2003-07-31 - 1:05 a.m. Lists of Questions and Hopes First. Don�t forget about my entry One Word Which you can get to from the extra�s page. I have been updating in almost every day, and would love it if you guy would too. Second, The Heavens have opened. Futurama has gone from viewership of 5.5 million on Fox to 2.5 million in syndication. Normally it drops like a brick. That�s just SICK. Don�t believe me; check out TV guide. However, if you don�t get it I am going to transpose the article now. It�s a conundrum worthy of Professor Farnsworth himself: How did Futurama blossom into a cable smash AFTER a bumpy five-season run on FOX. Set in the 31st Century the animated series has proven to be a rating success for Cartoon Network, averaging 2.5 million viewers a night in June. (The shows returns to the network�s lineup on November 2.) While that number�what executive producer David X. Cohen calls the show�s �hardcore group fans� � is little more than half of the 5.5 million viewers peaked at on Fox�s top seasons, its an impressive number for Cable. The show has also been getting good rating on TBS, where it has been airing weekdays at 2PM/ET since July 7. FOX will air the final episode which it never aired Sunday August 10, at 7PM/ET. But Cohen believes that series will come back at some point, possibly for cartoon network, which is very interested. �In my dream world, Futurama would become a Star-Trek-like phenomenon,� he says. �It would keep growing over the years and suddenly there are movies and we�re signing autographs for $3.��TV Guide. Yeah. Shit yeah. Okay so the deal is, get you questions, and then for god sake let me know that you got them, so I don�t sweat it out. If you don�t like them, don�t answer them or ask anniewaits18. She makes up awesome questions. Now. Questions for the Masses. I emailed Dinguspie his set, who has suddenly come back to life after 92 days of silence. 1) Why Diaryland?
