Good news, everyone!
Everybody’s favorite cancelled Fox animated show (well, for Family Guy fans with long memories, second favorite) is getting even more years of life: Comedy Central’s Futurama has been renewed for two more years, say sources close to the production.
The network has picked up another two cycles of 13 episodes — and neither include the upcoming batch that launches this June. So that keeps Futurama on the air through 2013. (Whether the order is called the seventh season, or the eighth and ninth season, is still being debated — since seasons on Comedy Central are split over two years do you call each year’s batch a season or do you call the full 26 episode order a season?) At any rate, last season averaged 2.5 million viewers per week once DVR is added in.

Woo-hoo! More new Futurama! Thrilled doesn't even BEGIN to cover how I feel about this!
ReplyDelete:O! That's wonderful :D. I love animated comedies. They have this strange ability to come back from the grave when all other shows would disappear into oblivion.
ReplyDeleteKnowing that I still have 39 unseen episodes of Futurama in front of me is one of the best feeling I ever had.
ReplyDeleteAwesome news. Together with Archer, South Park (although I wasn't the biggest fan of the last 2 seasons) and The Ricky Gervais Show, Futurama is one of my fav animated shows. Can't wait for June when it's returning!
ReplyDeleteWOO-HOO!! Alright! Do the Bender! ::shakes my shiny metal ass::
ReplyDeleteAWESOME!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAmazing news! I love me some Bender, Fry, Leela, the gang!
ReplyDeleteI watched that when I was like 12 and my dad too, soo cool (my dad wasnt 12.... making sure you're following me)

ReplyDeleteWonderful news! Unlike Family Guy's return, Futurama kept up its quality! Next couple years should be great with Futurama in them! Welcome to the world of tomorrow!!!
