I agree that the old FOX episodes were the best, for the most part.

They showed some rust in their writing when the series returned in 2010, but they did improve somewhat as the newer seasons wore on.

The DVDs suffered from the same problem that all of these animated shows have when they attempt to make a movie: They're not just not suited for it. All of these shows work best as self-contained, 30-minute episodes. They aren't meant to tell a long, cohesive story.
