spoilerDamn they got down to business right away! Loved the humor. Love the story, Cheezy streaming refs went on a little long. Fry, Leela and the Professors Voicing had a few rough spots that wouldn't have happened in the last incarnation, it honestly kinda reminded me of some of the early voicing in season 1. John DiMaggio's performance was flawless. I love that they kinda mixed in a small anthology, had most of the people make cameos.

Nixons first aroo left me disappointed

yeah that was one too I forgot it. None of it was bad, there were just words here and there that were like voices cracking.

At 10:49 Leela breaks out a Grandma voice saying "maybe we can get the to reboot it as a streaming series" but the rest of the episode, she sounds like the 20-30 something she always sounds like.

After a rewatch, I don't think that Farnsworth and Fry have any specific issues but the energy in the cadence of their speech is lower than it used to be, but hell they are both 70 years old. There were 60 in the previous season.

Another interesting thing, when fry signs up, you can see his age entry in his eyeballs. 7077. I wonder why they singled that out to show....

Yeah it wasn't bad or anything. Just not the jowl movement i've come to expect from nixon.

I assumed it was 1077. Same as his banking pin number and the price of a cheese pizza.
