Also, the article refers to season 7 as Futurama's second season. Obviously, they mean the second season since coming back from cancellation, but still.
It also calls Decision 3012 'Indecision 3012'... Everyone seems to have trouble with the name of that ep, I've seen 'Decision 2012' and 'Election 3012' too.

They actually say 'the second season on its second network', so they are not even being ambiguous on that matter.

Looking back at 7A, I think I was a bit disappointed, though I'm not sure why. It didn't have a single episode that was outright bad, and although there were a few really good ones, something didn't click for me.
I have no idea why, and that's what bugs me.
I agree... I think it's b/c there was far less truly bad stuff... but also inversely there was less truly amazing stuff. It was all pretty good and average.. which isn't a bad thing... but it doesn't make for many memorable moments.

I remember having the same sort of feeling about the show during the first run Fox years. It wasn't until the pretty much nightly rebroadcasts on Adult Swim that a lot of the show's coolness became apparent.

I enjoyed season 7a with the same consistancy that I enjoyed any half-season in the original run. Same for 6b, actually. I think it just took them awhile to get revved up again.

Jrrr must be Lrrr's son. Probably a 7B recording, since we got a episode about Lrrr's son coming next year.

One of the cast members during the Livestream (I believe it was Matt Groening) said that one episode of the upcoming broadcast season will feature Fry in the Omicronian Royal Palace and Fry converses with Jrr, who we last saw as an infant thirteen years ago, who has now become thirteen years old.
Remember, we probably won't hear anything until the decision to renew or kill Futurama is made in January. Rumors, sure, but nothing is official until then.

I got a good feeling for Season 7B. Sounds more promising than last season did.
Shut up. Everyone on PEEL says that every year and you all fucking complain each time.

Umm, I never really complain when it comes to Futurama. I love this show more than anything! This is my first time saying this! Some people just say this kind of stuff for spamming or just trying to annoy others. But i'm saying this out of concern. Season 6A WAS great around a 8.5/10. It got better as it progressed. 6B was a 9.4/10 for me. I thought PI, IAGDL, ACW, and LN were the big stinkers of season 6A. The rest, I loved! Except Rebirth, that was like a 7/10. 6B's worst was YLL, ATPH, and Neutopia were the stinkers of that season. Not really bad episodes, but were like meh. This season was pretty good, but some things felt dry/uninteresting to be honest. But there were a lot of good gags, and very funny moments! My top four for that season right now are Fun on a Bun, The Bots and the Bees, Vivas Mars Vegas, and Near-Death Wish. I mean it's just my opinion, don't take it so critical. And we know very little about 7B, but what I've heard about it so far sounds awesome. Better than what we heard about 7A last year to be honest. I'm kinda excited about the Guenter and Banjo one, because I liked Guenter in "Mars University". I thought that episode was really underrated. But I'm not really in it for Banjo though, because I disliked him alot in "A Clockwork Origin". But hopefully, it'll be a good surprise.

Well, I know what I'll be asking my husband to get me for Christmas. Yippee! Of course due to shipping and all that it probably won't materialize 'til afterwards but all the same.

Wow, really. Bringing back Guenter, possibly one of the most annoying characters in Futurama? Give me a break.

Remember how Cubert used to be super-annoying, and then they managed to make him bearable in season 6? The same could happen here.
To be fair, Guenter kind of gets that same kind of redemptive character arc in miniature: he starts out "Mars University" as an annoying, know-it-all foil for Fry--but, by episode's end, he winds up being a fairly sympathetic character. Which is to say, I don't think the character really needs to be brought back. But, if he simply must appear in a future episode, I sure do hope we get the charming, wearing-a-hat-on-his-butt version of the character as opposed to the more antagonistically irritating one.
