It's only shit newz if you have no taste in anything... which I suppose in your case would be an apt statement.
 I still love all the original seasons but I do agree that the DVD movies were 95% turdage. I think the main reason they were so awful was that they has moved beyond their native format of ~25minute runtime and the normally quick-fire comedy and storylines became too thin to maintain any momentum. The Simpsons movie suffered the same fate IMO.I'm betting that since they're returning to an actual episodic format the quality should return. |

Exactly, I enjoyed the dvd movies but they werent up to the quality of the tv seasons (since the bar was set so high with them).
And Diggs, what do you mean by "the last few seasons"? There were only 4 in total!! You have no taste  -------------------- Crieff is deified. The clans tell tales of him, few know the truth. He was mortal once, as were we all.

NEW FUTURAMA EPIC FAIL
QUOTE "We love the Futurama voice performers and absolutely wanted to use them, but unfortunately, we could not meet their salary demands. While replacing these talented actors will be difficult, the show must go on. We are confident that we will find terrific new performers to give voice to Matt and David's brilliantly subversive characters." -------------------- |

From TheStar.com
QUOTE LOS ANGELES–The Star has learned exclusively that the entire voice cast of Futurama has just signed a new contract with Fox after weeks of intense salary negotiations. As late as last week, the network was threatening to replace the original voices of Matt Groening's cult-hit cartoon, to the point of actually announcing a casting call for voice actors to replace them. The Futurama voice cast includes John DiMaggio, Maurice LaMarche, Billy West, Tress MacNeille and Katey Sagal. The compromise agreement, with the studio paying more and the actors accepting less, comes after the announcement of a 26-episode pick-up here by Comedy Central. Futurama also airs internationally in syndication, has produced four bestselling straight-to-DVD movies (later cut into episodes) and an upcoming feature film. "We are thrilled to have our incredible cast back. The call has already `gone out to the animators to put the mouths back on the characters," Futurama creators Groening and David X. Cohen said in a joint statement. w00t!  |

Did that controversy with the voice actors get sorted in the end?
