    Has anyone checked this out on Netflix? Kind of weak IMO

    Yeah I'm underwhelmed too. Not bad, but a step below Futurama.

    I've watched the first 2 eps so far. I slowly warmed to it towards the end, so will definitely keep watching.

    I actually kinda like it. But I'm also someone that thinks Futurama was total crap

    All look like Bart.

    I think some Futurama's characters do look different enough.

    opening song is just awful. That's ill I've seen so far.

    Futurama's first season sucked. So did the Simpsons. Takes awhile for these shows to find their groove.

    I watched a few episodes. Honestly, it seemed like the 1970's drug addled cartoon that Groening always wanted to do. Sort of a 'watch' while I do other things show.

    Agree on Simpson's (I hated the 1st season and still do) but I liked Futurama right out of the gate. I saw the first couple of this new show and haven't been impressed at all.

    Is it an ongoing story or can I just pick it up in the 2nd season hoping it improves like The Simpsons did?

    They have an ongoing story. It's meh

    I think would improve when you know the characters more, who aren't instantly likeable. Makes the mean Futurama-like jokes funnier.
