Why I Wrote "Jurassic Bark" (with Eric Kaplan)

Good news everyone! We're walking on sunshine this week as Futurama's own, Eric Kaplan, joins us for a deep-dive discussion on his beloved (and emotionally-scarring) Futurama episode, "Jurassic Bark".

Eric takes us inside the making of Fry and Seymour’s unforgettable story, the original ending (which is even more heartbreaking than the final product), the aspects of the story that are overshadowed by THAT moment and so much more.

Plus we get a unique insight into Futurama’s writing room, the episode’s lasting legacy, and why “Jurassic Bark” still hits just as hard all these years later.

It’s a fascinating, funny and deeply moving chat with one of Futurama’s great creative minds. Grab a tissue, press play, and prepare to be emotionally destroyed in the best possible way.
