If you forgot, this show takes a Futurama episode and thematically pairs it with an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, which works surprisingly well.
This episode covers Futurama episode “The Sting.”
This show exclusively releases every other episode here on the Small Beans patreon. Wimmy Wam Wam Wozzle!

I'd argue that a robot like Data doing a full memory wipe would count as a form of suicide. Even if the new version of you wound up being similar in many aspects, it wouldn't be a 1:1 match, the you that you were would be gone entirely. A death of the ego, with a new ego growing to fill the void.
If a person took their own life, for example, and then turned into a blank slate zombie who eventually became sapient and intelligent on par with a living person again, but with zero memory of whoever they were before, would that negate the initial suicide? Not a perfect analogy l know, but l think it helps illustrate my point.

I always took the fact that Fry said "i don't know if you can hear me right now Leela, but i love you" (the important part being the first half of that sentence) to mean that he's directly speaking to her from outside of the coma, specifically because those words are said less than a minute before she actually wakes up.

only because you guys hint at the TNG Season 8 that never happened, shout out to @TNG_S8, a novelty Twitter account. a hilarious look at where TNG could have gone if they continued the series. they have been inactive for quite some time and no longer post anything, but according to the account itself, a lot of the ideas expressed there were channeled into the Lower Decks series.
