Futurama May Return! And Who would play who in live-action film?

[sonofatpatcher2]

Wired magazine reported recently: "[Mike] Lazzo's trademark is bringing dead toons back to life. He got his big break when he created the cult hit Space Ghost Coast to Coast in 1994 by splicing new celebrity interviews into old animated footage. Last year, Futurama and Family Guy reruns did so well that it's likely both shows (which Fox killed in prime time) will produce new episodes."

[sonofatpatcher2]

That would be great, but if they made a feature length live-action film, who would play who?

I think Katey Sagal is the only one to play Leela! She is still a major babe and I'd like to see her in character...

-------Hey! Only Brad Pitt would be right for me!

[mrsmith]

As long as they drop Kirsten Gore from the writing staff.

Futurama got too PC at the end.

[cripplecreek]

Uh Dude.....Leela is a cartoon.

[sonofatpatcher2]

And you, dude,

are an anti-toonite!

[cripplecreek]

Bite my shiny metal ass.

[sonofatpatcher2]

I was never crazy about Kirsten Gore myself.

She made my claws crawl...

[ocr1]

Kristen Gore, is that who ruined Futurama, was a good show when it started.
Good to hear Family Guy is on the return.

[sonofatpatcher2]

It ain't as shiney

as my metal one!

[sonofatpatcher2]

I want Leslie Nielsen to play me!

The Leslie Nielsen from Forbidden Planet that is...

Gad! Leslie Nielsen from Forbidden Planet my ass!

[MamaTexan]

Anybody but Gilbert Godfrey!

MAN, that guys annoying.

[Republican Red]

I hate this show.

My husband loves this show

Must be a male/female thing like the Three Stooges.

[Sofa King]

Fox really screwed up with futurama. They pre-empted it so much that it was hard to get into the habit of watching it. I never say most of it until it came on CN.

[sonofatpatcher2]

No problem.

If they cast Gilbert Godfrey, we'll kill him off before the opening credits end.

[upchuck]

Is this the babe yer talking about?

I agree :)

[CyberCowboy777]

Live action?

They tried that with my all time favorite cartoon - The Tick - and it did not fair so well.

I would be happy just to see Futurama - the cartoon - back on the air.

[sonofatpatcher2]

You say, "I hate this show. My husband loves this show."

I cannot understand why...

[Behind Liberal Lines]

That episode where they killed Fry's dead was too much for me. I can't even watch the reruns that left such a bad taste in my mouth.

[SaveTheChief]

I love Futurama and am still waiting on the last DVD box set to complete my collection.

Billy West is a genius.

[Xenalyte]

I have a heart as big as the moon . . . as warm as bath water!

[Republican Red]

Yeah, go figure!

[sonofatpatcher2]

Katey Sagal!

WHOA MOMMA!

[pogo101]

My wife worked on that show. She's now working on its stylistic parent, The Simpsons. Hmmmmmmmmmm.

[CyberCowboy777]

"Destiny's powerful hand has made the bed of my future and it's up to me to lie in it. I am destined to be a superhero, to right wrongs and pound two-fisted justice into the hearts of evil-doers everywhere. You don't fight destiny, no sir! And you don't eat crackers in the bed of your future or you get all...scratchy."

[sonofatpatcher2]

"I can't even watch the reruns that left such a bad taste in my mouth."

Ya know, a case of beer or three will kill that bad taste...

[Xenalyte]

So he says to me, "You gotta do something smart, baby. Something BIG!"

He says, "You wanna be a super villain, right?"

And I go, "Yeah, baby, YEAH! YEAH! WHAT DO I GOTTA DO?"

He says, "You got bombs, blow up the Comet Club, it's packed with superheroes, you'll go down in SUPER VILLAIN HISTORY!"

And I go, "Yeah, baby, 'cause I'm the Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs at Midnight! Aaaaaa-hahahahaha!"

[sonofatpatcher2]

"My wife worked on that show. She's now working on its stylistic parent, The Simpsons."

Gad! You're married to Lisa?

[Charles Martel]

"Ladies... please! We need rest!!
The spirit is willing, but the flesh
is bruised and spongy!"

(That line made me squirt root beer through my nose when the episode first aired)

[CyberCowboy777]

Oh Yeah!

I love the Midnight Bomber What Bombs at Midnight!

I have the entire series on DVD and have introduced The Tick to my young boys.

[pogo101]

No, she was on the drawing end, not the voicing end. Too bad they pay involved in the former isn't closer to that of the latter ... !

[pogo101]

"DEATH BY SNOO-SNOO!"

[CyberCowboy777]

"You know..I've heard the smarter you are, the more wrinklely your brain. And you guys' brains must be the wrinkleliest! Oh sure, ordinary Joes like me and Arthur here, maybe our brains are a little on the smooth side. But you don't have to be a genius to know that evil is bad!...And..Good isn't!"

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

For the life of me I never could understand exactly what the hell was Al Bundy's problem. Sometimes, I'd have sworn he was gay.

[sonofatpatcher2]

"Too bad the pay involved in the former isn't closer to that of the latter ... !"

So that's why you are so cheap?

[SaveTheChief]

Ya know, a case of beer or three will kill that bad taste...

How about a Benderbrau? Olde Fortran?

[sonofatpatcher2]

Take it from me...

Al Bundy was a smuck. That's why I shot him.

[longtermmemmory]

(S)Wilma or Betty?

Jeanie or Bewitched?

Ginger or Marryann?

Laura or Tuhreeeehzaaaah?(/s)

[Xenalyte]

Ed O'Neill explained it in a recent interview, that his imperviousness to Peggy's charm is part of the joke. He said that the ONLY reason Al didn't find her hot is that he'd been married to her for so long.

[tophat9000]

That one think on “Married with Children”…. What the hell was Al problem….Peg “The Big Red” machine was quite………!!! …she shouldn’t even have to ask

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

I knew it wasn't just me.

Even though I am partial to redheads....

[longtermmemmory]

the nose knows.

[longtermmemmory]

I concur on all counts.

[sonofatpatcher2]

Easy!

Wilma, Jeanie, Maryann, Laura... And while we are at it,

throw in Rachael from Blade Runner!

[rwfromkansas]

Family Guy is hilarious.

I must say though, I never got Futurama. I borrowed a DVD set from a friend and I didn't even finish the first one. I just stopped watching it in the middle of the program.

Quite frankly, it is the most dull, boring "comedy" I have ever seen. I don't understand it...it is just snoozeville.

On the other hand, Family Guy is one of my favorite shows. It is the only program I own all the DVD sets of.

I can't wait to see that on Fox.

[rwfromkansas]

Oh you did not just diss Al Bundy.

Boo.

[sonofatpatcher2]

Damn Sam!

Your Mrs. Roberts is a major babe, too!

[sonofatpatcher2]

Well sports fans, Leela and I are going out for a little light target practice

so... Later

[longtermmemmory]

I think I caught the last family guy ever shown, It had a crack about Bush taking a girlfriend for an abortion, I changed the channel and never cared to see more.

[ABG(anybody but Gore)]

Betty
Samantha from Bewitched
Marryann
Laura

Great to know that "Family Guy" is going to be making a comeback. Next to "South Park" it was one of the most cutting shows on TV.
