With Plans To Recast ‘Futurama,’ Fox Infuriates Fanboys Everywhere

But seriously—why in the hell would you go and do that, Fox?

It’s like the time Vince McMahon tried to pawn off a fake Razor Ramon and Diesel on us. Or the time the Fresh Prince’s mum inexplicably became four shades lighter over the course of a season (Vitiligo?). Or maybe more relevant, the time Cartoon Network aired all those new episodes of Dragonball Z, and Goku sounded like he was severely constipated.

The point is this: if you’re bringing the show back for the rabid, already-established fanbase who knows the show best, how are you going to recast all the main voices and think the fans won’t care or notice? It wont work. [CrunchGear]
