Futurama May Strike Back (on DVD)
Nik writes "Hot on the heels of Family Guy's revival, Can't Get Enough Futurama is reporting that 'there is renewed talk at FOX about bringing fresh Futurama content directly to DVD.' While nothing is confirmed at this point, it is apparently the first time that a division of Fox has considered producing new episodes of the animated sci-fi series in some time."
.. the Simpsons can kiss my shiny metal ass.
This is my favorite series.
I'd assume the "sci fi" misconception stems from the fact that it takes place in the future, and there are space ships and aliens, and they travel to different planets, and a robot is a main character. It amazes me the number of people who don't realise that it is a historical medical drama. Really just a Dr. Quinn rip off.
It doesn't look so shiny to me.
No sig today.
Morbo is pleased.
I cannot freaking WAIT to downl.. I mean... BUY this!
("I kid, I kid!")
Fry: You got that off the internet? In my day we only used the internet for pornography.
Professor: Oh, that's still true.
Hermes: Behold the internet!
Fry: My God! It's full of ads!
But the number of people who loved "Firefly" is greater than those who loved "Everybody Loves Raymond", so it sold more DVDs.
But I thought everybody loved Raymond?
(I can't believe nobody took that one before me!)
Cartoon Network said ti best when they called it an "Action Cartoon Sci-Fi Comedy Drama that redefines Action Cartoon Sci-Fi Comedy Dramas".
Unless of course the commercials are for Molten Boron.
Nobody doesn't like Molten Boron
"PUNY FOX EXECUTIVE, you will bring back futurama or suffer the wrath of MORBO!!!"
"aah hah hah. that's nice."
Announcer at the races: "It's a quantum finish..."
Prof: "Damn you! You changed the result by oberving it!"
Genius.
This Futurama DVD is brought to you in association with Thompson's Teeth! The only teeth strong enough to eat other teeth!

If Matt Groening takes that kind of work to Futurama I would rather go without new episodes of Futurama.
The last Simpsons episode I found funny was Tree House of Horror 12.
Carl: You know, I was hexed by a troll and a leprechaun cured that right up.
Lenny: Hey you know what's even better is Jesus. He's like.. 6 leprechauns!
Carl: Yeah, but a lot harder to catch. Go with the leprechaun.
Who are the pricks who modded me -1 Troll? Asking for a torrent was obviously a joke. Christ on a cracker, go fuck yourselves, you humorless right wing son of a bitch bloggers.
I can't possibly imagine why anyone would mod you down for trolling.
You can't take the sky from me...
Network President: "Greetings gentlemen, you already know my Execubots. Executive Alpha, programmed to like things that are seen before. Executive Beta, programmed to roll dice to determine the fall schedule... And Executive Gamma, programmed to underestimate middle America."
(.....Bring back Futurama.....)
Annoyingly hypnotic buzzing sound convinces all that this is wise.
...when I go to buy it, will there be a bunch of football videos on the shelf where Futurama should be?
