New futurama episodes on comedy central!
 
taken from http://www.gotfuturama.com/ just scroll down on the main page.

After word from two voice actors had spread during the last two days, the news agency Reuters is now reporting that "Comedy Central has resurrected the former Fox animated series from "The Simpsons" creator Matt Groening and David X. Cohen. At least 13 new episodes will be produced."

They go on to quote David Bernath, senior vice president for programming at the network.
"We are thrilled that Matt Groening and 20th Century Fox Television have decided to produce new episodes of 'Futurama' and that Comedy Central will be the first to air them."
"There is a deep and passionate fan base for this intelligent and very funny show that matches perfectly with our audience, and it is great that we can offer them not just the existing library but something they've never seen as well."

A press release from Comedy Central dated June 22nd supposedly verifies this information but is not available to the public on their media website yet.

Old. It isn't supposed to start until 2008. But either way, MORE FUTURAMA!!!!

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 07.03.2006 11:35 AM

really? I just heard about it last night on adultswim. Oh well, Im still excited. I plan on picking up the 3rd and 4th seasons this summer.

Alex's Trip 07.03.2006 11:42 AM

Poser, I already have them all ;)

They are really great.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 07.03.2006 11:46 AM

haha, I dont have cable in my room so I watch the first two seasons when I go to bed, a disc a night. With only seven discs I could write out every episode by memory.

I did that last year. I don't know about all 4 seasons by memory, but you can tell me just about any quote and I can tell you what episode, why it is said, etc.

"A man can dream.. a man can dream" which episode?

Alex's Trip 07.03.2006 12:02 PM

Anthology of Interest I. Last lines of the show because the professor wanted to know what it would be like if he had invented the finglonger, so he asks the what if machine and it shows him showing the rest of the cast the what if machine. Did that last part make sense?

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 07.03.2006 12:03 PM

What if Bender was really giant?"

Alex's Trip 07.03.2006 12:05 PM

Haha, that line is great. I wish they did more Anthology of Interests. Which did you like better I or II?

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 07.03.2006 12:09 PM

The only one I can think of right now is the first one.

Alex's Trip 07.03.2006 12:16 PM

First one:

What if bender was really giant?
What if Fry never got frozen?
What if Leela was more impulsive?

Second one:

What if Bender was human?
What if that thing I said? (life more like a video game)
What if Leela had found her parents? (although she gets hit in the head and doesn't get to see her 'what if' and it is a dream of her in the wizard of oz thing)

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 07.03.2006 12:17 PM

oh yeah. I think i'd go with the second one, just because bender as a human is great. + Ive seen the first one a million times.

Alex's Trip 07.03.2006 12:19 PM

Yeah, it is a better episode overall.

What is one of your favorite episodes? Or lines? Or whatever?

I personally love Problem with the Popplers.

It has a little bit of everything. It has Zapp, Kif, the whole crew, and Lurr (ruler of Omicronion Percsi 8)

HaydenAsche 07.03.2006 12:21 PM

Leela: Where's the Professor?
Bender: Well, I was walking the professor and some crazy lady came running at me saying I stole her purse so I threw the professor at her. That didn't stop her so I had to throw this purse I found at her.

I know it's way off but it made me laugh so hard the first time I watched it.

Close enough. I think Bender says something about Morgan making him take the professor. But that part is hilarious. That episode is also really great. My favorite line is:

"You were having sex with you"
