Upcoming "Futurama" Episodes
-----------------------------------------------------------
12/ 9 - NEW EPISODE - Roswell That Ends Well (3ACV19)
    Thanks to a supernova and the Planet Express ship's microwave,
    the ship is sent back in time to 1947, where it lands in Roswell,
    New Mexico, and Fry (with Bender's head) has to free the captured
    Dr. Zoidberg (with Bender's body), who is being held at a base
    by, among other people, Fry's grandfather

Most cities in the Eastern and Central time zones will see Futurama in its entirety, unless the local Fox station decides to show the Washington-Arizona game, in which case it will be joined in progress. The exceptions:

Full episode (* means there is a slight chance it will be in progress): Atlanta*, Buffalo*, Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas*, Detroit, Green Bay*, Kansas City*, New Orleans, New York, Pittsburgh*, St. Louis*, Tampa*

In progress (* means there is a slight chance it will be a full episode): Boston*, Cincinnati*, Cleveland, Jacksonville, Memphis, Minneapolis*, Philadephia*, Washington

Note that cities where the episode is marked "joined in progress" may move the episode to a different time if the late game runs too long

12/16 - Another Fox NFL doubleheader day; stations in the Mountain and Pacific time zones will get "Mother's Day"

12/23 - SPECIAL TIME - DOUBLE FEATURE 9:00 - Xmas Story (2ACV04) He doesn't need lists - He doesn't think twice - And he won't care if you're naughty or nice - Santa Claus will kill you this year, if you're out after sundown on Christmas Eve...which is where Fry is, trying to do some last-minute Christmas shopping

9:30 - A Tale Of Two Santas (3ACV03) In the long-awaited-but-considered-too-violent-for-7:00 second Christmas episode, Fry, Leela, and Bender deliver Children's letters to Santa to his headquarters on Neptune, where they help the elves take over the factory, but they need a robot to deliver the toys, so Bender dresses up as Santa and makes his rounds...to an Earth that still treats Santa as evil

(Note that a "King of the Hill" repeat will air at 7:00)

On Sun, 9 Dec 2001, [�Cool] stated this considered view. Waking from my doze, I hastily scrawled -

I wouldn't say that - we non-Americans do get videos & DVD's of our fav shows long before the US does. :)
