No new Futurama this Sunday
from gotfuturama.com:
FOX Network changed their mind about showing Futurama this Sunday and now scheduled a third run of Marge Simpson getting breast implants to show in its place. The episode first aired in November 2002 and then again as recently as the 300th episode Sunday in February.
The week afterwards (03/26) will be Futurama-free, too. The Oscar ceremonies are countered by FOX airing "True Lies", which incidentally pre-empted Futurama one year ago on 03/25, too.
Now there are 9 Sundays left till end of May on which Futurama could air but 10 episodes remaining...
UPDATE: 03/30 lists "Futurama - Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles" but I'm not going to believe that anytime soon. It's also the same Sunday on which "The Pitts" is poised to premiere and use up one of Malcom's slots. Meanwhile, TVGiudeLive lists Futurama as "On indefinite hiatus".

comeon, we don't need to see that episode again do we. Yeah, only like 3 or 4 million people watch the show, but those 3 and 4 million have been f**kin pissed off at fox and won't take it anymore.

Geez, what's with Fox. I was sitting back ready to watch Futurama when a repeat of a repeat Simpsons episode airs!
And then the new Simpsons episode features Homer and Marge on Valentine's Day night. Are they showing episodes out of order again?

Nah, the end of the Simpson's had Homer's "305th Everything's-Back-To-Normal Barbeque" so I don't think it's out of order.

Thanks.
It just seemed kinda odd watching a Valentine's Day scene the day before St. Patrick's Day - had a deju vu "what day is this???" experience similar to when I watch the repeat Halloween Treehouse episodes in the middle of winter.
