Holy Bender Bending Rodríguez!

Six years after getting axed by Fox, Futurama is being resurrected on Comedy Central.

A spokesperson for 20th Century Fox Television confirms that the cable net has ordered 26 new episodes of Matt Groening and David X. Cohen's late, great animated series to air beginning in 2010. The studio cites Futurama's "blockbuster" performance on DVD and in reruns on Comedy Central as the reason for its rebirth.

But, at least they're giving it a second chance.

I saw the first movie and that was up to par. I haven't seen the others, were they good?

I lost interested after the episode where they find Leela's other eye. It's brown and every bit as big as the one on her face.

Fox gets GREAT shows and then kills them. I don't understand the folks running that network.
