Yeah, a significant percentage of humor in the average Futurama episode is pretty much what you'd write in the fiver. I dunno how you'd work around that and still be funny.

Bones's only failing that I see is that it's not sci-fi/fantasy.

3) Wouldn't mind seeing some Quantum Leap.
The advantage there, from what I understand, would be that each episode would have an entirely new setting, which relieves the problem of having to make the same joke over and over again.

Heh, never thought about it like that before.

Futurama, Eureka, Chuck
Chuck could work, although again I don't know that it's very sci-fi.
