tvsquad.com — Comedy Central has ordered 13 new episodes of the animated series that Fox canceled two years ago. Billy West, Katey Segal and other stars signed deals this week to return the show to TV. In getting a second life, "Futurama" is following the path taken by "Family Guy," which also found post-cancellation success on DVD and cable reruns.

All Glory to the Hyptnotoad...and David X. CohenBut seriously. The thing that has to come with this is David X. Cohen. If he's not signed on, then it will die with the 13th episode. He's seriously a very important part of futurama. I'll down a bottle of Old Fortran tonight in hopes this comes to fruition!***Kittens Give Morbo Gass

Fry:.."I'd like to place a collect call"Suicide Booth:.."You have chosen... Slow and painful"Bender:.."Oooh. Good choice!"

@foolfromhell, in "Time Keeps on Slipping" they travel forward in time at random intervals, and Fry Leela get married, then divorced shortly after (the spoiler is how Fry managed to convince Leela to marry him)In "Roswell That Ends Well," Fry, Leela, Bender, Farnsworth and Zoidberg travel back in time to the Roswell incident, where it's revealed that the alien spaceship was Bender and the alien, Zoidberg.In "The Why of Fry," Fry travels back to the point where he gets frozen and has to decide whether to be cryogenically frozen or not.In "Parasites Lost," Leela falls in love with Fry after the worms Fry gets as a result of eating a truck stop sandwich make him highly intelligent.There are probably more, I'm running a little low on sleep, but 13 more episodes where there is either time travel, or more likely Fry and Leela being an item is entirely plausible.It does unfortunately take away the little oddity of the last words of the show being "I want to hear how it ends."

Actually, I kind of agree with you. It relies too much on saying "This is about as funny as the time _______" followed by a non sequiter these days. Sometimes they do it so much it's actually frustrating. That said, it's still better than most crap on TV :(

After watching the south park episode of them bashing Family Guy, the flashbacks become more pronounced. But I find they add to the story. They bring forth another chuckle even if it isn't part of the main story."This is almost as bad as the time I played Marco Polo with Helen Keller....Marco.... Marco.... Marco..... Marco."That's just funny.
