Futurama Renewed by Comedy Central
Good News Everyone! Or as Hermes might say, “Sweet gorilla of Manila!”

Futurama has been picked up and revived by Comedy Central for 26 new episodes! A rumor has been circulating the internet that Comedy Central was seeking to pickup Futurama for 13 episodes, but the news is even sweeter now that it’s 26.

Futurama originally aired on Fox for 4 seasons, until it was canceled back in 2003. Since then, for the past 6 years, fans of the show have been showing anger over the unjust cancellation. After all the years, Fox picked Futurama back up for 4 straight to DVD movies, which turned out to be huge successes.

As a die hard fan of Futurama, this news is nearly bringing a tear to my eye. Futurama is easily, in my opinion, the best computer animated TV show. If I happen to watch an episode of Family Guy or The Simpsons, I always wish it was Futurama.

20th Century Fox TV Chairmen Gary Newman and Dana Walden:

When we brought back Family Guy several years ago, everyone said that it was a once in a lifetime thing — that canceled series stay canceled and cannot be revived. But Futurama was another series that fans simply demanded we bring back, and we couldn’t have been happier when Matt (Matt Groening) and David (David X. Cohen) agreed that there were many more stories yet to tell.

We can expect the new Futurama episodes to begin airing sometime in mid-2010!

True Blood Season 2 Viral VideosHBO is taking True Blood and going viral. Here are 5 new viral videos being spread through the internet right now.

If you’re not into True Blood, or if you don’t even know what it is, it’s quite possibly one of the best shows on TV right now. It’s about vampires trying to “mainstream” and live normal lives with the rest of society. The Japanese created a synthetic blood, so now the vampires can drink that, and stop hunting humans. Obviously, it’s not as simple as that.

If you haven’t seen the first season of True Blood, go watch it now. It’s on Comcast On Demand, and it’s only 12 episodes. It’s definitely worth watching. Watch 5 True Blood viral videos for season 2 below!

True Blood Season 2Here are six new TV spots of the upcoming second season of True Blood, on HBO.

If you missed out on True Blood last year, I suggest you hurry up and watch it. You can watch the entire first season on Comcast On Demand, right now! The first season was only 12 episodes long, so with season 2 starting in a week, hopefully you could able to find around 12 hours of free time in a 7 day span.

This is easily one of my favorite shows right now. True Blood is almost like Twilight. Only it’s for adults, not tweenagers. There’s sex, blood, more sex, murder, vampires, more sex, shape shifters, rednecks, a little more sex, and even some funny gay guy comedy relief. Do yourself a favor, watch the first season now, and get ready for season 2!

True Blood Season 2 starts on June 14th! Watch the tv spots below. I know they’re not much, but they should give you a little relief until next Sunday.

Lost on ABCFor the fans of the show, don’t forget to watch Lost tonight! It’s the season finale, and it’s sad…

Even though it’s the finale, be happy that there are 3 hours of Lost tonight. An hour long flashback clip show followed by two back to back episodes, closing out Season 5. I can’t believe the season is over already; it seems like it just started With the final 2 episodes, what’s going to happen? It looks like they’ll be cramming a lot into these 2 hours. The actor that plays Ben Linus was recently quoted saying something like “Fans will wonder how the show can continue after the Season 5 Finale”. That’s not an exact quote, but it’s pretty much what he was saying.

Will Locke find and kill Jacob? Who is Jacob? Why does Richard Alpert never age? How are Christian Shepard and John Locke even alive? Will Sawyer and Juliette really leave the island? What’s going on with the survivors of the the Ajira Airways flight? Where are all the other survivors of the Oceanic Flight? Are Rose and Bernard dead? Will we have to wait until season 6 to find out where Claire is? There are so many more questions. Let’s watch tonight and see if they are answered.

The Lost Season 5 finale airs tonight, starting at 8PM EST, and ending at 11PM EST, on ABC.

Lost on ABCFor all the fans of the show, don’t forget to watch Lost tonight!

Tonight’s episode is titled, “Follow the Leader”, and is the 15th episode of season 5. “Jack and Kate are at odds over the direction to take to save their fellow island survivors, and Locke further solidifies his stance as leader of “The Others.”

After tonight, there are only two episodes left, and they’re both being aired next week, in a 2 hour season finale. It’s hard to believe this season is already over; it seems like it just started.

Watch 6 Clips from “Follow the Leader”, and don’t forget to watch the episode tonight, at 9PM EST, on ABC!

Heroes on NBCFor all the fans of the show, don’t forge to watch Heroes tonight!

This is the season finale! Depressing, but also exciting. The episode is titled, “An Invisible Thread”; watch three clips from the episode.

It looks like somebody might die in tonight’s episode. At least that’s what the preview leads to believe. If they kill off Nathan or Noah, it’ll be pretty sad. Then again, this is Heroes, so if a person dies, that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re dead for good. Noah has already died before, and Nathan was nearly killed when Peter exploded; both were healed with the blood of healers.

Heroes airs tonight at 9PM EST, on NBC!

Heroes on NBCNBC has released 3 clips from tomorrow night’s episode of Heroes. The episode is titled, “An Invisible Thread”, and is the Season 3 finale.

After last week’s episode, the preview was pretty interesting for this finale. It looks like a major character might die. In the preview, it showed Angela Petrelli yelling; yelling like a loved one was just killed. The preview also showed Sylar saying something like, “Claire is going to be mad at me.” I guess that means he kills Nathan or Noah.

That’s just speculation from me; I hope neither of them die.

Heroes airs tomorrow night at 9PM EST, on NBC. Watch the 3 clips below…
