Yeah Frank, I had to set the tivo to start 2 minutes early. Annoying. Can Adult Swim not tell time?

If you go to their web site and try to check the upcoming schedule, they've formatted it in the most annoying, unreadable way possible, so it may be deliberate fuckery on their part.

I dug the cringeworthy parts of the most recent episode. Glad they didn't let Dr Venture get it on with his half-sister, though.

And yeah, Adult Swim's been starting those episodes as much as three minutes early, the fuckers. I had to reprogram the DVR to start that early and keep recording in case they go late.

with his half-sister

Huh. Was that explicitly stated? It's really easy to miss bits of dialog.

No, it wasn't explicit. But she was a) a red-head, although neither of her parents were, b) drawn with the same eyes and nose as Dr. Venture, and c) her mother was having an affair with Dr. Jonas Venture, while d) Col. Gentleman was interested in other men. I think they didn't want to make it explicit, but they expected the viewers to catch on.

I blame fried brain due to heatwave.

Pffft. You don't know heat, yankee.

Come up here during a blizzard sometime, ranger.

I'm powerful a-feared of this strange phenomenon you folks call "snow."

I gave into temptation and bought the new Futurama movie at the store yesterday, and watched it with greatest pleasure -- it felt more like the old series than the first movie, seriously!

(Also it looks like from the preview of the next one, they'll be doing something of a LotR parody.)

Probably true, but I'm going to bet we know all about humidity.

Pulls snow ball out of the freezer and throws it at ND.
