BWBB had a lot more of the classic Futurama wit and charm, plus it gave ample face time to a lot of the popular supporting characters who got short changed in BBS. Kif, Calculon, Zapp Brannigan and Wernstrom! for example all got a pretty good amount of screen time.

Anyone who is the slightest fan of Futurama would do well to check this one out.
Speaking of Bender's Big Score, I found that time-travel plot confusing, which I guess was probably sort of the point. Then again, I found the time-travel plot in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure fairly confusing as well. I think maybe my brain can't handle anything more than the most linear plot possible. I still can't really keep Harry Potter's straight.

If Fry and Leela don't get together by the end of all this I'll probably have an aneurysm.
