I did a search and didn't see this anywhere else.

New episodes of the resurrected animation favorite "Futurama" will return to Comedy Central in June.

Comedy Central sources confirm that Thursday, June 24 at 10:00 p.m. is currently set to be the premiere of the first new half-hour episode of "Futurama"since 2003.

Fan enthusiasm was temporarily tempered by overblown reports that the vocal talent including Billy West, John DiMaggio and Katey Sagal might be replaced for the run of new episodes. Eventually, the full cast reached new agreements and Philip Fry, Bender, Leela and the rest of the "Futurama" gang will sound very much like you're used to them sounding.

Good news! I have only been waiting for 7 years.

As long as billy west is back...so many hilarious characters on that show.

Those straight to DVD movies were pretty damn good. This is great news says the Hypno Toad.

GreenLantern · 03-19-2010, 11:27 AM

Futurama is one show where I actually enjoy EVERY character.

Can't wait to get Zoidberg back.

Man I really hated Zoidberg.

What? I thought he was hilarious. That episode where he goes back to his home planet to find a mate is one of my favourites. So much gold in that one:

Dr. Zoidberg: I want the tactile pleasure in cutting him here...
[points his claw at Fry's neck]
Dr. Zoidberg: ... in the gonads.
Fry: [to crowd] Shhhhhh. Nobody correct him.

[Fry is being Zoidberg's Cyrano]
Fry: Start with a compliment. Tell her she looks thin.
Dr. Zoidberg: [calling to Edna] You seem malnourished. Are you suffering from internal parasites?
Edna: [pleased] Why, yes. Thanks for noticing.

[Edna, one of Zoidberg's species, is chasing Fry romantically]
Edna: Teach me to love, you squishy poet from beyond the stars.
Fry: [horrified] I'm flattered, really. If I was gonna do it with a big freaky mud bug, you'd be way up the list.
Edna: Hush, you romantic fool. Engage your mandibles and kiss me.

Fry: Okay, you're on a date. What's the first thing you do?
Dr. Zoidberg: Ask her to mate with me.
Fry: No, tell her she's special.
Dr. Zoidberg: But she's not, she's merely the female with the largest clutch of eggs.
Fry: Well, tell her that. And then what?
Dr. Zoidberg: Then mating.
Fry: No, make up some feelings and tell her you have them.
[Dr. Zoidberg raises his hand]
Fry: Yes?
Dr. Zoidberg: Is desire to mate a feeling?
Fry: Ugh, you're not even trying.
Dr. Zoidberg: Ohhh, it's all so complicated, with the flowers, and the romance, and the lies upon lies.

Fantastic!

As far as zoidberg goes, about the only episode I actually liked him was where he got the $300 stimulus cheque.

"I'd like one art, please."

Zoidberg is awesome. He is the Edmonton Oilers of television. A failure if you guys don't get it.

photon · 03-19-2010, 12:59 PM

Zoidberg and his sandwich portfolio!

EDIT: That whole 80's guy mom buying Planet Express episode was great.

3 Justin 3 · 03-19-2010, 01:05 PM

The best episode though is with Slurm McKenzie.

4X4 · 03-19-2010, 01:08 PM

Nay. The best episode is the one with all the universes in the boxes.

3 Justin 3 · 03-19-2010, 01:10 PM

That one was quite awesome as well.

I just forgot about my all time favorite one though, the one where they go back through time to Roswell and Fry becomes his one grandfather.

Rhettzky · 03-19-2010, 01:15 PM

^^
That one was awesome. My fave too.

Professor Hubert Farnsworth: Above all else it is our sacred duty to preserve the past just as it is.
[Fry walks in]
Fry: Well, I've killed my grandfather.
Professor Hubert Farnsworth: Whaaaaaaaa?
Leela: Wait, if you killed your grandfather, why do you still exist?
Fry: I don't know. Maybe God loves me.
[Bender laughs maniacally]

Fry: But won't that change history?
Professor Hubert Farnsworth: [ultra sarcastic] Ohh, a lesson in not changing history from Mr. "I'm My Own Grandfather"! Let's just steal the damn dish and get out of here! Screw history!

Leela: Have you seen today's news?
Bender: High school gym renovations on schedule? What a load!
Leela: No, over here! Flying saucer captured!
Bender: That's no flying saucer. That's my ass!

Professor Hubert Farnsworth: You mustn't interfere with the past. Don't do anything that affects anything. Unless it turns out that you were supposed to do it; in which case, for the love of God, don't not do it!
Fry: Got it.
Professor Hubert Farnsworth: If, for example, you were to kill your grandfather, you would cease to exist.
Fry: [gasp] But existing is basically all I do!

That episode won an Emmy award by the way.

Does he not know?
He does not know.
He knows not?
Knows not, does he!
Not, he knows?

My favourite is the popplers one:

Lrrr: People of Earth- Oh, that hippie's starting to kick in. we've all learned a valuable lesson today. I realise now that- Dude! My hand are huge! They can touch anything but themselves. (He puts his hands together) Oh, wait.

I love people who are acting like they're high..
