Be honest with me, did you guys get chatgpt to write this episode? The whole idea, the characters, the dialogues, the jokes, the action scenes, all felt old and as cliche as it could get. Everything felt out of place. When the song started on a supposedly emotional part of the story, it felt so forced. I remembered the s01e06 episode when Look on Down From the Bridge played, how shocking that scene felt, like a slap to the face. This time, it was a slap to the face as how bad everything was. As if a group of people had tried, under mortal threat, to just throw up some script and get it over with.
Bender: Any idiot can be a TV writer.
Calculon: Many are.
Ironically, this bit at 16:35 best explains this episode. The jokes are cliché, slapstick, and pointless (like Farnsworth cutting Leela's ponytail out of nowhere and then wearing it; or Leela pushing back Bender's hand and it randomly swings to hit Zoidberg; as if it's a children's cartoon) and at least for me, they all fall full flat. It's as if a group of writers are desperately trying to mimic what the show was like in its glory days, but really don't have a clue. They've made a checklist of the kind of jokes to squeeze in for each character, and that's how they've made what is, in my opinion, the worst episode since the very beginning of the show.
The timing of the jokes is off sometimes by half a second or a third, but that's enough to make it look forced and enough to show that the director's have lost their touch.
In the end, the most ironic bit is Fry's words at 22:45: Don't reboot a show if the quality is not gonna be there.
(To the writers: do this if you've been taken against your will and need to be rescued ✊✋)

There may have been 3 or 4 films in my life that I have watched on double-speed just to get through, and this is one of them. I'm a serious fan of sci-fi, but this is absolute bs-fi.
The story and characters, the developments, are every bit as cliche as they could be. Story development doesn't even try to be rational. From the overnight miracle drug which also teaches the apes overnight years worth of learning, to the "hollywood villain" drug company CEO and shelter workers. To the whole hollywood-silly way they worked, to the hollywood-cliche sets and props, everything was overwhelmingly tasteless. Today, even in early days of AI era in 2024, if you ask ChatGPT to write a scenario for this film and direct it, it would probably do a better job.
