Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The season 4 episode "Jurassic Bark" features a flashback to the cryogenic room from "Space Pilot 3000". On its initial airing observant viewers noticed that Nibbler made a brief appearance during the flashback that was not in the original scene. This was added to maintain continuity with the then unaired episode "The Why of Fry". "Space Pilot 3000" was then modified for syndication and DVD to reflect these changes. In this modified form, Nibbler is visible under the table in all episodes featuring the cryogenic room, with the exception of "Anthology of Interest I" where the scene is shown during a hypothetical scenario where Fry does not fall into the tube. more

a bittersweet note, 26 July 2006
9/10
Author: firnthoronwen from United States

Futurama is of course a great comic series. But this episode shows more than any other how it can strike a bittersweet, serious note as well with its spin on the familiar flashback of Fry's last day in the 20th century. This time, instead of seeing that Fry's coming to the future was not entirely as it appeared in the first episode, ("The Why of Fry" season 4) we get to see another aspect of his life that was left behind--his faithful dog Seymour. As the episode unfolds we learn what happened to Seymour after Fry was frozen...and what Fry decides to do when his fossilized remains are recovered in the future.

I think the song that's played in the last scene is perfectly chosen--and I came to IMDb to find out who sings it. I couldn't find that information here, but in case anybody else is wondering I found it on Wikipedia--"'I Will Wait For You' from The Umbrellas of Cherbourg as sung by Connie Francis, which writer Eric Kaplan's parents played and sang on the piano while he was a child."
