They actually showed an excellent new episode of Futurama!
How did they run out of infomercials, pimp-tv reality shows, reruns of other shows, car races, baseball games, sports specials, vapid movies, professional monkey wrestling, and preview of whats on other channels. It just shows, you can only beat a show down for so long before you get bored and forget to preempt it.
Other then that, this was a truly remarkable episode, showing both wackiness and emotional depth. Plus giant space wasps.
