I never realized until I became an adult how dark and depressing the core of Fry's life is. A man who hated his upbringing and felt so unneeded by those around him he saw being trapped in the future to be a blessing, not knowing until years later into his time in the future how much his family, friends, and dog missed him every day and regretted not telling him he mattered as much as they should've, and as a result his family probably thought he committed suicide off a bridge into water.
Fry is like the oxymoron of their universe. Everything around him and in his life really shouldn't be. He's his own grandpa for Christ's sake. He shouldn't even exist. But he does and somehow ends up in the future. That's why almost everything he tries to do doesn't work
When Fry first arrived to the future he thought no one would miss him. It wasn't until a few years later that he learned how much everyone missed and cared about him.
Fry has the most emotional moments in Futurama. The one thing I find the most heartbreaking, is when his own mom dreaming about his son. Just shows how she misses him. Also Fry and Leela’s growing old together is the most tender and sweetest moment I’ve seen.
@@klever...1 Nibbler did insert him but his mum would dream of Fry daily anyway! He just brought the future Fry's consciousness into his mother's dream so they can communicate but he was always in her dreams!
My favorite part is when fry said "wanna go around again" its better sweet that they wont remember anything but will get to experience everything all over again.
what makes fry so interesting is that he embodies the very things that makes futurama a sweet and funny show but at the same time what makes futurama a sad and emotionally gripping show. while all the characters show moments of this duality, fry represents it the most by far
Still remmber Seymour's story to this day one of my most vivid memories of Futurama, that, His nephew Philip and of course Fry and Lela's Hineymoon... These were all amazing moments that made the show so much deeper...
@@MauiWowieOwie And I understand what you are saying, that Dogs deserve us, but we don't deserve them. They are seriously extremely loyal. This is a perfect example of that.
This show never ceases to amaze me with its blend of emotional drama and silly comedy. Matt Groening and crew really showed their creativity in this series and it makes it endlessly rewatchable. Also, the new season is great. Can't wait for more.
Luck of the Fryish is one of my favorite episodes of any show ever. Such a great twist that just eats at your emotions. I've seen it quite a bit and I still tear up when it all unravels.
Same here, to me it’s the best episode of this series, every time I hear “Don’t you forget about me” on the radio I just get silent and remember the episode, great song added to a wonderful, beautiful scene and I tear up a bit, I can’t help it
agree. i've always like those stories where a person carried hard feelings for a long time but then they discover something new and it changes everything
@@Cheyenne.b.castilloIt's one of the most beautiful and poignant moments In TV History. My mom is gone, what I will give to hug her... One last time. Stay safe you, You, are Loved, and capable.
Probably the most underrated show. As I’ve gotten older these moments hit way harder. A true masterpiece of a series. Lucky to have watched this growing up.
the scene with fry’s mom is bar none the saddest thing i’ve ever seen in a cartoon. really makes you want to appreciate the little bit of life you get to spend with her. happy mother’s day everybody and tell your mom you love her if you can
If Futurama has taught me anything, it's that the future holds nothing but pain, but ... If your heart is full of love for your friends and family, you can make it through anything
Seymour reminds me of our family dog where everyone grew up and moved away. Only my father was there when it came time to put him down. He described how he had gotten distemper and when it came time to get him in the car, Toby just hung his head down the entire time. I will always regret not being there for his last days and especially at the vet for his last moments. He gave so much to the family over the years. It makes me angry and full of sadness that in our younger years when we feel we are too 'busy' for anything but our small world that we don't appreciate those around us. It's also hard realization how selfish I was in my younger days. You were loved despite our shortcomings, Toby, and still missed. Yep, for such a hilarious show it gets surprisingly deep and can hit the emotions unexpectedly.
Fry’s realizations and the writers depiction of life after he went into the cryofreezer are always so heart wrenching because of their close correlation with death. Fry is dead for an anyone knows in the year 2000 but the show so eloquently shows what impact Fry’s absence has on everyone in his life. Time and time again, Futurama showed how love is never perfect but it is always beautiful and for that it will forever be one of my favorite shows.
Leela in a coma, and her reaction to grief, is the example why so many turn to alcohol or hard drugs. Don't judge an addict. That could be you when you lose someone you care about.
Seymore's mission, Fry's reunion with his mom, Lars's origin, and Herme's secret were emotional AF... But I feel like Bender's fatherly sacrifice didn't get enough recognition by fans.
I hear you there. I can’t sing. And I can’t play a music instrument. I have what my old music teacher calls “stupid fingers”. With hands like mine, I’ll be lucky to master a belt buckle…” 😉
I love luck of the Fryrish, and Jurassic bark is a close second. The sting and Leela's homeworld hit a little different, but are also quite satisfying emotionally. The emotionally drive episodes that came after the move to comedy central felt to me too much like they were chasing the emotional punch of the other ones. I can't quite put my finger on it, but they didn't feel as genuine.
Futurama was the only show that made me cry as hard as I laughed. Truly great show that was always underrated. I was talking with a stranger about this show in the Currents Bar aboard the Disney Fantasy eight days ago. I find it funny that Adult Swim posted this with all the scenes we talked about on the same day we talked about it. Crazy!
If the show you're watching doesn't make you feel something, you will forget it the instant the network cancels it. That's what ties fans of disparate TV shows such as "Firefly," "Gravity Falls" and "Futurama" together. So: "Don't be sad that it's over, be happy that it existed."
the one where he dug up his nephew's grave made me cry a lot finding out thats his brother named his son in honour of fry made me ball my eyes out and the one where he's in his mum's dream got me crying even tho it was the second time i saw it.
Bender: You sure take after your old man. “I never knew my father” His last attempt at seeing if it’d spark something in his son to remember … sad .. but it’s not something you’d expect from bender .. him taking the child from the mom him trying to keep the child and him selflessly giving up his fatherhood to make his son happy at the cost of him not remembering him … this was a side of bender that I was happy to see ❤
When I was little I used to think the dog episode was the saddest thing ever. Now that I’m older that episode where he visits his mom in a dream hurts more every year
It breaks my heart to see fry's dog like that in his end days. They have not done justice to the dog 😢. I really wish he had a happy ending atleast in future.
I think the clover twist will always hit me the hardest because Yancy gave the clover to his own son named after his missing brother, and watched his son fulfill every dream Fry had. Yancy lived every day with pride and grief watching what should have been Fry’s life, but knowing his son was carrying a good life and a good legacy.
The thing about Philip’s nephew being named after him is that Yancy basically broke a lifelong family tradition to honor Philip. That’s how much he was missed. And that to me was what was truly heartbreaking.
Other moments were much more emotional but Hermes twist really caught me off guard because of all the main cast was the less flesh out characters and was mostly a comic relief
Lucky of Fryish and episode when Leela learns about her parents were really touching and both songs at the end of each episodes were amazing choice (Dont forget about me and Baby love child)
Good way to end this video, with the shows “First ending”. But of course Jurassic Bark is the most emotional, followed by in my opinion Game of Tones, with Fry’s mother dreaming about him.
Everytime I hear "Don't you forget about me," I think of Fry coming to the realisation that his brother loved him. Man, can't wait till I'm old enough to ways about stuff.
12 Times Futurama Caused Emotional Damage | Futurama | adult swim 1741pm 12.9.23 no idea why ch4 got rid of this... perhaps it wasn't perverted enough? p.s i think the old dude put he mail in the bin beneath the cardboard...
That Fry/ Leela bee episode really screwed me up years ago such a good episode. And Leela meeting her parents for the first time and the montage how they were thee for her while she grew up. Gawd 😭😭😭😭
The dog scene breaks me, I was away when my dog died from a heart murmur, and I was on FaceTime when my cat was put down and all I wanted was to pet them one time so they knew I was there.
What I don't get is whenever Fry went back in time, why didn't he try to go back to Seymour? Especially in the Brain Spawn episode. I know Lars did but still. He could've asked Nibbler to freeze him too
I never realized until I became an adult how dark and depressing the core of Fry's life is. A man who hated his upbringing and felt so unneeded by those around him he saw being trapped in the future to be a blessing, not knowing until years later into his time in the future how much his family, friends, and dog missed him every day and regretted not telling him he mattered as much as they should've, and as a result his family probably thought he committed suicide off a bridge into water.
WOW!!!
The dog knows where is, its his family that probably will never know
This is just how I feel to be honest, specially because I have anxiety since I have epilepsy.
Well said fam

About that I love when they come back to do everything again
Fry indeed has emotional trauma, however, his mom doesn't dream about him of her own accord, rather nibbler inserts Fry into her dream

the part where fry hug his mom made in her dream was the one that got me when i first saw that episode

I was so happy with Hermes getting another layer to him for the Inspector ep. That song was the cutest and sweetest.
Still remmber Seymour's story to this day one of my most vivid memories of Futurama, that, His nephew Philip and of course Fry and Lela's Hineymoon...
These were all amazing moments that made the show so much deeper...
Leela
A way to start to make everybody cry, Seymour!
Reminder, Seymour canonically lived his entire life with fry thanks to him going back in time
Want to cry more? It's based on a real story.
@@MauiWowieOwie Yep. Makes me think of when people say "We don't deserve dogs." I think of these stories.
@@henrywilson2136 yeah, I get the sentiment they are saying, but it is dumb. Dogs need companionship, they literally exist because of us.
@@MauiWowieOwie And I understand what you are saying, that Dogs deserve us, but we don't deserve them.
They are seriously extremely loyal.
This is a perfect example of that.
This show never ceases to amaze me with its blend of emotional drama and silly comedy. Matt Groening and crew really showed their creativity in this series and it makes it endlessly rewatchable. Also, the new season is great. Can't wait for more.
In fairness, it was a lot less Matt and a lot more David and the rest of the writers.

It's the only episode of TV that has ever made me cry.
Luck of the Fryish , Jurrasic Bark and Game of Tones are the Big 3
agree. i've always like those stories where a person carried hard feelings for a long time but then they discover something new and it changes everything
Yeah, caught me totally off guard,
Didn't see it coming, i did shed a coulpe of tears.
When Fry's mom asked him in her dream, what he wanted to talk about and all he did was hug her. That hit me so hard 😢
that scene guts me every time I cant even explain it to someone without tearing up
@@Cheyenne.b.castilloIt's one of the most beautiful and poignant moments In TV History.
My mom is gone, what I will give to hug her... One last time.
Stay safe you, You, are Loved, and capable.
The scene with Fry's mom always gets me. I have lost a few close family members and I love when I get to see them in my dreams
It's beautiful that he could have said anything, but a hug between them was enough to convey what they always wanted to.
Originally, they were going to do her in the dog episode, but it was too sad so they chose Seymour.
It’s absolutely one of if not the best Comedy Central episode they made.
Yep, that's the one that destroys me every time.
Probably the most underrated show. As I’ve gotten older these moments hit way harder. A true masterpiece of a series. Lucky to have watched this growing up.
they should had more seasons. fox treated this show badly
the scene with fry’s mom is bar none the saddest thing i’ve ever seen in a cartoon. really makes you want to appreciate the little bit of life you get to spend with her. happy mother’s day everybody and tell your mom you love her if you can
Fry's older brother scene with his son tears me up too...
If Futurama has taught me anything, it's that the future holds nothing but pain, but ... If your heart is full of love for your friends and family, you can make it through anything

My family dog was called Toby too 😢
Yeah so true
Toby is & forever will be with you. He may not be here physically, but his memory lives on through you. God bless stranger.
Seymour reminds me of my cat Boots.
She was 15.5 years old until I had to put her to "sleep" earlier this year.
Dammit, I’m not crying. You are.
For real though, the Seymour story always gets me. I miss you so much Snoop.
I am crying dammit, and you better be too
I hope the love outlasts the pain. Rip
@@talentedpigeon3296 thank you. They are both present and I don’t think either will ever go away.

Thank God the writers had some sort of heart and reunited Fry with Seymour in the movie
I did not know this
This show had better moments and stories than most of the other shows like it, very happy to see it has finally been brought back
Leela in a coma, and her reaction to grief, is the example why so many turn to alcohol or hard drugs. Don't judge an addict. That could be you when you lose someone you care about.
Lmao no. I've lost plenty and have had plenty of heart breaks. Never became and alcoholic or crackhead. Stop trying to normalize dumb choices.
Futurama is one of the best shows out there without a doubt.
I remember those episodes, and a part of me is glad I wasn't old enough to appreciate them. Straight tear jerkers (especially the first one).
Slurms Mackenzie, gone too soon. May he rest in peace
Seymore's mission, Fry's reunion with his mom, Lars's origin, and Herme's secret were emotional AF...
But I feel like Bender's fatherly sacrifice didn't get enough recognition by fans.
People like what they like. You can't hold it against people if they don't respond to things the same way you do. We're all different.
This show being able to blend comedy and sad moments so well is why it holds a special place in my heart
As a kid Frys oprea at the end always made me feel optimistic about being untalented or a loser.
I hear you there. I can’t sing. And I can’t play a music instrument. I have what my old music teacher calls “stupid fingers”. With hands like mine, I’ll be lucky to master a belt buckle…” 😉
Weird how the video keeps getting blurry around the saddest parts
The music they chose for some of these scenes was brilliant and definitely contributed to the emotional connection. Good stuff.
Seymour's story makes me cry every time I watch the Episode... And here I go crying again... Dammit.
It's brutal :(
A great funny show that had some seriously under rated great music and pulled the heart strings quite often.
It was episodes like these that made the show, something the new season is yet to hit me with
I love luck of the Fryrish, and Jurassic bark is a close second. The sting and Leela's homeworld hit a little different, but are also quite satisfying emotionally. The emotionally drive episodes that came after the move to comedy central felt to me too much like they were chasing the emotional punch of the other ones. I can't quite put my finger on it, but they didn't feel as genuine.
They went right for the jugular starting off with Seymour 😢
More like straight to your heart, through the jugular.
And end with the saddest death. 😢
"Please don't stop playing, Fry. I want to hear how it ends."
first episode fry: "all my friends and family are gone? WOOHOO!"
later season fry: *turns out everyone missed him and been left with emotional damage*
😭 No he didn't! 😭He didn't forget you!!😭 😭😭😭😭
Futurama was the only show that made me cry as hard as I laughed. Truly great show that was always underrated. I was talking with a stranger about this show in the Currents Bar aboard the Disney Fantasy eight days ago.

The one time that I hated Fry was when he underestimated Seymour's love for him.
Yeah dogs never forget their owners
man, this show has made me cry so many times.
😭 *How dare the creators of Futurama add such emotional moments that turn our eyes into waterfalls.* 😭
They are malicious genius

Same
I always cry in the game of tones episode where fry is in him moms dream
Bender saying "you're twice the 'The' he ever was." Will never not make me laugh
Bender and Hermes is really emotional as hell
I wouldn't call these moments emotionally damaging. I'd call them beautiful.
Bender: You sure take after your old man.
“I never knew my father”
His last attempt at seeing if it’d spark something in his son to remember … sad .. but it’s not something you’d expect from bender .. him taking the child from the mom him trying to keep the child and him selflessly giving up his fatherhood to make his son happy at the cost of him not remembering him … this was a side of bender that I was happy to see ❤
When I was little I used to think the dog episode was the saddest thing ever. Now that I’m older that episode where he visits his mom in a dream hurts more every year
It breaks my heart to see fry's dog like that in his end days. They have not done justice to the dog 😢. I really wish he had a happy ending atleast in future.
Therell never be scenes like these in futurama ever again
I just wish the modern Simpsons series could’ve followed the emotional moments.
There could be in season finale, who knows yet
@@lowdownpapaya7292 I doubt it, the new futurama doesn’t meet the same standards as the old one. Just like the simpsons
Seymour and his mothers dream, definition of pain.
It's Jurassic Bark every time. Don't detract from that.
They should’ve called it 11 times and scrapped the Slurms McKenzie one
It was memorable, but not particularly emotional
I think the clover twist will always hit me the hardest because Yancy gave the clover to his own son named after his missing brother, and watched his son fulfill every dream Fry had. Yancy lived every day with pride and grief watching what should have been Fry’s life, but knowing his son was carrying a good life and a good legacy.
SEYMOUR always get MY EMOTION OH MY EMOTION MY EMOTION
the one episode that still makes me cry too this day is leela finally meeting her parents 😢
I hated the way they died
Music was perfect for the ending as well...
Futurama is one of my favourite series because it's not afraid to give you episodes like this.
.
.
God this show was good it had so many heartfelt moments.
Love this show for this how it actually had care. the episode with his mom's dream and discovering Semores remains really hit home for me
Futurama is one of the fee animated shows to make me cry the song Baby Love Child is amazing
Futurama is a masterpiece
The thing about Philip’s nephew being named after him is that Yancy basically broke a lifelong family tradition to honor Philip. That’s how much he was missed. And that to me was what was truly heartbreaking.
Other moments were much more emotional but Hermes twist really caught me off guard because of all the main cast was the less flesh out characters and was mostly a comic relief
The heart in Futurama is unbelievable,there isn't a single other adult oriented series that is on the same level.
All of these scenes did not emotionally damage me. I simply had a good cry every time
21:30 that's actually how the series originally ended.
It baffles me that there are people who know The Simpsons but haven’t watched Futurama. It’s just a better show in every way.
They sure knew how to pick the music to go with some of those scenes
Fry finding out it’s his nephew not his brother makes me tear up now as an uncle myself.
21:01, What a perfect ending.
I cried hard with the dog episode. And I never cry when I watch tv.
"Almost" never...
Lucky of Fryish and episode when Leela learns about her parents were really touching and both songs at the end of each episodes were amazing choice (Dont forget about me and Baby love child)
Theory: Fry did love his family very much, after being frozen he just lived in denial; without it he would go mad with grief.
Good way to end this video, with the shows “First ending”. But of course Jurassic Bark is the most emotional, followed by in my opinion Game of Tones, with Fry’s mother dreaming about him.
Man, Futurama is a comedy show but if you think about it, Fry has such a dramatic background that perfectly fits for a sad movie.
Seymore always got me, but then I saw the dream of frys mom. That broke me.
The first one and the third one are my favorite ones.
So crazy how Fry only learned how much his family truly loved him after they're all gone 😭
Thank you, I needed to get that hard cry out of my system.
First on Fox, then Adult Swim, and finally Comedy Central. That's all we need.
Man, the writers could sure pick the right music to those scenes! What a ride! 😭😭😭😭
💯
Reasons why this show is the best!
Everytime I hear "Don't you forget about me," I think of Fry coming to the realisation that his brother loved him.
Man, can't wait till I'm old enough to ways about stuff.
14:59 Seymour meeting future fry warms my heart
Truly, who amongst us has not cried ugly tears over Slurms?
Much more so that Seymour, of course
If you wanna feel , i mean really feel seymour can do that to you
A part of me wishes they brought Seymour back in Jurassic bark. And it hurts even more now because i recently lost my dog this year.
This show has no right having so many meaningful and sad moments. Still, this show is a 10/10, the best Groening has made.
the story with fry's dog was the saddest one in the series I almost cried back then
Good old Futurama
12 Times Futurama Caused Emotional Damage | Futurama | adult swim 1741pm 12.9.23 no idea why ch4 got rid of this... perhaps it wasn't perverted enough? p.s i think the old dude put he mail in the bin beneath the cardboard...
That Fry/ Leela bee episode really screwed me up years ago such a good episode.
And Leela meeting her parents for the first time and the montage how they were thee for her while she grew up.
Gawd 😭😭😭😭
What I like the most is it really does end like it does in the devil's hands are idle play things. Meanwhile shows that.
The dog scene breaks me, I was away when my dog died from a heart murmur, and I was on FaceTime when my cat was put down and all I wanted was to pet them one time so they knew I was there.
I always thought that Slurms McKenzie would rather die than go to Bender's Party.
Anyone else start tearing up almost immediately?
20 years. Almost 20 years ago I saw it as a kid. Still remember every single of these moments.
What I don't get is whenever Fry went back in time, why didn't he try to go back to Seymour? Especially in the Brain Spawn episode. I know Lars did but still. He could've asked Nibbler to freeze him too
The Semor part made me cry as a kid
His mom, Seymour, his brother, and meanwhile. Why do I think this is a comedy? (Burst into tears)
The dog and the brother, after all these years still does it
