Recasting Futurama

You may have heard that Futurama is being renewed. This is good.

You may have heard that Futurama is losing its cast. This is disastrous.

The people who play any character you'd care to name aren't going to be doing their old parts in the new version, so say goodbye to Bender, Fry and Leela, and say hello to "New" Bender, Fry and Leela. Not to mention Calculon, Zoidberg, the Professor, and Hermes, and a universe of incidental characters.

So, Futurama may come back, but Bender never will.
