I can't understand what everybody sees in this episode. Most reviews acknowledge that it wasn't very funny, no arguments there. But what was so great about the story either? Don't get me wrong, I'm all in favour of a nice moving story, even if it means sacrificing some humour value. I just don't see what was moving about this. Possibly the most boring episode in the series, and definitely in the bottom 5.

I have to say that to date, this is my favourite Futurama episode. I'm not always an easily moved person, but watching Luck Of The Fryrish rever fails to bring a tear to my eye. This episode definetly stands out, with the subtlety of the flashbacks handing us all of the important information while we continue to watch Fry's foolish quest to be rich, first man on mars, dead and buried, etc., and leaving us totally undefended against the emotional ending (in many ways, I find it similar to Parasites Lost). It's good to see that an episode can rely on more than just a string of jokes, and I admire a writer willing to go out on a limb in such a series like this. My only disapointment is that the Breakfast Club song doesn't last for the entire end credits. I'd happily give this 6 out of 5, but the page script doesn't allow for that.

Great episode my favorite to date, one of the reasons futurama is better than the simpsons, the stories have plots and meaning and has sensible endings, one of the best endings

When a comedy makes you cry it's probably a damm good one ( or you are in a really bad mood )

Awesome episode. I was long awaiting another emotional episode of Futurama, and this one pulled it off great. 5 Stars.

*Shiver* What was that Hair robot thing. Very creepy. I was suprised that Leela went a long with the grave robbing but maybe like Bender she does it regularly.

Really excellent, there was some great character development and emotion here. Definitely one of the top 5 Futurama episodes ever in my book. Like a lot of people said, it's not the funniest episode, but the ending completely swerved me (took me by surprise). Not that Futurama isn't still really good, but I wish there were more episodes like this. Also, the ending song choice was perfect.
