We tuned in expecting jokes and space hijinks.

What we got… was Seymour.

This wasn’t just a cartoon episode. It was a punch to the soul.

No dialogue. No manipulation. Just one dog… waiting.

Futurama showed us that animated stories could hit harder than real life.

Some of us still aren’t over it.

    I’m sorry but “I’m naming you Philip J Fry, after my brother, who I miss every day” pans over to Fry’s childhood drawing that Yancy has held onto for decades isn’t that much nuance. If anything, the dog doesn’t say a word so you have to pull a lot more from your own imagination.
