“Futurama” Returns

Posted by Jennifer Stasak on 6/25/10 • Categorized as Television

In 2003, the television series “Futurama” was cancelled, much to the disappointment of fans and its creator, David X. Cohen. ”Futurama” re-runs then aired alongside “Family Guy” on the Adult Swim network. Eventually, “Family Guy” began to air full-length episodes on DVD, which caused Fox to bring the show back on the air. Cohen convinced the network to do the same with “Futurama,” and in 2007, four direct-to-DVD movies were released. Now thanks to those DVD sales, Comedy Central has picked up “Futurama” for a new season which debuted its first new episode last night, reports CNN.

The show picked up where the last movie left off and will continue its season with milestones which include celebrating the show’s 100th episode. Al Gore and Coolio will also be lending their voices once again in the new season of “Futurama.”

Fans of “Futurama” are tweeting their excitement at the show’s return:
