Is this official? I've been checking the news wire at scifi.com and heard nothing yet. Maybe there are better places to look.

Submitted this to slashdot... in the unlikely eventuality that they run the story it might help get some letters written :)

Well, I was right. they rejected the story. Worth a try, though.

Worth someone else trying again, too. Most things get rejected on the first pass, due to the inscrutable whims of the /. editors.

It'd also be wise to wait for a more official statement, preferrably an article with quotes from Matt G. and David Cohen stating how Fox is letting yet another good show slip by. That has way more pull and a rumor of guys at the animation studio looking for new work.

Yeah, but wild rumor is usually the sort of thing Slashdot goes for :)

Don't worry, it'll get posted. Rob Malda is a huge fan of the show. He ran the update that David Cohen posted here, named the last development version of slashcode "Bender", and used Zoidberg somewhere else on the site.

He'll help out.

First Family Guy, now Futurama? X-files too, but that's due. (Ok, overdue.) So why the fudge aren't the Simpsons and KOTH on the chopping block? Pretty damn soon FOX ain't gonna be worth watching.

Simpsons is still really good (this season is the best since 7), but KOTH is overdue for a cancellation.

Says you... some of us here like KotH... well, at least I do.

Anyway, enough of saying this program should be cancelled and that one should be too, because right now we should be realising, if this *rumour* is true, the pain such things do to fans. Vent your anger on Fox.

Same here, brother. King of the Hill is a damned good show. I enjoyed Futurama too, on the rare occasions when it wasn't "The Pre-Empted by Football Show." Whatever happened to the sliding schedule?

Vent it hard! Funny thing...last night I dreamed I was Gandalf and Rupert Murdoch was the Balrog. I don't recall if he had wings or not, but I was kicking ass.
