Comedy Central Saves Futurama's Ass

If you're a Matt Groening fan, today is a banner day! Futurama is back, and the new episodes will be aired on Comedy Central. It's only fair, considering that continual reruns of Futurama have been aired on the network for years--virtually since the show's demise in 2003. Either way, the re-run phenomenon worked magic again, stirring interest and maintaining and developing a regular fan base. Like Famiily Guy, execs were able to find a viable interest in a cancelled show via late night cable junkies. The result? More Fry, Leela, and Bender--what's not to love?
