kino nephew and brotherly love > muh dog

Because Fries dog waited for him to return until he died and Doug Funnie went on to have a life and a kid and was a prick.

the bee one where Leela trips balls is the best

Because the human story was realer and sadder, and those of the s word persuasion have bad relationships with their families and don't relate to the themes of forgiveness and loyalty which the brother episode has.
A dog's loyalty is cheaper, and along with its life is far cheaper to lose than a human life or human relationship. The "stakes" of the dog episode were therefore far lower, less edgy and more consumer-friendly.
Even leaving aside that a dog's loyalty matters less than a brother's love, all that was "lost" in the dog story was that Fry never knew just how much the dog cared for him, and the dog never got over his master's disappearance. If Fry's brother's episode had a "bad ending", it would have been depressing for Fry never to realise how much his brother loved him, and horrifying if Fry found out his brother did hate him.
The part plebs don't connect with is that Fry's brother had to make a choice whether to love his brother or not, and he did. A dog's instinctual loyalty to its master is less significant, and even if he had given up on Fry it would have been a positive thing. But because they don't love their own families, and love the dumb loyalty of their "fur babies", they ignore the single best futurama episode.

Why can't you just enjoy both you spergs

t. doesnt have a brother

The sad twist was less obvious with the dog.

Because I have a bad relationship with my brother but I love my dog.

The series finale is the most kino episode

only the audience knows this. Fry never actually discovers anything new about his dog like he does with his nephew

S

need

It's not about enjoy but about prefer. Dog episode is good, but the way people gush about the dog episode but pass over the brother episode reveals a lot about them.

Only because it doesn't rely on new information but on Fry making a choice, and despite being well-intentioned, is the "wrong" one from the perspective of what the dog wants.

Pleb.

It's all retconned in one of the movies though isn't it? The Fry from the future Lars, lives his life in Old New York as Fry. So the dog lives with that Fry and was never left on its own due to Lars travelling back to live our Fry's life.

You're onions if you think a pet matters more than your family, or human beings in general even.

Because soulless redditors feel more sympathy with their epic heckin doggos than their own family members
The sadness of the dog episode is fucking stupid anyway, it’s only sad because of a ‘GOTCHA ITS SAD NOW’ moment where with almost no build up it turns out that the dog lived another decade so fry decides to respect his later years and not bring him back but PSYCHE AGAIN the dog waited for fry all that time, heh bet you’re sad now
The brother episode is better, of course Phillip and yancy loved each other all along, of course he missed him

..I'm "Onions"? HAHAHAHAHAHA you fucking newfag you didn't realize Onions was word filtered to "Onions" in 2012? Way to make a fool of yourself.

except his brother only forgave him because he disappeared. being mad at someone and then some life threatening event happens that puts things into perspective and makes you let go of conflicts and forgive someone is peak cliche.

huh?

Actually yes I think that's the current canon.

Nice post Socrates.

wtfffff

I never really liked the Fry/Leela thing, because he was a simp who thought he could "be nice" to Leela into liking him.
As a comedic thing for narrative purposes, fine, but it's not really something that building an emotional appeal around works for, like the brother and dog episodes. It's like the simpsons where the most saccharine heartstring tugging episodes are the ones where Lisa's a spoiled brat and sociopathically tries to emotionally bully attention and grand displays from her family members under the claim of "not loving them anymore".

Joke's on you summerfag, I typed out O N I O N S because it's what you are, and for confirmation you've revealed you think anyone who bothers with the word filter is more newfag than you. baka desu senpai

Based if you mean the og season finale with the opera when the show was first cancelled
Cringe if you mean the time stop one

Do you love your sibling(s)?

fucking this. fuck his asshole brother. asshole got a life and his son reaped the rewards of the assholeness (so did the father). made a name for themselves in history for all time.

>loving family more than pets is onions
This is the opposite of true, go back

no matter how many times i watch the lars episode, i never truly understand the whole timeline/clone thing. im close, but i just dont fully get it

PROFESSOR
LAVA
HOOOOOT

Because dogs are doggos, some are puppers, and others may even be pupperinos. There are corgos and clouds, fluffers and floofs, woofers and boofers. The chunky ones are thicc, and the thin ones are long bois. When they stick out their tongues, they're doing a mlem, a blep, a blop. They bork. They boof. Once in a while they do each other a frighten.

That's why.

go sneed yourself

Because redditors outnumber normies and redditors love doggos.

i prefer season 11 episode 5 myself

I agree with it but it does sound like a Socrates quote

Because Adam fucks dogs

Nice.

because it was on the original run.

The original always stays alive, the one in the “new” timeline will emit doom radiation and die.
Lars died because Fry traveled back in time and pissed off an earlier version of himself. That earlier version became Lars.

So was Luck of the Fryish, retard.

Futurama had some seriously heavy shit, even though it was comedy.

based intelligent man dabbing on muh furbaby soimales and cat ladies

Sneed?

Opera episode

the show eventually ruined the dog episode with the newer run time travel stories. they probably ruined the brother thing as well but who knows. the show was shit after the original run.

you do know theres another season coming up right?

Bender's Big Score was the best episode of the series, though
