For all things Futurama

Rule 1: Don't be a jerkwad!

Currently reorganizing my library and now I am kinda confused.

Why is the data on TheTVDB so messed up?

Why so many orders? Why is streaming different?

[–] digger@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Certain networks, especially Fox, have the tendency to air episodes in a different order than production might have intended. They did this with Futurama, Firefly, American Dad!, etc. As such, you'll get different episode orders between broadcast and DVD/Blu-ray.

The streaming order is different for Futurama because the four direct-to-disc movies were broken into "episodes" for Season 6 for streaming... They might have also aired on Comedy Central in that format.

What a mess. Thank you for the explanation.
