Futurama Canceled - Again...

Now I feel bad for never watching it when it was on comedy central. But then again I think that was around the same time I canceled my cable.

I honestly think the newer seasons were much better than the older episodes. If you have netflix, all the new seasons are on there if I'm remembering correctly.

They have that 1 time travel episode which is EPIC.

The episode where they are in a time machine that can only travel to the future? That is the best episode of Futurama ever.

i think this is a fun show even now

The problem is the network,

They dont play it consistently, might be on one week not the next,

Fans from then to now still like the show, Just seems the network didn't do their part well

Thats true. I never knew when a new episode would actually be on. It used to be on the same wednesdays as south park. But with the large gaps of time between seasons, I never knew when to actually watch it. Even when there were new episodes, the lack of airing them consistently made the newer seasons blend in with the constant reruns of the previous seasons. I've seen every episode of Futurama and with it being on netflix I had no desire to watch the constant repeats on their channel and it would result in me missing the new eps I'd actually want to watch. I wouldn't necessarily say the network purposefully set the series for fail, but you don't see Fox airing 3 reruns of simpsons on a wednesday night and then throwing a new ep into the mix every other week. Futurama could have succeeded better if they actually dedicated a time slot for it.

Even futureama's worst ep's are better then the cleveland show, and i would watch futureama over family guy / american dad any day,

Definitely. Futurama is far better than all three of those shows.

Family Guy and American Dad haven't been nearly that good in the past couple seasons. I'm surprised they keep getting renewed. But then again, Fox has tried adding new cartoons to their sunday lineup numerous times and failed in the ratings. Their latest one is Bob's Burgers. Honestly, I didn't care for it at first, but I prefer watching Bob's Burgers over Cleveland Show and Family Guy now.

I think Comedy Central has a large dice roller to determine what gets played when. And they roll it every Saturday so they can plan the next week's schedule.
