Can't get enough Futurama
In Color

Billy West Q&A on slashdot.org

Futurama Voice actor Billy West sat down to answer 10 questions from the slashdot crowd. Among those:
Q: We've heard a lot about the original voice actors who are returning to Futurama. [...] However, what about the other staff? Are the writers of the Fox episodes returning [...]? [...]
Billy: Outside of the voices, I don't know if ALL the writers and artists are on board, but I'm guessing most of them are.

Head over to slashdot and read the rest.

DrZizzle, you're joking, right? I just hope the new episodes are funny and witty like almost all of the other episodes. I finally have a reason to watch tv again, in 2008.
MattJul 6th 2006, 03:01
DrZizzle, stop being a retard. if they get rid of Dr. Zoidberg and make all the aliens into something more realistic, then that would make the show boring and pointless of being a cartoon. i just hope they make episodes (besides those episode versions of the movies) for us to watch.
KimberlyJul 6th 2006, 04:26
I think DrZizzle is Fox's target market and probably laps up every "reality" show tripe that Fox can dream up.
inConGurJul 6th 2006, 05:08
ZoidBerg! HORRAY!
KimberlyJul 6th 2006, 05:12
What is it about Futurama sites that attract the trolls, anyway? It's not as though we Futurama fans visit Simpsons or Family Guy sites and start posting "Simpsons Suck!" (or "Family Guy Sucks") drivel all over those sites. What's the deal here?
paulJul 6th 2006, 05:13
Futurama is a the greatest, it's the only show thats something differnent example the simpsons , family guy , american dad and king of the hill are al the same. there all family members .....but futruama is a package company and it shows how they all meet!
bowlingforillidanJul 6th 2006, 05:41
DrZizzle, of course Futuram'as not believable.
The same goes for any animated comedy (simpsons and Family Guy are good e.g.'s), they exploit their freedom from the laws of science.
You can make a *very* long list of non-credible things about Futurama, starting with the fact that society in the year 3000 is a facsimile of the 1990's. But that's what makes it funny, you'll enjoy the show more if you suspend your disbelief.
t4k3nJul 6th 2006, 08:08
i'm damm stoked that they are makeing more episodes of the greatest catroon ever.. but it worries me to think that in doing so it will ruin its cult status and every man women and child will think they know everything about it and all that.. it has happend with Family Guy.. and the show is still great but the fact that everyone watches it makes it less interesting.. and I'm hopeing that the Hiatus won't have caused the writers to get "sloppy" and/or try to re-invent charactures... .. but who cares aye.. bring on the new season..
Data3Jul 6th 2006, 16:12
If I were to take a guess, I would say DrZizzle is joking, no doubt to get people to reply to him ;)
Look at his name, he would have to be a frequent watcher/fan to think up a name like that. Plus, his 'arguments' against the show are very obviously silly arguments, that dont make sense.
Touche DrZizzle, you got me to reply to your post also, and I appreciate your sense of humour in regards to Futurama. In fact, what you described would work as a "What if..." machine episode...
So again I say, touche!

In regards to Futurama coming back, I think I echo all fan sentiment on this matter, when I say...
ABOUT TIME! =)
Sk8PrOJul 6th 2006, 18:37
Aliens in this shows are the greatest ever, don,t change them.
NeoJul 6th 2006, 20:01
There's good stuff and ther's bad stuff in Futurama, but the good stuff usualy overwhelms the bad.

If I'd have to complain about something(which I do) in Futurama, it would probably be the bad character development, which is affected by the sometimes stupid humor... but I NO WAY about the parody of world they live in.

There's something you don't have to belive, such as Zoidberg's credibility, and thing YOU SHOULD, such as human emotions, sometimes it screws those up too(see the Fry-Leela plot), but usualy there cool... and "realistic".

I rest my case. :)
HubertFarnsworthJul 6th 2006, 21:03
Good news everyone, and by good I mean terrible. The new Futurama episodes won't be released after all. Oh Dear....
Sk8PrOJul 6th 2006, 22:16
#13 : It's sometimes good, but somrtime bad, but in anytime, it's better than any animation shows.
DrZizzleJul 6th 2006, 23:30
What the fuck? I did not write that. I haven't even been to this site in the past few days, and i come to find this? Whoever, did this is an asshole. Please, mods, don't delete this. I want to make it perfectly clear I love Futurama, and I have been a devoted fan since day one. I would never turn on it like this, and whoever did this is incredibly immature. I can't believe someone would actually think it was amusing to do this. I can't be sure who this is, but if it is elchupanebray or braptastic, please stop. This isn't funny, it is stupid. I love Futurama, and feel free the flame me in this topic section, but don't take my name in an attempt to make my reputation bad. I hope everyone understands that wasn't me, and I still love Futurama as much as the rest of you. I think this pathetic that anyone would do this. Hope this clears things up.
NeoJul 6th 2006, 23:56
#15 I hear that! And I totaly agree.
But that's no reason to say : Ah... we're the best! We don't need to get better!

I'm not saing that they did(maybe they did...) but that's no reason to slack off and satisfy yourself with just that. You always have to strive for more, better!

Here's to the new series and to good freinds!
DrZizzleJul 7th 2006, 00:06
Sorry, Brap. I'm just pissed that someone would do this. I didn't mean to be accusing, and I bet it was elchupanebray anyway, but I got carried away. Sorry, about that, I hope it doesn't happen again. It's my fault, and I won't make that mistake again :). Anyway, I also want to say to everyone, if there is ever a comment by me saying I hate Futurama or think Zoidberg couldn't happen, don't believe it. Zoidberg is my favorite character, and I would never say they should get rid of him. But thanks to Data3 for not bashing me when someone posted as me.

Also, I have an account on Peelified. If you really think I'm not a Futurama fan, check some of the posts i have made there. They are too geeky for someone who "doesn't" like futurama.
zoidbergJul 7th 2006, 00:09
Does anybody know the URL for the Billy West site? If so could you please poast it.
DrZizzleJul 7th 2006, 01:16
I have no idea. But you two are the only ones I have ever gotten into a fight with on the comments section of the site. And I don't see a reason why a random troll would decide to take my name and try to turn everyone against me for no good reason. I'm sorry I accused you, but at this point, if it isn't you, who the hell would do this and why? Whatever, sorry I blamed you, I'm just confused as hell.
Sk8PrOJul 7th 2006, 04:38
#23 : Are you joking ?

If no, you're an idiot.
If yes, you're an idiot.

Why can't we have a normal discussion ?
Data3Jul 7th 2006, 07:39
#20 - zoidberg

the url for Billy West's website is:



enjoy =)
Data3Jul 7th 2006, 08:33
well, since this forum doesnt like links, its:

replace dot with '.' :P
ZoidgarthJul 7th 2006, 13:34
#23 : are you some kind of ego maniac or something.
NeoJul 7th 2006, 13:42
"Normal" as in human-to-human, not shaved monkey-to-pork's ass discussion.

Anyway, if you'd like to know there are 543 days until the new series jumps in.

But there's no reason to belive that this silence will be kept until then. Remember I, for one am struggling to attract attention to the Futurama website. The Simpsons's great BTW.
fromChileSouthAmericaJul 7th 2006, 14:45
I hope more then 13 new episodes of Futurama and 4 movies direct to DVD. I want lots of new seasons and new histories...:)
Sk8PrOJul 7th 2006, 20:32
#28, nice to know that, but you are basing your countdown on which date of return ?
KimberlyJul 8th 2006, 03:28
#20 by zoidberg:

How to find Billy West's site:

1. Go to Google, Yahoo, etc., punch in "Billy West" and click the first hit
2. Go to the address/location bar of your browser, type in billywest, then a dubya-dubya-dubya before his name, then a com after it, with dots (periods) separating each part, and there ya go!

(wow that was tough ;))
PhilJul 8th 2006, 14:44
#31, Kimberly:

I don't know if it's even necessary to point out that you win the creativity award. Well done!
tomJul 8th 2006, 18:04
futurama is comeing out with new episode
NeoJul 9th 2006, 12:37
#30, well D-Day is 01 Jan 2008, so that's the (probably) exaact number of day until then.

Sure hell know what they might decide to do, if they'd like to be complete morons, they might air the old ones first for 2-4 months... then the new ones, so + 60-120 days. But I see no reason for them to do that. By 2007 we will probably get to see the '08 scheudule.ent here. Please stay on-topic.
Data3Jul 9th 2006, 16:51
This sites filtering out of my attempts at getting the web address in b4 made me sad :P

thx #31 for putting up instructions for them... was gonna do something similar, but lost interest when the server locked me out from posting for like 15mins :P
PhoebeJul 9th 2006, 20:17
Okay... I've never been to this site before. Haven't had interent in months... but am a fan of Futurama.

Is this no joke? Are there really going to be new episodes? I think I'd pee my pants in glee if someone were to tell me its true!

Oh... and all those other animation shows, Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad, and King of the Hill... I like all those too. :)
Sk8PrOJul 9th 2006, 23:00
#36 : Yes, it's really coming back, no jokes.

#34 : If they start presenting new episodes on january first, that would be awesome.
ZiodbergJul 10th 2006, 02:19
Kim and Data 3, wow i just asked for some help not an asshole. If you have a comment well i have it possible so that we dont get blocked from the site. i'll give you a hint^^^^^^^^^^^
I dont think that we should put the date so far away, because there is good shot every thing comes out earller than you think. This type of thing usally happens.
Marsman0013Jul 11th 2006, 01:03


New futurama news
crazyfrye000Jul 11th 2006, 11:21
The interview brought up an interesting point about piracy. Billy didn't come down to hard on it, but i would bet that futurama is definitely a show that got hit by file sharing in a pretty harsh way. Don't get me wrong, downloading something cause you missed the episode, or cause that is the ONLY episode you like is great and fine, but people who don't watch cable or don't buy dvd's and download the episodes are selling the rest of us short.
Shit, don't complain about money. You had the 1k to sink into that computer, you can handle 80 bucks for a couple dvd's to keep a great show on the air.
tomJul 12th 2006, 04:02
what station is futurama going to be on anyway. so i make sure i have it when it comes back on air. adult swim should get it because they are the ones who brought it back on t.v. and made people like it again its only fair.
Sk8PrOJul 12th 2006, 04:18
#44 : Comedy Central.
KimberlyJul 13th 2006, 02:24
Ziodberg,

I meant no offense. We can't post URLs here so I decided to try to help you in a humorous manner. I'm sorry it came across the wrong way. :(

However even if I intended malice, it's no cause for you to call me an asshole, lest you come across as one yourself. :)
KimberlyJul 20th 2006, 00:31
and. . .no apology from Ziodberg for his attempt to spark a flamewar. What the heck is it about this site that draws out the trolls? And what did I miss in here? Lots of posts deleted.
profJul 22nd 2006, 15:36
good news everyone............ i didnt say highly controversial..............For this highly controversial mission
redfuturamafanJul 24th 2006, 14:28
They said I probably shouldn't be a surgeon
They poo-pooed my electric frankfurter
They said I probably shouldn't fly with just one eye
I am bender please insert girder

I hope that put a smile on the faces of some of you who may be feeling down
JamesJul 30th 2006, 06:38
July 27, 2006, At Comic-Con 2006, Matt Groening was interviewed, stating simply that "Futurama Lives!" He also mentioned that at 2007's Comic-Con, he would bring clips of the new 2008 Comedy Central episodes. David X. Cohen was said to be writing the episode scripts as they spoke.
BrainSlugJul 31st 2006, 15:25
Anyone know where you can still buy the sqishy Brain Slugs or the HGB's ??? I can't find one anywhere.
MarsmanjAug 1st 2006, 00:05
Let the feast of a 1000 episodes begin! I'm actually more excited about the 4 DVD movies that are coming out than anything else. Those are gonna rock so hard.
darkdrag765Aug 5th 2006, 16:47
I know the movies will kick ass
XanforAug 8th 2006, 03:44
James's post was number 42. How fitting. Wonderful news, wonderful news, oh my yes indeed.

LugnutsAug 8th 2006, 23:09
I can't wait!
lugnutsAug 8th 2006, 23:53
Me being a big fan, my kids have grown up on futurama. They were younger then & didn't catch the adult humour. Now, they kind of get it but it's too late. Snoo Snoo... ..oh boy... By the time that the new ones come out, their age won't be as much of an issue. The adult humour is much more subtle than Family Guy which they do NOT watch.
bowlingforillidanAug 9th 2006, 12:13
Family Guy uses the sledgehammer approach to humour, Futurama the rapier. But I definitely wouldn't let under-14's watch Family Guy or Southpark...

fryAug 10th 2006, 03:29
when is stupid website going to be updated, its been a while
KimberlyAug 10th 2006, 06:51
I don't know, when are you going to update your web site, #50?

However, I've been wondering when the FAQ on this site is going to be updated. Now, I wouldn't go so far as to call the friendly hosts and admins of this site "stupid" like you did, or accuse them of being lazy, as I'm sure that maintaining a hobby site is a very low priority for them.

To the admins: Hey guys, thank you for keeping this site up long after Futurama's cancellation and helping to keep interest in the show alive! :)
carlAug 11th 2006, 08:50
Ok, I figured this would be posted a few days ago, but here it is for anyone who hasn't seen it yet... GREAT news:
carlAug 11th 2006, 09:06
oh crap, they don't take URL links...

aint-it-cool-news *** display.cgi?id=24076

after "news" you have to add a dot com and a forward slash, with "display" following the slash.
marsmanjAug 11th 2006, 23:19
I heard that artical was a hoax, or in the lesser sense, a very misinformed fan coupled with wishful thinking. I'll keep waiting until I hear something official from the actual writers of the show.
KimberlyAug 12th 2006, 00:53
I started reading then stopped partway though. If true, it's full of spoilers. I want to know NOTHING about the plot if it is actually going into production. :)
JerkchickenAug 12th 2006, 09:07
Yeah!!! I don't want spoilers, give me all the new stuff fresh!!!
ZoidgarthAug 15th 2006, 12:11
Spoilers are bad!
remember what it was like when you first watched futurama, each episode was unknown (unless you looked at a T.V guide or something) It was GREAT!
I want that feeling of "what's going to happen?" again.
EZ-52Aug 17th 2006, 21:21
Futurama UK Fansite reports that Fatboy slim has made a remix of the futurama theme song to be used in the new series, does anyone know if this is true?
ShaunCAug 19th 2006, 18:07
Great News!!
MunKyAug 21st 2006, 02:57
Ratamahata, prizes for guessing the reference. I cant wait for the new Futurama eps and movies! Get me another beer!
1sttimeposterAug 23rd 2006, 01:44
what depresses me is that the new eps probably wont be shown on normal tv in Australia until 2010 or (god forbid) 2012!!!!
heatherAug 23rd 2006, 22:44
Bring back Futurama please!!!
heatherAug 23rd 2006, 22:44
Bring back Futurama please!!!
andresvillAug 24th 2006, 04:33
Come on! we want more news! I know the guys must be busy working on the simpsons movie... but we want some more futurama news!
KimberlyAug 25th 2006, 04:39
re: [#64 by andresvill]

AGREED! And by "news" we do not mean "spoilers" :)
EricBakerAug 25th 2006, 19:27
Quick Stop Entertainment has a huge interview with Maurice LaMarche. The interview was done a few years ago, but they did a follow up section where Maurice talks about how excited he is for the return of Futurama and said they started doing voice recording in early August.
andresvillAug 26th 2006, 04:20
re: [#65 - Kimberly] yeah! that's what I meant. No spoilers. Just some "progress report" will do for my futurama fix news.

re: [#66] Thanks for the info about Maurice LaMarche. I'll check it out later. I'm glad to hear they are all excited to come back.
DrZizzleAug 29th 2006, 03:15
Umm Kimberely,

Regarding post #39, where I assume you are referring to me, let me say I wasn't trolling. The stuff that got deleted was someone using the handle I normally do and saying that, "I hated Futurama now." I was pissed, and I am sure you would be too. Now, I did step over my bounds accusing certain individuals, but I've gotten in some comment fights with those two before, and so, because I was angry someone tried to make me out to be a troll, I didn't think clearly and I accused them. Instead, it was probably just some asshole who never posts on here.

Again, I was not trying to start a flame war, I was just pissed that someone impersonated me and claimed I hated futurama, which led to people bashing me for something I didn't do. I hope that clears things up for you. And yes, I know I am probably very late with this explanation, I just wanted to make clear I am not a troll, I hate fucking trolls.
DrZizzleAug 29th 2006, 12:34
Whoops, just realized you were not talking to me when you were talking about a flame war. Wel, this, this is embarrassing. Well, I hope that explains the deleted posts. Sorry for the confusion.
ThatGuyAug 29th 2006, 16:31
DVD Review Magazine have the 4 films mentioned this month in there news section!
MattAug 30th 2006, 09:39

can we get a new topic to comment about? its been two months, something go to have happened.
lugnutsSep 6th 2006, 02:01
I can't believe that after hearing about Futurama's official return that this website isn't flooded with new stuff! Whats up?

wat? so they're back in business & nothing much is happening?
ZoidgarthSep 12th 2006, 15:30
Isn't there any news yet?

ZoidyPoosSep 12th 2006, 21:05
Maybe hes dead.
pineapplephoneSep 13th 2006, 12:58
i'm SURE you guys know this, but smaller snippets of news that don't really warrant an entire space on GF usually make it onto the PEEL thread,'13 new episodes..'. have a look there if you need to fufil your news cravings because it does look like marc may have in fact died. or at least had his hands chopped off so he can't type.
andresvillSep 14th 2006, 02:15
Thanks for the info pineapplephone. And may we all have a minute of silence for mArc. Maybe he turned 150 (and we all know where people that turn 150 are taken to)
AnonymousSep 15th 2006, 04:08
That's 160.
andresvillSep 15th 2006, 18:19
true... my mistake... anyways... does anybody know how bogus or real is the post of "Futurama: Bender's Big Score" on Imdb?
carlSep 16th 2006, 08:03
kind of bogus, somewhat real. does that help?
KimberlySep 17th 2006, 04:28
Who cares, as long as its in production and Cohen and Groening are at the helm? As long as they've got creative control, we're in for a treat. So long to wait, though. Too long.

Marc should go visit the Robot Devil then. He can work out a deal for a new set of hands!

News:Futurama: Bender's Big Score is the proposed name of the straight-to-DVD movie based on the animated series Futurama to be released in 2007. The movie is written by Ken Keeler and David X. Cohen, and is set to include the characters the Nibblonians, Seymour (Fry's dog), Barbados Slim (the limboer who always defeats Hermes), Morbo, Santa, the "God" space entity, Al Gore, and Zapp Brannigan.

idontknowOct 1st 2006, 19:42
perhaps since they slapped a gag order on Billy West and other people involved with the show, they did the same here. Not allowing this site to post any news or they will get sued
andresvilOct 2nd 2006, 00:37
#104: well... if that is the case... mArc could've at least said "sorry for no updates... but I can't post any news until I am allowed to"

I can't wait until the first new episode is released.
sheit-freightOct 5th 2006, 08:47
I want to see the hedonism-bot on his very on straight(?)-to-dvd movie. That jerk is one of the best characters in the Futurama universe, me thinks.
ZoidgarthOct 5th 2006, 15:12
look on futurama-madhouse its got some cool stuff on it.
ZoidgarthOct 6th 2006, 15:45
Apparently there's a new Futurama episode being made called "Bender's Big Score"!!!
if this is true then
huzzar!!! horrraayyyy!! Whooooo!!! Yeayay!!!!!!

FuturamaFanForFunOct 6th 2006, 21:37
congratulations on all the new news updates we've got since late spring,....let me count hummmm,... almost done.... wow good thing i had a calculator... for a big fat ZERO.

no news is not good news, your telling me nothing has happened in five months... wow is anything on this site new?
KimberlyOct 7th 2006, 06:14
#109, if you can get in touch with any of the cast or crew of Futurama and get a scoop, I'm sure that Marc would appreciate any legitimate submission you can provide. I think I can safely state on everyone's behalf that we are all anxious to hear more (aside from spoilers).

dear readers
I am but a humble tv viewer, overwhelmed by the constant junk it has crammed down my throat ever since Futurama became cancelled(and where i live my tv doesn't get comedy central or cartoon network....just comedy network and teletoon...and i don't even get teletoon!)The executives at Fox are retards for cancelling Futurama anyways,i mean it's alot smarter than family guy or american dad and the Futurama crew doen't bleed a gag dry like family guy or amrican dad and the animation is better and voice acting,the writers them selves are geniuses.Also the fact that it's 1000 years in the future makes aliens,robots,spaceships all plauseable and the situations they're put in realistic(a mother hating baby,an alcoholic dog,a perverted fish,a gay alien and an evil monkey could exist in the future but not now seth).Now that the show is back Hazaa's are in order..HAZAAA!,because like posted above my comerades it gives us a reason to watch tv all over again.
Humble viewer of Futurama,
Ferd

KimberlyOct 10th 2006, 01:33
Regarding fan fiction: ask the authors

Regarding air date: the latest news we have is 4Q 2007 or 1Q 2008
enoOct 15th 2006, 04:11
Awesome news eh folks? 2008 is the year ;)

By the way, this is the real eno and not one of the fake enoes who claims to be me.

Hi all. Long time fan, first time poster. I stumbled across this trailer the other day promoting Futurama's return on Comedy Central. Hadn't seen it mention so thought I'd share. Enjoy!

I have seen that video but its not an official promo from comedycentral to bad cause its good, proofs at the end of the vide "please don't sue us, hire us its cheaper"
EmpireOct 18th 2006, 11:47
Futurama is the Coolest Show Ever... I can't believe its coming back...

I hope the character personalities don't change...

And don't forget to Bring on the Aliens....
MattOct 19th 2006, 09:08
agreed, i also hope they dont change the music that introduces a new scene at a place (family guy did that).
AaronOct 22nd 2006, 08:39
Hooray! I can not wait to throw my various forms of money at anything Futarama related in the not too distant future! Here's to hoping that the new episodes maintain the quality found within the amazing first four seasons.

Mostly, I'm looking forward to more hilarious commentary tracks on the season five dvd collection.
zoidbergOct 24th 2006, 04:49
Enter your comment here. some new new please
zoidbergOct 24th 2006, 05:07
Kim: I know it has been since July since you last insult to me. And also my last poast, until earlyer. From like 39, i think it is. The reason i didnt repley until know is b/c i have a life out side this site. I have better things to do than waste them bitchin with you. it seems you have gone here every day since, congrats! I hope that is working out well for you and your life, witch seems to be the internet. Isnt that cute.
ftr: i called you an asshole why maybe you should read you last poast before my frist when this all started. And if you are gonna be stupit and poast comments, waiting for me again, just know i am not coming back in to this section of the site again. I also problley wont be back for another 2 months at this site because, every 4,5,6 months or so is when they like to give a pile of news that could have been seprateted and not let us down so much..........
andresvillOct 24th 2006, 22:09
#123: I'm glad you have a "life" outside this site... but it sucks that "little" time you spend on the internet you use it to insult people.

#1-122: anybody know anymore news?
that80sguyOct 24th 2006, 22:43
wow somebody dident get the point of zoidbergs poast, but hes rigth new, news would be alwsome. anything like its somebodys b-day or some shit like that.
pineapplephoneOct 25th 2006, 14:45
monkey nut.
kimberlyOct 26th 2006, 01:57
zoidberg, you may want to read this:

ht tp : // en.wikipedia. org /wiki/Internet_troll

Then, look in the mirror.

I happen to check this site every 3-4 days to see if there is any Futurama news. Why do you come here, aside from trolling to insult people?
that80sguyOct 26th 2006, 03:37
heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy that link dosent work. also i belive you ARNT SUPPOSE TO FUCKING SPAM HERE. if i am worng then sorry in advance.
DrJerkbergOct 26th 2006, 22:00
That's it. I'm not coming back to this site anymore. There are plenty of Futurama sites that are in fact updated once in a while. Off I go, apparantly.

PS. "Zoidberg", you have issues. Put a sock in it ya bastard.
benderfryOct 27th 2006, 00:46

benderfryNov 9th 2006, 01:36
when i look at stores and online mostly but i di see a bender magic book at borders very good 4 futurama it mainly makes fun of bender which sucks but i don't think anything will come out for awill since alot new is coming out so 1 last thing just because it's officail that futurama is back still watch it and don't change the channel bad ratings and if your obsesed with futurama keep changing channels on simpsons it'll be good when the show is off and they focus on futurama more (opptional)
KimberlyNov 9th 2006, 03:34
re:

Not much. Futurama is in production, the cast is reputedly ecstatic to be working together again, and we'll start seeing the new episodes at the end of 2007 or the beginning of 2008. That's about it, until Billy West gets drunk and spills the beans again or is allowed to disseminate more info.
that80sguyNov 9th 2006, 06:46
wow, kim way to think of one of our heros as a drunk.
benderfryNov 9th 2006, 12:56
2things one kim what's kim 2 a i don't know im drunk to:)
andresvillNov 9th 2006, 17:46
So it's our duty as futurama fans to get Billy drunk! :)
benderfryNov 9th 2006, 22:42
i concer to ....were ever matt and billy live (and whoever the hell works there to):):):):)
AaronNov 10th 2006, 01:48
Is Rough Draft Studios still in charge of 3D for the new season? Anyone know?
that80sguyNov 10th 2006, 04:29
tuff to tell. news around her is harded to get around here than fdr walking. jk! nr!
KimberlyNov 11th 2006, 09:16
that80sguy>

Billy admitted to leaking news way prematurely after he had a little too much to drink one night. I'd assume that by "a little too much to drink" meant he was drunk, by his own admission.

I'm not saying he's a chronic alcoholic, but that he admitted leaking news while inebriated. Interpret however you like, there was NO implication above that he has a drinking problem.

*shrug*
that80sguyNov 11th 2006, 18:00
i was joking around. i read the same articale u did.....*shy* it was sooooooooooooooo long ago.
DaMasonataNov 12th 2006, 09:36

benderfryNov 12th 2006, 14:17

ZoidgarthNov 14th 2006, 11:46

that80sguyNov 14th 2006, 19:31

benderfryNov 14th 2006, 22:42

JuddjustafanNov 18th 2006, 06:02
Speaking of voice overs, is Rick Emerson (Not quite sure of the episode, which might be of no help to anybody, especially me) the same radio talk show host of Portland OR.? I remember the name being dropped during the commentary of an episode which I has since forgotten the actual one. Can anyone help me? I do know, in the the person says that the voice was their good friend Rick Emerson, of whom I am a fan of.
JuddjustafanNov 18th 2006, 06:53
Ohmpht, sorry about the spelling on that last post.
ZoidgarthNov 18th 2006, 15:04
I wonder if they'll be any updates before 2007?
that80sguyNov 18th 2006, 23:13
we gota better chance at 09.
could they at least say they still work here. hey maybe they hired meicans and they havent learnd how to poast stuff. well guys its easy. over 2 trillon sites r avlabe and if some 40 year old virgin in his moms basement can do it so can u. or even family guy fans look at them they have furoms. so i know u can do it. good luck! power to the beaner!!!

andresvillNov 19th 2006, 18:56
170: Hey! I find that offensive... I am mexican... (just kidding... I AM mexican.. but I don't find it offensive)

Plus... Bender is made in Mexico...
DudeNov 19th 2006, 23:38

I thought it was 2007. BuuHuu. How can i go on.

TheHolyFonzNov 20th 2006, 01:43

pineapplephoneNov 20th 2006, 02:52
no, nobody knows nuffin'.
KimberlyNov 20th 2006, 04:14
I think Marc froze himself, with the intention of thawing just in time for Futurama to air.
TheHolyFonzNov 20th 2006, 06:58
why isnt there more info on recent events?
FatGuyStranglerNov 20th 2006, 10:02
Something has happened.

that80sguyNov 20th 2006, 20:55

FryJApocalosoNov 20th 2006, 23:56

andresvillNov 21st 2006, 05:00
Apart of reading new futurama news... I guess we all want to hear from the editors of this site... a simple "we are still alive, but we have no news to report" will do... hope everything is fine...
ZoidgarthNov 21st 2006, 13:12
the news is that one of the futurama movies is called "Benders big Score"
benderfryNov 21st 2006, 22:11

JamesNov 24th 2006, 07:43
Now now...I like futurama as much as the next person...but there's no reason to insult people. Especially with incorrect spelling and homophobic remarks. Anywho...They haven't been updating much lately, and I dont' know if someone already said this, but IMDB lists Futurama: Bender's Big Score as being in post production...
ShizNov 25th 2006, 00:26
I just got the Xbox Futurama game. It is like a whole extra episode. All it needs is a Leela nude cheat code.

Why are there security words now? And I'm with you Edh. I hate morons. However, did someone delete some of the old posts?
[-mArc-]Nov 26th 2006, 19:21
The security words are here to get rid of spam-bots spoiling the user submitted content. And yes, I deleted some old posts. Please use the message board or the chatroom if you want to talk about things other than the news entry. We'll try to bring new content/info, but are busy for a while now (besides no real new info being out).
MarcNov 26th 2006, 21:45
Erm... guys ... I can't find Futurama 2007 on the IMDB! Not even on the movie links of Futurama 1999 ...!!!

Great to hear from -mArc-. That's fine all we wanted to hear was that the site is still alive.
MarcNov 26th 2006, 23:05
