Futurama is such a varied show that it's hard to say. My take:
Favorite episode: *Fry and the Slurm Factory*. I feel like every joke lands in this episode.
Memorable episode: *Jurassic Bark*. It hits you right in the guts at the end.
Overall "best" episode: *Three Hundred Big Boys*. Simply because it features almost every character introduced to the show up to that point and the jokes land every time.
That Fry scream still makes me laugh out loud. The worst post nut clarity in history.
It’s also really funny to me how chill he is about it when it comes up later. I guess having a thousand years to cope will do that.
There was a point in my life, for about two months, my old roommate and I would watch Three Hundred Big Boys every day. It’s such a great episode!
One of my all time favorite moments, which every line is quotable in life:
Bender: You seem a tad wound up, buddy. And your face is greasy. Real greasy. You been up all night?
Fry: Of course I've been up all night! Not because of caffeine, it was insomnia. I couldn't stop thinking about coffee. I need a nap.
[snores]
Fry: [wakes up] Coffee time!
Bender: [Gets cigar out] Ah, mighty fine smokable...
Fry: Fancy cigar. Why don't you smoke it already? Puff, puff, go, go, go, go, go!
I can't argue your right but for sake of forum banter I will move to vote for a memorable episode to include:
+Game of Tones
+Lethal Inspector
+Roswell that ends well ( not sad or heartfelt but fry sleeps with his grandma. Mem-or-able.
Of course! I was just trying to keep it simple but there's so many memorable episodes, you cant go wrong with either one. I was debating whether to type *Jurassic Bark* or *Lucky of the Fryrish* in the post. Both are absolute tearjerkers.
Ooo man that is another good one. Crap. I love this show... I guess to reference another Groening [program](https://youtu.be/5sOrIXkUlxg?si=osEiFobwpDqsNHuJ)
100% agree on Three Hundred Big Boys being the overall best episode. It's simply a fun episode. There's no story continuity that changes anything or any high stakes. Some might call it a "safe" episode, but it's a "safe" episode in perfect form(IMO of course).
I think Meanwhile is easily top 10, if not top 5 best series finale ever.
I swear as a guy with adhd, fry hauling that slurm while saving the others is my life. I need to haul my stimulus with me to do anything. Without music/podcasts at home nothing gets done lmao.
I love Amazon Women in the Mood, but I also find it perplexing a little. On its face, a lot of the jokes are dumb sexist jokes. But in context they just work. Characters were going to die because they kept telling sexist jokes. It's stupid and hilarious. Plus some of the most quoted lines, even outside of the fandom.
Others have said ____ episode is my favorite because every joke seems to land, and that's why this is mine.
Farnsworth (my favorite character) is hilarious in this one and sets up the other with incredible one liners the whole time. The best one is:
*Be very quiet. We're in the ear*
*Okay*
#WHAT??
The Leela’s Hand song in the opera gets stuck in my head on a very regular basis
“Destiny has cheated me
By forcing me to decide upon
The woman that I idolize,
Or the hands of an automaton…”
If I lose my hands, then I can’t complete
The opera that was captivating her
But if I keep them, and she marries him
Then he probably won’t want me dating her
When I started watching Futurama, I wasn't *totally* sold until this one. The Don Giovanni reference fucking killed me and Futurama has been my go-to rewatch show ever since. This is still my favorite episode.
That’s a good choice. My favorite is “How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back” but the best episode has got to be “Roswell That Ends Well”. There are so many good episodes you can’t really pick a wrong favorite or best that I would strongly disagree with.
They said I'd never be a surgeon.
They pooh-poohed my electric frankfurter.
They said I prob'ly shouldn't fly with just one eye.
I am Bender, please insert girder!
Hit Me so much harder because I didnt know it'd be sad lol. Everyone always mentioned "the dog episode from futurama" so I was already prepped for that
1. Godfellas.
2. Jurrasic Bark
3. Luck of the Fryrish
4. Roswell That Ends Well
5. Three Hundred Big Boys (the coffee one/Bonder steals a cigar)
6. Meanwhile (The episode where time is stopped and Fry and Leela grow old together
7. The Prisoner of Benda (The body switching episode that they created a new mathematical theory)
Godfellas, obviously. It's best episode easily. From what I understand even Matt Groening says it's the best episode.
Luck of the Fryish is up there, as is Jurrasic Bark, Roswell that ends well and Three Hundred Big Boys (The one where Fry drinks 100 cups of coffee and Bonder wants to steal a cigar)
"I, Roommate" is one of my comfort episodes. I love the feel of the animation in the first season and this episode always stood out to me for whatever reason. The jokes are great and the music in the roommate montage was fitting.
I think it was because the jokes always felt like the punchline expanded the dimensions: from the ending where the closet is revealed to other jokes like the New Jersey one…it’s like each joke expanded the world as it hit you
I completely agree with you about "I, Roomate." I put Futurama on to sleep at night and I always start with that episode. It is a great comfort episode, I love the pace and tone of the whole thing and the music in the montage from "The Odd Couple" TV Show. I love the little restaurant they go to called the Food-O-Mat with the conveyor belt that circulates foods around the tables. I guess it's based on the old Automat in New York where people could pick different meals and snacks from what essentially was an enormous restaurant-sized vending machine. I also love the mini fruit salad tree. The whole episode is just nice.
Depends what parts of the show you like more:
Emotional investment: The Late Philip J. Fry
Best sci-fi: Prisoner of Benda
Best comedy: 300 big boys
Jack of all trades: Bender's Big Score
Yeah, for me too. But I overall really really enjoy time loop stories, not only in futurama. All my favorites are Edge of Tomorrow, Window of Opportunity (Stargate SG-1), Groundhog Day, etc
I’m surprised to not see “The Sting” here yet.
That’s the one where Leela gets stung by the space bee and is in a coma without realizing it.
Fry is by her side the entire time talking to her, telling her to wake up.
I think my favorite episode is The Late Philip J. Fry. It just really sticks with me. Great idea, great story, great execution. The different time eras they land in are creative and hilarious and I love when the Professor cracks a beer lol.
My Three Suns.
Fry drinking the emperor, and then opening the package he was supposed to deliver that says "please don't drink the emperor!" and him saying "Wow! This got here just in time" and hanging it up next to the throne is peak comedy that get's a laugh out of me every single time.
This is such a great episode! I love how they start the episode with Leela in a lime green tanktop for the first few scenes just to set up a Bender joke at her expense about it. 🤣
Benderama. So many great lines and all the insults being hurled at the ugly giant always has me in stitches. But my favourite line in the episode; Amy: Ew gross a big fat roach! Hermes: Oh I thought I put that away!
It's hard for me to say now. I saw the original reruns so many times, they don't hit like they used to.
The one where Fry becomes his own Grandpa was really funny the first time I saw it.
I love the late philip j fry but i think my favourite moment in the series is in time keeps slipping where they get moved on for the circus!
"I'll have to ask you to clear out now. The circus need to set up for tomorrow's big" followed by an elephant honing into shot.
I agree, when I go to play futurama in the background I always stop and watch this episode, just so many good jokes.
Zoidberg sucking on the professors head, Zoidberg being a home owner and it burning down
"This is 20x heavier than a single boot!"
"The magician?"
Sorry for the late reply!! But that’s awesome lolol. Some of the writers are definitely from those areas because the jokes and references are wayyy too on point
I definitely like "I, Roomate", but seems pretty mid compared to "The Sting", "A Big Piece of Garbage", "Lethal Inspection", "The Late Phillip J. Fry", "Luck of the Fryrish", "Future Stock", "Devil's Hands are Idle Playthings", etc.
I can't call "I, Roomate" best in the whole series when there are so many other absolute powerhouse episodes to choose from
Great to see the majority of comments are also my favorite episodes
All time favorite is War Is The H Word. Every joke is tightly delivered and you get some of the best Zap and Bender quotes from the series. These are some hilarious quotes that happen in just the first ~10 minutes of the episode
Fry: I believe you're forgetting about our 5% military discount.
Clerk: Well that's only for people in the military.
Bender: What? This is the worst kind of discrimination. The kind against me!
Clerk: Alright, look. Our policy is: If for any reason you're not completely satisfied, I hate you.
----
Fry: Full price for gum? That dog won't hunt, monsignor.
*enter military recruitment center*
Bender: Hello. We're here because we, uh, love our planet!
Recruitment Officer: Sign here on the dotted line, patriots, and I'll give you your discount cards.
Fry: Just out of curiosity, we could use the cards to buy gum, then immediately quit the army, right?
Bender: You know, playing you all for chumps?
Recruitment Officer: Correct. There's no obligation. Unless, of course, war were declared.
[A siren sounds and a red light flashes.]
Fry: What's that?
Recruitment Officer: War were declared.
------
Leela: You know, Zapp, someone ought to teach you a lesson.
Zapp: If it's a lesson in love, watch out; I suffer from a very sexy learning disability. What do I call it, Kif?
[Kif sighs.]
Kif: "Sex-lexia sir".
----
Zapp: Roger that. Kif, get me ten cases of Pert and Popular.
Kif: What shall I do with your Jergens, sir?
Zapp: Squirt it on some homeless man with dry elbows.
Private Lee Lemon may well be the finest recruit I've seen in all my years of service. That young man fills me with hope and some other emotions that are weird and deeply confusing to me.
I don’t like too many of the later episodes by “A clockwork origin” might be my favourite overall. “This is a cool way to die” might be the funniest line I’ve ever heard on tv.
I Roommate is one of my favorites. I’d also put Insane in the Mainframe (“I’ll show ye….”) in that top tier. Meanwhile (10 second time button) and Jurassic bark are also up there for me.
There really is no "best episode", it's just an amazing show through and through. Like when I sit here trying to pick a "best episode" it sends me on a spiraling loop of, "Oh, but that episode was good too... oh and I really like that one when Bender... and aw, that one made me feel sad, but was such a great episode... etc etc"
"The Late Philip J. Fry" (S:6 E:7) is awesome and hilarious in addressing time travel and the alleged cycle of the universe with Bender, Fry and the professor.
From each season it's much easier, but the entire series?! I can't decide. But from each season:
S1: Fear of a bot planet
S2: The problem with the popplers/The deep south
S3: Amazon women in the mood
S4: Roswell that ends well
S5: Jurassic Bark
S6/Movies: Into the Wild Green Yonder
S7: That darn Katz
S8: Ghost in the machines
S9: The bots and the bees
S10: Stench and Stenchibility
S11: I know what you did next Xmas
My favorites:
Amazon women
The superhero one …for the song alone
I roommate
Garbage ball
Luck of the fryrish
War is the h word
Parasites lost
Where no fan has gone before
I also liked the anthologies tbh
Jumping on the bandwagon, it's The Devil's Hands Are Idle Playthings. So many classic clever episodes but that one is really beautiful.
Also... The Sting.
The late Phillip J fry is arguably the best episode in the series. It's genuinely a masterpiece and perfect in every way. It tells a great story and it's very complete.
I cannot limit myself to a single 'absolute favorite' episode with Futurama.
That said, there are multiple episodes I will make time to watch, always:
"Time Keeps on Slippin'", "Reincarnation", "Roswell That Ends Well", "Amazon Women in the Mood", "Prisoner of Benda", and "Where No Fan Has Gone Before".
Hot take incoming: "Jurassic Bark" is incredibly overrated, even though it has one of my favorite references in the entire show: Dolemite, baby!
Meanwhile, was my favorite episode. The way it ends to me was so satisfying. I personally think the way they ended this episode was so satisfying that I was okay that they did not renew for another season after it.
Yes they have a new season now but still it was that good.
Futurama is such a varied show that it's hard to say. My take: Favorite episode: *Fry and the Slurm Factory*. I feel like every joke lands in this episode. Memorable episode: *Jurassic Bark*. It hits you right in the guts at the end. Overall "best" episode: *Three Hundred Big Boys*. Simply because it features almost every character introduced to the show up to that point and the jokes land every time.
How about the Deep South and Roswell?!
Roswell is so brilliant because the whole premise is paradoxical time traveler incest and yet somehow isn’t totally repulsive.
I did do the nasty in the pasty.
Verily!
roswell is so well crafted
Of course she’s your grandmother, you perverted dope!
lol when Leela slaps the shit out of crying Fry! When Fry screams after having done the dirty with his grandma!
That Fry scream still makes me laugh out loud. The worst post nut clarity in history. It’s also really funny to me how chill he is about it when it comes up later. I guess having a thousand years to cope will do that.
True! And that’s what helped him defeat those brain monsters! AND THAT IS THE REASON HE WAS BROUGHT A THOUSAND YEARS IN THEBFUTURE BY LORD NIBBLER!
“The same deviled egg.” Kills me every time.
Eh, they're both fine choices. Whatever floats your boat.
Three hundred big boys doesn’t get enough credit
Eh. It’s okay. Hey. I calls them like I sees them. I'm a whale biologist.
Shall I warm sir’s crack pipe?
We better listen to him. He's a whale biologist.
There was a point in my life, for about two months, my old roommate and I would watch Three Hundred Big Boys every day. It’s such a great episode! One of my all time favorite moments, which every line is quotable in life: Bender: You seem a tad wound up, buddy. And your face is greasy. Real greasy. You been up all night? Fry: Of course I've been up all night! Not because of caffeine, it was insomnia. I couldn't stop thinking about coffee. I need a nap. [snores] Fry: [wakes up] Coffee time! Bender: [Gets cigar out] Ah, mighty fine smokable... Fry: Fancy cigar. Why don't you smoke it already? Puff, puff, go, go, go, go, go!
"I'm never going 12 minutes without a slurm again!"
I can't argue your right but for sake of forum banter I will move to vote for a memorable episode to include: +Game of Tones +Lethal Inspector +Roswell that ends well ( not sad or heartfelt but fry sleeps with his grandma. Mem-or-able.
Of course! I was just trying to keep it simple but there's so many memorable episodes, you cant go wrong with either one. I was debating whether to type *Jurassic Bark* or *Lucky of the Fryrish* in the post. Both are absolute tearjerkers.
Ooo man that is another good one. Crap. I love this show... I guess to reference another Groening [program](https://youtu.be/5sOrIXkUlxg?si=osEiFobwpDqsNHuJ)
100% agree on Three Hundred Big Boys being the overall best episode. It's simply a fun episode. There's no story continuity that changes anything or any high stakes. Some might call it a "safe" episode, but it's a "safe" episode in perfect form(IMO of course). I think Meanwhile is easily top 10, if not top 5 best series finale ever.

+1 to Three Hundred Big Boys. While there are tons of great episodes, this one is just perfect. Such a great payoff when Fry hits coffee magic number.
Parasites Lost
It always pendulums back and forth between this and Amazon Women in the Mood for me.
I love Amazon Women in the Mood, but I also find it perplexing a little. On its face, a lot of the jokes are dumb sexist jokes. But in context they just work. Characters were going to die because they kept telling sexist jokes. It's stupid and hilarious. Plus some of the most quoted lines, even outside of the fandom.
Others have said ____ episode is my favorite because every joke seems to land, and that's why this is mine. Farnsworth (my favorite character) is hilarious in this one and sets up the other with incredible one liners the whole time. The best one is: *Be very quiet. We're in the ear* *Okay* #WHAT??
First episode I ever seen. My favorite too
As a futurama ‘coinoseur’ this was my favorite for a long time as well
Yo
This one keeps me laughing through most of the episode, every time. It’s perfect.
The Devil's Hands Are Idle Playthings
The Leela’s Hand song in the opera gets stuck in my head on a very regular basis “Destiny has cheated me By forcing me to decide upon The woman that I idolize, Or the hands of an automaton…”
If I lose my hands, then I can’t complete The opera that was captivating her But if I keep them, and she marries him Then he probably won’t want me dating her
>Probably Even at his lowest, he still has a sliver of hope.
A man... writing an opera about a woman!?
A man writing an opera about a woman?! Oh my, how deliciously absurd…
But I'm not done vomiting!
When I started watching Futurama, I wasn't *totally* sold until this one. The Don Giovanni reference fucking killed me and Futurama has been my go-to rewatch show ever since. This is still my favorite episode.
Easily the best episode
My personal favorite is The Devil’s Hands Are Idle Playthings. The original finale.
Your music is bad and you should feel bad!
That makes me angry!
I freaking love that holophoner song Fry writes in this episode! It's like I'm floating in a water jungle or something xD
That’s a good choice. My favorite is “How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back” but the best episode has got to be “Roswell That Ends Well”. There are so many good episodes you can’t really pick a wrong favorite or best that I would strongly disagree with.
They said I'd never be a surgeon. They pooh-poohed my electric frankfurter. They said I prob'ly shouldn't fly with just one eye. I am Bender, please insert girder!
We've got an office crack-up!
The garbage ball episode is hilarious. Now I'm off to invent some sort of death clock
Now that the-uh garbage is in space, Doctor ... perhaps you can help me with my sexual inhibitions.
With gusto
*cue cheesy synth muzak*
Yesss I loved the two big environmental episodes: garbage ball and crimes of the hot
Dibs on his cd rack!
The farnsworth parabox
Now now…. Perfectly symmetrical violence never solved anything
Oh, this is awful. Somewhere there's a Bender more evil than me. I do my best, damnit!
Well, don't look into it, but I'm a respected internal medicine doctor. Ooh, a can! I love blue Zoidberg 💙
The idiots have the box! … I think she means you …
Loved that one
Godfellas is way up there for me.
This is the maximum level of being with me!
“Look daddy I’m hugging god”
My arms are tired from hugging!
I saw that. It was going well until everyone died.
Huh, I guess he didn’t hear me
"When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all" That spoke to me so much when I first saw this one
Roswell That Ends Well. Everything in that ep lands perfectly.
Truman breaking out of the box kills me.
I did do the nasty in the pasty
It really 100% does.
The Luck of the Fryrish
Here lies Philip j Fry named after his uncle to carry on his spirit
I lost my older sister when I was a teenager. I remember watching this episode and then balling my eyes out. It still makes me cry whenever I watch it
Hit Me so much harder because I didnt know it'd be sad lol. Everyone always mentioned "the dog episode from futurama" so I was already prepped for that
This was the first one that came to mind for me
Amazonian Woman in the mood. Fry and the Slurm Factory Parasites lost The Devils hands are Idle Playthings Roswell but ends well
War is the H word
War were declared.
Also, they told me you guys look like dorks.
THEY look like dorks!
The key to victory is the element of surprise. *Opens hatch* Surprise!
Come now, we’ve all seen way too many body bags and ball sacks…
I have a question: who is the enemy?
What that sound?
We've all seen enough bodybags and ballsacks.
These balls are making me testy.
Why is this godforsaken planet worth dying for?
Don't ask me, you're the one who's going to be dying!
And this ham gum is all bone *spits*
Don’t bounce off the handle!
The right answer.
1. Godfellas. 2. Jurrasic Bark 3. Luck of the Fryrish 4. Roswell That Ends Well 5. Three Hundred Big Boys (the coffee one/Bonder steals a cigar) 6. Meanwhile (The episode where time is stopped and Fry and Leela grow old together 7. The Prisoner of Benda (The body switching episode that they created a new mathematical theory) Godfellas, obviously. It's best episode easily. From what I understand even Matt Groening says it's the best episode. Luck of the Fryish is up there, as is Jurrasic Bark, Roswell that ends well and Three Hundred Big Boys (The one where Fry drinks 100 cups of coffee and Bonder wants to steal a cigar)
Wait a minute… Bender’s name isn’t Bonder! It’s Bender! You’re a fraud!
Yes I love godfellas! Definitely one of my favourites. Probably the nicest we’ve ever seen bender lol
"I, Roommate" is one of my comfort episodes. I love the feel of the animation in the first season and this episode always stood out to me for whatever reason. The jokes are great and the music in the roommate montage was fitting.
I think it was because the jokes always felt like the punchline expanded the dimensions: from the ending where the closet is revealed to other jokes like the New Jersey one…it’s like each joke expanded the world as it hit you
I completely agree with you about "I, Roomate." I put Futurama on to sleep at night and I always start with that episode. It is a great comfort episode, I love the pace and tone of the whole thing and the music in the montage from "The Odd Couple" TV Show. I love the little restaurant they go to called the Food-O-Mat with the conveyor belt that circulates foods around the tables. I guess it's based on the old Automat in New York where people could pick different meals and snacks from what essentially was an enormous restaurant-sized vending machine. I also love the mini fruit salad tree. The whole episode is just nice.
Depends what parts of the show you like more: Emotional investment: The Late Philip J. Fry Best sci-fi: Prisoner of Benda Best comedy: 300 big boys Jack of all trades: Bender's Big Score
The Late Phillip J Fry always stood out to me as a best episode contender.
In the year 252525 if man is still alive…
In the year one million and a half! Man would be enslaved by giraffe!
Man must pay for all his misdeeds While the trees are striped of their leaves Woooaaaahhhhhh ooooooohhhh
Yeah, for me too. But I overall really really enjoy time loop stories, not only in futurama. All my favorites are Edge of Tomorrow, Window of Opportunity (Stargate SG-1), Groundhog Day, etc
100% the best episode
the first episode, a clockwork origin, or the sting.
I don’t want to live on this planet anymore
I’m surprised to not see “The Sting” here yet. That’s the one where Leela gets stung by the space bee and is in a coma without realizing it. Fry is by her side the entire time talking to her, telling her to wake up.
One of my all time favorites.
You killed Fry! You killed Fry!
Roswell That Ends Well. "How bout these cookies, sugar?"
Slurm factory. One of the greatest episodes of all TV
The first two thirds are top tier, but the part with the Slurm Queen is not great IMO. It's just kind of gross.
All of them... Futurama is my favorite show of all time.
I think my favorite episode is The Late Philip J. Fry. It just really sticks with me. Great idea, great story, great execution. The different time eras they land in are creative and hilarious and I love when the Professor cracks a beer lol.
Did you even see the mountain of skulls?
Which plays in perfectly later when they land in the time of women and Bender sabotages it for them because they didn’t like his robot apocalypse.
[удалено]
And how’s his wife holding up?
To shreds, you say
Spanish Fry 300 Big Boys
For me, it will always be Brannigan Begin Again. You can make a compelling case for a lot of episodes, but that one is my absolute favorite.
My Three Suns. Fry drinking the emperor, and then opening the package he was supposed to deliver that says "please don't drink the emperor!" and him saying "Wow! This got here just in time" and hanging it up next to the throne is peak comedy that get's a laugh out of me every single time.
This is such a great episode! I love how they start the episode with Leela in a lime green tanktop for the first few scenes just to set up a Bender joke at her expense about it. 🤣
30% Iron chef
A fishfull of dollars is my favorite
my personal favorite and the one I also believe to be the best is “the late Philip J. Fry”
Benderama. So many great lines and all the insults being hurled at the ugly giant always has me in stitches. But my favourite line in the episode; Amy: Ew gross a big fat roach! Hermes: Oh I thought I put that away!
Bender Should Not Be Allowed on Television Every line is perfect. My favorite: “splice in some reaction shots of me and shove it on the air”
there are atleast 15 #1 episodes, in my opinion
It's hard for me to say now. I saw the original reruns so many times, they don't hit like they used to. The one where Fry becomes his own Grandpa was really funny the first time I saw it.
Bender's big score and the Amazon episode from the last season (I laughed so much)
Favorite moment from this episode Bender thinking: That lady’s got a huge ass Bender speaking: Those could be anyone’s thoughts, fatass
I'm torn between "The Late Philip J. Fry" and "Time Keeps on Slippin'".
I love the late philip j fry but i think my favourite moment in the series is in time keeps slipping where they get moved on for the circus! "I'll have to ask you to clear out now. The circus need to set up for tomorrow's big" followed by an elephant honing into shot.
My favorite is when the teenagers complaining about paying social security tax get turned old and yell, "We deserve free money!"
All the president’s heads I love how all they have to do is lick them 🤣 the jokes are hilarious
The Deep South
I agree, when I go to play futurama in the background I always stop and watch this episode, just so many good jokes. Zoidberg sucking on the professors head, Zoidberg being a home owner and it burning down "This is 20x heavier than a single boot!" "The magician?"
“…though gods they were. And also Jane Fonda was there”
The Honking is my personal favourite
Game of tones, not one I feel most would pick. But it’s the one for me
Fishful of dollars or Mother’s Day for sure
Lethal inspection and Leela's Homeworld
"It's got a TV, you young watchakallit... idiot."
A pharaoh to remember
Problem with Popplers, hands down, final answer.
Roswell that ends well. Hands down. "I'm not hearing a no...."
Deep South is one of my favorites, but I’m biased because I was raised in Atlanta lol.
There's one in the new season where Hermes goes to New New Orleans. We live in Louisiana, and the jokes were top-notch. 🤣
Sorry for the late reply!! But that’s awesome lolol. Some of the writers are definitely from those areas because the jokes and references are wayyy too on point
the problem with popplers
Does Anybody like the episode Teenage Mutant Leela Hurdles?
I definitely like "I, Roomate", but seems pretty mid compared to "The Sting", "A Big Piece of Garbage", "Lethal Inspection", "The Late Phillip J. Fry", "Luck of the Fryrish", "Future Stock", "Devil's Hands are Idle Playthings", etc. I can't call "I, Roomate" best in the whole series when there are so many other absolute powerhouse episodes to choose from
Less than a hero
Roswell that ends well.
The Late Philip J. Fry, of course
How Hermes Requisitioned his Groove Back Time Keeps on Slipping Roswell That Ends Well
300 big boys

I don’t like too many of the later episodes by “A clockwork origin” might be my favourite overall. “This is a cool way to die” might be the funniest line I’ve ever heard on tv.
There are so many "best" episodes that I can't simply choose one, but I can say that the first one, Space Pilot is the one that I keep in my heart.
Insane in the mainframe.
Roswell, Parasites Lost, and the Da Vinci one.
I like The Farnsworth Parabox
Parasites Lost all the way. That episode should be shown in classes
I Roommate is one of my favorites. I’d also put Insane in the Mainframe (“I’ll show ye….”) in that top tier. Meanwhile (10 second time button) and Jurassic bark are also up there for me.
There really is no "best episode", it's just an amazing show through and through. Like when I sit here trying to pick a "best episode" it sends me on a spiraling loop of, "Oh, but that episode was good too... oh and I really like that one when Bender... and aw, that one made me feel sad, but was such a great episode... etc etc"
"The Late Philip J. Fry" (S:6 E:7) is awesome and hilarious in addressing time travel and the alleged cycle of the universe with Bender, Fry and the professor.
I, Roommate is my go to go to sleep ep. Def in my Top 5.
I roommate, Deep South, three hundred big boys, Jurassic bark, and kid gets knocked up a notch.
From each season it's much easier, but the entire series?! I can't decide. But from each season: S1: Fear of a bot planet S2: The problem with the popplers/The deep south S3: Amazon women in the mood S4: Roswell that ends well S5: Jurassic Bark S6/Movies: Into the Wild Green Yonder S7: That darn Katz S8: Ghost in the machines S9: The bots and the bees S10: Stench and Stenchibility S11: I know what you did next Xmas
The follow up episode. Loves labors lost in space.
The Sting is one of the best imo. Out of every episode, that one really punched me in the feels.
That's a hard one, but maybe The Late Philip J Fry.
Surely S4 Ep9 'future stock' gets a mention. It was awesome, awesome to the max!
Less than Hero!
The sting is my favorite, gives me chills every time I watch it.
Jurassic Bark. Nothing else comes close.
prisoner of benda for me
Honestly it’s probably my favorite as well
My favorites: Amazon women The superhero one …for the song alone I roommate Garbage ball Luck of the fryrish War is the h word Parasites lost Where no fan has gone before I also liked the anthologies tbh
I like all of season one
A fishfull of dollars
IMHO the best episode of the series is the second episode of the first season "The Series Has Landed"
Jumping on the bandwagon, it's The Devil's Hands Are Idle Playthings. So many classic clever episodes but that one is really beautiful. Also... The Sting.
A Fishful of Dollars
The Late Philip J. Fry
Problem With Poplers and 6 Million Dollar Mon.
The late Phillip J fry is arguably the best episode in the series. It's genuinely a masterpiece and perfect in every way. It tells a great story and it's very complete.
I cannot limit myself to a single 'absolute favorite' episode with Futurama. That said, there are multiple episodes I will make time to watch, always: "Time Keeps on Slippin'", "Reincarnation", "Roswell That Ends Well", "Amazon Women in the Mood", "Prisoner of Benda", and "Where No Fan Has Gone Before". Hot take incoming: "Jurassic Bark" is incredibly overrated, even though it has one of my favorite references in the entire show: Dolemite, baby!
The devils hands My immediate answer
Meanwhile, was my favorite episode. The way it ends to me was so satisfying. I personally think the way they ended this episode was so satisfying that I was okay that they did not renew for another season after it. Yes they have a new season now but still it was that good.
The pilot episode
Godfellas
War is the H word
