Futurama back?

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

That's bad news for fans of The Simpsons as it started to really loss it's luster when Futurama was first coming out.

Futurama is a funny show, but was never on my "must see" list.

We'll see how this works.

The Simpson has been on life support for years now. It needs to end.

Production has begun, look for a 2008 release.

I think this show never got enough love.

Maybe it can take American Dad's place, and what little funny is in that show could go back to Family Guy.

Yea, Adult Swim was talking about this maybe a year ago. Least it was followed thru on. I am cautiously hopeful.

I'm really looking forward to this. The more I watch the repeats, the more I like the show.

That was a repeat, I'd just forgotten that line, and I laughed and laughed.

But yeah, I've already seen a snip of "Bender's Big Score," the 2 hour movie about to be released.

Looks like Adult Swim is losing Futurama. It'll be replaced by The Family Guy.

That's terrible news.
I've been watching the farewell marathon.

Looks like Adult Swim lost it because Comedy Central picked it up.

Yep. I mourn because Adult Swim Futurama was on at the perfect time to fall asleep while listening to it. I may never watch it on CC at 9pm.

I did that too!

In some small way, it was like we were sleeping together, Gordon.
