I'm both a Conan O'Brien fan and a Futurama fan. But Futurama had the flaw of only having one very funny episode every other week, while the rest were completely stupid. By far the Conan O'Brien show has the best jokes of the late night circuit. That show has given us such memorable characters as Triumph the dog and Pimpbot 2000. But I stopped watching the show after Andy Richter left and have only caught a few episodes since then. The best thing about the show was Conan's monologue and joke segments, after the celebrities came on I turned the channel. But sometimes Conan managed to turn a boring celebrity-interview into something hilarious.

totally agree with you there!

i wonder if Conan will do a similar Triumph skit for the release of Episode III as he did for II...
what do you guys think?

Actually, I think Family Guy is returning to FOX (or whatever net carried it). It's already on Cartoon Network, albeit in reruns. But I think the new eps are coming to FOX with an exclusive arrangement with Toon Net to air them close to the same time. Much like how USA and ABC concurrently air episodes of Monk.

I believe the new episodes are coming to Cartoon Network. Or at least I hope Fox doesn't deserve the show. Still I was a much bigger fan of Futurama then Family guy and I hope we get new episodes of that show on Cartoon Network someday. Who can forget Benders drunken stealing, Zapp Branigans babbling, murderour roboting Santa, its all so so funny and clever.

Futurama was good. Family Guy had its moments, but overall, it wasn't as good as Futurama. I agree.

Much like South Park: some really brilliant episodes, but some real head-scratchers, too.

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

I had trouble understanding the appeal of Family Guy for the most part. For every "bar in the basement" episode, we get three or four stinkers.

ahhhhhhhhh man you guys are really missing out...
well he pretty much just made fun of the fans outside the theatre...
if youve ever seen any triumph skits he uses the same kinda comedy he would in all....

it is a must download if you can get it off kazza...
i would go through it but i would only ruin his jokes...

put it this way
u like star wars? u like triumph? if both of those were yes then its worth the download!

This is DJR we're talking about and he used a winking emoticon. He's talking about a menage a trois. Mark my words.

I'll put it this way, anyway that suits them.

Edit: And yes I think NP and ESB/ROTJ CF are both beautiful and enlightened in their own right or whatever the hell motti_soL was saying.
