Futurama HAS been renewed, set to start airing Fall 2004. They just don't want anyone knowing about it before hand - it's supposed to be a big surprise. So don't tell anyone!

Hey all. This is my first post to any board of any kind so I want to preface my comments by saying I'm not trying to be belligerent. However, to say that Futurama should stay dead seems to be kind of a cut to Groening and Cohen. Who's to say they don't have the talent to resurrect a team and get the show back on track. In any case, wouldn't we all support the show if it was resurrected? So I guess what I'm saying is: why be so down on the idea? I mean, it's good to have a little blind hope, right?

Dont worry you wont get flamed. I agree with you.
In fact I say the show did go just a bit downhill, but i dont think it was enough to justify cancellation.

Personally, I find it hilarious. I can hear the sarcasm in that post. Anyway, I gave up on the show coming back. Maybe a movie someday, I really couldn't tell you.

Just to chime in. I would have to say that i don't want the show to be renewed. It would have been great if the show had lasted a few more seasons. But i think that if the show were brought back, they wouldn't get the whole cast and staff back, the budget would suffer (especially if it were brought back by CN) In short, i'm happy with the 4 glorious seasons we have, and don't want them diminished because of another season or two of wannabes.

Verrone: Sorry, I'm way too busy with another project. Cohen: But, but... I've got talent! Verrone: Oh, that's right! I'll cancel my plans. Screw them! I just don't see it happening, cap.

WHAT!!??!??!?!?! Everyone has some small hope that Futurama could come back just as gloriously as before, don't they? Huh? Noo you've thrown my very perception of the universe into chaos!

As mentioned above, the reason he doesn't want it back is because it wouldn't be as glorious as before. Noo you've thrown my very perception of the universe into chaos! Heyyy, that's my line! I already said it twice today! EDITED for AF: I said it in real life today (well really yesterday). Once to my friend when I heard he was going out with a girl that's horribly wrong for him, then again when I found out my brother worked long hours today (he never does).

Oh, I didn't say it wasn't hilarious. Just that it was also incredibly mean to our less intellectually gifted members.

they have made two xmas episodes :-\ they weren't half bad, i been growing up thru the 80's to see how lame many cartoons have been at xmas specials, but futurama (going off topic here a smidgeon) and invader zim from what i have seen made the most entertaining holiday episodes, i'd laugh if they make a futurama movie soon, why? cos it'd be done sooner than a simpsons movie being talked about for yeeears..
albeit a damn shame that the show is cancelled, like the robot villagerss in the honking, "i choose to believe what i am programmed to believe" :P

What you mean that some people actually believed that?

Actually, remember that show on Fox, Grounded for Life? Fox cancelled it, and the WB picked it up and is still making new episodes.
Also, Leave it to Beaver returned as a new series and movie. (You didn't say it had to be a good return did you?)

But while we're on the subject, if Futurama were to be remade, the new episodes would always be compared with "classic" Futurama, the way the new Star Wars movies are compared with the original trilogy. While I very much doubt it will return it is always possible that if it does come back the new series would be compared favourably to the originals as with Star Trek.
