Whether you own the DVD's, tape it off TV, get it off the Net, how often do you PEELers out there watch the show? Personally, I usually find myself watching my DVD's (Season 1 & 2) at the very least once a week. And, I have about 2 VHS tapes (about 3 and a half hours each) that I always watch while I'm in bed for the night. So, I guess I watch it every day, for at the very least, an hour.

When I first got each DVD set I watched it every day for weeks. Funily enough, today I watched Futurama for the first time in a few weeks, not counting new episodes I have "aquired".

Sometimes I get an inkling to watch a certain episode, as I did the other morning and so watched it before I went to school. But I watch it at least once a week now, as I record it off Channel 4 as the show lots of animation stuff on friday night  :)

I watch it ever Sunday-Thursday that I am home on Cartoon Network.  I taped the ones I missed on thier first run through, so I've seen every episode CN has shown.  I should probably tape series 2 and most of 3 to keep until the DVDs are released here.

 I got the DVDs the day they came out and have watched them 3-4 times since, including with commentaries.  I also have FOX seasons 4 and 5 on tape and tend to watch a new episode 2-3 after it airs, but thoses will be replaced with DVDs when available.

Sometimes I have the urge to watch a particular episode at a particular time but otherwise I usually watch a couple of episodes on DVD every week. Usually I watch season 3 (that I taped of TV (that rhymes)) all in one go.

generally what i'll do is when the show comes on i'll tape-while-watching it and then when king of the hill comes on ill rewind the tape and watch it again. And then before i go to bed i'll watch it a third time. And then for the rest of the week i'll watch my favorite bits. Like with TWOF i'll watch the last 10 minutes starting at about the time FutureFry appears in the past ending with the lovely kiss at the end every night before i go to bed and sometimes when i wake up.

when no new Futurama comes on i'll just watch episodes that i have taped randomly, whenever the urge hits. But i'm on PEEL and TLZ everyday so no matter what i get my futurfix.

Fluctuates quite a bit. Some weeks I watch several episodes each day, sometime I just plop one of the DVD's in the player, while PEEL'ing or surfing the net. Some weeks it's as little as one or 2 episodes all in all.


I think it averages around 1 episode/day.

Repeating what Teral said will spare me from thinking about an answer.
But I would like to know in which Parallel Universe Lee Roberts is residing.

I *try* to watch Futurama whenever it's on CN, but it seems like that's when everyone wants to call me and waste just enough time for me not to see it -- that's my Fututrauma.  I'd watch it on Fox, too, if they put it on when the TV guide says it would be on.  I would also watch it more often than that, but I don't have Futurama on DVD.

Watch it at least 5 times a week. got all eps and I never get bored of watchin them either, not even the boring ones   ;)

edit: hm... actually that 5 is a false number, cuz i was thinking of family guy as well... so to be precise about 2-3 eps of futurama and anything else is family guy...

WHY SO MANY??? because UK tv SUCKS.

I watch it whenever it comes on Cartoon Network and on Saturday, I sometimes watch the episodes I tape when I have nothing better to do. I also watch it when it's on Fox, but that's a once in a lifetime experience.  :p

I have the season one DVD and about four tapes with most of the eps scattered about.  I watch Futurama at least two or three times a week, even if it's only one ep.  So far I have watched "The Why Of Fry" about four times.  Dur to time constraints, I don't watch it as much as I'd like.  At least three or four eps a week.  Regardless if fox shows one or not.

Season 1 is in the mail for me, but that doesnt stop me and my friends from watching the mpegs (of which i have evey aired episode) at home, before class, after class, IN class. hehe. thanks to William Paterson University for buying a $2G projector for the Computer Science dept. so we can sit back in the lab and watch Futurama.
Plus I watch episodes on CN

At uni there is this really lecture theatre that has 2 BIG screens at the front, we're talking 4:3 ratio projection screens twice the height of cinema screens (maybe not QUITE that big).

In the break between lecture parts, the lecturer plays some shitty music DVDs from the computer hooked up to the projector, and I sit there wishing I could play but one futurama episode up there in all its glory! Now that would be awesome.

I watch at least one episode everyday, but if I had those 2 screens in my house (like they'd fit lol) I wouldnt stop!

If you got a laptop, hook that shit up, or plug you laptop into the network and transfer them over to the box that is hooked up to the projector, or DL eps for your home rigg.  Find a way, use the force, cause Futurama on 4:3 cinema screens, i would fly out to your university to see that. hehehe

I don't watch the show as much as I used to.  Probably because its not on FOX as much anymore and I've watched all other episodes so many times.  I'd say right now its about 7 episodes a month.  It'll probably change once the Season 3 DVD comes out.

I missed the show when it came on Fox but when Adult Swim showed it, I was hooked! Then I downloaded most of them (some stll downloading) from Kazaa (ah the buety of pirating!) and watch it on cartoon netowrk whenever I can. I always get the theme song stuck in my head during the day, but it makes me hyper so I don't mind!  :p

Do it Grim. It's worth getting kicked out of class for. Hey, maybe the class will be turned on to the show.

edit- Welcome aboard, Leela03. It's nice to see that Adult Swim is bringing new fans in. But, btw, the 'downloading' word is forbidden. Because, you know, its 'illegal'.   :nono:

Well, so much for watching it tomorrow night!!  I am certain I'll be tied up long enough to get home just in time to see the final credits of Futurama on CN.

If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.
