It's official guys, Futurama will be back. And FOX is looking for new actors to replace EVERY major actor.

News here

If it's true... which Variety says it is.

I will boycott fox.

OMG I can't believe this, one of my favorite shows, actually returning !
Though this change in the voices bugs me a bit.

Because it's cheaper.

What's the point if the characters sound different? Who wants to hear a different Zoidberg or Fry or Lela? No one, that's who. It's a shame, because I really enjoyed the recent movies.

WTF?

"We love the Futurama voice performers and absolutely wanted to use them, but unfortunately, we could not meet their salary demands. While replacing these talented actors will be difficult, the show must go on. We are confident that we will find terrific new performers to give voice to Matt [Groening] and David [X. Cohen]'s brilliantly subversive characters."

Fox is the biggest sh*tbag network.

I posted this in the other thread but i'll put it in here as well.

If the voice actors do not return, I wont return either.

Worthy to note, Fox is probably just trying to make them reduce what there asking (same thing happened with The Simpson a few years ago).

he's never coming back if they bring back a half assed futurama

Dr.Zoidberg · 07-19-2009, 05:30 AM

That really blows if the originals don't come back. The movies they did after the show was cancelled weren't so good but I was hoping once the series came back on, it would get better but I guess not.
