Watch Futurama – The Six Million Dollar Mon Online S07E07
The Six Million Dollar Mon
This week’s episode, “The Six Million Dollar Mon” proves that Futurama can still be funny when the main cast takes center stage. Case in point: ‘The Six Million Dollar Mon’, whose plot was almost certainly built out of an excuse to use that face-palm of a pun, centred around Hermes’ desire to increase his bureaucratic efficiency by becoming a robot. Nothing particularly dark there, until jokes from the second act onwards start focusing on backstreet surgery, skin peeling, epidermicide (my new favourite crime) and the reconstruction of a human being from individual parts stored in a bloody paper bag. The show also appears to have killed off its second robotic supporting character in the space of under half a season (following the demise of Calculon in ‘The Thief Of Baghead’) in the shape of the stab-happy Roberto.
First, after a routine performance review, Hermes realizes he’s the least valuable employee at Planet Express, and does the only logical thing: he fires himself, only to be replaced by a more efficient ‘bot. Then, while he and LaBarbara are taking a walk in the park, they’re attacking by the psychotic, skin-obsessed Roberto, another machine. Roberto is dispatched by the police (the robot cop makes the arrest, naturally), and Hermes decides that the only way he can be happy is with a little upgrade. It’s an effective progression, one that explains why the character is having a change of heart now, while still being built on top of aspects of his personality that have long been established.
Hermes showed us why robotic implants are just trouble. Sure, it starts with the desire to launch a harpoon out of one’s chest, but it always just goes quickly downhill. I mean, it always leads to becoming a giant dehumanizing death machine, without question. Great science-fiction like this does use the future to comment on the present, after all! Hermes’s enjoyment and tolerance of extremely spicy food is something I can relate to, though I would hope that my skin wouldn’t cause robots to melt, and to burn holes through people’s bodies. Also, I hope that no one ever tries to eat my skin.
Admittedly, the modern culture parodies haven’t gone away and still feel out of place in a world a thousand years in the future, but episodes like ‘Decision 3012′ have at least mixed up an otherwise polemic-driven premise with a science fiction twist (the election candidate from the future disappears upon the completion of his task to change the past, thus undoing all his work) and a higher-than-before batting average for jokes, suggesting the newer writers have started becoming comfortable with the kind of humour that works in Futurama’s setting.

Watch Criminal Minds – There’s No Place Like Home Online [S07E07] Megavideo
There’s No Place Like Home
On Wednesday night’s Criminal Minds (“There’s No Place Like Home”), the BAU was called to Kansas where the dismembered bodies of two troubled boys were found after tornados touched down.
JJ struggled with the decision of staying home with her son, Henry, who happened to be ill, or joining her team in Kansas. Ultimately she went to work, a decision she came to regret when her son had seizures and she could not get a flight home due to the weather. She has officially become the second member of this team who has come to sacrifice her home and family life for her job.
Rossi’s shows up for the case and thanks Hotch for the team’s donation for ALS. Garcia gives them a quick rundown of the case: two victims, with COD blunt force trauma to the head. Both have limbs missing, but it’s uncertain yet if that’s the unsub or the storm. They’re in rough weather, and the unsub’s excited to hear an alert issued.
Reid’s uncanny knowledge of storm facts was an invaluable tool, as were Garcia’s research skills, thanks to her “binary machines that don’t say gross things.” After a lull last week, she was on fire with the one-liners this time. Her “jazz hands at the ready” was classic Garcia, as was the disclaimer that folks shouldn’t let her PG initials be misleading. They really do write her dialogue well. At least Morgan has started warning Garcia when she’s on speaker, even though that’s half the fun.
My favourite moment of the episode was when the BAU was on the plane going to Kansas and they hit a patch of turbulence, at which point Reid noticed that Rossi was uncomfortable. Being his wonderful self, Reid attempted to comfort Rossi by telling him that turbulence rarely ever causes plane crashes, but then proposed an alternate and much more likely way the plane could go down.
