I didn't think there was any real way to get around the issue though, cause it's coming from something that is 24fps (or 23.97 or whatever it is) and being put into 25fps. If you just repeat the last frame twice you get judder so most dvds just get sped up so that the 24fps fit over 25fps.

Ahhh... I thought you were talking about 25<->30 frames which is a much bigger difference.

With Craig Ferguson starring as Susan!

I really fucking enjoyed it, but the GAF thread has a lot of people being unhappy with it... fuckheads.

I really liked the first two eps, much better than the movies.

3rd ep wasn't bad either - pilon pretty much otm, last half was a bit weak, first half was great. Still enjoyed it though.

Looked awesome in 720p too.

Yeah, the whole Susan thing was a bit week. I'm also curious about why they put Flexo in the episode for 10 seconds, just to write him out of the rest of the series. I'd love to see him make another appearance.

Why would that stop Flexo from coming back? It was just a quick 10 second gag. He'll come back with the *gasp* "Flexo I thought you were dead?" and a witty retort about why he's not dead.

I thought the 3rd episode was great. I thought the Susan Boil bit was classic. I thought at first it was kind of dumb as I thought it was going to be Leela had a mutant siamese twin sister on her butt and never told anyone. But the Susan Boyle reference was great.

There's been a lot of hate for this episode which I just don't understand I thought it was right on the mark. The whole eyePhone thing couldn't have been timed better.

I don't understand why she needed to launch the TwitWorm. She already had the market... she didn't do anything with it.

Other than that, it was enjoyable.

The Susan thing annoyed me ONLY because the previous week they had Leela walk around with a naked ass for 10 minutes and there was no mention of it.

"They cut off one of my dimensions" is one of my favourite lines in the series now.

Yeah I actually thought that it must have been a two part episode at first.

The fourth episode is by far the best one yet.

Yeah? It was good but I didn't think it was overly great. I think it got overhyped for me. I'm staying away from the Internet from now on.

I think the characters were a bit off (Amy specifically) but in terms of laughter it was the best so far for me.

20 minutes suits Futurama perfectly.

I'm enjoyed these quite a lot. I imagine if they have enough time to get a run of them going they'll get even better.

Latest episode is fucking awesome. Not quite as many laugh-out-loud moments as others, but really good chemistry between Hermes and Bender and a really touching ending. Almost as much as Fryrish.

It's still not up there with Jurassic Bark.

YOU CALL THAT AN INK DEFENSE?

So glad this is back and just as good as ever.

Bark is overrated. It's the episode you reference when you want to sound like you know what sort of emotional connection Futurama can make.

Last two eps were really good. The Da Vinci episode is my favourite so far. It was just joke after joke. I also like the last two eps because it has just centred on two characters. No side line stories, just one pure story.

I hope they can keep this up.
