uncut premiere - 19.04.03, 03:00

THE ONE WHERE After running out of food on the Planet of the Moochers, Fry, Leela and Bender find a tasty food source on a planet 1 million miles from nowhere. They take this addictive food back to Earth, and Fishy Joe�s (a fast-food chain with almost universal coverage) start selling it as �Popplers�. But then it turns out that Popplers can talk, and are in fact children of the Omicronians! Who, of course invade Earth.

DEFINITE CUTS (C4)
-----------------
PX are all tasting the new food:
HERMES     Oh mon, I�m inhaling these things! You guys scored some primo stuff here!
So now, according to C4�s Futurama censors, the word �inhaling� is now a bad word, whichever context it�s in!
-----------------
In the middle of the news programme when the aliens arrive on Earth:
(the ground starts shaking)
LINDA (NEWSREADER)     We seem to be experiencing technical difficulties� (a girder falls from the roof)
and crap like I�ve never seen! (screen goes fuzzy)
-----------------
Smelly Hippy has just informed the Omicronians that Leela has been replaced by an orang-utan:
BRANNIGAN (has grabbed hippy)     You�d sacrifice a beautiful woman to save a moderately attractive ape?
You must have been smoking some bad granola.
