‘Futurama’ Star Billy West Previews Season 7
To West, the key to Futurama’s success is not necessarily its laughter (though there is plenty of that), but the show’s heart. In season 7, “There’s a few things that happen that are very, very heartwarming and touching,” he explained, “and those are my favorites - the ones that evoke a feeling, like the one with Fry’s dog [the Emmy-nominated “Jurassic Bark”]. The importance of something like that, [that] you’re watching a cartoon and you became connected to it.” It’s something also found in tonight’s season premiere, “The Bots and the Bees,” which sees Bender deal with fatherhood in a surprisingly heartwrenching fashion.
