> [@Uosdwis\_R.Dewoh](#): > > Have you guys heard Matt Groening and David X. Cohen are making a new series set in the year 4000? It’s called _Futurella_ and they showed a preview on Comic-Con. [Here’s](http://www.comedycentral.com/videos/index.jhtml?videoId=352118&title=futurella-at-comic-con) the preview. Would you by chance have something we canuckleheads can look at? 🙂 Seriously. This pisses me off everytime someone posts something South Park/Daily Show/Tosh.0/Futurama related. Who should I be getting mad at? CRTC and my nanny state, or greedy viacom assclowns? :mad: ---

That’s odd. I live in Finland and I had no problems seeing it. Anyways, it’s not a real show, it’s just a sketch where Fry and the gang go to Comic-Con and Matt Groening announces Futurella. Before they get the chance to show the preview, Fox cancels the show. Bender ensues. ---

Yeah, any attempt to access anything from comedy central automatically forwards you to Canada’s thecomedynetwork.ca, which doesn’t have all the same videos and clips. Ipso facto, we get screwed. ☹ ---

Strangely, I could access it in Australia, too. Anyway, that was comedy gold. Actually, it was comedy TITANIUM! ---
