Hi,
Wasn't sure where to post this, but where can i watch or download the Futurama eyePhone episode?

I am in the UK so one site i found, wouldn't let me watch due to country viewing restrictions.

Thanks.

I watched it. It's pretty good, however, I think their original episodes were a bit more racy and a bit less fake. Purely imho though.

Here's a three minute YouTube clip with some of the best parts:

The EyePhone

There are claims that Apple forced Comedy Central to remove a buyer = zombie reference and a "dumb bastards" comment from Mom:

Did Apple force edit of show?

The article includes the removed sections which were originally broadcast.

I thought that was absolutely pathetic, Apple PR acted like a spoilt brat who couldn't take any criticism and proved a point that they act more and more like every of grey building corporation.

I support Futurama!

The copy I got from iTunes has the "offending" line intact :rolleyes:

I thought the episode itself was clever but not funny, same as new South Park episodes.

Shame on Apple for the edit though. I'm not liking a lot of their recent actions.

I really like the new Futurama episodes - I'm surprised to see the negative comments! I was expecting it to be not-as-good, but I really haven't noticed any drop in quality compared to the earlier series.

Perhaps it depends on where your expectations are before you start watching; i didn't want to hope for too much, so i was blown away when it turned out good?

(Was a bit disappointed at the poking fun at Susan Boyle's appearance - and weird to see that dropped into an episode that spent the rest of the time poking fun at an institution who can afford it rather than a less-than-attractive singer.)
