Tonight's episode of Futurama on Adult Swim was the second of the "what-if machine" episodes. The second question was asked by Fry, which was:

"What if life was more like a video game?"

The segment was absolutely hilarious. They made references to PacMan, Ms. Pacman, Space Invaders, Donkey Kong, Mario, the Nintendo 64, and a bunch of other ones that I am forgetting. I am glad to see that older video games are still getting some attention in modern, main-stream media.

This thread will need some direction, so firstly, are there any other fans of Futurama on the DP boards (and, more specifically, fans of this episode)? What did you like about this episode? Any comments? Secondly, what if life was more like a video game?

The second part of that question has probably been discussed, but I did a search for topics on this episode of Futurama and came up with nothing.

"Invaders! Possibly from Space!"

Fan of Futurama? Hell yeah! This is the show that replaced "The Simpsons" when that show ran aground.

Love this show to death.

Great show. So great, in fact, that we've covered this topic several times in the past. Let's continue there...
