I really hope the cast got what they want.

Thanks Jesus.

 

[Ziggyman]

Thanks Jesus.

[Kanon]

Thanks Robot Jesus.

Fix'd t:

 

[Manic]

Great vanilla gorilla from Manila! They're back!

 

[Perfect Cell]

Well, that's certainly a relief. I just wish Fox hadn't pulled such a dick move about it all. Unless this is all standard negotiating practice, and you only hear about Fox doing it.

 

[Manic]

FOX certainly wouldn't be the first to try this tactic. Sometimes it ends with the actors compromising and taking a smaller raise (or no raise). Sometimes it's one of the many reasons actors don't return for movie sequels.

Hitflix is reporting:

"Update 4:40 PM PST: HitFix's Dan Fienberg says according to sources at 20th Century Fox, Billy West and John DiMaggio have not yet signed, but are close. However, Katey Sagal, Maurice LaMarche and Tress MacNeille are confirmed to have signed by the FOX source."

They might want to bargain for higher pay because of their more prominent role in the series /film speculates.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

Gugh. Losing Billy West and John Dimaggio would suck major ****, I think even not having them would make me not watch the show.

 

[AnorexicBatman]

Partially Good News Everyone!!!

 

[Hound55]

Thanks Zombie Jesus.

Fixed.

 

[Kingfish]

That Hitflix thing is old. IGN reported the same thing yesterday, but has updated it to include both of them. Matt Groening has also confirmed it.

Thanks hound, you beat me to it.

It doesn't get any more official than this (well, maybe with the airing of the show itself, and the voices)

[Kurosawa]

Couldn't be happier and can't wait for the new shows!

 

[Nathan]

Just saw in another Thread that the original actors are back. Didn't hear of the news when it was first announed. This is great. I honestly had no problem to simply skip the new episodes.

 

[John Locke]

It's great that they got the old voices back. It would of failed without them.

 

[chaseter]
