Just curious, I haven’t bought it yet, but I was just wondering what episodes are in this volume. In other words, what’s the last episode in the set? The one where Fry, Leela, and Bender are trapped on a planet with the Star Trek cast, or where Frey composes his opera about Leela? If this set only goes to the original final ending (the Star Trek one), does anyone know when or if the last season is being released? ---

_Futurama_ ran for four wonderful years. The last episode of the second production season (which is included on Futurama Volume 2) was _The Cryonic Woman_ (Fry unthaws his old girlfriend while working at the cryonics lab). Both _Where No Fan Has Gone Before_ (The ultimate Star Trek nerd traps our crew in a Star Trek reunion!) and _The Devil’s Hands are Idle Playthings_ (How can you write an opera for the one you love? Trade hands) were part of the fourth production season. That means there’s two more sets to go! When? That’s for Fox to decide. ---

I just want to chime in to say that the Futurama DVD sets are the BEST EVER!! The commentary is amazing! I can actually recognize most of the commentators by voice (David X. Cohen, Matt Groening, Billy West, John DiMaggio, and Rich Moore I can all identify, the others are usually just one timers specific to that ep., like the writer or director for it.) I want season three now! ---

Silentgoldfish, bender is closest to his real voice. ---

Bender’s one of the only voices he doesn’t do :). That’s John DiMaggio. ---

John DiMaggio sounds like Bender and Billy West sounds like Fry. ---

Damn, my bad haha. I meant the guy that does bender sounds like bender. I just got mixed up with the names. ---

Wait, maybe not. Maybe what Censored said is what I meant, I’m so confused. ---

> [@](#): > > Conisidering how soon after the first one this one came out, we probably won’t have to wait long. After all, it’s already been released in Europe! Apparently the first set sold far above expectations. So Fox decided to move up the release of the second set. Which means if we all buy this one, the next two will soon follow. And maybe, if we all buy the DVD’s and clap our hands together and say “I do believe in robots!”, there will someday be additional episodes made. ---

> [@](#): > > Apparently the first set sold far above expectations. So Fox decided to move up the release of the second set. I’m just doing my job 😉 Yay, season two! I just spent the last 24 hours watching way to much Futurama. I’ll have to give the commentaries a try, given their praise here. I have to admit, listening to people prattle over the show I’m watching hasn’t sounded too intriguing, but what the heck. ---

I just got mine today. I saw _A Clone of my Own_, one of the few episodes I haven’t seen. “Goodbye, cruel lamp!” ---

Mr. Bunny & I bought it Friday, and I think we watched every single episode this weekend. We now own full seasons of _Futurama_, _The Family Guy_, and every episode ever made of _The Tick_. Hell, even _I’m_ jealous of us! 😃
