Don Del Grande spewed forth in news:[email] on 23 Feb 2002:

I don't really follow Futurama anymore, but is that a repeat? I seem to remember an episode similar to that one.

Yes, it's a repeat from the second season.

Of course, when Fox puts Futurama in a time slot when someone might be watching, they schedule a rerun from two years ago...

Cheers,

"The Old Man and The Sea" wins the prize for most episodes punning it.

Perhaps those were the ones Homer was trying to prevent in "The Bart Wants what it Wants (DABF06)?" Unless Shelbyville won a Summer Olympics, in which case the games won't happen until 2004. (At least, in the "Simpsons" universe.)
