An optimistic question would be, did the Futurama DVD's outsell Family Guy?
Over here, I think they did.

Well, I'd much rather Futurama come back (being my 2nd favourite show), but still - at least there's a high possibility my third favourite might return!

I hope Family Guy gets renewed although I don't see it as a sign of Futurama coming back.

It makes me kind of happy because I really like FG so it's good, but it just makes me think how cool it would be to have this happening to Futurama, so it makes me kind of sad.

Family Guy already did this, the episodes were different but were still funny.

Yeah - it almost got cancelled after Season 2 had aired, but was revived at the 11th hour. Also, El Zilcho - Futurama wasn't cancelled because Fox were pissed at Groening. It was cancelled due to bad ratings (which were caused by Fox's ignorance and stupidity). Matt Groening's anger towards Fox really was only a SMALL contribution toward's Futurama's cancellation.

I meant ignorance and stupidity as in "they didn't realise what a good show they were destroying." It was obvious that Fox tried to sweep Futurama under the carpet, so to speak, but their reasons for doing so were pure idiocy on their behalf.

SOME episodes of Family Guy DO actually make good points (e.g. The King Is Dead) but most of them are just for laughs, as Newhook said.

Fry: "It looks like Bender learned an important lesson about respecting other people.." Professor: "No, wait, it was running at triple capacity." Bender: "And I still hardly felt a thing!"
