Really long interview, this is a relevant excerpt with "some" info on the upcoming straight-to-dvd movies, which apparently still don't seem to be that certain... <sigh>

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BW: We're waiting to hear like what's going on with doing a show. I mean, it's been a strange atmosphere: are they doing a TV show or are they doing a movie? Nobody knows, and then it's this deal and that's off and then this other deal's on and then that's off...

JK: Because you've mentioned in the press in the past that you thought they were going to do a new TV show, but then you had to recant that because things changed.

BW: Yeah.

JK: I know we've blogged about that, because we're big Futurama fans here, and we have a lot of readers who are Futurama fans...

BW: Really?

JK: Yeah, a lot of us love the show.

BW: Wow.

JK: We've posted about every single little rumor that's come out, and we've always been hearing things like "This is going to be a TV movie" or "This is going to be a series".

BW: Yeah, this has been going on for quite a while. And I don't know what's going on.

JK: So you haven't gone in and done episodes and the movie?

BW: Nothing yet. I get kind of misled; I totally misunderstood something, because I was told one thing, and... who knows?

JK: Who's that (the rumors) coming from?

BW: I have no idea.

JK: So that's not coming from Matt Groening or the production company or anything.

BW: I'm not sure of anything. It's not like... When somebody's dealing with you or negotiating, you don't know who it is for real.

JK: It's just going through your agent.

BW: Yeah. Let them handle the insanity on the other end.

Katey Sagal was on The Late Late Show last night and she said that they were doing either 13 or 16 new episodes to be shown on Comedy Central.

Hope this all comes to fruition.
