We tuned in expecting jokes and space hijinks.
What we got… was Seymour.
This wasn’t just a cartoon episode. It was a punch to the soul.
No dialogue. No manipulation. Just one dog… waiting.
Futurama showed us that animated stories could hit harder than real life.
Some of us still aren't over it.

I may be a little weird in this respect but the loss of a pet has always hit me harder than the loss of a family member. I lost my great grandmothers and my grandfather and felt much less upset than when I had to BE my dog.
I actually addressed this very point in a different comment. But basically I actually agree. I'm being dramatic with "this is my hill to die on". My hill is probably more "all of these episodes are very emotional and not just Jurassic Bark should be mentioned every time." I think your family and pet experiences play a lot in determining which episode hits you harder.
