Any news on new Futurama releases?

I`ve had to resort to *ahem* OTHER MEANS (edited by moderator) to get my fix, i now have 42 episodes but they`re getting harder to find and i`ve only got 10 episodes left to complete series 2-3-4.

Any news as to whether there are going to be more dvd releases yet as my season 1 box-set is getting worn out!

As far as I am aware Futurama has not been cancelled.

Fox do not have complete rights to Futurama, and as so have not asked to have as many shows produced.

The show has not been cancelled.

Edit:-

Just found this on another site for you to see

Futurama has not been cancelled yet and i quote

Just got the word seconds ago. FUTURAMA is not officially cancelled, though it is on a sort of hiatus. Turns out Fox, which hates the show as they do not own it and Groening does, has been giving it a sort of secondary status for the late few years, i.e., running it when they feel like it, dropping it when they don`t.

Turns out they have so many unaired episodes between seasons three and four (some reports indicate as many as 30!) that they don`t need to commission any new shows for season five and can keep running them whenever. Will they ever start production on new episodes? Hard to say. The staff isn`t too hopeful, but Fox has not given the Planet Express crew final notice yet.

I just bought Season 1, and boy was it a good purchase. I don`t normally buy DVD`s (I get them free in the mail) but I`ve seen it quite a few times on the TV and I saw the box set for £20, so I bought it. I hope that Season 2 is out very soon.

£20 for the Season 1 on DVD. I thought that was a pretty sweet deal.

I guess october is not so far away (if they don`t delay it for some unknown reason!) Then theres only 2 more seasons and all the unaired episodes to go!
