12 Times Futurama Caused Emotional Damage | adult swim

[@blueizumi]

I never realized until I became an adult how dark and depressing the core of Fry's life is. A man who hated his upbringing and felt so unneeded by those around him he saw being trapped in the future to be a blessing, not knowing until years later into his time in the future how much his family, friends, and dog missed him every day and regretted not telling him he mattered as much as they should've, and as a result his family probably thought he committed suicide off a bridge into water.

[@blackwater2192]

WOW!!!

[@sdbzfan1]

The dog knows where is, its his family that probably will never know

[@militantpacifist4087]

This is just how I feel to be honest, specially because I have anxiety since I have epilepsy.

[@1averagebro]

Well said fam

[@quinceyb921]

Fry is like the oxymoron of their universe. Everything around him and in his life really shouldn't be. He's his own grandpa for Christ's sake. He shouldn't even exist. But he does and somehow ends up in the future. That's why almost everything he tries to do doesn't work

[@Mankey619]

Fry has the most emotional moments in Futurama. The one thing I find the most heartbreaking, is when his own mom dreaming about his son. Just shows how she misses him. Also Fry and Leela’s growing old together is the most tender and sweetest moment I’ve seen.

[@m3dv3ga20]

About that I love when they come back to do everything again

[@klever...1]

Fry indeed has emotional trauma, however, his mom doesn't dream about him of her own accord, rather nibbler inserts Fry into her dream

[@StarkIller-df7gw]

​@@klever...1 Nibbler did insert him but his mum would dream of Fry daily anyway! He just brought the future Fry's consciousness into his mother's dream so they can communicate but he was always in her dreams!

[@doctorplague6967]

When Fry first arrived to the future he thought no one would miss him. It wasn't until a few years later that he learned how much everyone missed and cared about him.

[@noahdean9685]

A way to start to make everybody cry, Seymour!

[@superanimeniac]

Reminder, Seymour canonically lived his entire life with fry thanks to him going back in time

[@MauiWowieOwie]

Want to cry more? It's based on a real story.

[@henrywilson2136]

@@MauiWowieOwie Yep. Makes me think of when people say "We don't deserve dogs." I think of these stories.

[@MauiWowieOwie]

@@henrywilson2136 yeah, I get the sentiment they are saying, but it is dumb. Dogs need companionship, they literally exist because of us.

[@henrywilson2136]

@@MauiWowieOwie And I understand what you are saying, that Dogs deserve us, but we don't deserve them. They are seriously extremely loyal. This is a perfect example of that.

[@thegameplayer125]

what makes fry so interesting is that he embodies the very things that makes futurama a sweet and funny show but at the same time what makes futurama a sad and emotionally gripping show. while all the characters show moments of this duality, fry represents it the most by far

[@grindcoremaniac]

This show never ceases to amaze me with its blend of emotional drama and silly comedy. Matt Groening and crew really showed their creativity in this series and it makes it endlessly rewatchable. Also, the new season is great. Can't wait for more.

[@Chiefs_Fan_91]

Fry's older brother scene with his son tears me up too...

[@savagefist1029]

Seymour reminds me of our family dog where everyone grew up and moved away. Only my father was there when it came time to put him down. He described how he had gotten distemper and when it came time to get him in the car, Toby just hung his head down the entire time. I will always regret not being there for his last days and especially at the vet for his last moments. He gave so much to the family over the years. It makes me angry and full of sadness that in our younger years when we feel we are too 'busy' for anything but our small world that we don't appreciate those around us. It's also hard realization how selfish I was in my younger days. You were loved despite our shortcomings, Toby, and still missed. Yep, for such a hilarious show it gets surprisingly deep and can hit the emotions unexpectedly.

[@theoelliott5944]

My family dog was called Toby too 😢

[@daniapfel2825]

Yeah so true

[@DevDabs420Official]

Toby is & forever will be with you. He may not be here physically, but his memory lives on through you. God bless stranger.

[@BillK.1973]

Seymour reminds me of my cat Boots. She was 15.5 years old until I had to put her to "sleep" earlier this year.

[@huh5950]

Still remmber Seymour's story to this day one of my most vivid memories of Futurama, that, His nephew Philip and of course Fry and Lela's Hineymoon... These were all amazing moments that made the show so much deeper...

[@daniapfel2825]

Leela

[@HeroJulian]

the part where fry hug his mom made in her dream was the one that got me when i first saw that episode

[@ty9154]

The scene with Fry's mom always gets me. I have lost a few close family members and I love when I get to see them in my dreams

[@Vanom.]

It's beautiful that he could have said anything, but a hug between them was enough to convey what they always wanted to.

[@TheRealFry2024]

Originally, they were going to do her in the dog episode, but it was too sad so they chose Seymour.

[@KegOfMeat]

It’s absolutely one of if not the best Comedy Central episode they made.

[@SuhxToBYou]

Dammit, I’m not crying. You are. For real though, the Seymour story always gets me. I miss you so much Snoop.

[@Flarflenugen]

I am crying dammit, and you better be too

[@abelgonzalez158]

When Fry's mom asked him in her dream, what he wanted to talk about and all he did was hug her. That hit me so hard 😢

[@Chiefs_Fan_91]

Seymour's story makes me cry every time I watch the Episode... And here I go crying again... Dammit.

[@justinhaynes2438]

If Futurama has taught me anything, it's that the future holds nothing but pain, but ... If your heart is full of love for your friends and family, you can make it through anything

[@nascarf50]

This show had better moments and stories than most of the other shows like it, very happy to see it has finally been brought back

[@Skreamies]

Futurama is one of the best shows out there without a doubt.

[@doslover]

Weird how the video keeps getting blurry around the saddest parts

[@TCC180]

I love luck of the Fryrish, and Jurassic bark is a close second. The sting and Leela's homeworld hit a little different, but are also quite satisfying emotionally. The emotionally drive episodes that came after the move to comedy central felt to me too much like they were chasing the emotional punch of the other ones. I can't quite put my finger on it, but they didn't feel as genuine.

[@caseyhamm4292]

the scene with fry’s mom is bar none the saddest thing i’ve ever seen in a cartoon. really makes you want to appreciate the little bit of life you get to spend with her. happy mother’s day everybody and tell your mom you love her if you can

[@hyicrotai9801]

As a kid Frys oprea at the end always made me feel optimistic about being untalented or a loser.

[@princessmarlena1359]

I hear you there. I can’t sing. And I can’t play a music instrument. I have what my old music teacher calls “stupid fingers”. With hands like mine, I’ll be lucky to master a belt buckle…” 😉

[@FrostyMeerkat]

Slurms Mackenzie, gone too soon. May he rest in peace

[@camarykaren]

A great funny show that had some seriously under rated great music and pulled the heart strings quite often.

[@la.lalisa1118]

the one where he dug up his nephew's grave made me cry a lot finding out thats his brother named his son in honour of fry made me ball my eyes out and the one where he's in his mum's dream got me crying even tho it was the second time i saw it.

[@lukeshapiro9813]

Probably the most underrated show. As I’ve gotten older these moments hit way harder. A true masterpiece of a series. Lucky to have watched this growing up.

[@leatherDarkhorse]

SEYMOUR always get MY EMOTION OH MY EMOTION MY EMOTION

[@summertime6785]

😭 *How dare the creators of Futurama add such emotional moments that turn our eyes into waterfalls.* 😭

[@daniapfel2825]

They are malicious genius

[@Otokichi786]

If the show you're watching doesn't make you feel something, you will forget it the instant the network cancels it. That's what ties fans of disparate TV shows such as "Firefly," "Gravity Falls" and "Futurama" together. So: "Don't be sad that it's over, be happy that it existed."

[@Pepandas]

It was episodes like these that made the show, something the new season is yet to hit me with

[@DHAdArchivez]

Bender and Hermes is really emotional as hell

[@vanhattfield8292]

The music they chose for some of these scenes was brilliant and definitely contributed to the emotional connection. Good stuff.

[@-Jest3r-]

Therell never be scenes like these in futurama ever again

[@Mankey619]

I just wish the modern Simpsons series could’ve followed the emotional moments.

[@lowdownpapaya7292]

There could be in season finale, who knows yet

[@-Jest3r-]

@@lowdownpapaya7292 I doubt it, the new futurama doesn’t meet the same standards as the old one. Just like the simpsons

[@TheMulToyVerse]

They should’ve called it 11 times and scrapped the Slurms McKenzie one It was memorable, but not particularly emotional

[@BharathKotari]

It breaks my heart to see fry's dog like that in his end days. They have not done justice to the dog 😢. I really wish he had a happy ending atleast in future.

[@autisticcommando86]

I remember those episodes, and a part of me is glad I wasn't old enough to appreciate them. Straight tear jerkers (especially the first one).

[@Koldchillz410]

I wouldn't call these moments emotionally damaging. I'd call them beautiful.

[@JasonBradley-wz4eb]

Futurama is a masterpiece

[@jaidyncook9128]

the one episode that still makes me cry too this day is leela finally meeting her parents 😢

[@DigiRangerScott]

I hated the way they died

[@vanhattfield8292]

Music was perfect for the ending as well...

[@AcidAroma]

Good way to end this video, with the shows “First ending”. But of course Jurassic Bark is the most emotional, followed by in my opinion Game of Tones, with Fry’s mother dreaming about him.

[@macko4042]

They sure knew how to pick the music to go with some of those scenes

[@andresrios9855]

21:01, What a perfect ending.

[@MrDuckyJones]

So crazy how Fry only learned how much his family truly loved him after they're all gone 😭

[@MauiWowieOwie]

21:30 that's actually how the series originally ended.

[@GotNoPlanB]

Good old Futurama

12 Times Futurama Caused Emotional Damage | Futurama | adult swim 1741pm 12.9.23 no idea why ch4 got rid of this... perhaps it wasn't perverted enough? p.s i think the old dude put he mail in the bin beneath the cardboard...

[@bradleyholmes7687]

All of these scenes did not emotionally damage me. I simply had a good cry every time

[@jorgepena155]

I cried hard with the dog episode. And I never cry when I watch tv.

[@vanhattfield8292]

"Almost" never...

[@ncognito_afterdark]

The dog and the brother, after all these years still does it

[@militantpacifist4087]

The first one and the third one are my favorite ones.

[@000mjd]

Other moments were much more emotional but Hermes twist really caught me off guard because of all the main cast was the less flesh out characters and was mostly a comic relief

[@KegOfMeat]

Fry finding out it’s his nephew not his brother makes me tear up now as an uncle myself.

[@pickles_mcgickle6583]

It’s just…the show is so good. Like so dumb and funny then suddenly not dumb at all and either heart breaking or heart warming

[@alexmendez9627]

Futurama really hit hard with these episodes. “Jurassic Bark” was the saddest TV episode I’ve ever seen (on par with the end of Toy Story 3) 😭

[@keynanmartinez]

Reasons why this show is the best!

[@adriancontreras1880]

Seymore always got me, but then I saw the dream of frys mom. That broke me.

[@screamingphoenix8113]

Ill never forgive the executives at Fox for trying to kill this show at every step of the way.

[@daniapfel2825]

Me too

[@MrSeekerOfPeace]

I always thought that Slurms McKenzie would rather die than go to Bender's Party.

[@manhwafanatic]

It baffles me that there are people who know The Simpsons but haven’t watched Futurama. It’s just a better show in every way.

[@andresrios9855]

First on Fox, then Adult Swim, and finally Comedy Central. That's all we need.

[@HoangNam-j8j]

And even have the ability to travel back in time any time he wants❤❤❤

[@ryankurama2680]

This show has no right having so many meaningful and sad moments. Still, this show is a 10/10, the best Groening has made.

[@Yodiac1]

Lucky of Fryish and episode when Leela learns about her parents were really touching and both songs at the end of each episodes were amazing choice (Dont forget about me and Baby love child)

[@andresrios9855]

But this is what made it so great.

[@callumbaurley716]

What I like the most is it really does end like it does in the devil's hands are idle play things. Meanwhile shows that.

[@DVeritas]

Me: I can take this without tearing. Video not even 2 minutes in Me: Seymour nvr stopped thinking abt you Fry!! 😭

[@killeing]

Sure, I've finally forced myself to repress these emotionally damaging moments after ten years of torment and finally got through it, so GO AHEAD AND START IT ALL UP AGAIN ADULT SWIM!!!!!!!

[@screwymatt]

Thank you, I needed to get that hard cry out of my system.

[@huh8662]

The story of Fry's dog breaks me every time.

[@annnnnndrey]

Stopped before 8 minutes ... sorry but I don't think I can handle this much emotion atm.

[@BanjominWalker]

You know what I miss the most about Futurama's original run? In those years this emotional stuff was not the core of the show. The core of the show was that it was FUNNY. Fry is irreverent about being in the future and everyone else has the same attitude because that future is normal to them. Those characters in wacky sci-fi situations made a really funny show. After the movies when it got picked up by CC, and ever since then, the show just lurches from sappy moment to sappy moment with lazy pop culture references-as-jokes. I have laughed a few times watching the Hulu revival, but mostly sad.

[@christian_craig_music]

Reliving trauma? Why not?

[@matthewalvarez3442]

7:39 she said it. The name of the episode she said it

[@Bjrn-nv3ie]

Fry just wants to show Leela how much he loves her but he can’t express it properly. After he eats a gas station bathroom egg salad sandwich, Fry is infected with a colony of parasitic worms that make him smarter and stronger. These worms made him able to express himself properly with Leela. He learned how to play the Holophone under the influence of the worms which really won Leela over, but after learning the parasites have been altering his mind and body, he removes them from his body for fear of Leela only liking Fry because of them. Many episodes later, we hear Fry practicing the Holophone again but terribly. He and Bender go to a teacher who tells them Fry is unteachable. Convinced his hands are just too slow to keep up, Fry makes a deal with the Robot Devil to trade hands with a random robot (that ends up being the Devil himself). Now equipped with hands that can keep up, Fry writes an opera for Leela but the Robot Devil schemes and ruins the opera, ultimately getting his hands back. Fry tries to play the Holophone again using his original hands but is terrible again and the audience exits the arena, except for Leela who sits patiently waiting for him to finish his song about the two of them together.

[@Bjrn-nv3ie]
