3/2 - Less Than Hero (4ACV04)
    Fry and Leela turn into superheroes, thanks to Dr. Zoidberg's
    "miracle cream"

*** NOTE SCHEDULE CHANGE *** 3/ 9 - PRE-EMPTED for a Simpsons repeat (and a third airing of an episode at that)

3/16 - Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles (4ACV09)
    Professor Farnsworth's "youth treatment" works a little too well;
    it turns the crew into teenagers
    (it appears that "Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles" is the title
    after all)

*** NOTE *** There is a spoiler for the Futurama calendar below this, so if you want to stay surprised, don't read past the next paragraph (it's not much of a spoiler, so you don't get much spoiler space)

GOOF ON THE SIMPSONS CALENDAR? I think the March page of the 2003 USA Simpsons calendar is mistaken; it says that the picture is the cast of "Oh, Streetcar!" singing "their hellish ode to New Orleans", but as the streetcar is in the middle of the stage with Marge on board, I think it's a picture of the finale ("A Stranger's Just a Friend You Haven't Met").

WHILE I'M AT IT... This isn't as much a goof as it is a reference: the April page of the 2003 USA Futurama calendar has the cover of a "Little Leela" comic, with young versions of Leela, Fry, and Bender. Unless there's a "youth treatment" explanation, "young Fry" lived 1000 years before "young Leela" was born - but in the Archie comic books, "The Little Archies" included a "little Sabrina" despite the fact that Sabrina moved to Riverdale when she was in high school (and nobody knew who she was, so she didn't live there as a child and then move away). (And yes, I know the title is probably a reference to "Little Lulu")

Don Del Grande, [email] That was close...Fox almost showed two new Futurama episodes in a row

I agree, it was better than some of the current simpsons episodes but not much better.

Just got to watch this one tonight. As much as I enjoy Futurama, I have to agree - it sucked.

It wasnt that bad, it was much better than most of the Simpson episodes that have aired this year.
