Futrama news from Comic Con today

[pokerfan]

The panel started with Hypno Toad telling us that there was no problem at Futurama and everyone should ignore the fact that there were no actors on the panel. Matt Groening came out and started with a serenity prayer type thing that included loving thoughts to both the Futurama actors and Fox execs. The basic point of the whole panel was that the writers and producers didn’t have any problem with the actors and hoped they would be part of the show soon.

1. If no Katey Sagal then I'm not interested

I dont want a new voice for Fry either. Or Bender. Or the Professor. Or Hermes! Or Nibbler! Or Zap! Or Morbo!

2. Doesn't give one too much hope

of the cast coming back. I will not be the same. I have serious doubts they will be able to pull it off without them. :(

3. Has a series ever replaced its entire cast?

We've seen major characters replaced before (Darrin in Bewitched, first season Homer on the Simpsons, etc.) and minor characters replaced (Morty on Seinfeld, Laurie on That 70's Show). But has an entire cast ever been replaced?

This may or may not suck but it will definitely not be Futurama. If the network and the voice actors can't reach a agreement (and I don't know who's at fault here) then everyone involved should just move onto some other project.

4. I simply won't watch it without the original cast.

Absolutely not.
