Futurama Cancelled

[Yabby]

I lost my shit during this part, but then again i lost it a lot on this ep.

Edit: I like that they both have the same gun as well.

I'm gonna go with Amy getting sluttier simply based on the fact that they can get away with more on cable.

he has a badass VA, not suprised he nailed it.

The professor still doesn't feel quite right, but I guess it was better here than in previous episodes. He's just not senile, or just plain old enough for my liking. In the past, he may have gone on an adventure like this, but probably not without tremendously more old jokes (him taking naps or getting distracted for example), or at least getting more genuinely confused moments. The part where he gets sent through the contraption and ends up on the chair utterly confused was a perfect example, but unfortunately a very isolated one. Still, he's getting better, and the totality of the episode was still amazing; the story was very good and I'm really satisfied with pretty much every other character in their current incarnation.

Eh, I take it as Groening or his writers being out of practice with the characters for so long. It had been seven years since the show was cancelled, and even in the movies the prof wasn't his old crotchety self.

lol, I had no idea he was also Marcus from Gears of War. Only other stuff I had recognized him in was Under the Red Hood and FFX.

Looking around Wikipedia I also saw that Billy West was Ren AND Stimpy, and Doug from uh... Doug. Dear god, I've been watching that mans work nearly my entire life.

I never thought about it this way, but you are probably right.

This is probably why they have so many more sex jokes as well.

He's also the red M&M and played Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd in a number of works including Space Jam. Awesome VAs in Futurama all over.

I read an interview with David X. Cohen at the AV Club where he talked about how they can get away with more now. Check out how skimpy the leaves are in episode 2.

[kuronosan]

This is on cable, of course they can get away with more.

I still liked the fact that Futurama had no choice but to be subtle about their humor when it was a network show.

[Kaisha]

Can someone explain the difference between a network and cable show for me? All I know regarding cable is that I never see that shit until a month or so later in Canada.
(thank god for the internet)

Network: NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX
Cable: HBO, Comedy Network, TBS

Essentially, Network channels are over-the-air channels that are accessed more easily and come with the basic TV packages. Cable channels are specific to channels that are only provided by Dish services or Digital Cable and because they have to be specifically included in your Dish/Cable package, they have more freedom for the content they can air as opposed to Network Shows that come with basic cable and have a lot more restrictions.

Something like that.

Essentially for us Canadians: We get NBC, CBS, etc, etc through our regular cable packages. But to get HBO or G4TV or whatever, we gotta pay more for that channel or whatever package that Channel comes with.

i get HBO HD for free on shaw, and everything airs the same time it does for the US, not sure what TV provider you are using but you are doing it wrong.

[kuronosan]

Since network TV is free over the air and anyone can view it, it is heavily regulated by the FCC. The content viewed is the responsibility of the networks, since children and other ignorant masses can be influenced by it. Cable channels are a service that must be paid for, which places the responsibility of viewing the channel on the shoulders of the person paying the bill.

That is why network television is usually heavily censored or edited for content and HBO and other cable networks are curse-filled nudity-driven programming utopias.

Unless your name is Comedy Central, in which case you sell out your content when anyone with brown skin gets in a huff.

I don't know when she became this slutty all of the sudden, it was never that central to her character.

Amy was always ridiculously slutty, but they weren't as overt about it in the past. I'm sure if you were to go back and count all the characters she's slept with (or tried to sleep with) on the show, the list would be incredibly large.
