New Episodes Of Futurama (?)

Futurama May Live Again on Fox

January 4, 2006

Variety reports that talks have begun at 20th Century Fox TV to revive the animated series Futurama, which takes place in the next millennium.

The studio is in early discussions to put Futurama back in production and create a limited number of episodes of the Emmy Award-winning series -- although it's too soon to tell where those episodes might end up, adds the trade.

The final original episode of Futurama aired on Fox in August 2003. But since then, the series has found new life -- and fans -- via DVD releases and repeatedly high-rated airings on the Cartoon Network.

Futurama remains popular enough that Comedy Central even stole away off-net rights to the show's repeats late last year; it will switch to the comedy channel in 2008.

A similar resurgence in interest for Family Guy persuaded 20th Century Fox TV to revive that show, which has produced two seasons of new episodes and a DVD since coming back from the dead. Family Guy now resides as Fox's Sunday 9 p.m. tentpole.

The Simpsons creator Matt Groening and "Simpsons" vet David X. Cohen were behind Futurama, which premiered on Fox in March 1999.

I'm wary. By the time it went off the air, it had begun to suck quite a bit. The Fry/Leila story line got super romantic and lame, and all the characters had become pathetic characatures of themselves. If they can regain the brilliance of the early shows, then I'm super excited. But I'm not holding my breath.

Yep, let sleeping dogs ... and all that.

All the Futuramas in the world won't make up for the death of Arrested Development. Bastards.

They can pretend that much of season 4 never happened.

They'd have to.

True, but I will bring back to life my hypnotoad avatar anyway:D

Long live the hypno-toad!

All glory to the hypno-toad!

It looks like we can expect more than new episodes.

A movie is in the works for 2007.

Oh, did I say A movie ? I meant to say FOUR movies.
