New Futurama speculations (Spoilers ahoy)

[Reply #360 on:]

I have an idea about the amy/bender relationship; I think bender just wants to marry amy and divorce her for her cash.  If this episode is done very well, I predict an emmy nom for it, because hollywood loves when tv shows take on current events. South Park for example.

[Reply #361 on:]

We already figured that out.

[Reply #362 on:]

Actually, that was kind of already done in "Bend Her".

[Reply #363 on:]

They said the Bender/Amy fling would be a parody of some movie or TV show (forgot what) on gay marriage.

Probably The L Word, or Queer as Folk, renamed 'The R Word' (for Robosexual), or... I can't think of one for Queer as Folk. Help!

Queer as Bots?

It's not very good but it's all I got

That'll do, Boosh.
That'll do.

im too lazy to look for the aproriate thread, or to spell apropriate correctly

its to do with all of the "recasting" shizzle.


"Dear Futurama Fan,


Thank you for voicing your strong support for Futurama and the original voice cast.  We appreciate the time you took to fire off a thoughtful and/or concerned and/or homicidal e-mail message to our casting director, Scott Muller.  (Rest assured, not a single one of these e-mails reached the actual decision-makers at 20th Century Fox Television.  For future reference, please note that Scott Muller is in fact one of Futurama's biggest fans, and was instrumental in bringing about the return of the cast.  Please hoist a bottle of Olde Fortran for Scott!)


Speaking of the cast returning...  good news, everyone!  The cast is returning!  All of our series regulars are back in action for Season 6.  Billy West, Katey Sagal, John DiMaggio, Maurice LaMarche, Tress MacNeille, Lauren Tom, Phil LaMarr, and David Herman are all on board and have already begun delivering their customary virtuoso performances.  The all-new Futurama episodes are slated to air on Comedy Central beginning in June, 2010.


We are extremely grateful for the outpouring of support for the series.  Your loyalty over the years has kept the show going through its original four seasons on FOX, its subsequent reincarnations on Adult Swim and DVD, and now its Bendiferous return to life on Comedy Central.  See you in the (near) future!


Sincerely,

David X. Cohen & Matt Groening"


i wonder how they managed to send a reply to all the folks who emailed the guy without getting raped by a spam filter :/

June 2010 eh?....start the countdown!

[Reply #369 on:]

June eh?

has this been said anywhere before?

[Reply #370 on:]

Nope.

[Reply #371 on:]

I'd better mark my next calender... or make my own.

[Reply #372 on:]

At last, something worth-watching on during the summer!

[Reply #373 on:]

I am the turtle, the month June 2010 is the pidgeon.

[Reply #374 on:]

I... didn't know turtles ate birds.
If it's even possible, they just became cooler.

[Reply #375 on:]

I LOVE BEING A TURTLE!!! is what that turtle was probably thinking.

[Reply #376 on:]

Cowa-fucking-bunga.

[Reply #377 on:]

Huh, turtles are alot like Bender....

[Reply #378 on:]

Ninja turtle!

[Reply #379 on:]

I'm so full of angst, it's shooting out like angst diarrhea!

[Reply #380 on:]

That's sweet news about the show airing in June of next year. It kind of assuages my concerns about being too dweeby and busy with college to catch the new episodes. And, like I mentioned elsewhere, premiering new episodes in the summer will probably garner the show some pretty good ratings, seeing as how it's usually slim pickin's in TV Land that time of year.

[Reply #381 on:]

So if Futurama airs on CC in June, do you think that Fox would start showing them in September alongside FG, AD & the Simpsons? The first 13 episode run should have finished by then and Fox will definitely want to show them

Only if the Cleveland Show is cancelled...and Fox already ordered a second season of the crap. 35 episodes of pain...

There's gonna be more episodes in two seasons of THAT on Fox then Futurama on CC? That's so wrong in so many ways I can't count them all!

[Reply #384 on:]

Yeah but knowing FOX they'd probably stick Futurama on earlier or on a different day
And I agree that The Cleveland show is über crap but Fox seem to love Seth McFarlane so of course they're going to make more episodes. Who needs intelligent programming anyway? Just throw in some fart jokes and the people will love it.

Idiots are taking over the world. Everything on TV now is all poop jokes and mindless gibberish.

[Reply #386 on:]

Agreed...reality shows like Big Brother as well, they are so crap it's unbelievable how people can like it.

[Reply #387 on:]

It's not even really that much poop jokes anymore, just reality/game shows...

[Reply #388 on:]

Yeah, who really wants to watch a reality show about the Octomom?

[Reply #389 on:]

Idiots who need something to watch with other idiots.

[Reply #390 on:]

There was a show for that- Beavis and Butthead, probably THE dumbest peice of crap ever shown on TV.

[Reply #391 on:]

Considering the aforementioned reality/game shows that are like the only things on tv anymore, I'd have to disagree

DXC Wrote an episode of that.

[Reply #393 on:]

He probably needed the money.

The only good thing about B&B was watching the two little pricks get the shit beaten out of them.

Even though you're using sarcasm you might want to tone that down just a little bit....

[Reply #396 on:]

[sarcasm]You're one of those censors! You're just upset that a character is named Butthead![/sarcasm]
Okay. I'll not do that LOL routine again.

Also, I AM NOT GONN-A GO-A GREEN-A.

Actually, there's one good thing about Beavis and Butthead: we got Daria out of it.

[Reply #399 on:]

They're all pretty unimpressive.
