Have always loved the Futurama series and couldn't understand why it was discontinued. I had most of the series on video tape and wanted to wean my young granddaughter off American Dad so, having no video player, bought the first four seasons of Futurama on dvd for her. They cost less than £8 which was brilliant. She loves it and is halfway through season 3 and I am enjoying revisiting Futurama myself Would thoroughly recommend.

Good news, everyone, the third series of Futurama is just as funny as ever--irreverent, boundlessly inventive, warmhearted and chock full of in-jokes, sight gags and fleeting references to all manner of pop culture icons and obscure genre classics. In fact, if the show has a problem it's this very fecundity: it's all so lovingly crafted that scarcely a frame goes by without something both funny and clever going on: when a horse wins a race by a quantum fraction, Prof Farnsworth fulminates "You changed the result by observing it!" Recurring minor characters (Elzar the chef, the robot mafia, the mutants in the sewers) pop up unexpectedly throughout, providing another wink to dedicated fans; like Red Dwarf, this is a show that loves the genre it sets out to spoof. Shame, then, that the show has had a troubled broadcast history and never quite found the mainstream appeal of its stablemate The Simpsons. This year, Fry and the Planet Express team find themselves stranded on a planet of unfeasibly large women ("Amazon Women in the Mood"), standing in for psychotic Robo-Santa ("A Tale of Two Santas", with John Goodman reprising his evil robot) and variously falling in love with each other and sundry other humans, aliens, man-bots, fem-bots, virtual reality constructs and even the Planet Express ship itself.Read full review
What is there not to love about this product. it's animation at it's best from Matt Groening, when first released most people thought that it would not be able to compete with his previous super animation, The Simpsons, however many animation fans agree that The Simpsons had it's generations of watchers. but Futurama excelled in area's that is yet to be achieved by other adult animation. why Fox cancelled is a mystery too us all, you only have to visit you local high street media shops to see how much shelf space Futurama DVD commands, and with justification as it sells.
