I like me some Futurama. It's not as awesome as the BDS but it's still fairly awesome.

Futurama is pretty good, but I'm more a Family Guy fan its freaking sweet, so glad they brought it back to TV lets hope they do the same for FF. FG was cancelled then brought back because of DVD sales, So I think we got a good chance to see more FF.

Ladies and gentlemen. For your viewing entertainment, the ramblings of a guy who drank coffee and an energy drink at around 11 PM and is bored at 3:30 in the morning. Here we go.

I am a huge FUTURAMA fan. I have all the DVD's and I'm eagerly awaiting the direct-to-DVD movies of them that are now in development. I actually think FUTURAMA is better than THE SIMPSONS. THE SIMPSONS for the last 8 years or so has been nning on empty. I don't even bother with the new eps anymore. FUTURAMA only lasted a quarter of the lenght of SIMPSONS, but it actually got better over the years.

And it's weird how many parallels there are between it and FIREFLY. In a weird way, FUTURAMA is kind of the animated series version of FIREFLY, just with different dynamics.

Here are some random quotes I always liked.

Fry: "It's the future! My parents, my coworkers, my girlfriend. I'll never see any of them again! Yahooo!"

Scientist1: "Welcome to the world of tomorrow!"
Scientist2: "Why do always have to say it that way?"
Scientist1: "Haven't you ever heard of a little thing called showmanship? Come, your destiny awaits!"

Hermes: "Ok Captain, this is just a standard legal release protecting Planet Express from lawsuits in the event of the unforeseen."
Leela: "Death by airlock failure."
Hermes: "Mm-hm."
Leela: "Death by brain parasite."
Hermes: "Yeah"
Leela: "Death by sonic diarrhea."
Hermes: "Oh ho, you don't want that."
Leela: "Look. I don't know about your previous captains, but I intend to do as little dying as possible."
Hermes: (laughs) "Sign the paper."

Zoidberg: "Now open your mouth and let's have a look at that brain. No, nononono, not that mouth."
Fry: "I only have one."
Zoidberg: "Really?"
Fry: "Uh...is there a human doctor around?"
Zoidberg: "Young lady! I'm an expert on humans. Now pick a mouth, open it, and say" (warbling noise)
Fry: "Uh.." (clears throat and does his best imitation)
Zoidberg: "What! My mother was a saint!!! Get out!"

Bender: "Oh, no room for Bender, huh? Fine, I'll go build my own lunar lander! With blackjack and hookers! In fact, forget the lunar lander and the blackjack! Ah, screw the whole thing."

Bender: *snore* "Kill all humans...Kill all humans...Must kill all hu..."
Fry: "Bender, wake up!"
Bender: "I was having the most wonderful dream! I think you were in it."

Fry: "Hm...I'm not sure we wanna pay for a dimension we're not gonna use."

Woman: "You're from the 20th century? That's incredible, I'm from the 21st century!"
Fry: "No way! We've got so much in common."
Woman: "We sure do. Remember when those cyborgs enslaved humanity?"
Fry: "Uh...Yeah! That rings a bell."

Kif: "Fatso says you're free to go."

Robot Judge: "Thank you, prosecutor. I will now consider the evidence."
Fry: "Hey, wait a minute! Isn't anyone gonna defend us?"
Leela: "Yeah! I mean, he may not have a case...but I'm genuinely not human!"
Robot: "Quiet, human!" (collective gasp)
Robot #2: "Uh oh, he froze up again."
Robot #3: "Try control, alt, delete!"
Robot #4: "Jiggle the cord!"
Robot #5: "Turn him off and on!"
Robot #6: "Clean the gunk out of the mouse!"
Fry: "Call technical support!"
Robot #2: "Ok, ok, he's back online."

Fry: "Stop! Take one more step, and I'll...breathe fire on you!"
Leela: "He'll do it! He's crazy!"
Robot #1: "Can they really breathe fire, or did we make that up?"
Robot #2: "Gee, I can't remember anymore. It might just be from that stupid movie."
Robot #3: "Was that the original or the remake?"
Robot #4: "I don't...hey, they're getting away!"

Fry: "Ok, my friends, get ready for the most delicious extinct animal you've ever tasted!"
Amy: "I dunno, I've had cow."

Professor: "Good news, everyone."
Bender: "Uh oh. I don't like the sound of that."
Professor: "You'll be making a delivery to the planet Trisol."
Bender: "Here it comes."
Professor: "A mysterious world in the darkest depths of the Forbidden Zone."
Bender: "Thank you, and goodnight."
Leela: "Uh, Professor, are we even allowed in the Forbidden Zone?"
Professor: "Why, of cou

Right there with you. I love Futurama too and was really sad to see it go. My collection sits proudly on my shelf right next to Firefly...

They're bringing it back because yes the DVD sales and Adult Swim. I think a lot of people bought those DVDs because they saw the repeats on Adult Swim and loved it.

The same thing happened to Futurama, and that's being brought back.

Fox is just really bad at getting shows watched. They cancel such great things without even giving them a chance, moving their show times around and making sure the show isn't noticed. Unless it's reality.
