The day when Futurama first aired in 1999.

KazzahdraneMar 28th 2004, 20:38

Futurama's fifth birthday! It didn't air in the UK for a while later in the year, but I'm happy to say my favourite show is 5 years old today anyway :)

It's the 25th anniversary of the beginning of the nuclear meltdown at Three Mile Island, too. The plant's about 20 miles from my house.

That was an exciting week, kids, let me tell ya.

And there's still all them damn 3-eyed fish in the Susquehanna River. . .

I knew that March 28, 1999 was the date that Futurama first started. I managed to force myself to remember that date. I also know that Aug 10, 2003 was the day that we fans will live in infamy.

I just wish that cartoon network, just for fun would air SP3K tonight since it is a Sunday and the exact date, but I doubt that.

FRinGesMar 28th 2004, 21:18

wheres the cake?

ChrisEdwardsMar 28th 2004, 21:24

yay! It's my birthday too!!! I'll have a drink tonight for fry, leela, and the gang :)

The day Futurama first aired.

JeremyFeinMar 29th 2004, 00:37

It was the day of the robot holocaust...........OHHHHHHHHHHHHH what a nightmare that week was, for one month only the robots ruled the earth for a total 365 days a minute.........If only Cartoon Network and Matt G And David C will bring back out favorite Animated Show Clerks........I meant Futurama.......Yeah Futurama that's it.......A cartoon show starring classic characters from a Cult Kevin Smith Film.........Nahhhhhhh Can't see it........But I do see Futurama back on the small or big screen by 2006.

ZeepMar 29th 2004, 00:59

Quantum Leap premiered 15 years ago this week too. I think on March 26th, which was Friday. So it's a good week for sci fi all around.

steveMar 30th 2004, 11:24

"the day? why, its christmas day!"

KazzahdraneMar 30th 2004, 15:05

Wow, I always thought Quantum Leap was a lot older than that. But then I guess if it was then Scott would be too old to play Archer in Enterprise.

adenMar 31st 2004, 00:07

I Have Nothing To Say Here, But God Made It Rain Today, And That Is Sad. God Hates All Of You For Your Sins and Transgressions, Just Yesterday, I Ran Out Of Toilet Paper, So I Used The Bible. It's Thin Slick Pages Didn't Pick Up As Much A TP, But It Worked.

SpleeApr 13th 2004, 22:05

March 28th is TOTALLY my birthday!

I'm so proud to be born on the same day my favorite show began. It means it was fated!

Splee.
