Futurama Had Lost Its Spark
As sad as it may seem that Comedy Central is canceling Futurama with the upcoming eighth season, it’s past time for the once-hilarious animated series to say goodbye.
As sad as it may seem that Comedy Central is canceling Futurama with the upcoming eighth season, it’s past time for the once-hilarious animated series to say goodbye.
Comedy Central announced today that the upcoming 13-episode season of Futurama will be the last for the animated series that found new life on the cable network in 2008.
Creator Matt Groening and the cast and crew of Futurama appeared at Comic-Con International to preview the new season, hand out prizes and celebrate that the show is still on the air.
Futurama is officially set for a seventh season, with 26 episodes to air across 2012 and 2013.
Move over, Jon Stewart; Comedy Central has a new ratings winner, and it’s one that’s less dependent on cameos from Olivia Munn and John Hodgman… Well, so far: The little show that could, Futurama.
More than seven years after being canceled by Fox, Futurama returned this week to Comedy Central with a pair of new episodes, “Rebirth” and “In-A-Gadda-Da-Leela.”
Futurama returns on June 24th with the first of twelve all-new episodes. But if you’ve missed the past five seasons of the space-age comedy, never fear: You can catch up with everything in just nine minutes. No, seriously.
The arrival of summer doesn’t signal a drought of genre television series. Spinoff Online offers a rundown of science fiction, fantasy and horror viewing for the Dog Days, from True Blood and The Phantom to Futurama and The Venture Bros.
Good news, everybody! Comedy Central has begun its “Countdown to Futurama” by announcing the eagerly awaited sixth season will debut June 24 at 10 p.m. EST/PST. Better yet, the network has released the first still from the premiere episode, rather appropriately titled “Rebirth.”
