Ever since Family Guy was brought back from cancellation, fans of Futurama have help out hope for a similar revival, especially given the clear advantage in quality the latter has over the former, and while the four direct-to-DVD movies released over the last few years have been more than welcome, that weekly injection of awesome was sorely lacking. Well, lack no more!

Futurama has been renewed for 26 episodes to begin airing around a year from now, and all the voice actors are coming back (presumably along with the writers) to revive the animated show that mixed childish humour and deep and profound musings almost as well as Pixar does in their big screen adventures. I’ll be watching. You should too.
