Critique
The series continues to be a cultural reference for modern audiences, even though it has been rebooted several times, characters and location are still relevant, the original voice cast from 2000 the ramins. Worst episode: "Wicked Human", even though the opposition between science and religion is still present in the year 3000+ humanity seems impeded in their capabilities and are easily subjugated, which makes no sense given that anyone living more than a week in that era can easily surmount the challenges proposed. Best episode: "The White Hole", Futurama continues to excel in their scientific propositions and this episode is no exception, the cosmic frontier is once again surmounted by proposing solutions that are still just a theory in today's age.
Conclusion
The Season 13 includes a variety of episodes that have all the classic elements of the series like the romance between Fry and Leela, the rigid bureocratic mindset of Hermes, the scientific and brilliant mind of Farnsworth, the humble lifestyle of Zoidberg, the family life of Amy and the extravagant lifestyle of Bender. The season includes a breakthorough in the development of the series, when Mankind and the Universe face challenges that are beyond their capabilities, usually the technological advancements of the year 3000+ are enough, however they have to overcome the challenges imposed by "Chronotones" once again.
