On TVtome.com they have the plot-synopsis for the new season, and if they can be trusted to be accurate) some of them sound really good, while others don't sound great but as we all know Futurama can make a great episode out of a dull plot. My comments are in the ().

58. The Route Of Evil Cubert and Hermes' son Dwight use the Planet Express crew to help with their paper route.

(Sounds like a better opener could have been picked but interesting in itself, my only question is where the hell is this "Dwight" coming from, as far as I remember I have never heard of a mention of Hermes having a kid).

59. Kif Gets Knocked Up A Notch Kif Kroker gets pregnant.

(This one I am looking forward to alot, Kif is my favorite Futurama character, now it begs the question of who the"father" is, Amy maybe?)

60. Less Than Hero Fry and Leela get superpowers.

(Will they fight "The Collector"?)

61. A Taste Of Freedom Zoidberg's species invader Earth. Also, Zoidberg eats a flag.

(Wow, thats a weak invasion...)

62. Bender Should Not Be Allowed On TV Bender gets a role on "All My Circuits."

(Very interesting....)

63. Jurassic Bark Fry finds his old fossilized dog.

(I like the idea of this one but it must be some strange circumstances that allow Fry's dog to get fossilized)

64. Crimes Of The Hot New New York faces a global warming crisis. Al Gore guest-stars again.

(Okay, since technically Al Gore is not in the continuity of the series I am very curious to see this one play out).

65. Futurama Babies The crew is exposed to a youth mud.

(BAH)

66. The Why Of Fry Fry helps the Nibblonians from "The Day the Earth Stood Stupid" help save the universe again.

(I can't wait to see Nibbler talk again, Frank Welker is great as his speaking voice as well as the "noises" that we normally hear and "The Day the Earth Stood Stupid" was a great episode so I am eager to see the sequel to it)

67. The Sting Giant space bees attack the crew.

("Our Crew Is Expendable, Your Package Is Not")

68. Bend Her Bender gets an unwanted sex change.

(Could be funny)

69. Obsoletely Fabulous Bender gets an unwanted upgrade.

(Isn't this a tad redundant since the last episode dealt with Bender getting an unwanted "upgrade"?)

70. The Farnsworth Paradox The Professor hides mysterious contents in a box. According to Cinescape, the focal point for this episode deals with the possibilies of parallel universes.

(Yes, the Professor at his nutty moments always make for classics. Farnsworth is my second favorite character).

At last, another Zoidberg-episode. Can't wait to see it... This makes up for some great opportunities to escalate the Zoidberg-Hermes-feud.

Hasn't Fox cancelled futurama? I read something in the paper saying that it'd been dumped and Groening was soo pissed that he was ready to drop the simpsons...

Well, these are the not-yet-aired episodes Foy still has in stock due to their continuous pre-emptions. What'll happen after these got aired - nobody knows. They haven't ordered new ones so far (deadline was the end of february). So most of the Futurama-staff had to look for new jobs. Look at www.gotfuturama.com for more details.

That's not really what happened. FOX stopped ordering new Futurama episodes. It hasn't been cancelled. Someone else pointed out there are some unaired episodes that will air next season; however, no new episodes will be produced.

Though Groening is upset about this, he is not threatening to drop the Simpsons (especially since he has very little to do with the Simpsons anymore anyway...).

Please note: You can contact me directly by sending e-mail to [email], but you must put "[alt-tv-simpsons]" in the subject line or it will automatically be deleted.

Yep. He has retained control over Futurama rather than handing it over to Fox like he did with the Simpsons

Hmm...maybe they did that because they were frustrated they couldn't do what they like with it....

Well, finally some of those continuity errors forced by Fox's inept shifting of episodes. Yet another reason to hate them!

It can't be as bad as Clerks, when the second aired episode was a flashback to an episode that hadn't aired. "Moon" wrote in message news:[email]...

SmartAsses!!!

Just in case you ARE as stupid as you seems, I'll explain : Date : (n) <deit> A day of a month. Like 1st of July 2002 or 6th of march 1973

So I repeat my question : Do you have a date for the new season ? There. Make more sense now ?

No I don't, but I'm thinking of asking this girl that works at the local Circle K.

But since they is no announced information on when the season will start, it doesn't really pay to get a date.

Nope, we're still being smart asses.

If history is any indication, it'll probably premiere right after the ball drops in NYC on New Years Eve.

We didn't hear of him having a wife until "A Flight to Remember." Actually, though, Dwight was one of the Munchkins in "Anthology of Interest II," and made a brief appearance in "A Leela of Her Own."

Given the title of the episode, it sounds like the father is Elzaar. BAM!

I've seen this episode at a convention, and it's very quite funny. The second plotline in this episode deal with Fry, Leela, and Bender making their own micro-brew

This is actually an episode from Season 3 that those bast*rds at FOX never showed, due to pre-empting I'd imagine. About 5 or 6 episodes from the next season will actually be old episodes which were never shown from seasons 3 and 4.
