I only hope Zapp Brannigan plays a major role - he steals the show in my book. Best Shatner parody ever.

Finally, a good show on TV.

Random celebratory quote:

Nothing about Zap is straight, except MAYBE his bagging of Leela, and we all know that's only because he mis-interpreted being 'introduced to a one eyed friend' :)

The show will return as a full-length, high-def film sold on DVD.

But does it come in a convenient suppository format?

I hope not! There's nothing as annoying as downloading a movie to find out it's the french or spanish version. By the way, the very reason many spanish don't *speak* english while they can read and write it perfectly well is because they dub everything (badly, by the way). Watch the english version. It's way more enjoyable anyway.

Here's mine (from memory, may not be 100% accurate):
"God Lord! Thats over 150 atmospheres of pressure!
How many atmospheres can the ship withstand, professor?
Well it's a spacship. So anywhere between 0 and 1."
I think the number of people in the general population that would get that joke is one reason the series was canceled.

You've GOT to be kidding me. Zapp Brannigsn is the most fucking annoying Futurama character.

You're obviously confused and aroused.

Don't you just hate it when someone follows up a joke with another joke, and the humorless git who posted the original thinks the other person "just didn't get it"?

I was with you until you used a racist slur against people from Mongolia. Seriously, is that fucking necessary?

Oh, sure, you bleeding hearts whine about the poor oppressed Mongols now, but you'll be shitting your pants and crying for your mama when the horde is breaching your walls.

Maybe Fox will prempt Futurama yet again by slipping some lousy NFL highlights video into the Futurama DVD jacket instead.

Terrific news about 16 new episodes though! Katay Sagal needs the work.

Nah, the reason the series was cancelled was not because so few people got that joke, but that of those that did, 90% of them thought, "That doesn't make any sense. Does he mean Earth atmosphere? Or Jovian? Or Martian?"
Did you really just claim to be too nerdy for the jokes from Futurama? Is that overachieving or underachiving?
