"Futurama"
This animated sci-fi comedy had a path similar to that of "Family Guy," with FOX
canceling the show and its reruns ending up on cable, in this case Comedy
Central. Unlike its time on FOX, however, "Futurama" seemed valued by Comedy
Central, who flirted with the idea ... moreof producing new episodes before finally
pulling the trigger in 2010. And though it looked for a time like the show's
original voice actors might be too expensive for the relaunch, the principal
cast was eventually inked and new episodes began airing, providing the network
with record viewing numbers with its premiere.
