I first saw a Clone of my own on Sky, before Futurama had started on C4. I thought it was hilarious, especially the smelloscope and couldn't wait until it started on terrestrial (as I don't have sky at home )

Welcome to PEEL, Osiris. Enjoy it here. And just to make this post look less like spam: I remember joining PEEL after only a few episodes (the first season or so, I think) and everbody was raving about season 3 and the upcoming season 4. I was totally out of the loop, and had several spoilers thrust upon me. Not that I complain, I'm drawn to spoilers like a moth (so kill me, Patrick Stewart! ), and luckily I've managed to close the gap. Anywho, first episode is still "The Series Has Landed".

Space Pilot 3000, first airing. SEX SEX SEX! Now that I have your attention: Bookmark this one, kiddies. The first I heard of the show was a year before the premiere. Matt Groening was a guest on the NPR program "Fresh Air" with Terry Gross. He was interviewed by TV critic David Bianculli about The Simpsons, and discussed The Simpsons movie plans, his plans for a live-action Krusty The Clown show, and finally, Futurama. I waited impatiently for a year, not really ever believing that Futurama would see the light of day. So to simply say I saw the pilot episode is an understatement of great magnitude. I have not been disappointed with a single frame of what instantly became my favorite show. Now, if you are interested, you can hear that clip from NPR on RealAudio. Go to: http://freshair.npr.org/dayFA.cfm?todayDate=archive Then do a search for "groening" under "Guests." Listen to the April 22, 1998 stream. For the more impatient among you, here's the link to the stream: http://www.npr.org/ramfiles/fa/19980422.fa.ram The entire interview starts at the six minute mark (6:00) and goes to 16:10. The bit about Futurama starts at 13:40. (Do yourself a favor and check out the whole site - Fresh Air has had some great programs.)

I didn't see it for ages as i didn't have sky tv when it first came out. The first episodes i saw were from series two and i loved them. I've since bought the first series on DVD and really enjoyed all of them, can't wait for the next series to be released. Any dates yet?

I missed Space Pilot 3000 (and in fact never managed to see it 'til the dvd came out), so my first episode was The Series Has Landed. I'd been looking forward to Groening's new show and was instantly hooked. I haven't had cable in a couple of years, but luckily have most of broadcast seasons 1-4 on tape, which are getting a bit worn out from excessive viewing. Thank god for dvd!

Hmmm my first episode was SP3000 on the C4 premiere and I carried on watching the episodes there until they stopped showing them after shoving the show to late night slots. Very annoying when you don't have Sky.
