I don't know. I'm as big a fan as anyone, and am very thankful for the reruns, but think that the original series may have ran its course. Having Leela and Fry get together in the last episode, made for a touching finale, and I was satisfied by the closure.

Having crossed that line, I worry that any new episodes would suffer and be a bit directionless. By example, I find the new episodes of Family Guy way too reliant on shock gags and taboo busting; much more than they ever were before. It's just not the same.

I'm still pissed at Fox for marginalizing the original run though. Stupid wankers just can't recognize a good property.
