Update on how the new Futurama season is doing in popularity on Hulu.

(this was removed by the other board because they're nuts so I thought I'd share here since you know... Scruffy)

First... this is what I noticed 2 years ago for Hulu's 2nd season:

  • S2: Premiered on Mondays, ranked near/at the top of the mixed top 15, then dropped slowly, fell off Saturday or Sunday, reappeared Monday. That was the pattern.
  • S3 (binge drop): Totally different story. Premiered at the top again, but was gone after 5 days and never reappeared.
  • As a comparison: King of the Hill's new 2nd Hulu season last month did the same as Futurama binge last year... came and went after about 5 days.

NOW for this season.

Week 1, Ep1/2 in the mixed Top 15:

  • Monday #13,
  • Tuesday jumped #6,
  • Wednesday #9,
  • then fell off the chart.

Week 2, Ep 3 (Scruffy appears): (Remember the rankings come out in the AM so it's based on previous days viewing mostly)

  • Not in the mixed top 15 Monday
  • Tuesday #8
  • Wednesday #10
  • off the chart Thursday.

Series Top 15:

  • Monday #13
  • Tuesday #6
  • Wednesday #8
  • Thursday #10
  • Friday #13
  • Saturday #13
  • Sunday #12

While not as top level as the first 2 seasons... I think it's not bad. It's charting. Also worth factoring in that Hulu has a lot more popular original programming now filling the top 15 (plus more since being in line with Disney/ABC) compared to 2 years ago... Shards and Furious is hitting it right now.

Iheart radio dance top 20 tripled songs tonight... anyone know why?

Glitch? On purpose?

So I listen all the time when cycling and today was normal but tonight I turn it on and it's at the 4th song.. it repeats number 4 three times like actually says " four four four" then it played the 4th song also 3 times but SPLICED them together so it wasn't back to back but seemed intentionally spliced together to create on long set. Like a 9 minute version.

then even the interstitial that says "this is i heart radio" played 3 different versions back to back.

then it did the same for 3-2- and 1.

then when it got to 20 went back to normal.

Anyone know what gives?

Fun Nibbler pilot theory appearance exchange with the writers from a Collider event... seems to answer the question but gets hilariously confusing

COHEN: There was stuff, like we had hidden Nibbler’s shadow in the pilot. I mean, I don't know if this, again, answers your question, but later on that became public knowledge, years later, when we had some backstory about time travel, and then a lot of the fans thought we had gone back and inserted that, and it was only in reruns, but it was always there.

AVANZINO: I will say, you did insert it. I think we had maybe even gotten color back, but we hadn't aired it yet, and it was inserted. It was not originally there, but it was originally there by the time it aired.

COHEN: Yeah, because in between, that's when Nibbler went back in time and changed the picture you were drawing.

GROENING: Wait, wait, wait, for clarity, because you've just confused things, before the pilot aired, it was put in.

AVENZINO: I said that.

GROENING: It was always there.

COHEN: I think we're just fanning the flames of this conspiracy.

Has anyone seen Haunted Heist? I'm just curious if it's an actual comedy.

I don't care if it's good or bad honestly. It looks pretty weak but I enjoy silly horror comedies.

I'm asking because a friend of mine gets upset at horror gore and blood... and we usually go together so wondering where this one falls. Comedy like a haunted mansion or more serious horror with comedy?

I saw the people behind it have made real horror films so I'm not sure.

And trailers can be deceptive.

Have you all noticed the futurama sub is now all gifs and memes?... so boring.

hoping this takes off because the other has become kind of unbearable.

i don't think scruffy would stand for it

try to invite more conversation vs those... but a scruffy meme is always fun.

Friday the 13th Part 3 1982 poster from Italy

Love this. This is my Friday the 13th Part 3D poster. It's huge. Was a subway poster in Italy back in 1982. Was way more expensive to frame it vs the poster itself lol.

It's one of my favorite F13 movies. But I say that about all of them.

What to see this weekend?... I've seen almost everything.

Besides Supergirl... I was looking for some newbies coming out. Found something called Maddie's Secret. A comedy which I love to catch in theaters. But when you look it up on the app I can't find it. I just happened to see it listed in one of the local theaters.

Any suggestions for any of the new ones? There's one with Russell Crowe but I couldnt find it either.

Already saw Furious and Disclosure and Scary Movie and Stop That Train, Leviticus, Tuner, Star Wars, Obsession, Backrooms, Master of the Universe... crazy thing I liked them all with varying degrees of like.
