Reruns in 2008 on Comedy Central
The cosmic weirdos of Futurama will land on Comedy Central in 2008. The cable network picked up the rights to all 72 episodes of the Matt Groening/David X. Cohen animated series from Twentieth Television in a multi-year agreement.
"Futurama," whose reruns are scoring solid numbers on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim after a five-year primetime stint on the Fox Network (1999-2003), arrives at Comedy Central with 72 episodes in January 2008 for a five-year license term. The show's Adult Swim contract expires in December 2007.
