So I(robot) is scheduled to be shown in December, but it is also marked as being a new episode. Are they different episodes? THe same episode, but because it was a pilot originally it doesn't count as having been shown yet? Is this some sort of sequel episode? Does anyone have answers?

I'm more curious about "Return to Oblivion".

Return to Oblivion is a BSG reference...I think


or it was some other science fiction series that has a episode title similar to that....

It was som epic space show that had an episode entitled Return to Oblivion...Battle Star Galactica is a name that sticks out in my mind, but ti could be Earth: Final Conflict....

Or any of the Star Treks? Or possibly Andromeda? Or perhaps Stargate: SG-1? I'm sure there are plenty of Sci-Fi shows that have odd and funny episode names that the writers thought were cool and sophisticated. For all we know, it could be a farce of a little known Sartre or Nietsche theatrical production. However, knowing the WS crew and what they've done with Aqua Teen Hunger Force and character reprisals, I think it would be far more likely that it's a reference to another "behind the scenes" look at Sealab like the episode Swimming in Oblivion, or maybe that's just my uninformed guess...

According to a Google search for both Episode and "Return to Oblivion", Sealab is the only show with a result in the 2 pages of results, though I did find This funky-ass, crappy geocities website about Hesh (http://www.geocities.com/audrahammer/hesh.html) that says MC Chris is doing two voices for the episode, this semi-anime related blog (http://demi.pure-sugar.net/archives/00000046.htm) making refernce to an odd phillipino(sp?) blog called Return to Oblivion, two references to the same analysis of Slayers (but not an episode title), and a reference to a 1995 French and English film or documentary about Rwanda (http://www.tve.org/mp6/searchresults.cfm?xkwd=children) which I doubt counts as an episode title. So while none of these preclude the possibility of it being a Sci-Fi TV show episode title, I would've assumed there would've been mention somewhere on this web of nerds with pages in every language from Klingon to Martian...

But then again, maybe that's just me...

So the cast opf Sealab goes demon hunting and eventualy blows up Sealab(again)

if even I am remotley correct(which is unlikely) it should be an enjoyable episode none the less...

Did I ever tell you that I love you?

Anyway, it's most likely a sequel to the SEALAB 2021 episode "Swimming in Oblivion".

A card from Tuesday:

New Sealab 2021
this Sunday @ 11:30 PM

"Return to Obilivion" is
7030's thinly veiled protest

against creative meddling
from Williams Street idiots.

Behind the scenes
at its finest.

[see for yourself]


My guess is it will be another one-joke episode that Sealab has specialized in since season 2. They'll probably do something stupid like re-dubbing "Swimming in Oblivion."

Yeah, I'm sure that's TOTALLY what they'll do. ... no wait, I'm wrong, I'm pretty sure that's not what it is. Right-o.

Prehaps it will all be in another language?
