New Futurama Series will not have original Voice Actors.

Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit.

My hope is that they either dump the cast and get new characters, or give everyone hilarious new accents that make them feel like new characters.

Soundalikes will ruin things forever.

Fucking bullshit.

The movies already started to spiral down after the first one... I'm sure this new series will be as convoluted as it is stale

I'm going to lose my mind if Seth Mcfarlane has any sway over the series. I can't stand that asshole.

Oh dear...

I'm sure the actors are now kicking themselves silly.

I seem to recall a similar incident on the Simpsons * where the voice actors threw their toys out of their pram, said "YOU CAN'T DO IT WITHOUT US!" and demanded more money. Fox let them leave, and the shellshocked actors came crawling on their hands and knees begging for Fox to take them back.

*or another popular American sitcom... It might have been friends

I'll give the pilot episode a go, but to me, this defeats the whole point of the Futurama comeback.

No, it was The Simpsons. They did end up getting a pay rise, just not as much as they wanted.

Ew, why revive it when you can't hire the original voice actors? I hate it when they do that. They don't realise one of the best things about about Futurama is the voice acting. Jeez.

What bothers me is that every voice Billy West did, you could tell it was Billy West. You could tell every character done by Billy West... was Billy West. It will be impossible to find soundalikes for all these characters.

I've decided to give the new series one shot, if it sucks (and it probably will) that's it for me.

Keep trying! It might get better. Pilot's are renowned for sucking See what I did there? =D

But don't watch them on TV. Download them. Don't contribute to their viewing figures. We will not condone their replacement of the actors.

The fact is, the whole budget for the new episodes will be a mere fraction of what it was.
