‘Futurama’, ‘Real World’ Renewed

Written by Matt Ufford / 03.24.11

RENEWED: “Futurama,” for two more 13-episode cycles. The once-canceled Fox sitcom is enjoying its second life on Comedy Central, averaging 2.5 million viewers per episode after factoring in DVR.

CANCELED: “The Real Housewives of DC.” The White House-storming iteration of “Housewives” struggled to find viewers and won’t be renewed, according to Radar. That’s one down, and six — O.C., New Jersey, New York, Atlanta, Miami, and Beverly Hills — to go. Baby steps, people.

RENEWED: “The Real World,” for two more seasons. Presently airing its 25th season and casting for the 26th, MTV ordered seasons 27 and 28 yesterday. No word yet on where the casts will be living and filming, but I’d like to recommend somewhere hot. Like, say, the center of the Earth. Or maybe the sun.

CANCELED: “Lights Out,” FX’s boxing drama that drew viewers at the rate of “Terriers” but wasn’t half as good. Wanna know why it failed? The protagonist has the exact same voice as Tony Danza.

    At one point there were 7 of those abominations? Sodom and Gomorrah were somehow more displeasing than those 7 cities full of shrill harpies?

    Way to miss a “good news everyone!” opportunity.

    @The Hammer — You mean way to miss the obvious quote? You can click through on the story I linked to and see it there.

    @The Hammer even more disappointing is how you can mention Futurama news and wanting the Real World to take place on the sun and not get a link to the video from Futurama for Real World: The Sun

    Matt, leave the poor “Lights Out” guy alone. He’s a Space Monkey from Fight Club. I think he wanted to build a house.. or paint a self-potrait?

    “Lights Out” cancelled, “Real World” renewed. F@#k you, American viewing public.

    Ah, crispyaod makes a valid point. Sorry about that one.

    What Paul said.

    But I cannot endorse what elranito said. That’s disgusting.

    But I do have to admire the conciseness of elranito’s comment.

    /Get’s picture of ‘door flies open, elranito’s muscular mom crack whips large belt, yell’s “IT’S ELRANITO BUTT TIME!!” Fades to black as camera focus on elranito’s shaking hands as he closes laptop while being dragged away’

    //needs counseling.
