The Planet Express ship will soon make its final delivery.
Comedy Central has decided not to renew Futurama, which means that the 31st-century-set animated comedy will end its 140-episode run on Sept. 4. The final 13 episodes, which represent the second half of season 7, begin airing on June 19 at 10 p.m.
Futurama is no stranger to cancellation, of course: The series aired from 1999 to 2003 before Fox sent Fry & Co. into oblivion. After thriving in reruns on Adult Swim, Futurama was relaunched in 2007 with four-direct-to-DVD movies that Comedy Central ran in half-hour increments as a 16-episode fifth season in 2008-09. Comedy Central subsequently ordered a sixth season of 26 episodes, which aired in 2010-11, and a seventh season of 26 episodes, the first half of which debuted in 2012.

I should be sad, but i am not
ReplyDeleteI loved this show, but with it being on Comedy Central, its so unaccessible to me, gutted tho, it is a good show.
ReplyDeleteThis title made me laugh, lol, not sure why. I liked the 'again'. :P Don't know if i am sad or not, i have failed to watch the new series. I will some day, i guess from other comments that it's perhaps not so good as before?
ReplyDeleteI laughed at 'again' also! :P
ReplyDeleteDefinitely not as good as before, even though not bad and still enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteWhen it's good, it's awesome. But it's rare these days that it's good. Not as sad as I would have been (and was) once upon a time but it is a shame to see it go.
ReplyDeleteAww shame not a show I catch regularly but one that does some really touching heartbreaking episodes and definitely one of the best animated shows currently on.
ReplyDeleteCool, i will definitely give it a go soon then.
ReplyDeleteCool, I can cope with enjoyable, I'll try it soon.
