I've been to the year 3000, not much has changed but they live in New New York.

From the moment the series aired in 1999, through seven seasons, four straight to DVD movies and two cancellations over two different networks, Futurama faced a struggle. With the Simpsons having enjoyed a handful of stellar seasons in the recent years, Matt Groening's second show was always going to be compared to his first.

While Futurama would always live in the shadow of, and eventually be outlived by the Simpsons, the futuristic show still managed to carve itself a strong fanbase, and continue on and off until 2013. The quality of the show may have dipped by the end, but the standard set by the show's time on Fox is undeniable.

Fry, Leela, and Bender, and the entire Planet Express crew's travels through space and time in the 31st century led to some incredible stories. From Leela bedding Zapp Brannigan, to Bender becoming a god, and Fry discovering his true importance to the universe, Futurama explored situations few others shows could.

But when was its peak according to the fans? With 124 episodes in its catalogue, there are bound to be some stronger than others, and there is no better way to see how they compare than the IMDb user rating system.
