Really the only thing to talk about is the new Amazing Adventure. I liked how it had a conflict that involved the solar panels having to be fixed.

I knew at some point they would start doing repeats of the HBO-era stories.

Its more practical for them to do reruns from seasons 46 or 47. Seasons 39 to 45 the set was different and the older cast members were still there. Don't get me wrong I love the episodes from those years. But I'd rather just see the actual episode instead of a remade shortened hacked to pieces version made into a "new" episode.

I agree completely. It is a little weird to see characters like Maria, Luis, Gordon, Gina, Leela and Mando, etc. when they're sort of long gone. Don't get me wrong. It's great to see all the classic characters again, but using them in repeats just don't work. Besides, the format of the set was too different. The character voices have changed over time. Yet they add new material to the repeat episodes for the opening and closing scenes with the new set and it probably confuses the heck out of kids. Hopefully, from this point forward they'll use the eps from just a season or two when they play repeats. That would probably make more sense.
