    Default Futurama coming back, nobody excited?

    I'm totally stumped as to why this has not been posted, but the animated series Futurama is making a comeback in the form of four movie length DVDs, which will begin recording in july or august. Billy West, who voices about half the characters on the show, has confirmed this himself on his own website.

    is a done deal! Here's the word from DX---

    August.Full feature length FUTURAMA movies.
    Everybody is excited to get back together--as I am!

    So, buy them all and maybe we will get a new season of Futurama.

    If they bring back Firefly, I will have no more beef with fox .

    Amen to that . Good to see that someone at Fox might actually have some sense... I don't live in America so I haven't watched Fox TV, but we get plenty of their shows in Britain and I can't understand why they let shows like Futurama and Firefly end when there was so much promise left in them...

    I think Firefly was too expensive.

    But futurama?
    I have no idea why they halted that project.
    But Good news about those DVD's.
    I wonder why they choose DVD's in stead of TV broadcast.

    Then reduce the budget. It could quite possibly have been done with less effects, the show's genius is in its characters and dialogue.

    A few years ago, Fox pulled a lot of good shows off the air. When Andy Richter Controls the Universe, Greg the Bunny, Firefly, Titus, Undeclared, Family Guy, and Futurama were pulled to make room for crappy reality shows.

    Fox finally brought back Family Guy, and now they're realizing their mistake in pulling Futurama. They've still got a long way to go before they gain even a modicum of respect from me.

    Futurama was incredible, one of the best cartoon series of all time. I can't wait.

    Well I rather have the series back instead of movies but good enough I guess.

    Futurama is liquid, fermented, pasteurised and all-improved genius. I have all the episodes on DVD and watch one a night, every night. It's only a pity about this 'movie-length' approach thing, because the show really doesn't strike me as being suitable for such a format. Just coming to their dumb-assed senses and producing more on TV, as it should never have come off, is what should be done. Damn it.

    And Family Guy is merely crude and smells bad in comparison.

    futurama kickasses!
    You have a certain mentality, a "you vs them" and i know it is hard to see, but it is only your imagination which makes up enemies everywhere. I haven't professed anything but being neutral so why Do you feel the need to defend yourself from me?. Truly What are you defending? when there is nobody attacking?

    Futurama rocks. One memorable two-liner...

    Fry: Yeah? well I was making out with that radiator woman from the radiator planet!
    Leila: Fry, that's a radiator...

    Futurama owns you, your mom, your sister, your mom's sister, your dog and your mom's and your sister's dogs. If you don't have a dog, get one so Futurama can own it.

    Meh, if it was back on tv I would be a lot more excited. The movies are a good sign though. If they sell well, FOX might bring them back

    Yeah, I know, I have used it in the past, and will use it again.
