Gotta love the professor.

Bender is an obvious favorite, along with Clamps.

im not talking about syndication, they have restarted alot of shows that have been removed from the air, one of the more recent ones was outer limits, and many others

Actually, that outer limits thing is a modern revival. If Futerama comes back in super hyper 3-D in 30-40 years, then its a modern revival.

Just let it go, Family Guy is really unique, it got cut, it got brought back, I can't think up anything else thats done that.

Psrdirector · 09-07-2004, 08:07 PM

it isnt unique, and im not talking about sydication, so stop trying to convence me off what i am saying, cause you dont know what it is.
Family is a realy bad show end of discusion

i always liked the buracrat, he was fun. so many good memories

Ok, let me list what you might be talking about, because I and others know you are wrong.

Syndication: A show gets played on other channels and networks in rerun land. This happens usually after a sizeable episode resevoir is built, since playing a rerun a day can burn through seasons pretty fast. So it usually happens after the second or third season, or after the show is cancelled/ended. SEE; Futurama, Friends, Seinfeld, etc

Modern Revival: An old show gets a facelift, with better visuals and the such. Things like Twilight Zone and Outer Limits.

Bring Back: A show gets cancelled, canned, stricken from its home netowrk and 'dammned' to syndication. Then, for some reason, the home network decides to make new episodes. To my knowledge, only Family Guy, although I hear rumblings that some shows we're getting a Bring Back.

Now, name another show that experienced a Bring Back.

And, to discuss an earlier Futurama point, I didn't really like the Star Trek episode. I'm not a big Trekkie, although I did get most of the jokes I think, but it also had this big plot hole of how, in all the earlier episodes, Fry kept blabbing about Star Trek and nobody said anything, then BAM, can't talk about it at all.

Ny favorite is the Brain one, where Fry was our hero.

Fry: Ok, our first president was WASHINGTON, WASHINGTON, got it? (holding Washington head)
*the gang sits around and stares off into space while thinking heavily*
Fry: So, who was our first President?
All: Ummm...
Zoidberg: A pickle jar?
Washington Head: Thomas Jefferson?

The werecar was good too.

Hermes: Someone you know must have died.
Bender: I hope it was one of my enemies, those guys suck.

AndyBloodredMage · 09-07-2004, 08:33 PM

I liked the one where fry gets the robot devil's hands. The line the robot devil said about his ridiculously long-winded plan being one fourth completed was priceless. And the hedonism bot.

cartoon network has a lot of them, they will have a show on for a bit, then cancle it, then bring it back sometimes. Megas is one such show. And you cant say i am wrong, it is an opinion that family guy sucks, and unless you are me you cant say it is wrong
