Matt Groening Talks About Futurama's Comeback

Joel Keller writes "When I was at the Television Critics Association press tour earlier last month, I briefly talked to Matt Groening about Futurama's comeback. I posted the interview to TV Squad a couple of days ago. The man behind the Simpsons and Futurama talks about the latter's comeback, the fun of doing sci-fi in a comedy format, and a few words about the first episode to air on Comedy Central."

    Yes I too enjoyed that episode of South Park. Kudos to your original commentary. We could all learn a thing or two from you.

    We also have Rough Draft Studios animating once again,

    But will the new episodes be painstakingly drawn before a live audience?

    Which probably means they didn't understand any of the jokes, either.

    No sconeu, very few cartoons are broadcast live; it's a terrible strain on the animators' wrists.
