Forums - Microsoft - Major Nelson will suggest reviving Futurama as Xbox exclusive

http://www.neowin.net/news/major-nelson-will-suggest-reviving-futurama-as-xbox-exclusive

Good news everyone! Fans of the animated show Futurama might have something to look forward to now that the show has aired its final episode. One unlikely supporter has showed up to pitch a revival of the series to Microsoft, and that supporter is none other than Major Nelson.

Talking to a member of the Neowin community on Reddit, Larry Hryb said the idea of a revived Futurama series as an Xbox exclusive sounded like a great one and that he would pitch it inside the company. Of course, he went on to say, this isn’t a promise of any kind but it should bring some hope to fans of the series.

Microsoft has been trying to bolster its TV entertainment department for the upcoming launch of Xbox One, so adding a show with a cult following among young people to its line-up can only help its efforts.

We’ll have to wait and see if anything comes out of this idea, but in either case it’s great to see once again people from Microsoft listening to the community.

That's pretty cool if it works out. Not too many shows get to say they've been canceled twice and are still up and running.



let it die. the post first cancellation shows we're pretty bad.



Never understood the appeal of this show. Looked pretty freaking stupid when I watched an episode or 1 minute to be honest. Oh well good luck with it I guess.



That could be pretty cool.

All I needed was that one minute to tell me I wouldn't like it though.  That's just me though. 



DAMN, I have to buy this piece of ... hardware now? damn you futurama, damn youuuuuu!



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.
