Mega Marathon: Y2K

I'm disappointed there were no killer waffle irons.

Nostalgic for a time about 10 years ago?  Watch these retro episodes!

  • Family Guy, "Da Boom."
After the Y2K bug results in the apocalypse, Peter and his friends rebuild their town.

  • Futurama, "Space Pilot 3000"
Delivery boy Philip J. Fry is cryogenically frozen on the New Years Eve 2000 and is thawed out 1000 later.

  • King of the Hill, "Hillennium."
Fears of the Y2K bug cause Hank to drastically alter his Christmas gift-giving plans.

  • The Simpsons, "Treehouse of Horror X"
Includes the segment, "Life's A Glitch And Then You Die," in which life is not the same after electronics are destroyed by the Y2K bug.

  • South Park, "Are You There, G-d?  It's Me, Jesus"
Jesus is under pressure to plan a big event for New Years Eve 2000.
