Three years after Fox canceled the show, Matt Groening's "Futurama" will resume production for a 13-episode run on Comedy Central. The new episodes will be added to the network's library of 72 "Futurama" episodes previously licensed from 20th Century Fox Television. Voice talent Billy West, Katey Sagal and John DiMaggio will return for the new episodes, which will debut in 2008.

thats awsome news... still quite a long wait though but at least with the Futurama movie due out next year it will tide us over.

w00t

I've been following this news ever since Billy West hinted at it on his bog last year some time. I can't wait!!!! Futurama is my all time favourite show.

f*** yeah!

Someone at Fox needs to be fired for cancelling all the good shows they get. Same goes with the jerks that run the stations over here. Lets put Arrested Development on at like 11pm but keep Neighbours and Home And Away in prime spots.

Jerk faces.

I'm Bender baby, please insert Liquor!

well said

Yeah arrested development on Aus tv at 7pm would be great, it would run for about 10 minutes after the censors are done with it.

orly?

Bender: hey baby, wanna kill all humans?

wootwoot

awesome news

arrested development was kinda boring though ... that said, it's better than neighbours and home and away by 10 fold

damn teen emo angsty soaps, die already

dice sez:
I had no desire to enjoy arrested development or adapt to its humour and probably didn't watch enough of it in the first place

Oh ok

sweeet you can kiss my shiny metal ass

coldplay sucks

wrong thread much?

dam good news that

I f***ing hate coldplay

I too hate Coldplay, on the other hand I love Futurama so this is good news.

wrong thread much?

don't talk like a seppo

nah this is the right thread

I like coldplay.

Futurama isnt BAD per say, but over-rated none the less.

Why is six feet under on at 12.00am?

futurama ftw

Why is six feet under on at 12.00am?

Because its bad "per say"

Six Feet Under is great, I actually ended up buying it on DVD, except for the 5th season which I downloaded becasue it wasn't available on DVD yet...I think it comes out in the next month or 3.

Seconded, 6FU is a great show. But yes, yet another classic buried by channel 9.

Depends on how much you pick up / understand. I think the show is brilliant, especially after taking first year physics (relativity/quantum-mech) and watching a lot of physics documentaries.

This had me in hysterics:

Horse race anouncer: It's a quantum finish! And the winner is-(Man holds up a board with the winning horse on it)
Horse race announcer: Harry Trotter!
Professor Farnsworth: No fair! You changed the outcome by measuring it!

Mars University is another awesome episode:

Gunther: All I want out of life is to be a monkey of moderate intelligence who wears a suit. That's why I've decided to transfer to business school.

Fry: Hey Professor, what are you teaching this semester?
Professor Farnsworth: The same thing I teach every semester: The Mathematics of Quantum Neutrino Fields. I made up the title so that no student would dare take it.
Fry: ...mathematics of wonton burrito meals. I'll be there!
Professor Farnsworth: Please, Fry, I don't know how to teach! I'm a professor!
