"And this is how it must end?" - Bender
If people protest the detail cutting too much in the comments, I might add more using a spoiler box, though I really think you should go into this episode without too much pre-knowledge.Fry, in an effort to win Leela's love, makes a deal with the Robot Devil to become a gifted musician. He has tried to take Holophoner lessons, but his teacher claimed he had "stupid fingers." Bender realizes that the Robot Devil is the only one to help. Fry makes a deal only to regret it immediately as it comes with a hefty price.

Ode to Futurama on Associated Press
For a change, the author seems to know what he's talking about and even cites multiple episodes. Looks like there are fans among the AP staffers, too.A prediction: Viewers eons from now will give "Futurama" the credit it deserves today. [...]
Matt Groening's big "Simpsons" follow-up, "Futurama" has always been overshadowed by his brilliant first-born.
Who knows why? The verbal humor, sight gags, wicked cultural jabs and general irreverence that make "The Simpsons" great are found full-strength on "Futurama," as is spectacular voice talent [...]
What's more, "Futurama" took a bold step beyond "The Simpsons" [...] to take on the entire universe from a vantage point a thousand years away.

The humor, the plot twists, the characters! You can't believe a show like this has been on the air for years and you've never heard of it! As you stare blankly into the set, you become more and more engrossed by the second. Just before your eyes are allowed to view the exciting conclusion, static can be heard as wavy lines appear throughout the screen. You bang the television-no use-the show is gone and can't be brought back.

Last Few New Futuramas On Sundays
So, it is infact not a sequal to "Bend Her", but a separate episode about a separate Bender upgrade.When Fry, Bender and the Planet Express gang attend Roboticon 3003 - the world's largest robot trade show - the Professor purchases the new "Robot 1-X", which threatens to render Bender obsolete. Feeling inadequate, Bender returns to MomCorp for an upgrade, but becomes terrified that the procedure will erase his robo-humanity. In desperation, he escapes from the factory and becomes a castaway on a tropical island that seems uninhabited... or is it? Violence ensues.

Comic-Con Update
It's still uncertain if this is going to be a 100% Futurama discussion or joined with a Simpsons discussion, they might have said "Simpsons" because so many producers and writers work on both shows. Also unclear is whether or not they will show an unaired Futurama episode, though I'm still leaning towards a "yes" judging from past cons. I'm hoping to get more information on this on Monday.Matt Groening, a Comic-Con special guest, sits down with some of his voice cast and crew members of both Futurama and The Simpsons, from 12:00-2:00 p.m.
New episode 'Bend Her' on July 20th
This fourth last episode is now officially scheduled to air on Sunday, July 20 at 7PM on FOX.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".
Futurama on TBS for Summer
Starting next Monday (the 7th) Futurama will replace 'Fresh Prince of Bel Air' at 2PM and be followed up by Family Guy at 2:30PM ET. Their schedule page does not yet reflect that change though."FUTURAMA and THE FAMILY GUY have proven to be stellar hits among adults 18-34 for the late-night Cartoon Network Adult Swim crowd, and we are confident they will prove to be equally popular during the afternoons on TBS Superstation."
