Futurama fans?

[GAD]

I love Black Mirror and totally forgot there was a new season!

To be fair to that show, that season actually was supposed to be released during the pandemic but they held it back because the world was already a Black Mirror episode.

Oh, well, I guess the Futurama honeymoon is over for me, anyway. I found episode 9 ("The Prince and the Product") to be utterly unwatchable and not the slightest bit funny. Maybe there's some cultural joke I'm missing with the wind-up toy business, but whatever... I'm done. I was going to make a rant of the day about it, but what's the point?

Oh, and GAD, Black Mirror season 6 is a real mixed bag. Let me know what you think when you get to it.

Well, that's good, I guess. I hope it improves going forward.

I’m still not caught up yet.

I still have yet to watch it, and I'm excited that I have a series in my back pocket to binge.

I somehow missed that entire thread and now I thought we are talking guitars....

What year is that guitar?

The original Futurama was in 1939 and was supposed to show the future of 1959. It would be kind of cool if that was a '59 guitar.

That De Luxe model looks very much like a Hagstrom

 

[Prince of Darkness]

That De Luxe model looks very much like a Hagstrom

Certainly got a Hagstrom Tremar vibrato

That De Luxe model looks very much like a Hagstrom

She was manufactured by Hagstöm as Hagström III and also sold as Futurama 3 De Luxe by Selmer in the UK.

Had to take a picture in honor of Thanksgiving... One of the funniest scenes from perhaps the funniest episode:

perhaps the funniest episode

Which episode is that?

 

[chazmo]

My favorite, all time, even though I love many of them.... Roswell that ends well... Absolutely the best time travel episode sci-fi/comedy ever written. And I've seen more than enough good/bad time travel to last a lifetime. This is the best.
