It’s now official. Futurama’s stint as a half-TV, half-movie, straight to DVD Frankenstein was enough to bring it back to life with a full season order by Comedy Central.
Let us now hold hands and say “Hooray!” in Zoidberg’s voice.
Now to figure out how this obscure alt-weekly cartoonist can get Matt Groening and his head writer to know I exist.

Hopefully the half-hour episodes will be better than the DTVs. Futurama didn’t work well in feature-length, IMO.

I half agree with you Charles. Bender’s Big Score, and The Beast with a Billion Backs are solid as movies. The other two definitely suffered from being stretched out to feature length.
