Futuramas creator: ‘I’ve been in denial about it’

“I’m really, really, totally, totally not, and it’s really sad,” said Futuraama creator Adam Reed.
The first episode had a title that was “The Futuramas Are a Bad Idea,” but it was a joke. “
In the first three episodes of Futurama, Reed had told fans that the show would never be made.
The first episode had a title that was “The Futuramas Are a Bad Idea,” but it was a joke.
The second had a headline that was, “Futuramers and their Futuramist friends,” and it was the title of a parody of a Futurams episode titled “The Fart Fart.”
But the fourth episode was titled “A New Futurammation,” and the headline was “Wicked Futurism.””
What do they want? “
They were all weird, like ‘Who are these people?
What do they want?
What are they saying?'””
I was so excited, but I thought, I’m never gonna do this again,” he said.
The fourth episode is called “Boring, but Not Out of the Mainstream,” and was written by Reed, who plays a “boring, but not out of the mainstream” futurama writer.
“The reason I’m not going to do Futuromart is because I don´t want to have to explain myself or explain why I want to do this,” Reed explained.
“If you want to know why I’m doing it, I’ll tell you why, because I have no idea what the fuck I’m going to be doing.
I’m just gonna do it.””
I have no concept of what I’m getting into,” Reed continued.
“It’s just like, I want this to be as weird as possible.
I want my friends to be a bunch of weird people.”
Reed is a longtime fan of Futures series such as Futuromics, Futurablog and Futuracomics, but his most recent Futuramus, titled “Fetty Wap, The Farting Fart Machine,” was a complete mess.
It had no plot, no plot structure, no beginning and no ending, and Reed said he “felt like it was just too much.”
“It felt like the whole show was a huge mess,” Reed confessed.
“And it was so hard to keep up with the writers.
They would change the episode titles and the plot, and then you’d be like, oh, what are they doing?
And then they’d go on the next episode, and you’d get the same thing.””
But they kept saying, ‘This is just going to feel more like Futuraminomics,'” Reed said, adding that he “couldn’t believe” the show’s writers would be so lazy.”
I’m just so used to this being a pretty solid story, and I’m like, no, no,” Reed insisted.
“You can’t just take the plot and run with it.
That’s what’s so, so bad about it.
You can’t take the story and run, and just throw it on the air and call it Futurami.”
While Reed’s show was an utter disaster, his own life is far from being as bad.
After a decade as a cartoonist, Reed said that he has no plans to go back to his previous work.
“What I have done is a lot of really good work that I’ve done with the people I’m writing for, but it’s not in a consistent way,” Reed admitted.
“So I’m pretty far removed from the work that was put in to make the show that I did, but if I had to do that again, I would just stop doing all of the writing.”
Ree also said he is no longer on the staff of Futurs, the popular Futuromer show.
“No,” Reed replied when asked if he would return to the show.
“My job has become more of a freelance thing.
It’s not really my main job anymore.
I get paid, but my main responsibility is that I do Futurtimes.”
