I'm guessing that after its release the suicide rate in countries with television rose a good 9001%. It was seriously the saddest thing I've ever seen on TV, including serious drama where people's lives fall completely apart.
Maybe you just didn't like their choice of music.CannibalRobots said:
Which is actually a problem I have with a lot of shows. They try to pull off a sad, emotional moment and all I can think is 'God, this music is awful.'
Same thing on Scrubs when they killed off a long-running minor cast member.
pretty much, I remember when I first watched it,I was always waiting for the episode to become as humourous as the other. Never thought futurama of all things could evoke such sadness as it did. I wonder if people who have never had dogs find it as emotional, not knowing first hand the connection that is created if you spend a lot of time with your companion.CannibalRobots said:
Damn you, I'd tearing up just thinking about it!
Though I thought Bender's Big Game ruined that episode for me. Maybe it was the show giving me a pat on the back for caring about the characters, but I felt it ruined the impact of what made that episode awesome. It's been an episode I love to point to to show why Futurama is not only NOT the Simpsons, but also way better than it.

It was one of the most depressing things I have seen...
So did other people too, since they received Hate mail for airing the episode and making people cry.

I always disliked it till I saw the Movie that explained what happened. Then it made it slightly less sad.
I dont know, Comedy Central seems like to play that episode alot, so its lost some of its influence.

A pretty sad ending but I think the one about the 7 leaf clover and his brother is way more sad
but both great episodes.

That always made be tear up a bit.chupacabrawolf said:
The dog episode is pretty sad. But seeing it around 5 times in a week made it lose it's touch.
Yeah... that was rough [oh wait, no pun intended]
The really sad part for me though was that Fry thought he made the right decision, allowing the dog to have the life it had, when the dog basically had no life after Fry left. That was the depressing part for me. Did he make the right decision though? We may never know.
I also thought that the music was pretty good and helped set the mood, despite what some other people have said.
Aww to hell with it ill show the scene to anyone not "in the know".
Yeeeeeeaaaaaah... sigh. :/
EDIT:
. But its really good though, anyone who hasn't seen it, definitely should.
