Futurama Back In Production
Have you grown tired of bad TV news? And by bad TV news, I mean bad news about television shows. Bad "TV news" is redundant.
Well, get ready for some good news. No wait, get ready for some great news. No, great doesn't really describe it. Here is some grantasticularly wondergasmiclicious news! (And my 12th grade English teacher said I'd never amount to anything as a writer.) Comedy Central has ordered all brand new episodes of Futurama, and the show has officially gone back into production. An insider told Collider.com that the network has given the series an order for 13 additional episodes to air now that the network has run through all of the series' original episodes and the four full-length DVD movies. This news has sparked rumors that production has officially started again on the series and casting is underway. It's not just good news for Futurama fans, even though the fans are slipping into grinning comas and twitching with joy over the news. And who can blame them? It's one of the few comedy series that just seems to get better and better the longer its run gets. It's the bizarro According to Jim. It's also good news to every show that has been cancelled before its time. Matt Groening, David X. Cohen and company have proved that no show can truly die just because a single-minded network doesn't have the patience to let it develop and expand. Their dedication to the show and its fans is truly astounding, and if new episodes do make it to Comedy Central's doorstep, disappointed fanboys across the universe will have one less thing in life to be disappointed about. http://www.tvsquad.com/2009/06/08/be...in-our-future/ ![]() |

AWESOMEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
I'm worried about one thing though. "Casting is underway" ? They're not using the same cast? I'm unfamiliar with showbiz lingo. Please calm my concerns. crossrine |

Then you are pretty much my least favorite person in the entire world right now. Futurama is one of the best animated shows ever created.

I actually kind of feel bad for you, knowing how much your sense of humor must suck if you can't find Futurama to be an enjoyable experience. |

I don't do any of those things at all. What kinds of shows do you enjoy?

I enjoy King of the Hill, but I don't find it funnier than Futurama at all. I don't get what you hate about it. Is it because it's nerdy? If so, that's understandable, but just say that.

The only people who I've noticed who find Futurama funny are the better fucking losers on the planet.
btw, I'm going through horrible nicotine withdrawls right now, so i'll probably apologize later for this. until then FUTURAMA IS THE BIGGEST OVER_RATED PIECE OF SHIT SHOW ON TV! |

That is the stupidest generalization I have ever heard. Shows like Futurama, Simpsons, King of the Hill, Family Guy.. etc.. they all target the SAME demographic. The fact that you're insulting people who watch Futurama is laughable, because those same people probably watch King of the Hill too. What does that say about you if you and a bunch of douchebags find the same thing to be funny?

Futurama is nerd comedy. It's a niche audience. King of the Hill, Simpsons and Family Guy, totally different.

What? Not at all. How is it a nerd comedy? Because it's sci-fi instead of present day? Since when do you have to be a nerd to enjoy sci-fi?
Edit: No.. just no, I mean come on you are reaching here. The style of comedy used in Futurama is no different than the other shows. |

AND.. that still doesn't change the fact that the people who watch Futurama also watch those other shows.. so making a generalization about the type of people who watch it is still stupid.

I enjoyed 3 of the films, only really hated The Beast With A Billion Backs but even that had it's moments.
Oh, and the ending to Into The Wild Green Yonder, they just felt they had to do that in case it was the last episode and it kinda felt forced. |

and i know plenty of people who watch all of these shows and still don't fit the stereotype you created from thin air
this kind of logic works on both sides |

Family Guy has recurring bits about musicals and barbershop quartets. You don't consider that nerdy?
