Can't get enough Futurama
In Color

Sky|One at it again *updated*

Looks like the British channel Sky|One is at it again:
Instead of a new season 4 episode they'll show a rerun of the season 3 episode The Day the Earth Stood Stupid on June 2nd. Thanks to 'PCC Fred' for telling me that.

We ought to be thankful, at least Futurama is still being given air time.

I the World Cup is to blame then fair play, all be it very annoying. It shouldn't have ever came to this, had it not been for Fox stating the season so late (December 9th!) then we wouldn't have had it so late either.

Let's clear some things up. First of all, Futurama being off the air has nothing to do with the World Cup, because:

1)SKY don't have World Cup TV rights
2)SKY ONE don't show sports anyway
3)SKY ONE are still showing new episodes of Angel and Enterprise
4)In the UK, the World Cup matches will be finished by mid-afternoon, and the highlights shows are normally late evening.

Secondly, if the documentary is the one I'm thinking of (and I'm 99% sure that it is), SKY ONE have already shown it at least twice before, and much of it was culled to make the "featurettes" in the DVD boxset.
