Futurama in the UK - General Discussion - Season 7B airs 2nd November!

[Reply #160 on:]

What?! You better be trolling...

There is nothing disturbing in the entire episode... Except for the Professor at the end... And even adults are disturbed by that...

[Reply #161 on:]

Well the amount of half naked girls, sexist remarks and scenes that may be inappropriate to air at 8:00 (I agree with you however, but you know how the UK is :/)

[Reply #162 on:]

I think they would have realised that before finalising the air time, I mean, the Professor said 'Piss' in Proposition Ininity, and that's not usually allowed on Sky, especially before 9. (Okay it was like 6 mins till' 9, but still.) Infact, that entire ep was slightly raunchy, if they can show that but not Neutopia, that's just retarded. I doubt they won't show it, but if they don't, again:

Meh, as I say, as long as we get the eps and then the DVD/Blu-Ray, I couldn't care less about what order they are in.

Or if they aren't shown at all.

And yes, I know how the UK is, it's stupid.

[Reply #163 on:]

and Mom said "Bastard" about six times in AOTKA

[Reply #164 on:]

And in "A Fishful of Dollars".

[Reply #165 on:]

I'm hoping the DVD / Blu-Ray will get a Christmas release, want so bad.

Same here, but only for the Audio Commentaries.

[Reply #166 on:]

That's stupid. Why not the eps too?

[Reply #167 on:]

Sorry, I meant mainly for the Audio Commentaries- you see, I've already seen most of the new episodes at least once/twice, so it'd be great to listen to the Audio Commentaries, because they're entertaining.

[Reply #168 on:]

Yes, most of us have, but I still want the Blu-Ray for the eps, and of course the Commentaries, but mostly the eps.

Something about having them on DVD makes me wanna watch them more...

EXACTLY! It's like you have the power to do whatever you want with them...

[Reply #171 on:]

*Bump*

Just thought I'd say, Neutopia is still going to be shown, it's on the 9th of September, they've just swapped it with Benderama.

[Reply #172 on:]

So Stupid... 

[Reply #173 on:]

Ugh, I managed to watch the 'Standard' Definition of Futurama on Sky 2 and the accouncer said 'Fry and Co try and save the world' when the episode was That Darn Katz... eer I think 'Fry and Co' were a bit busy, being mind controlled by cats and all.

[Reply #174 on:]

Jesus Christ, it's really starting to piss me off.

I imagine 'The Prisoner of Benda' will be called 'Prisoner of Bender' or some crap like that, they really don't care.

[Reply #175 on:]

More like 'Prison of Frey' 

[Reply #176 on:]

"Prison of Frey" followed by "Irreconcilable Differences"

[Reply #177 on:]

The Muttons are Revolutoning
Bendrama
Law and Order
Goats in the Machines
Silence of the Clams
Yo Gaba Leela
The President Heads
Moby Dickus
Frey am Eggman
Zoidberg Tip of Iceberg
Cold War
Clockwise
Rebirth

And you get the idea with that...

[Reply #178 on:]

Haha Cold War and The President Heads were great!

At least they got 'That Darn Katz!' right... Okay, looking at the descriptions for tomorrow's eps, it's not as bad, they just have a strong hate for the word 'The'. And now 'A'...... 'Clockwork Origin' and 'Prisoner of Benda'.

Also, HOLY JESUS! I JUST SAW THAT STUPID ADVERT FOR THE NEW EPS INVOLVING THE STING. I CRINGED. Backarama? Bigarama? Better than Everarama? WTF? And why splice in like 6 new clips with a thousand clips of the old eps? JUST SHOW US THE NEW STUFF.

[Reply #179 on:]

Sky 1 is crap... If it weren't for actually showing Futurama (and the Simpsons) I wouldn't watch the bloody channel.

Sky1 treat The Simpsons like dogs mess... Every 5 weeks they restart with the same episodes on an endless loop

[Reply #181 on:]

You mean like they used to do with Futurama? The amount of times I saw the junkyard scene in 'The Honking'....

[Reply #182 on:]

I think Sky just don't like Matt Groening and the team.

[Reply #183 on:]

Okay, I think this one is wrong, it's the description for 'A Clockwork Origin':

'The theory of evolution is put to the test as the Planet Express crew visit a planet populated by robots.'

OH AND THE ONE FOR TPOB IS WRONG TOO:

'A revolutionary invention from Professor Farnsworth and Amy allows the crew to exchange minds.'

SINCE WHEN WAS AMY AN INVENTOR?!

[Reply #184 on:]

I'm sure they don't know the name of the crew as many of the descriptions read 'Fry and Co...' when Fry isn't hardly involved in the episode (This is apparent in next weeks episode Lrrconciable Ndnd...Whatever and many other episodes this season and even in the original run)

[Reply #185 on:]

Sky 1 is crap... If it weren't for actually showing Futurama (and the Simpsons) I wouldn't watch the bloody channel.

I ditched it after Lost Season 6 finished, nothing worth my time on that channel anymore. I get my Futurama elsewhere and then I buy all the eps on DVD anyways...

Also, on a side note they spewed various crap at the beginning of each Lost ep, but it got even worse when those blasted 118 adverts came on as well ...

[Reply #186 on:]

So I was about a quarter way through TPOB on Sky1 HD when it started lagging, so I had to watch it in SD on Sky1.

Fuck you, Sky.

[Reply #187 on:]

That Darn Katz, sorry if this has already been mentioned but I feel like I imagined it! In this episode, that aired in the UK on Sky One on a Friday night, when the cat head shaped spacecraft landed it made a meow meow meow meow noise (like Homer Simpson thinks when he is on jury duty, when Bart witnessess the alledged attack at the Quimby mansion).

On the subsequent repeated episode it didn't make that noise, it kind of purred when landing. I'm 100% sure I'm right about this, can anyone confirm it or am I just losing my marbles???

Sorry if my description is poor, but it's a bit difficult to explain!

[Reply #188 on:]

The meowing you're on about is an advertisement jingle for Purina catfood. Perhaps they ran into some sort of copyright snafoo and had to replace it?

[Reply #189 on:]

I know what you mean, I'm getting sick and tired of the episode where Lisa trys to rescue the beached whale.

Channel 4 is better for the Simpsons. It may be only once per weekday at 6:00PM, but at least they show the classics.

[Reply #190 on:]

What? Different noise for the Cat Ship? I heard a deep 'MEOW', just like in the US version...

[Reply #191 on:]

Why does the second episode on Sky HD always lag... it pisses me off. I mean its been on for enough weeks and they should start 'seeing a pattern' soon. Idiots.

[Reply #192 on:]

I'm glad I don't watch Sky anymore ...

[Reply #193 on:]

Just read the description for "The Mutants are Revolting"

Leela is banished to the sewers when she is discovered to be a mutant. But our intergalactic gal won't take things lying down. 

[Reply #194 on:]

OMG that's just, well... there are no words, only shame ...

[Reply #195 on:]

She pilots an intergalactic spaceship!  Intergalactic means crossing galaxies, not that it comes from a galaxy outside of the Milky Way right?  I think you're confusing it with the term "extra terrestial".

Sky One is horrible.  I absolutely hate that episode where Lisa gets her own tv news show, and Mars University, because they were on at least twice a week.  I never want to watch either of them again, and always change the channel when they are on.

Hadn't lagged for me... Until this week. Load of shit.

And holy fuck, that description for TMAR pisses me off SO MUCH.

[Reply #197 on:]

Why?  I don't honestly see what's so bad about it.  I would say a girl who pilots an intergalactic spaceship is pretty... intergalactic.  I would be mad if someone said she was an extra terrestial since that would be calling her an alien. 

[Reply #198 on:]

It's a pretty shitty description though, you've gotta admit...

[Reply #199 on:]

Fucking hate Sky, assholes!

AND THE MUSIC IN THE NEW FUTURAMA AD.

I'll be honest, if I saw that and I wasn't a Futurama fan i'd be slightly put off.
