Opening Title Sequence Messages

Hello! Are we all enjoying "Futurama" so far? I know I am. I just wish it would have stayed on Sundays.

Since I haven't seen anyone else do it yet, I've decided to maintain a list of all of the varying messages that appear below the logo at the beginning of the "Futurama" opening credits. In case you aren't familiar with these messages, at the beginning of each opening credits sequence before an episode of Futurama, beneath the logo is a message that is different each time, similar to the blackboard quotes and couch gags from "The Simpsons."

Here's the list:

Prod. # Futurama...

1AVC01         In Color
1AVC02         In Hypno-Vision*
1AVC03         As Seen on TV

* Probably refers to the "Mass Hypnosis Hour," a 31st century TV show which I believe will be seen in an episode sometime this season; you can see a billboard for it in the opening credits.

Someone else can handle a list of the different cartoons shown on the big TV at the end of the opening credits. This list is easier to maintain, which is why I chose to do it (insert evil laughter, demonic organ chord here).

I would like some input about how often you think I should post this list. After every episode? Monthly? I need suggestions. Also as soon as I get a response from the maintainer of The Futurama Archive, this list will probably be in the Lists section there. Anyone else who would like this list for their web sites can let me know.

"Hypno-Vision" was a film technique used for at least one film that I've heard of, though I haven't seen it: The Maniacs Are Loose

Here is a transcription of the trailer:

Announcer, with echo effect: So scary, so terrifying, we dare *you* to see The Maniacs Are Loose! [Loose! Loose!] The world's first horror movie made in hallucinogenic Hypno-Vision! Hallucinogenic horrors not only on the screen, but IN the audience, all around you! It's a hallucinogenic nightmare! You are put in the middle of the picture with bloodthirsty maniacs all around you! Not only on the screen, but live maniacs in the audience, all over the theater looking for victims! [Victims! Victims!] Homicidal maniacs escape from an asylum! They terrorize a community! Gullible, love starved women become their prey! [Prey! Prey!] And you'll see these same bloodthirsty maniacs in the audience all around you, ALIVE! For the thrill of your life, see The Maniacs Are Loose! [Loose! Loose!]

The 1964 film was apparently also titled "The Thrill Killers," "Monsters Are Loose," and "Mad Dog Click."

Looking at http://us.imdb.com/Title?Thrill+Killers,+The+(1964) , there is only one person who has reviewed it, and he claims it to be the worst film he's ever seen... Looks live it's time to head out to the video store! :^)
