Foolish humans without cable may purchase the first season of _Futurama_ on DVD March 25. Of course, without cable, humans probably don’t have DVD player, either. Morbo dislikes all forms of entertainment. (I never realized the similarity in names, \*_Zoggie_. Thanks for the laugh.)

Morbo never understood Fox. That probably why Morbo ate Rupert Murdoch’s head.

Mo[r]bo85, who can identify the letter that looks like a little man with a hat.

Morbo never understood Stupid Age VB coding, either.

Huh? That sounds like the one I saw two weeks ago. Leela becomes a superhero, has to reveal her secret to her mutant parents, who then blab about it to their sewer-dwelling friends, it gets back to the supervillain, etc.?

Rock on, **mo[r]bo**.

Actually, that’s a separate episode. I don’t remember what it was called, but they’re different. In this new one that we were supposed to see, the crew de-ages. That is, they become really young. The Professor becomes middle aged. \<growls\> And we miss it.

Last episode was good, though. Bender’s superking was fandango! And Captain Yesterday…🙂
