I'd heard this rumor other places, this is just the first article I happened to google up...4 full length to DVD movies and possibly some episodes as well!  :-D  "Crosses fingers" 

Goddamn, I hated that show.

You hate everything.

I'm not sure they should 'ressurrect' this one.  They ended it fairly nicely, and it kept it's quality because it was so short.  It was a show that would start approaching a "Simpsons" level of repeating itself far sooner than Simpsons did.

They should repeat the Birdbot of Ice-catraz episode every week.

Futurama was/is far more deserving of a ressurection than Family Guy.  Yes, the baby who talks like a Bond-villain is funny.  But he's only one character.  And the endless throwaway references to 80's pop culture just strike me as shameless fishing for cheap laughs from the target demographic.  OMG LOOK ITS SOUNDWAVE ON FAMILY GUY!  ROFLZ!!1!

I also heard the rumour on some other sites (yes, I do go to other sites now and then) and I love Futurama.  I like Family Guy too, but if I had to choose between them, I'd definitely go for Futurama.

Futurama was great and like most fox shows, cancelled before its time. Why they feel the need to do movies though is beyond me, because like Family Guy it just doesn't translate well into an hour+ long format.

Cancel the Simpsons and replace it with Futurama.

No!  I like the Simpsons.  Don't cancel anything!  Well, maybe all those strange new shows where people get to do weird things like dance and skate with minor, for the most part has been, celebs.  It's a creepy trend.

You take jibes and japes too personally, too.

I have taken to watching futurama while playing Eve lately.  I think I have watched pretty much the entire series in the past month.  It is now my favorite show to ever grace the television.  I'm really looking forward to these movies and I'm hoping we get at least one more season out of the deal.  And Zoidberg rules!

Zoidberg: I'll have a look but I warn you, I'm an expert on humans, not robuhts.
Fry: Er, I'm not Bender, I'm Fry.
Zoidberg: Really? I thought you were the robuht.
Fry: Nope, human.
Zoidberg: Alright, alright, spare me your life story!

You're lucky to have Zoidberg as a friend, but cross me and I'll turn on you like THAT!

On topic: There's a code black on Grey's Anatomy tonight. That's quality entertainment. Futurama wasn't.  :-D

You talk weird.  Oh, and Grey's Anatomy is average entertainment.  I know this because I don't even have to be very tired to fall asleep during it.

Wow an emergency on a medical show - how novel! Who would have thunk it?

Futurama was very uneven but the good espisodes were quite good. Robot Devil rules.

There was an undetonated bazooka round lodged in this guys gut that was home made by a couple of WWII reenactors.

That's a little different than a heart attack or nail in the skull.

You don't watch ER much do you?

I didn't watch it at all. Hated it. I refuse to believe it had a homemade bazooka shell made by a larper though.

Fry:  So... you guys don't believe in Robot Jesus?
Robot Jew:  We believe he existed, and that he was an exceptionally well programmed robot, but he wasn't our messiah.

Fry: "This place is just like the ancient Egypt of my days!"
Curator: "That is no coincidence. For our people visited your Egypt thousands of years ago."
Fry: "I knew it! Insane theories: One! Regular theories a billion."
Curator: "We learned many thing from the mighty Egypts. Such as pyramid building. Space travel."

And, sadly, I can't find the exact quote for my favorite-

Prof. Farnsworth:  "I've finally completed my What If Machine!  It can now take any given scenario and describe its outcome to within 0.01 of a probability unit!"
Leela: "That's so probable I can't believe it!"

Not to mention my undying appreciation for the show's insane continuity.  No one from the future ever says "ask".  They always say "ax".  Always.  Mice were eventually overtaken as the household pest by owls.  Etc. Etc. Etc.

Adult Swim announced that Billy West and the rest of the cast is going back in studio to make, and I quote here, "Four direct to DVD movies".
 

Thats Grey's Anatomy show was wretched.  Almost as wretched as my Seahawks performance was.   And the damn commercial made it look so nifty!

Grey's Anatomy isn't remotely episodic. If you haven't seen _every_single_episode the show isn't even remotely gripping.

(to throw back to the ER comment - that show was nearly entirely episodic, or maybe I just didn't care at all about the characters the couple times I saw it)

I didn't much like ER, either.  ER, LA Law, Boston Legal, Ally McBeal... although I've found some bits of some episodes that I saw to be fairly amusing... they're just a wee bit better than a quality soap opera.  I've started watching each of them and ended up losing interest after a while.  I have to say that I still try and tune into Boston Legal but mostly because I seem to have fallen in love with Captain Krik.  Righ doesn't seem to mind... he likes to watch

When Greys Anatomy came out I thought "a House clone?" and dismissed it. Did I miss something?

Talk about a stupid show. Any hospital without a gift shop is not reality. I bet E.R. has a gift shop.

It does.

Yeah, I really really hate that trend. I do not fucking get it. I don't want to see anyone ball room dancing, much less Master P or Jerry fucking Rice. Bring back Celebrity Boxing!

Funny story. In the UK, televised celebrity boxing matches were refused licenses by the board of boxing control because they thought that *celebrity* boxing would bring the sport into disrepute. Fricking hilarious.

Sadly the ball room dancing thing is alive and well, and my sincere apologies on behalf of the british nation go out to everyone for inflicting that crap on you all.

Not a House clone.  House is entertaining.  Grey's Anatomy, not so much.  It's more like a not-funny Scrubs clone.

The hospital GA takes place in has a gift shop. For that matter, so does Princeton Plainsborough, the hospital in House.

Funny, I think of it as a badly-done St. Elsewhere.

My crack about ER was meant to point out that stupid improbably emergencies are a dime a dozen on medical shows. Helicopter crashes into building, power goes out, earthquake strikes, tank rolls into lobby - just another week in the ER!

Maybe it doesn't happen much on Gray's Anatomy, but it happens every other week on ER.

It's Princeton-Plainsboro.  I know this because I'm living in it.   :-(
