    I watched it pretty often when it was on originally. I'll catch an episode once a week or so on cartoon network or whatever it's on these days.

    Good show. Never really caught on, though.

    Lots. I never liked it that much when it was actually airing, but discovered it "later on," and am now addicted. Always saw it as inferior to the Simpsons, but it's arguably funnier - they're able to do a lot more with it.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    I liked it too. It was a good change from the usual cartoons but had that simpson feel (since it was done by the same people). With five seasons there's enough of it to watch that re-runs don't get too in the way.

    Great show. I watch it on adult swim along with all of the other great shows. Family Guy, Robot Chicken, Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

    Don't cha be forgettin' Harvey Birdman...

    I still rank Brak right up there with ATHF.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Some really great stuff with that series. Fry's has the entire set on sale now and then. May pick it up later but cartoon network runs it all the time.

    The one with his dog that keeps waiting for him to come back always gets me. It's so sweet and sad.

    I love Futurama and the Simpsons. I get more enjoyment out of Futurama because I haven't seen most of them, unlike the Simpsons but its all funny.

    I LOVE Futurama, I watched the 2 episodes they showed twice every day last school year. The Simpsons now really isn't that funny to me but the older ones kick ****.

    "Future Stock" is a great episode with many awesome quotes:

    "Awesome, Awesome to the max."

    "I was having whiskey with Boesky and cookies with Milken."
    God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. - Romans 5:8
