Bender becomes a fembot.
Juliet Adeoye will not like this episode

Directed by: James Purdum

LOL

James Purdum. The poor guy, he's getting closer to my weight. That's what happens when you marry a beer company. But James is one of the mellowest (yet conscise) directors I've ever worked with. (Eh, he's just a little fatter than the old Simpson days....not a meatloaf like me.  )
I didn't work on

Show spoiler

Bend Her

, but I saw quite a few drawings from it around the studio. Sounds like a cute concept. 

[Reply #3 on:]

Coool. Are those all final episode titles? They don't seem very punny. But maybe I'm missing something.

Also:

Show spoiler

4ACV13: Bend Her
Bender becomes a fembot.

4ACV14: Obsoletely Fabulous
Bender gets an unwanted upgrade.

You think those two episodes are one and the same?

[Reply #4 on:]

Show spoiler

I bet that unwanted upgrade is a conscience.

(No ill feelings towards you, Leandro. Just doing some comparisons here.)
Scully got me canned from the Simpsons last year for posting one-line synopses of upcoming future Season 13 episodes. They were about the same length as what Leandro posted on his site. The same thing. And Scully had me fired. But it's obviously okay if Leandro leaks from Curiosity. I guess Curiosity isn't as anal retentive as Gracie Films, or that *** ****** ******* Scully.

eh i saw it coming

[Reply #11 on:]

All the same, I'd exercise discretion, Sarge.

[Reply #12 on:]

Like the discretion that seeps from my armpits? I'm way ahead of ya!  But thanks. 
I won't say anymore on it, but I appreciate Matt Gs' brutal honesty in this ep.

Hmmm... this Scully sure was a big ***hole, then. Those one-liners are the kind of descriptions you would get from TV Guide, I actually don't see any problem with getting them out. After all, the show's getting so little promotion that without this kind of "leaks" we would never get to know the episode titles.

I certainly PRAY that [name removed to avoid screwing up] doesn't get fired for telling me those. But I actually see no reason why that should be the case. Those one-liners are nothing compared to what Animator1 used to tell.. I don't know where Animator1 is now, though, last time I knew of him/her was when he/she gave me the spoiler for "Roswell That Ends Well", back in March (you can see it here - THAT is one big detailed spoiler and a reason to fire a person for. Fortunately for him/her, Animator1 never let out his/her name).

You could actually spoil everyone in the world, Sarge... just get a bendher@hotmail, and who'll know it was you? If I worked on a show, I certainly would give away spoilers left and right - I absoultely love spoilers, spoiling, and getting spoilers.

Read you later,
Leandro.

Whats this? when will the next small bit of season4 arive us? next week...Mothers day? Whats this, a pukin' freakshow? Season-premier without new season?

[Reply #16 on:]

Why isn't "Roswell that ends well" on that list?

[Reply #17 on:]

My god, theres still 9 more season 3 episodes! I did'nt know there were that many. It will be ages before the proper season 4 episodes air.

I'm really excited about the season 4 episode "Idle Hands Are the Devil's Playthings" because I'm 99% sure that Beelzebot will return, YAY! Not only does the title sugest this but Dan Castellaneta guest voices. It's a piity it's at the end of the list which means it will be ages unless it's moved ahead.

That episode has the saddest ending ever.

Sad is good. The best eps are usually the emotional ones.
     

[Reply #19 on:]

They've added Johnathan Frakes to the list of guest stars in the Star Trek episode! I am so looking forward to that episode. I wonder how many more Trek actors they can get in it?

[Reply #20 on:]

My bet would be that A LOT of those episode titles change over time...

I fully agree, like 'The Luck of the Fryrish'      

[Reply #23 on:]

i agree, luck of the fryrish rocks

[Reply #24 on:]

Thanks Leandro. I know where you're coming from. It's a tightrope walk between heaven & hell with leaks. But I told the good folks at Futurama that I wouldn't leak any 'info', & I plan to keep on holding back till the eps air on TV. After that, it's just a 'look back', but they'll be in rough drawings, not synopses.  That'll add some freshness to shows that've already aired. For now, I just post pics that show character, but reveal no plots or gags.

My folks once promised to take me to another place that 'Rocks'; Stonehenge.  But they ended taking me to some cheezy American alternative..."CARhenge"...Go figure!!!

[Reply #26 on:]

Luck of the fryish is a different type of sad, I think; Fry gets sad because he realized that, his brother loved and missed him (something Fry seemed to not really think about, that anyone would miss him) and even named his child after Fry.  The Jurassic Bark type story could easily end up being like homeward, champ goes through heck and back to finally finds Fry frozen, but dies tragically and gets fossilized... which would be a most unsatisfactory ending (going through hardship, showing loyalty of the dog or something, but it comes to naught).

I agree though, the sad emotional episodes are the best, as long as they aren't terribly tragic.

[Reply #27 on:]

I like great comedy, & I like great tragedy. As long as they're.....'great'. 

[Reply #28 on:]

"Meat me under the weeping willo:"

[Reply #29 on:]

You know what would be great?  meisterPOOP posting something relevant to anything.

[Reply #30 on:]

But... why isn't Roswell that ends well on that list?

[Reply #31 on:]

And when will be the next airing of one of these eps...i dont see it in the sheduleplan of fox yet... ( do we really have to wait till 23th?

*kicks out smilie *

[Reply #32 on:]

What about people who live in England, I would be more than happy to see "A Tale of Two Santas" on the 23rd. Soon after that you get AOI 2 you very lucky people.

[Reply #33 on:]

What about the people in Australia who have waited 20 months and never have their questions answered? 

[Reply #34 on:]

Hell if I know...I guess they just didn't want to tell about an already-aired episode in their big spoilery article.

Bill Gates would.

Seriously, using hotmail, yahoo, etc. is no guarantee of anonymity.  It's possible to track back to the machine things were posted from.

[Reply #36 on:]

Then use one of those anonymous mail senders, sheesh. Or a CGI script placed on a webpage that sends out mail.

Nitpickers. Sheesh.

('Roswell' isn't on that list just because it already aired. when episodes get aired I'll remove 'em. also add any new spoiliry-info that arrives.)

[Reply #37 on:]

As long as it isn't me, I don't mind.

In a perfect world that could happen. 

I'll agree with most here, "Luck of the fryish" is a fabulous episode. Loved it to pieces. In the same way I loved the ending of "A Bicyclops Built for Two" and the lunar lander scene of "The Series has Landed" (okay, so I'm a sucker for emotional scenes    ).

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.

Well, um, back on topic. I haven't read the synopsis yet, but I'm gonna! Why is it that whenever something reads SPOILERS, I'm automatically drawn to it, like a moth to a flame?

you probably wouldn't think it was nitpicky if it was your ass that was on the line.
