those are called reruns.
As for lisa being super smart and being a veggie, I think you must be confused. Lisa starts out a smart and talented saxophonist, later in the series she just becomes preachy and loses most of her character.
Also, vegetarians are never smart.
How is this flamebait? What is the sig supposed to mean? "My honor student sterilized your kid. Unless I'm missing a contemporary comedy related reference that isn't Nazi or eugenics related then the obviously sarcastic comment stands. Mange, merde, et morte...
I reserve the right to think for myself. Others' opinions are optional. Puppy on lap = typos...not illiteracy.
"I'm so angry I can't even remember to close my italics tag."
Nice try, but the whole post was in italics, and yes the tag was closed.
"20 seconds? You don't give me much credit for being able to type at a reasonable speed."
Slashdot requires you to wait 20 seconds to post.
"Seriously, though, the "20 seconds" wasted on making a wise-assed remark about how I don't find the show to be very funny (and the additional seconds spent replying to you) pale in comparison to the 3 or 4 hours of TV viewing I spent trying very hard to give that show a fair chance, out of respect for the writers and voice talents involved."
So why not spend 20 seconds writing the letters instead of making snide comments intended to annoy the people who saw what you didn't see in it?
"It mostly suffered from the same disease as "The Critic" (the failed cartoon featuring the usually-funny Jon Lovitz), in that the writers seemed to think that (not so) obscure pop-culture references are automatically funny, even if they are not used to say anything funny or witty. The formula gets old very quickly."
I think you're confusing Futurama with Family Guy.
"So I ask again, not rhetorically, will it be funny this time around?"
It was funny the first time around. Don't feel bad, though, I didn't get Austin Powers the first time around.
"Derp de derp."
"So why not spend 20 seconds writing the letters instead of making snide comments intended to annoy the people who saw what you didn't see in it?"
That was supposed to read "writing letters to the writers". Sorry.
