'Futurama' Rises from the Dead

Comedy Central has placed an order for 26 new episodes of the animated series 'Futurama', and Matt Groening's production crew is getting right to work.  Being a titanic-sized nerd, I jumped three times in the air at the news.  During its original run from 1999 to 2003, the series was superior to Groening's classic 'The Simpsons', which was suffering a lengthy dip in quality that it's only recently come out of.  It seems the entire 'Futurama' cast has agreed to return to the incredibly imaginative series, and new episodes should begin airing mid-2010.
