Hitherto Unknown Facts
Wizard Entertainment has an interview with David X Cohen about the new episodes of Futurama being produced for 2008. It's quite short, but it has some groin-grabbing teasers, including mention of a 22 minute special of Everybody Loves Hypnotoad and the return of ex-next president, future Oscar winner and inventor of the algorithm, Al "You are hearing me talk" Gore.
Within the new season, we will definitely feature more continuity than in the past. We will also be shedding light on several lingering questions from the original run, including hitherto unknown facts about Nibbler, dark matter and Seymour the dog. By the way, that was my first use of the word "hitherto" in an interview. I think it went well.
Now if you'll excuse me I'm off to cryogenically freeze myself for a year.
