The throw-up warning is in full effect with the premiere episode having gender bending, with everyone!

Also notable is the season finale, which will be like an "Anthology of Interest" episode with one segment done in anime style. And surprisingly, it's going to have a Voltron parody that may actually look more like Voltron then a certain revival that came out recently.

Anime Leela and Bender

The anime designs are actually pretty funny, though they missed the opportunity to go gainax on Leela.

...you wanted to watch Jem over Futurama? :blink:

I liked "Benderama" more than the first one. Lots of zingers and the whole planet getting drunk won me over. Also, I hope there's a reason why they mixed up the order of the episodes this season.

And stranger yet still, didn't find Futurama hilarious when compared with it...

So did anyone catch tonight's episode/season finale "Reincarnation?" In the third segment, I know I caught the "Alien Attack" theme from Robotech, the Battle of the Planets main theme, and some Voltron music as well. I know I'm missing some. Anyone else recognize anything else?

What I'd like to know is how they got the rights to use all that music. That was pretty cool though. Best finale ever!

I guess they paid people to use them (Harmony Gold, World Events, etc.).

I thought that was the best episode of the season.

Maybe, mabye not. If anything is Parody then Futurama is it. If the clips were not too long they could use them without paying anything, there is a good chance they may have paid just to keep things friendly though.

Actually, the crew said they licensed official music for the episode.

They decided to keep it friendly then. Lawsuits are a pain - even if the other side has no chance of winning.

I would love it if someone would finally lay the legal smack on HG though. Someday...

Look at the bright side; the parody was still a good burn on the story telling methodology they still cling to.

Hopefully those Emmys will help give Futurama an even longer life. Futurama, Thundercats and Clone Wars are my trifecta of cartoon goodness right now.

I demand to see Lrrr accepting that Emmy. :D

It's contract time again, Fox always screws with the simpsons cast during contract time.

They also did it with the Futurama cast before it came back. I don't know, with the way things are going for this show, it's kind of depressing that the Simpsons crew agreed to cuts.
