As I said in my initial post, the TV airings were pan & scan, so the widescreen DVDs show more picture.

And I'll be re-creating the credits as best I can using credits from older episodes, but with the new names and episode numbers and such.

And there are short "Previously on Futurama" segments at the beginning of Parts 2, 3, and 4 of each respective "movie" (and the beginning of The Beast with a Billion Backs: Part 1, since Bender's Big Score ended on a cliffhanger).

--edit--

Just discovered that The Beast with a Billion Backs: Parts 1-4 will be airing on Comedy Central on Monday, June 15 at 9 PM Eastern time (at least I assume it's Eastern time). I'll be able to record it myself, I'd just hoped that others would be able to locate recordings of the TV versions that were already online.

So, I guess TBwaBB will be my first attempt at this. Which is good, since my copy of Bender's Big Score is fucked up.
