Futurama Is Back!

That's right, people. The smartest comedy about red heads and robots in the future is back.... almost. On June 24th, Comedy Central will premiere two brand new episodes that may or may not be a continuation of where the last movie ("Into the Wild Green Yonder") left off. I don't know much about the episode but i do know that it is called, "Rebirth". Also, they have released ONE screenshot from one of the episodes (see above). In total, there will be 26 new episodes for the new season with all the cast and crew returning. I don't think there are words for how exited i am for this. Futurama has been one of my favorite shows since it premiered back in '99. Though ill admit that i am a huge Matt Groening fanboy and would buy anything he put out. We can only hope Comedy Central doesn't fuck this up the way they've turned South Park into a battleground of sorts between the creators and fans, and the network. Though, Matt Groening has never needed to be controversial to be funny. Kinda like Bill Cosby. And what is with this trend for Fox where they will cancel a show and then bring it back after it becomes a huge success on the internet and DVD. We all remember Family Guy doing this exact thing. Are there any other shows they should bring back from the dead? what are your thoughts on the return of Futurama? Commmmmennnnnt.
