Ok, I'm new to this board - a longtime lurker actually, and I've watched Futurama since it debuted in the UK. Everyone can say I'm not qualified to make posts like this, and they're right. FUTURAMA IS GOING TO BE CANCELLED. That means NO NEW EPISODES. EVER. I know this is pretty inevitable. I think the decision has more or less been made, as Fox yet again re-airing the absolutely vomit-inducingly bad 'Large Marge' instead of Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles, made clear. I wholeheartedly believe that Fux never intend to air another Futurama. I live in Denmark now, the only way I can see new episodes is through the mindnumbing process of Kazaa downloads, and importing the DVDs. I'm not in a position to do anything to save OUR show other than letter writing, petition signing, etc.´I have tried all these things. But PLEASE anyone who lives near FOX offices, please get together and protest, boycott etc. in any way you can. Contact your local press and get them to cover it - something I totally thing should have been done with the CGEF petition. This all puts pressure on FOX. OK, Futurama probably is dead, but at least if you do something - write a letter, protest, anything - you'll know you gave it a shot. *steps down from soapbox* And Fox?

PLEASE anyone who lives near FOX offices, please get together and protest, boycott etc... A) Not going to happen. B) Would have little if any effect if it did. Fox is a profit-driven enterprise. The only way to overcome the Fox Exec's vendetta against Futurama & Matt G., is by hitting them where it will get their attention: Profit.Specifically, the loss of said profit. Given the whole situation between Fox & Matt G., exactly how to accomplish this is beyond my humble talents to discern. This is not unlike that "Married With Children" thang, only we're trying to keep a show on the air, not get it off the air! Ah, hope springs eternal...
