| | DVD Verdict Review - Futurama: Volume One |
 | | On December 31st, 1999, the world waited with bated breath (which smells like cabbage, or so I've heard) to see if we'd all be able to wake up for January 1st, 2000. |
 | | Despondent, he sat down to eat the pizza and imbibe the beers meant for one "I.C. Weiner." At the stroke of midnight, he managed to topple over in his chair and land in a fully functional (not to mention, apparently fully self-contained) cryogenics tube, which sealed his fate for 1000 years. |
 | | It manages to skewer 20th/21st century technology, have a nearly environmental message, and utilize nearly the best celebrity cameo of the season (though not to the dizzying heights of the Gore/Nichols/Gygax triad of season two), all in one potent episode. |
