Futurama...RETURNS

#1 Post by Ammer »

Rotten Tomatoes wrote:• Thanks to strong DVD sales, and a resurgence in popularity on cable, Comedy Central has resurrected "Futurama" for a minimum of 13 new episodes to begin airing in 2008.


Not bad eh? Hopefully those episodes will receive high ratings and then suddenly, Futurama will be back on air! I hope so, I love that show.

Awww yay, I love Futurama. Hopefully the new shows will be as good as the old ones. Are the same people going to be working on it? I hope so. I'd hate to have to hear a character with a different voice or settle for a different sense of humor.
2008, huh.
By the time 2008 rolls around, I'll have already forgotten about this. :P

Posted on the thread, but yeah, that's great! HOWEVER, according to gotfuturama.com, the "new episodes" are really just the 4 dvd movies premiering on tv. (Each movie is going to be split into 4 episodes, 4x4=16 episodes). :| If it does well, there's always the possibility of them picking up more episodes.

No! The magic will be gone. Waiting 2 years is too much. And why Comedy Central? I loved Adult Swim!!!

If that's sarcastic, than ignore what I'm going to say.

"Futurama" was cancelled remember? Even though it still airs on television, it doesn't mean it's still going on.

They've already got a hold of the script for the first 4 episodes/movie on aintitcool news.

If you're into spoilers or you have no will power such as myself, free fell to check it out yourself.
