i just about peed myself in the kitchen last night when steg told me this joyous news. and my second reaction was, "god, please don't let it suck"

[Sarky Devotchka]

it's gonna suck, I can tell already.

[SobaViolence]

katy segal was on the late late show with that scottish guy 2-3 nights ago.

it'll be good.

oh man, yes. he's a master. him and maurice lamarche (does the voice of alot of characters on futurama...kif is one). dave herman is great too, he does the voices of a lot of one-time minor characters (like mayor poopenmeyer), he's so good, you can never even tell when it's him. he played michael bolton on office space.

i'm such a nerd for futurama. i've watched the commentary on every single episode. it got kind of ridiculous, but i did it. now, however, i'm watching the commentaries on every other TV DVD set i own. the ones for season one of home movies are great. jon benjamin is hilarious.

anyway more futurama, hooray!

[Kid Presentable]

Not to be predictable or anything, but

*eats chicken off head*

[Planetary]

it's not going to suck. it's been written for ages.

*takes deep breath* booooooooooooooooyaaaaaaaaa!!

[Planetary]

exactly. need to add it to my delicious futuramam collection

[Otis Driftwood]

Forget the sucking aspect, I'll settle for 4-5 Zoidberg jokes per episode...(y)

[The Notorious LOL]

I have often wondered if the guy who does Zapf Branigans voice only got the job because Phil Hartman died.

Since when is Family Guy fucked up?

[Lyman Zerga]

since the beginning!

[Bob]

I have often wondered if the guy who does Zapf Branigans voice only got the job because Phil Hartman died.

yes and no. they originally wanted phil hartman to do the voice, but he died, so billy west did it instead (who does the voice of lots of other characters on the show).

[Planetary]

i tihnk he does fry too. billy west used to do ren and stimpy. if you listen to fry and compare him to stimpy the voice is there for sure. zaps voice is spot on and no disrespect to hartman cause he was great at troy mclure and the lionel hutz but i don't think he'd do it any better.

[Bob]

billy west does loads of voices on futurama, and he's got a pretty impressive voice acting resume overall. he's like the new mel blanc. in fact he actually does bugs bunny. and popeye. and all sorts of other stuff. and he's a musician, and a generally funny guy and we're going to get married some day

[Rock]

Oh come on...that show blows balls big time now. It was really funny the first year or two...but now its just garbage.

He also did a great Jackie the Jokeman.

Futurama was/is gay. Keep it off tv!

[Planetary]

please leave...fageleh...

[Lyman Zerga]

i like futurama but i dont love it
i hate family guy but i killed it

[g-mile7]

It will suck because people will compare it to the past episodes (which is not fair) plus the fact that its sudden cancelation gave it cult status....its like if they made a Donnie Darko 2 or Clerks 2....oh wait a sec....

[Deep_Sea_Rain]

I'd have to disagree. The first few episodes "back", the humor wasn't on par with the older episodes. But as time went on, the writers got the hang of it again, and now it's excellent as usual. (y)

your opinion was rendered invalid 1551 posts ago.

[Justin]

The show is gay, but i must say it is probably better than some of the other shit on tv nowadays.

[g-mile7]

I like it but some of the episodes people be hyping aint all that good, although the Cap'n Kirk rip off (Zack Barnagan or somethin along those lines) makes me giggle everytime he talks. And Bender is A-plus.

best link ever

[Bob]

what is it, i have no sound here

[cosmo105]

it's billy west saying how much he loves everyone that can hear that and he's playing music and reading from his autobiography about how fantastic he is and it's pretty much the best file ever, too bad bob.

Justin, fix your fucking sig, and never post shit like this again.

[kate]

my kitties are named bender and fry:cool: i want the next one to be named professor and i want to make him a little kitty lab coat to wear around all the time

[Sarky Devotchka]

I have a hard time watching that show because I hate katy segal's voice.

[kate]

leela would be a stupid name for a cat. we're leaving her out

[Bob]

my kitties are named bender and fry:cool: i want the next one to be named professor and i want to make him a little kitty lab coat to wear around all the time

oh man, that's adorable. you should name it zoidberg instead of professor, though.

[kate]

definitely thought about that. no one likes zoidberg though. we're thinking about renaming fry zoidberg actually.

[cosmo105]

more billy west goodness (http://interviews.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/07/05/1555200&from=rss)

The only funny part of that Family Guy movie was when Stewie asked his future self "Did they ever find a successful vehicle for Ellen Cleghorne?"
