Guys, we are just a scant dozen days away from the special one-hour season premiere of Futurama. So, if you’re an opossum and you want your babies to see the premiere, today is pretty much your last chance to get pregnant.
With that in mind, here’s a new storyboard from “The Six Million Dollar Mon,” the seventh episode of the upcoming season.
Get the kids out of the room and avert your eyes if you’re a sensitive reader, because today’s Countdown installment is NSFW as hell.
It comes from the upcoming episode “The Six Million Dollar Mon,” and as you can see, it is a graphic, hardcore depiction of what appear to be a couple of amoebae getting it on. You can totally see their flagella and everything!
Futurama’s one-hour season premiere airs Wednesday, June 20 at 10/9c. That’s less than two weeks away!
I know what you’re thinking: Hermes looks kind of different in these images. And you’re right. I think he got a haircut.
These are your very first look at the upcoming season’s seventh episode, “The Six Million Dollar Mon,” which finds Hermes upgrading his body with robot parts.

Workaholics is back with a brand new season. In this clip from tonight's season premiere, Adam and Blake get psyched for their first acid trip. I've never taken LCD myself, but I did lace my oatmeal with a little nutmeg this morning, so I can definitely relate.

We’ve seen a lot of images and sketches from “Zapp Dingbat,” the fifth episode of the upcoming Futurama season, but today we get our first clip. In it, Zapp attempts to negotiate a treaty with some aliens, and he doesn’t screw anything up and everything goes fine.
No wait, not that. The opposite.

Today’s Countdown item is great for two reasons:
First, it gives us a behind-the-scenes glimpse of a scene from the upcoming episode “Zapp Dingbat.”
And second, it introduced me to the phrase, “leprechaun debris,” which is the perfect name for my new punk band.

I don’t really know what’s going on in these images from the upcoming Futurama episode “Zapp Dingbat,” but I do know that by the end of the day, someone will have them tattooed on their face.
