I’ve been feeling down lately and I started re-watching futurama for some good nostalgia, but it keeps making transphobic jokes which is kind of just making me feel worse. Anyone have any suggestions for comfort shows to watch?

What transphobic jokes are in Futurama? I can’t seem to remember anything specific.
The Good Place is a great series.
Stranger Things perhaps.

Futurama had that one Episode “Bend-Her” where bender decides they suck too much to compete in the mens robo-lympics so he gets gender reassignment to crush all the fembots and get a gold medal… If they made that full length episode, i’m sure there are plenty of one offs and side gags throughout that didn’t stick out to me at the time.
I hated that episode. That type of premise felt out of date when it was released.
It was surprising to me because they had a really early episode where Leela beat up her sensei really because he was sexist so it was so weird that “Bend-her” was a choice.
I’ve been rewatching Futurama and honestly there is a lot of jokes even in the first season that made me uncomfortable. Mostly sight gags of horribly depicted trans femmes played for laughs. I wouldn’t call it a safe show.
Bob’s was the first thing that popped to mind.
