The New Futurama Series Is Recasting Bender... for Now

The absence of John DiMaggio in Futurama's list of returning voice actors has gotten much more noticeable after reports that the show has recast the role of Bender for its upcoming surprise eighth season on Hulu. Fans—as well as DiMaggio—are not happy.

Hope John DiMaggio will join up. They can't recast Bender.

Sounds like it's a work in progress with time to get something done, so they damn well better.

Third rebot's a charm right? Bite my shinny metal ass if they recast Bender's voice.

Bender was the best part of the show. If they recast him I'll have to smack someone around like Mom smacks her kids.

Casting an animated show is a lot like pimping, only you don't have to use the phrase "Upside your head!"

There's a Quantum Leap one coming too.

I'll likely at least give both an occasional viewing.

The advancement in graphics and CGI over the years should make this a good one. I remember watching this when I was way younger and wondering how and why all those bolts of light were coming out of his skin. It blew my mind.

I can't imagine anyone else voicing Bender. What a great character.

I'm not sure how I JUST heard about this today but I am insanely excited for more Futurama. I didn't even totally hate the idea of having a different guest star voice Bender every week if John DiMaggio opted not to return.

As much as I have the originals memorized from watching them 50x each, I never really saw the reboot episodes. Kids said they were OK, but not as good. Maybe I will have to go back and watch those before 3.0 comes out.

It was more Futurama with no crazy drop offs in quality. Nothing compared to the years long decline of the Simpsons or Family Guy.

Just saw this, **** ya!!!
