Fox's Futurama TV show is set to make yet another return, this time as a mobile game with a new story and some returning players
Futurama is back! As a mobile game...

Futurama has had an interesting life so far. Born from the heyday of the Simpsons with creator Matt Groening, it was an instant hit with audiences and critics on its arrival in 1999 but was mistreated by Fox and aired erratically, eventually leading to the series running to a standstill long before its time. Though maybe it would have been better if that also happened to The Simpsons.

The show came back in 2008 as four feature lengthed episodes and returned once more on Comedy Central in 2011 before it was cancelled again in its seventh season. It would seem like people don't really want to visit the universe anymore, but that's not going to stop someone from trying.
