    Maybe it's just me but, I don't get why futurama is popular. I don't get why any of the comedy animated shows are even cloe to popular. They very rarely make me laugh and it seems to be more "Well theres nothing better to watch" than "wow! I must catch it this week" as other series (like Doctor Who for example) bring out in me.

    So can someone explain to me the appeal of these shows or are they just drivel for the masses with the odd geek joke throw in to keep us happy? It seems nothing ever changes and what does change is instantly ignored, which really gets my goat. One week Lisa will be super smart and a veggie and the next week suddenly she's as dumb as Bart and eating a pork chop. So WTF?

    Someone please explain to me how this sort of thing is more popular than something with a real plot or something which is really funny?

    Not trolling, I just don't get it.
