Aussie TV?

[Reply #720 on:]

DAmn you, what do you think will happen if i start a thread pertaining only to this? They dont care. Will you be watching it or not?

[Reply #721 on:]

GRRRRR, are you watching it or not?

[Reply #722 on:]

its just that there already is a farscape thread-
 http://www.peelified.com/cgi-bin/Futurama/14-000508-3/

[Reply #723 on:]

no one visits this thread except Australians anyway. and in the end it isnt about Futurama on TV, but everything about Futurama and other such strange, but brilliant, shows in Australia. this is the Aussie HANG!

but that said most of the talk here is about the show on Aussie TV

[Reply #724 on:]

the mods know if they close this thread they will wind up with a boomerang up side their heads

[Reply #725 on:]

Do you *actually* even own an boomerang? How stereotypical do you want to be? Why not just say you're going to send your fleet of pet kangaroos loose on them later... 

Anyway,
Has Ch7 been skipping eps again? Otherwise what ep are they up to?

[Reply #726 on:]

Crows.... phhhtt...

[Reply #730 on:]

Did I miss something? HAs the may 1st date changed?

[Reply #731 on:]

is that May 1st date for eastern states? or only Perth... i thought it might be only Perth, but hopefully not.

[Reply #732 on:]

GRRRR, i dunno. We should find out once and for all.

[Reply #733 on:]

thank you for your flame Ninaka but for your information it is what we in the real world i.e everywhere else other than Sydney call a JOKE...end of response flame.

p.s. it was a response to that whole 'aussie thread up against the u.s ones' and yes, I do own a boomerang it was hand made and given to me when I visited a cattle station near Darwin, we had helped some local indig hunters with medical supplies after one got hurt.

[Reply #734 on:]

Yeah lighten up nina. Besides its fun to patronise yanks. Some Exchange studens came to school. And we had a blast reinforcing every negative Australian stereotype. Such as, we live in caves and ride kangeroos around the place.

[Reply #735 on:]

HEY! I do have a pet kangaroo, and I'm not sitting on a chair but on a wombat.

I'm hungry, so I'll just throw a boomerag out to the kitchen and it'll bring back food.

The flies are so bad here my best cork hat doesn't even keep them away.

don't worry, I'm Australian, I'm bagging myself. See we Aussies have a sense of humour! Unknown to other people.

What!? German's have a sense of humour too? When did this happen? Your joking right? That's not funny!

[Reply #736 on:]

I really hate australian stereotypes, Im sure some PEELers can remember what happened the last time I got started on Australian Stereotypes... GRR... boils my blood just thinking about them!

I'm working all day 2moro, but on thursday I'll give 7 a call and try and squeeze a date for the eastern states...

[Reply #737 on:]

I dont remember. On a unrelated topic, has anyone ever seen ht Gary and Mike show? ITs this really funny animated show they used to show on channel 10. doesnt get treated good either.

[Reply #738 on:]

Gary and Mike Show.... no, doesn't ring a bell. How long ago was it on?

[Reply #739 on:]

Few months. IT was made by mtv. You know that style of animation with the clay? Thats what it looked like. Its about these 2 guys on a permanant roadtrip across america. Its sorta a play on the odd couple. It was really funny and was vioced by Harlin Williams, a really funny comedian.

I receaved this email from 7 perth:

Hi James
 
FUTURAMA will return at 10.50pm as of Thursday May 1.
 
Unfortunately Seven has tried it in a number of timeslots, specifically 7.30pm and 8pm on a Thursday and Friday night, but it just isn't accepted by the majority of viewers as a perferred program.
 
It's one of my favourite shows too, so I'm happy it's returning.
 
Warm regards

Hi,
 
I have enjoyed futurama, I own the DVD's of the first and second season. Why isn't futurama on anymore? If you do put it on, i would love to be able to stay up and watch it (10:30 is NOT a great time slot).
 
Thankx James

Quickly - to the Batmobile!

...wait a minute...

Good news that Futurama is returning to Australia though, because it means I won't have to keep sending tapes to my Uncle (who lives in Brisbane)

[Reply #744 on:]

Well may will be here soon enough, we can just check out tv guides and assume that itll be on. Im sure itll be on for us too. Amybe even a week sooner

[Reply #745 on:]

Yes,
I checked http://www.yourtv.com.au  and saw that Futurama will be on Thursday May 1st in Melbourne. The episode is Time Keeps On Slippin'! I would copy and paste the evidence of it.. What do I looks like I guy that's not lazy?

WOO HOO!!

[Reply #746 on:]

Go team!

[Reply #747 on:]

Its also on in Sydney Adelaide Brisbane and of course Perth.

[Reply #748 on:]

I bet they show the remaining couple of episodes of season 3 and take a break until season 4...

[Reply #749 on:]

excellent, futurama is back on 7
and to "alexvilagosh", the crows rock!

[Reply #750 on:]

[Reply #751 on:]

[Reply #752 on:]

[Reply #753 on:]

well that's good, coz I didnt call 7 2day either, bastard boss at work called me in mid morning as it was an "emergency"

well saved myself 20c on a fone call...

hooray!

[Reply #754 on:]

Yes, but by posting here, you have just made a phone call, that is unless your on broadband... 

Anyhow, they better show season 4 as well. And season '5' so we can get all the episodes before America, lol.

[Reply #755 on:]

Chances are that they are gonna play em all out so that cartoon network can start playing them here!

If that were the case I might just get foxtel...

Yeah, I can see how you'd be pissed at how we don't share your taste in white, pointy hats and penchant for burning foreigners...

In other news, I ordered my season 3 box set from Amazon UK today, so once it arrives, Channel 7 can stick their demented scheduling up their collective ass.

[Reply #757 on:]
