I need to know the title of a Futurama episode!
« on: January 19, 2009, 07:37:41 AM »
Google is no help.  I need a clip from it for a video project.  The clip in question has Fry watching TV and remarking something to the effect of, "A million channels and absolutely nothing good on!"  I think it was a throw-away gag before the opening credits.  Anyone know?

LISTER: OR muffins!  OR muffins!  We don't LIKE muffins 'round here!  We want no muffins, no toast, no teacakes, no buns, baps, baguettes or bagels, no croissants, no crumpets, no pancakes, no potato cakes and no hot-cross buns and DEFINITELY no smegging flapjacks!
TOASTER: Aah, so you're a waffle man!

Good news everyone!

Bender's back, baby! New Futurama episodes are in our future

Comedy Central has ordered all brand new episodes of Futurama, and the show has officially gone back into production.

But, they went through the wormhole at the end of "Wild Green Yonder" and they're fugitives!  They could be thrown out into who-knows-where in time and space!  I thought that was a great ending to the series, and I don't know if they can top it.  "Wild Green Yonder" was a great movie, but the other DVD movies were just awful and didn't quite hit their stride.  I think they should quit while they're ahead.

I never have seen the other movies, but i agree. Perhaps some things are better left to fond memories, before we begin to see it turn into family guy.

That's what I said last night.

Of course, wouldn't it be the ultimate Futurama-ish plot twist if they came out the other end of the wormhole and it had dumped them out in the same time, but just behind the fleet that was chasing them?

This explains it.

So it looks like they ripped off my idea.
