Obviously the first two seasons of Futurama are being released in the UK but what about the other two. Also i see that in the US there will be a season five on TV, is this also coming to the UK.the whole Futurama setup is so fucked at the moment i don't really know what the hell is going on. I need to know what's going on otherwise i'm going to get quite upset.  :cry:

No word yet on the other seasons on DVD.  So just be patient and we'll see  :) but most likely, we'll have season three for next christmas.


As for the rest of the seasons on TV in UK, I can't imagine them not being shown.  It just takes longer for the UK to get them on TV.

I predict a June/July 2003 release for Season 3  :) Although I have absolutely no information, it's just an educated guess  :)

I'm concerned that if new episodes are picked up by another channel, then that will affect the DVDs.

Shows in the UK don't tend to change channel like they do in the US.  Futurama going to the Cartoon Network won't affect UK DVD releases.

Since there are only five main channels to compete on terrestrial (arial) TV, and Channel 5 and one of the BBC's don't count, that makes for 3 TV channels to compete for Futurama, and normally a show doesn't change hands.

Besides which terrestrial TV has been rendered irrelevant because most new shows come to sattelite first.  New episodes of Futurama are shown on Sky over a year before reaching C4.

The DVDs aren't released by the channel, so that wouldn't affect them at all.

^^ There's even the chance the season 3 release will be moved closer to christmas so there will be more sales.

Looks like "Route of All Evil" could be out on DVD before even making it to C4.
