New episode 'Bend Her' on July 20th

After announcing the new episode "Spanish Fry" for the 13th a few days ago, I now got the long drescription for "Bend Her":
Bender faces his greatest challenge when he tricks his way into the 3004 Earth Olympian and wins several events, but he must endure the final and most revealing test to receive his medals. When Bender has a date with a major robot celebrity, Calculon, he sees this as an opportunity to be wined and dined like never before. When Bender realizes there's an inequity of feelings, he enlists Fry's and Leela's help to stage a "soap opera death".
This fourth last episode is now officially scheduled to air on Sunday, July 20 at 7PM on FOX.

Update: The episode guide now has a picture from this episode with female Bender ("Coilette") and Calculon in a spa.

They can change those kinds of things at the last minute. Maybe they wanted to be consistent to the end.

I know for a fact that the Season One re-runs will go on to atleast Hell is Other Robots. That's only one more week, but they may go in for longer, I don't know when more new episodes will start again.

Lol, Bender on a date with Calculon. It will be fun to see how Bender acts. Can't wait to see the rest of the episodes.

Odd. They skipped over the year 3003, or maybe the last few shows it was the year 3003. Oh well, I guess if The Simpsons can get away with having the characters celebrating the same holiday a few times over and all of them beening the same ages since the show began then I guess it is o.k. After all, it is only a cartoon or primetime animation if you want to call it that.

This episode have too take place in the year 3004. There would not be any olympic gams in the year 3003. There is the olympic games every 2nd year. And next in real life is next year (2004).

And i`am really looking forward too this episode:)

This ep sounds great. I know that ages ago it was suggested that the next ep "Obseletely Fabulous" would be a sort of follow up to "Bend Her". Any news on that?
