Good News Everyone... Futurama is back!

So its blurry and someone moves around in front of it a little and the audio sucks... But, that makes it all the better of a teaser right? Cartoon Network couldn't have done better if they tried!

It sure cheered me up on this gloomy Monday morning. The Professor tells us that the execs responsible for canceling Futurama were themselves fired... And then died... Its official (kinda) the first in the wild commercial for the series new episodes. I have heard it through the grape vine that the episodes will be hitting DVD before making it to cartoon network. Sorry fox. Next time watch who you cancel as this isn't the first Resurrection cough family guy cough. And now for your geekey perusal (or until we get bombarded with take down notices anyways)...

As Bender so elequently put it... I'm back baby... Now kiss my shiny metal ASS!

The future is back! The first new “Futurama” programming since 2003, Futurama: Bender’s Big Score features out-of-this-world hilarity on DVD November 27 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment.
As Xmas 3007 approaches, the “Futurama” crew must fight to save Earth in an epic battle against nudist alien Internet scammers. When the evil naked aliens launch a cyber-attack on Planet Express, they make a shocking discovery: the secret of time travel, mysteriously tattooed on Fry’s buttocks. Using their devious nudist software to control Bender, they repeatedly send the beer-fueled robot back in time to loot Earth of its greatest treasures. Bender’s rampage through history has shocking repercussions when he encounters Al Gore (guest-starring as himself) during the 2000 Presidential recount. Meanwhile, Leela finds true love, a beloved crew member suffers an embarrassing decapitation, and Fry learns deep secrets about his destiny and his buttocks.

Featuring:


1) Al Gore, Coolio and Sarah Silverman guest star.
2) Complete commentary by Matt Groening, David X. Cohen, and cast members
3) All new, full-length episode of “Everybody Loves Hypnotoad”, including TV commercials of the future
4) Mind-bending Futurama math lecture by Professor Sarah Greenwald
5) Promo for “An Inconvenient Truth” starring Bender and Al Gore, including commentary by the former Vice President

Do you hear that? That’s the sound of millions of people with good taste in TV cheering the return of Futurama! Fans of the series will be glad to know that the show will return on November 27th as a full-length movie being released on DVD. The initial release will be followed by 3 more DVD movies! After all 4 DVD movies have been released, they’ll be chopped up into 16 episodes which will air on Comedy Central along with NEW episodes created for Comedy Central. Welcome back Futurama, welcome back! [TheAnimationBlog]
