Good news, everyone?

Over the last week, several sources from within the animation business have indicated to us that there is renewed talk at FOX about bringing fresh Futurama content directly to DVD. We corroborated this with other sources close to the show before publishing the information.

The talk is of course still in a preliminary stage. Options reported to us include one or more Futurama movies in case of a go-ahead.

Even though Futurama is not sure to return and the likelihood of its return is currently unknown, this is the first time in the past few years that we have heard of Futurama being discussed at the upper levels of FOX. They'll likely have a good look at the sales of the upcoming Futurama Monster Robot Maniac Fun Collection.

As soon as we get more information on the Direct to DVD story, we'll let you know right here.

Please be true! :bounce:

I never tire of the Cartoon Network reruns, but NEW FUTURAMA? :woohoo: :woohoo:

I'm an utter addict. It's my favorite show EVER, and to add anything to the pantheon would be like mana from heaven. More than mana, actually, because you can only eat mana once!

Please please please

that was the first time I was really happy about the world in years.

So fleeting...

She says we won.

I just wish we got the "prize" too.

/sigh

direct-to-dvd = direct-to-bittorrent. I'd like to see 'em experiment with that as a legit distribution method. Futurama would be great vehicle for it.

I met Billy West at Wizardworld Comicon last year and he mantioned that it may come back and new episodes were already written but never created.
