No new episode on May 5th?

TVListings reports a repeat of Future Shellshock.

Seems like a stupid thing to do with only 6 episodes left in the season.

It would be smart for them to air the last 6 eps during May sweeps rather than hold them off for the summer or Fall.

Hmmmm, that IS weird (NOT to say that I don't need to record it off on DVD, but still....). Me thinks I need to check around a few places (MSNTV, DishNetwork.com, DirectTV.com; etc.) to see what the haps is.

Did anyone else get a sick feeling in their stomach the first time they saw Future Shellshock?

wvah.com has "Future Shellshock", too. On an off-topic note, though, apparantly Sonic X is returning on May 5th.

They could have shown the newer episodes of FF rather than Future Shellshock. Or reshown some of the more recent episodes but why Future Shellshock?

seriously, what a way to make everyone turn the channel. They really should show a later eppy ar least. I think we have all seen that one quite a few times.
I would like to know the thought behind this and why someone thought it would make sense with so little of the season left

Dramatic effect, I would imagine. You know... to build anticipation for what will probably not satisfy our hopes.

Ignoring it...Haha true story
On demand has been the same way...I have this vain hope that I will check the kids section and find something new or at least something besides just FF. It would be nice just to know they are giving 2K3 a leg up but that's an old complaint I know

I'll be giving Spider-Man a miss, thank you (my niece Ashley won't, if she knows it's in the theatre, being the Spidey-nut that SHE is!), as I hate any and all things Marvel, but I, too will be going to Free Comic Day at MY comic shop...AFTER I watch BOTH eps of TMNT (provided they're STILL running two eps).

And they're bringing back Sonic X? Cool. I just hope they use it to replace one of the Viva Pinata or Yu-Gi-Oh eps, OR to keep that idiotc Bratz from coming back. HATE that show!!!

yeah I can say Bratz should be the one to go if any of them, I actually am starting to find Viva Pinata fun to watch probably because I there is nothing else on to flip to that time of day and I am a hopeless cartoon junkie.
I would watch Sonic X again

Speaking of Spiderman 3, do you guys think that 4kids put a repeat on purposely that weekend because they know people are going to go to the theaters?

It does seem odd to just air the first FF episode randomly for one week...especially since they only have 6 eps left in the season and there's no point for holding these last 6 eps over for the Fall.

I assume and hope the rerun is just for that one Saturday.

I suppose they may be thinking that but turtles air in the morning and most theatres don't open until at least noon anyway.

Anyway I'm long past trying to understand the guys in charge. They skip an entire season. Then they send our boys into the future 100 years and completely overhaul all they have accomplished... I'll just stop there.

It's 4Kids; who KNOWS what the nitwits are thinking?

Although PERSONALLY, I'D rather watch ANY ep of FF; new OR rerun; than go see Spider-Man. I HATE that thing!!!

Okay... considering they don't freaking care now, sure... air Future Shellshock for the trillionth time. I'll just watch that Legion of Superman or whatever that is instead. Give them even better ratings.

But I will say I'm glad Sonic X is back on, even though they are obviously reruns. And I gotta say, Viva Pinata doesn't suck that much. Got rid of Bratz. That's a plus in my book.

This morning, I began to wonder if it was the most repeated episode of the newer series (taking both 2K3 and FF into account).
