Matt Groening Talks About Futurama's Comeback

Posted by Zonk on from the you-seem-malnourished-are-you-suffering-from-internal-parasites- dept.

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."

    it died because:

      it wasn't given a consistent timeslot
      it was constantly preempted by sporting events
      it was NEVER promoted by fox
    fox is stupid

    i don't need to cite sources, as all of these are fairly well established (or i'm lazy)
