Added 2019-10-25 07:00:02 +0000 UTCTalking Futurama is back, baby! You voted (and paid) for it, so we're proud to present the first of ten new Talking Futurama episodes! Our second season premiere brings a truly disgusting story of toilets, emotions, and legendary sub-sewer monsters that's all fueled by Bender learning how to feel empathy by being forced to feel empathy. All this, and also terrifying tales of how poorly Fox mistreated Futurama at the end of the millennium! Find your podcast-listening sombrero and get ready for our second miniseries of 2019!

Depends on the region. Star Trek: Disco was on Netflix in the UK, for example. CBS All Access being exclusive for Picard is a US Region thing. So depending on where you live, the show being on Amazon Prime or Netflix is perfectly cromulent

2019-11-10 14:44:59 +0000 UTCKudos on the research done regarding Data's emotion chip but wanted to point out that the new Picard series will be on Amazon Prime, not CBS All Access. Don't ask me how or why CBS would allow easily one of the most anticipated new Star Trek shows featuring the return of one its most beloved characters to be shown on another streaming service, when everyone is already joking about how nobody wants CBS All Access. I'd read that they're strategy was to be the all-star trek all-the-time and to have multiple Trek shows running at all times but that only means they're assured of American Trekkies signing up, as everywhere outside the US, such as New Zealand where I live, gets the new Star Trek shows like Discovery on Netflix. It may have something to do with Paramount owning the rights to the Trek movies while CBS maintains the rights to the TV series which has caused no small amount of uproar to pedants like myself about the discontinuity between the films and the series. JJ Abrams movies were legally obligated to redesign the Enterprise from the series to avoid infringing rights. Live long and please keep Quentin Tarantino away from Star Trek.

2019-11-04 02:47:29 +0000 UTCI feel Bob's pain about showing the episode and being the only person laughing. I've been in that position before, even offering to watch something else when I realized they were not a fan. I think to a certain group of people cartoons are kid's stuff, even in our generation. I remember someone was baffled to see I owned The Lion King (animated version, of course) on DVD. Having said that, maybe this isn't the best episode to show to a skeptic. The characters spend a lot of time in the sewers with mutants and there are numerous toilet jokes. The plopping sound in particular could be bad. Maybe something like "A Flight to Remember" or "Fear of a Bot Planet" would've played better.
