This show ROCKS! I was really ticked when Fox axed the show years ago. Here's the article!
Source
Holy Bender Bending Rodríguez!
Six years after getting axed by Fox, Futurama is being resurrected on Comedy Central.
A spokesperson for 20th Century Fox Television confirms that the cable net has ordered 26 new episodes of Matt Groening and David X. Cohen's late, great animated series to air beginning in 2010. The studio cites Futurama's "blockbuster" performance on DVD and in reruns on Comedy Central as the reason for its rebirth.
Hmmm... sound familiar?
"When we brought back Family Guy several years ago, everyone said that it was a once in a lifetime thing -- that canceled series stay canceled and cannot be revived," 20th Century Fox TV Chairmen Gary Newman and Dana Walden said in a joint statement. "But Futurama was another series that fans simply demanded we bring back, and we couldn’t have been happier when Matt and David agreed that there were many more stories yet to tell."
Adds Groening: "We’re thrilled Futurama is coming back. We now have only 25,766 episodes to make before we catch up with Bender and Fry in the year 3000."
I have a hunch Groening isn't the only one doing a happy dance.

Family Guy is really good too. I used to tape one and watch the other when they were both on at the same time. They are two very different shows with two very different directions for their humor.

Heh, I didn't even know they had DVD movies of Futurama until now! 
I don't know; many people point out that having more episodes isn't always a good thing; it's possible that a series will lose some of its quality during the run. We also don't know how much of the original cast or crew will return to the show. It's too early to say whether this will be the Futurama that we remember from 2003 or something else entirely! |
