OTOH, I like the big part of the episodes to end on a humorous note, ala "The Deep South", "Why Must I be...", "Loves Labour...", etc.

My personal all-time favorite is 2ACV01 "I Second That Emotion", followed closely by 2ACV05 "Why Must I be a Crustacean in Love" and 1ACV12 "When Aliens Attack". I pretty much prefer the hilarious episodes to the emotional ones...

I dunno, but if you ever find the answer, I sure would love to know...

I was trying to make a joke with the 'Nitpickers, sheesh' line, since I'm the biggest nitpicker there is and probably would've pointed that out myself. I know Hotmail & Yahoo adds a X-Originating-IP field to the mail... what I do use to send mail without including my IP anywhere is this script I upped to Virtualave back in the days of 'Futurama Winamp Skins':

I just paste the headers I want, the message, click a button, and off it goes, directly from the Virtual Avenue machine and without any $REMOTE_ADDR field.

I really like the sound of "A Pharaoh To Remember". I think it will have great potential and the Egyptian theme sounds interesting and original. I also like it when they go to other planets which doesn't happen enough if you ask me.

Personally I hate "S02E05 - I Second That Emotion". Bender is just to damn cold hearted in that episode. And I hate that part were Bender makes that lovely cake and Nibbler swallows it in 2.5 seconds. I would flush Nibbler down the toilet to.

[Reply #50 on:]

Where did that come from?

[Reply #51 on:]

I dunno.... Many said that they liked that episode some posts higher on the page.

[Reply #52 on:]

Well personally I love that episode. back to topic, anyone know what episode is after "A Tale of Two Santas", airing order?

[Reply #53 on:]

I doubt Fox will air any Futurama episode the 30, but Anthology of Interest II may be shown on January 6th 2002. After that, it's anyone's guess. I'll be waiting for Don Del Grande's announcements at alt.tv.futurama.

Better start a new thread BC...The {Random} Thought Police is gonna bust ya.

[Reply #55 on:]

Why? *I* would flush Nibbler down the toilet, too...

By the way, [-mArc-] tells me that Fox will show 'Luck of the Fryish' on Dec. 30, so next new episode may indeed be Anthology II on Jan. 6.

Am I the only one who thinks "Futurama Babies" sounds like it could be a really hilarious episode?  It its anything like the shear goofiness of "Time Keeps on Slippin'" without the tacked on emotion that that episode had, it should a good poke at a cartoon convention. ie: Baby versions of established cartoon characters.

I missed that ep altogether, it sounds potentially good.

I meant I missed that episode when I was looking down the list on the Leela Zone.

[Reply #61 on:]

Well it's just over a week until you lucky Americans get to see "Anthology of Interest II". As it's nearly time for it to air I'm wondering if anyone knows yet wether the part with Frys life becoming a video game will be 3D or not? Anyone got any promo shots or preview shots yet? If not then will anyone be likely to get any before it airs, I'm looking in [-mArc's-] general direction...

[Reply #62 on:]

I didn't get ahold of any yet, but my guess would be it's done like in "a bicyclopse".
The writers are more the NES generation than 3D playstation

I was once again looking down at the list of season 4 spoilers and when I looked at the description for "Crimes of the Hot" it talks about global warming taking a turn for the worst, but in the episode "Xmas Story" Leela says that global warming was prevented by a nuclear winter. Heres the description:

4ACV08: Crimes of the Hot
The Earth faces a global warming crisis.
From David X. Cohen's Sci-Fi Weekly interview: "We're having Al Gore back on the show [...] he will be hosting the Global Warming Conference of the Earth 3003 when global warming takes a sudden turn for the worse. It's about the year 3002 roughly, and so they have to take action, of course, and they rescue our periodic guest star, Al Gore"

I remember that ep. I drew thousands & thousands of robots. Each night I wake up screaming!

Nobody "rescues Al Gore". What was that about?

[Reply #66 on:]

Damn you and your teasing ways Sarge!!        

         

[Reply #67 on:]

Also the fact that in the episdoe description it mentions being in the year 2002/2003 suggesting that every year of Futurama made adds a year of age to the cast, unlike The Simpsons. This means that if Futurama continues to be made for about 10 years, then Professor Farnsworth will have to be taken away again because everyone will think he's 160 when really he would be 170. He wouldn't be able to get out of this time. It also means that if Kif has a baby, then we will see it grow up over the years, that would be cool.

When will people ever learn? Aging cartoons suck.

That second segment really rocked...Time to Work on Little Bender!

I'm only going by what I know, Matt Groening said that Futurama is more realistic than The Simpsons which means age might play a part. Thinking about it, aging wouldn't be too good, but instead it would be nice if they went foward into time through a time machine and we could see Kifs offsping that way.

On a different subject, there is a season 4 episode called "The Why Of Fry" which is about the niblonians again. From the title I guess that this episode will explain why Fry is resistant to the evil brains, what do you think?

Yeah, but it also said sudden. Anyways, global warming can happen again. And Leela was talking about a past event in that one case.

[Reply #72 on:]

Only time will tell.

[Reply #73 on:]

I think that aging would have to be an important factor in Futurama, because if it didn't happen then Fry wouldn't have left all the people behind 1000 years ago.  They'd all still be alive.  If the show lasts for a good 5-7 years the characters could age without really changing their personalities or looks all that much.

I do like the fact that the years keep changing, regardless of whether or not the characters age though.
