Damn Fox! I didn’t know **Futurama** was going to be on this week, and certainly not at 7! They’re throwing everything behind **M in the M** , and I refuse to watch that. I can take a lot in animation ( **Simpsons, South Park** ) but not in life action. GRRR! Well, hopefully, this episode will run one more time before the show is cancelled. Does anyone like **M in the M** (I won’t give it free advertising by posting the full title)? If so, why? * * * Remember, I’m pulling for you; we’re all in this together. —Red Green ---

Why do you say they will cancel Futurama? You’re freaking me out. Say it’s not so! Cite your sources! It was a funny episode. (and M in the M is pretty good-- they’ll move it to Monday or whenever the 70’s thing is, I’ll bet.) ---

Futurama was on tonight???

I’m pissed. I wanted to watch _Futurama_ and missed it because of the schedule change. Hell, I was wasting my time watching the Pro Bowl at seven. As for _Malcolm in the Middle_, it doesn’t work for me. I’ve started to watch it twice and both times lost interest halfway through. It doesn’t seem to be all that bad a show, but almost any sit-com is going to seem a let-down following _The Simpsons_. My suggestion; bring back _Duckman_. ---

_Malcolm in the Middle_ is quite funny to me, but still not nearly as hilarious as _Futurama_. Tonight’s episode was FUNNY. Malcolm tonight was…amusing. If they cancel _Futurama,_ I’m hunting them down and shooting Cheesy Poofs at them. Oh, wait, that’s _South Park_. Fine, I’ll shoot reproductive jelly at them. * * * _formerly known as LauraRae_ I’m a Raggety Ann in a Barbie Doll world. [Laura’s Stuff and Things](http://members.aol.com/lrconaway) ---

I don’t think they will cancel Futurama, but I was able to watch tonight’s episode because I did one simple act. I looked at my TV guide and saw that it was at its NEW time. Sorry to be rude. But I think both shows are great and I wouldn’t worry about it too much, their Sunday lineup is pretty strong. * * * “The idea of a walk-in closet sounds frightening.

Futurama kicks major ass, but that one episode with where Slurm soda really comes from had me gagging and laughing my ass off at the same time.
