Severing KOTH from Futurama is really going to hurt. Wish they'd air the remaining episodes this summer and just get it over with.

Haven't you heard? Matt Groening announced that five more episodes will be produced to bring season five to 21 episodes, and 21 more will be made for a sixth. Then that will be it.
I believe this will bring the total number of episodes to 100, enough for syndication.

And where did you read/hear this?
It was on a web site that popped up when I was doing searches for episodes. Never could find it again, but it looked legitimate at the time. If no one else has heard of it, then maybe I was tricked by a spoof page.

That is good news. But I would have to wait that 30 minute gap to see King of the Hill.

Let's see, carry the two, add another five...no, I only get 98 if you do that. To paraphrase a scene from "The Simpsons": "Sir, there are only 98 episodes." "Then there will be no syndication - and since it's not popular enough for syndication, we won't waste our time with North American DVDs. I'll tell the children."

Syndication packages are no longer limited to 100 eps.

I have already posted that I think I was fooled by a spoofed site. But thank you for not allowing my retraction to prevent you from politely correcting me anyway.

In my dream they're all available on DVD, and every night the monkey butlers put them in the player and serve me drinks while I watch.

It's still a lot more ambitious than Fox. Okay, I would like to have all the episodes of Futurama on DVD along with extra features such as a futurama video game and an apology from the executive that wanted to try to kill of the show. What do you think Sirs? Is that better?
