Can't get enough Futurama
In Color

New Futurama This Sunday

Don't forget to watch the Futurama episode "Bend Her" at 7PM on FOX tonight. 3 more episodes to go after this one.

On an unrelated note: Anyone who went to SD Comic Con yesterday and saw the Futurama panel, we'd like to get a mind protocol/transcript and pictures to publish here. So get busy. Accounts by panelists are welcome, too
Our own crew got stuck in traffic and one hell of a line of admission.

Yay! TV set was quiet most of the week. Have you notice little graphics for Banzai was on the bottom of the screen when Futurama was show last week? Honestly why in the hell are they infecting Banzai in Futurama? Beside the fact that Fox hates Futurama because we all know that too well.

It's because Banzai is the son they never had, and Futurama is their up-to-no-good slacker son. So FOX is using the good son against the bad son by rubbing in the bad son's face that he's a slacker and will never amount to anything and FOX loves Banzai more.

But few 'up-to-no-good slacker sons' won the Emmy, don't they? Fox must be a terrible mother.

FOX is a crack whore mother. "Banzai" will steal her money and leave her in the gutter. She will regret how she drove her good son away, leaving her with nothing.

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know if/which new Futurama ep aired at the comic con?

The same thing happened to me that! I left my house 2 hours early so I could get there in time (I live in San Diego). Then I got stuck in traffic the whole way down the freeway, then in downtown. It took forever to find where the convention center parking was, then when I did, IT WAS FULL! I was so mad. I found another place, which was pretty far way, that charged me $14. While I was paying for it it was 12:00, so I knew I was already missing part of the Futurama panel. So from that parking lot I RAN as fast as I could to the convention center, only to find that the line to get in was 2 hours long. I tired cutting, but got bitched at by people on both sides. If I would have went to the back of the line I would have completely missed the Futurama and Simpsons panels, so I just said screw it. It was a sad day for me!

This is funny

BANZAI PROTEST: An Asian-American media group says Fox's new comedy Banzai demeans and stereotypes Asian people, and the dissenters staged a protest Thursday at the TCA press tour to voice their anger. In reponse to the controversy, Fox Entertainment President Gail Berman said, "Well, the show itself is a parody of Japanese game shows. Certainly, we think the bulk of the audience has understood that."

wasn't this garbage show on USA before?

Futurama VS Crapy english Banzai program(i like Banzai, Mr. Shake-a-hand)
place bets now.

I just realized something that Banzai will just go away if nobody cares. Just like the Fox network will go away after Futurama is gone. So I am suggesting that everyone just shut off Fox network and forget that Banzai ever existed when the final Futurama will air. Also maybe Gail Berman will realized how much she is a bitch and quit television forever after the fall of the Fox Network status.

Great episode as usual for the greatest animation show on a crappy network!

Unfortunatley I think you guys are stuck with Banzai for a long time - here in England we've had its awfulness for about three seasons now. (although its not even on the same channel as Futurama over here so it doesn't interfere)...still, there's a lot of nonsense that Fox has paid for....
