Futurama News

War Really is the H Word! UPDATED!!!

Hypnotoad that is!
This piece of news is worth progressing past Twitter status to front page CGEF fame!
It seems troops over seas(it's not clear where) have created a mural to worship the mighty Hypnotoad!
Big props to the guys for creating this!
Of course CGEF wishes all troops a safe return home as soon as possible.

As for new Futurama, VP Al Gore was in the studio lending his vocals to the holiday episode yesterday while today saw the first screening of a full colour season 6 episode! Reactions ranged from 'great!' to 'AMAAAAZING'!

Finally it's been announced that the next Toynami series(9) will be Wooden Bender and URL with the first parts of Morbo as 'Build a Figure'(Info courtesy of our friends at slurmed.com)

UPDATE:
It was also confirmed via twitter that the new episodes will be Widescreen and HD!!

"No Room For Bender Huh?!"

Well yes, of course there'll be plenty of room for him but he will have to give up some screen time for some guest stars...
Just a quick update on some stars that will be appearing in the new episodes:

First up is Chat Show host Craig Ferguson who was mentioned a while ago.

Second is Katee Sackhoff aka Starbuck from Battlestar Galactica and currently on Fox's 24. She was in the studio this week lending her voice.

Finally, as many expected, Vice Presidential Action Ranger and inventor of Global warming(couldn't resist!), Al Gore will be in the recording studio next week.
I'm sure there will be many more to come!

The Countdown Begins!

OK people, here it is!
CLEAR. YOUR. DIARY!

Thursday June 24th 2010 at 10pm!

That's when your favourite group of 31st century misfits is hitting the airwaves of Comedy Central with all NEW episodes!!

Of course we'll be building up to it more nearer the time but for now you can look forward to spending every Thursday for 12 weeks from that date tuned into Comedy Central.

Also, there are rumours that night might kick off with a DOUBLE BILL!

I think it shows how committed Comedy Central are to the show by the timeslot they've given it(Thursdays is a regular premiere night for new shows such as Important Things and friend of Futurama, Sarah Silverman).

Show your excitement and thanks to Comedy Central in the comments.

Also, on another note, David Bernath, who was instrumental in bringing Futurama back was today promoted to Executive VP at Comedy Central. Congrats from CGEF Dave!

More toys!

After posting the news of the latest series of Toynami figures I was reminded of another line of great Futurama figures which I keep meaning to mention on the site. I will get round to doing a review very soon but up until then you should really check these bad boys out. Standing about half the size of the Toynami ones and with their own Kidrobot style they're a great addition to a Futurama fan's collection.
Unfortunately due the 'random choice' boxes where you don't know what you'll get inside, it's very hard to get them all.
A great place to go is eBay where the very rare Robot Devil is currently up for auction.
In the USA you can get them anywhere from the Kidrobot site to Urban Outfitters to Amazon.
However in the UK I've found a great site called dinky box where you can get them AND know who you're getting instead of a random choice.
Happy collecting!

Kittens give Morbo gass...

This week in New York the Toy Industry Association is putting on it's annual Toy Fair.
Among many of the pretty sweet new toys on show were 3 new ones from the guys at Toynami, makers of 8 previous series of Futurama figures. Two of them, which are due summer this year, will make up series 9 and consist of Wooden Bender from the episode 'Obsoletely Fabulous' and our favourite smooth talking Peace Officer, URL.
Also on show was a fantastic Morbo figure but it is not yet known when he will appear and in what figure series(could he be another build your own figure like Roberto?).

Figures.com has extensive pictures of the figures and all of the other new releases at the Fair so go check 'em out!!

A Futurama Theme Park Ride?!!

Apparently this was a ride that was considered at some point. I'm not sure how far it got in planning but it sounds very sweet!!

Check out the article here and thanks to JR Parnell for bringing this to our attention.

A Mighty Haul for Bender!

As you will have read, the Futurama cast recently had the table read for their 100th episode.

Writer Mike Rowe(Bend Her) was on hand to take a little snap shot of the special script cover that was produced to mark the occasion. He's very kindly allowed us to show the picture here as a little teaser. Just click on the image to the right for a larger view!

It does show that the episode(production code 6acv12) is called "The Mutants are Revolting" although this title could always change before airdate.
