Just a friendly reminder, Futurama returns to Comedy Central tonight. And while I made a joke about setting your DVR, please watch it live. Particularly if you are a Neilsen family. It’s only going to stay around if you watch the show, and the networks still think it only counts if you watch it live, and not record it on your DVR and watch it later. I think this is foolish, but whatever. At any rate, the Futurama’s triumphant return is tonight at 10pm eastern time. Try not to miss it people. [via SciFi Squad] → Read More

Reruns of the cult favorite will switch from Cartoon Network to Comedy Central on 1/1/08. Oh, and the new episodes will be in HD. Stoked. → Read More

Everyone got all hot and bothered when Apple dropped the price of its iPhone a few weeks back, but a New Yorker got so mad that she has filed suit against both Apple and AT&T. The woman—Dongmei Li, surely you’ve heard of her—says Apple broke a bunch of laws when it dropped the price of the iPhone, that she can’t sell her iPhone for the same profits as Johnny Come Lately, etc. Good for her. Actually, no; nuts to her. Where does she get off suing Apple because of her decision to buy an iPhone? Stupid lawsuit-happy country. I hope it goes to trial and her attorney is that giant chicken from Futurama and all he does is peck at the floor. Apple, AT&T sued over iPhone price cut [Macworld] → Read More

I know this is neither gear or gadget, but it’s sweet nerd news and let’s face it, you people are nerds. Mark November 27 on your calendar and clear out your entire schedule because Futurama is making a return to the small screen. It won’t be joining Family Guy on FOX, though. Comedy Central will be its new home and the first four episodes will actually be released on DVD as features with “Bender’s Big Score” being the first. Reruns will begin airing on CC starting January 1, 2008 with new episodes to follow. The original cast, writers and artists are back on board and the new episodes will include more nudity AND animation takes a step up to HD. A nude Leela in HD could be interesting if you’re into purple-haired cyclopes. ‘Futurama’: Now with more cartoon nudity [Zap2it] → Read More
