Futurama will return to TV. Comedy Central has picked up the rights to air all the old episodes, plus new episodes to be created.

The second dumbest thing Fox ever did was cancel Futurama.* What did they think, that the Simpsons would last forever? It’s already lingered well past its sell-by date and should have gone into syndication immortality years ago. Perhaps once the Simpsons Movie comes along, they’ll le the show go off the air and save those of us who grew up with it the horror of watching it turn into a mediocre parody of itself. Futurama was going to be the inheritor of the Simpson’s genius. But Fox, never imaginative enough to look too hard into the future, couldn’t see that. luckily, the folks at Comedy Central can.
