Futurama Matt Groening Episode Tie In

I think fox moved the date for the broadcast back. Currently simpsons wiki has it scheduled for November 9.
  • the MG date had MG removed and it was this. remember those are all speculations and can be changed anytime. also nobody said it was going to be futurama
  • Seems like the Matt Groening tag was just a place holder or perhaps a redherring. The Futurama crossover isnt until the 9th, so IF they do a tie in, it'll be next week. But it sounds like we arent getting one due to "legal reasons". But fingers crossed we do get one.

    Whatever happened to that episode tie in update that should of happened to happen today? It was quoted on spansers website that he found files of a matt groening tie in update that should of came on the 29th of October.


    It was never guaranteed to happen.
  • I don't know for sure but I have to think they worked out the legal hurdles. I don't know how else they would have gotten Bender's image and a small bit of diologe in during CoC. I guy can hope right?

    That's the hope I have that a Futurama tie-in might happen. Usually these rights issues are all or nothing. They physically used Bender's head during Clash of Clones, so I'm hoping for the best.
