It seems that I’m saying this time and time again – but Futurama is back. Comedy Central has picked up the show for 26 new half-hour episodes.

Prepare to be transported to the year 3000 for the return of Fry, Bender, Leela and the usual cast of twelve-dimensional space monsters. Back by popular demand, Matt Groening and David X. Cohen’s brilliantly subversive animated sci-fi comedy Futurama debuts its sixth season of 12 all-new half-hour episodes on Thursday, June 24 at 10:00 p.m. on Comedy Central, kicking off with a special hour-long block of two back-to-back new episodes. The series also reaches a milestone on Thursday, September 2, when it celebrates its 100th episode.

Life Is Hard is a very brief platform game offering an exploration of just how difficult life can be. Just use your left, right arrows to move around and up to jump. Take a moment to enjoy this entertaining, little game and let me know what you think of it.

Retro Sabotage – Retrogaming: classic games we know and love with a twist. Their latest hilariously sabotaged game is called Jumping and it’s quite silly.

Happy Festivus everyone! It’s another way to celebrate the season without participating in all the pressures and commercialism of other certain holidays, which will remain nameless. It’s time to join with your family and friends around the Festivus pole. I sure hope you’re ready for the airing of grievances, cause I’ve got some doozies.

Small Wonder aired for five seasons in syndication and often reran out of order, to the chagrin of fans. The show has since withstood the test of time to emerge as a classic laser beacon of 80s nostalgia and pop culture. Marking 24 years after the initial premiere on network television, Small Wonder: The Complete First Season, finally debuts on DVD for the first time on February 16, 2010 from Shout! Factory.

She’s fantastic, made of plastic, microchips here and there . . . she’s a Small Wonder!

With my own baby due really soon, the topic of X-Babies (Mojo-manufactured child clones of the X-Men) came to my attention with the latest comic issue #3. I like the artwork and sure they’re cute bundles of mutant joy, but they’re more like toddlers. I guess X-Toddlers doesn’t have the same ring to it as X-Babies does. They’re byproducts of the “going baby” phase everyone did in the 1980s, thanks in part to Jim Henson’s Muppet Babies. I can just imagine Prof. X as Nanny, wearing those striped socks, never seeing his face and doing mind probes on the gang.

He who struggles and endures will be a ninja – and he’s out of retirement!
