It doesn't sound like they're just reacting late though. Plus each late response is pretty much the same amount of seconds late.

The "Route Of All Evil" commentary is out of synch, it gets more and more pronounced as the episode progress. At the end it's something like 15 or 20 seconds out of synch. Most notably when the Little Prince get hit by a newspaper, 17 seconds later Dan Webber say "take that, beloved childhood icon!"
The "Where No Fan Hs Gone Before" commentary is a couple of seconds out of synch in the end as well. That's the only one that spring to mind.

There's quite a few commentaries that are out of sync. For anyone who doesn't want their enjoyment of these commentaries ruined (in case you never noticed these before), look away now: A Head In The Polls (commentary is 2 seconds ahead) How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back (during the third act, the sound in the show and the commentary goes about a second ahead of the picture) A Tale Of Two Santas (about 1 second ahead around the 2nd act) The Birdbot Of Ice-Catraz (1 second ahead around the 2nd act) The Route Of All Evil (11 seconds behind around the start of the 2nd act) Time Keeps On Slipping (1 second ahead) Roswell That Ends Well (1 second ahead) Godfellas (1 second ahead) A Taste Of Freedom (one of the most frustrating of all. Frequently alternates between being in sync, 6 seconds behind and 2 seconds ahead) Where No Fan Has Gone Before (4 seconds behind)

OK, good. It's not just my DVD. I didn't even notice the commentary being early/late in those other episodes in season 2 and 3 that Mouse on Venus provided. And I didn't intend for the title of the thread to be funny.

No. Because zapperdan, it isn't a gradual lag. For the first act of TROAE, the commentary is in sync, then early in the first act, after Maurice LaMarche says "Insert beer commercial here", there is an 11 second pause before Dan Vebber makes a comment about the newspaper scene 10 seconds ago and thus, for the rest of the ep, the commentary is 10-11 seconds behind. So basically, it was just a case of bad editing.

That could be true, but I think it's simply the fact that they goof around alot and simply respond late. And hey, we still know what they're talking about, and therefore the commentaries are still viewable.

Fox should take back all the DVDs with the out of sync commentary and fix the problem on each one! Well, a man can dream can't he?

I was actually surprised that the episode wasn't out of sync like you R2ers said. If we had gotten the out of sync version in R1, would it have been that bad though? I mean, was it really distracting?

The worst is 'A taste of freedom' because sometimes the commentary is early and sometimes it's late. Also, 'Where no fan has gone before' is kinda annoying especially at the last few minutes when no-one says anything until the credits.

I think sometimes in commentaries people bring in Water Or Coffee, so maybe there Silent as they all pick and choose that. If its just simple Swearing then they can beep it out, I've heard it done.

I actually just watched this particular episode with and without commentary today on my Season 3 DVD set, and the commentary's totally in-sync. I haven't noticed any of them from any seasons being out.
I have had this experience with one DVD some time ago, and I've been racking my brain to try and remember what it was to no avail. I do know, however, that it drove me NUTS, so I feel your pain! --E

Originally posted by User_names_suck: I think sometimes in commentaries people bring in Water Or Coffee, so maybe there Silent as they all pick and choose that. If its just simple Swearing then they can beep it out, I've heard it done. With Futurama, they tend to leave in stuff like that. Things such as when a person walks in halfway through a commentary, when they're eating during commentaries or even when someone's mobile phone goes off during a commentary - they've left it in here. Also, I doubt they'd swear in the commentaries - John Dimaggio was told to "only use words we can use in the show" when he said "asshole" on the Futurestock commentary, so obviously nobody else would try anything worse after hearing that. John also said "shit" during the 30% Iron Chef commentary, and that was left in unbeeped - so I doubt it's anything like that. Probably just careless encoding errors.
