Yes is true. Matt Groening and David X. Cohen mentioned the news to a exclusive article from EW.com about Futurama once again cancelled because Comedy Central won't order more episodes for 2014 and beyond.


David X. Cohen:

"I felt like we were already in the bonus round on these last couple of seasons, so I can't say I was devastated by the news"

"It was what I had expected two years earlier. At this point I keep a suitcase by my office door so I can be cancelled at a moment's notice."

"As I said three times before, this is definitely the absolute end of the show. I don't know why nobody believes me when I say that."

Comedy Central's EVP of Programming Dave Bernath:

[..] views the network's decision as "the natural end" to the show's improbable comeback. "That's a helluva run that few shows achieve, and especially given the fact that it came back to life, it's really an amazing story"

WTF? "Improbable comeback", I think someone has not seen Futurama coming back 2 (or somehow 3) times from cancellation. The only improbable thing is Torgo's Executive Powder going out of business.

Matt Groening:

"There's a lot of death but there's also a lot of time travel, so that makes for an interesting combination. It's a really satisfying ending. It's an epic ending. If indeed it's the ending."

"We've been in this situation before and it's tempting when you're doing episodes that are as good or better than anything you've ever done to continue doing it [..] We're catching our breath and seeing what the fans have to say [..]"


Ok People, there's a lot we can do to keep the series strong this 2013 and beyond:
  1. Sign the "Save Futurama Again" petition, it is one of the things we did back in 2003 in the 1st cacellation.
     
  2. Watch the last 13 Futurama episodes on Comedy Central, this June 19, 2013 (tell everyone to watch the premiere of each episode, we don't know when we will see new ones)
     
  3. Buy the Blu-Ray, DVD and all the other official Futurama merchandise, there's a lot of great stuff and that way you support Futurama believe it or not.
     
  4. Keep watching the re-runs in cable, satellite and any air local station of your countries.
     
  5. Tweet about the #Futurama cancellation, use the hastags #FuturamaCancelled and #SaveFuturama
     
  6. Talk about it also on Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram and all the other (and future) mayor social networks.
     
  7. Don't you dare to stop creating Futurama fan stuff, all the love that we give to the series are a great part of Futurama, keep sending, keep posting. This site will never stop posting about Futurama, neither should you.
Any other ideas or thoughts? The human comments are meant for that.

Nudar speedpainting by KlungartOk. I'm back (yet again) around here. I've been around in the social networks, but I always need to come back and show you some ot the neat new Futurama stuff from new and known artists around here. This guy, creates amazing Futurama portraits of the characters with great quality, and he does that like he was wearing Lightspeed Briefs all the time hahaha. I'm talking about Klungart (Christoffer) and his neat Futurama speedpaintings. There are currently 8 images, featuring some of the main characters, like Fry, Leela, the Professor, Zoidberg, Kif and Nibbler and also some secondary ones like Morbo and Nudar. In case you're curious about how he creates his art, please visit his Klungart YouTube channel, and be ready because perhaps you can see more of him in the future.

I've added no less than 16 new images created by this great guy Immortal with many clean and neat images of Fry and the girls in the sauna, some episode situations.. Leela and Amy on nectar, Paparazzi Bender, Mecha hermes, Leela and Fry in bed and many more. There's also one new image by Cap'n Skusting featuring a parody of the Blue Öyster Cult album "Cultösaurus Erectus" as the "Blue Omicronian Club - Cultosaurus Zoidbergus".

Yancy and Audrey indoor camping by LadyBenderThe final artist of today is also a new one. She is from Italy, land of the Crocodylus Pontifex, and her name is LadyBender (Sara). I've added today 8 of her Futurama images, including 4 with some OC characters, Yancy and Audrey (Leela and Fry's kids) in a family photo, camping and playing with silhouettes, Yancy jealous of baby Audrey and Yancy waking up Mom and Dad. There's also one pic of Fry and Leela as elephant seals from the episode "Naturama", Fry and Leela kissing, The whole Crew spending Xmas in the hospital for the birth of Audrey and a wedding photo. Enjoy and have fun!
