Hey everyone.
Tonight's an all new Futurama on Comedy Central. This week's episode is from the keyboard of friend of the site, Eric Rogers, whose first full episode, last season's Silence of the Clamps, gained him a Writers Guild Award nomination. The episode is directed by Frank Marino(Rebirth). 10pm/9c tonight!

You should be aware, though, if you're a DirecTV customer you may need to find a friend's house to watch it at due the current dispute between them and Viacom.

After the show be sure to go to Futurama's Comedy Central Page to take part in a live webcast with Futurama creators Matt Groening & David X Cohen alongside cast members Billy West, John DiMaggio and Maurice LaMarche. Details here.
