The episode was fine to me. Writing is hard, I don't expect everything to be 'best of' material. I thought the meta was fine, the show is about being a corporate business run by a mad scientist who doesn't care about his employees... yet always comes back to them. Fry getting out of the suit was decent, fit with the Calculon style melodrama. With such a legacy, it's like new seasons of The Simpsons, how would you write it?
I thought the voices were fine. Marge SImpson, Julie Kavner, her voice has changed a lot since the start as voice actors I follow for a long time go... and I always notice the change in her voice... but it just seems real to me... I'm over age 50, and I know people whose voice has changed a lot from age 30 to 50.
Writing is definitely difficult! I couldn't do it. The voices were fine, I was just saying that it was pretty noticeable.
As for the legacy with new seasons/episodes and how I would write it.. well I don't think I would. It had a good run and I loved it. In my opinion, Futurama is just like King of the Hill, I'm not really sure it needs to come back because it already hit perfection many times.
