The Simpsons and one of my favorite shows, the humor feels very familiar when compared with The Simpsons but has a different tone. The episode as a whole feels a little basic compared to some episodes I remember from later seasons but is still great as a pilot episode. The world building was really subtle and thankfully wasn't all shoved in your face a bunch at the start of the series,

The characters meeting and interactions are really enjoyable and I can't wait to see how the rest of the crew come together. I forgot just how much I loved Bender and the Professor, but how could you not love the whole main cast so far. There were a lot of classic scenes such as the suicide booth and fry initially getting frozen (I. C. Weiner), the Matt Groening easter egg was a nice touch also!

8/10 - Really enjoyable as an introduction but feels a bit lacking compared to later episodes from memory.
