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.

This episode did not make me want to walk on sunshine.

Although the movie where Lars takes care of Seymour kinda makes this ending a little more hollow.

Facts. That Lars twist softened the blow a little—but didn’t fully patch the trauma. It’s like putting a Band-Aid on a hole in time.

I felt it was a bad choice. It cheapened the soul-crushing ending.
