It'll take them time to get to a point where they can put out the requisite number of episodes in a season, and they don't want to start broadcasting until the production team hits that target. Since there was no contract before, they didn't have the money nor (I'm sure) did they want to take the risk of blowing a bunch of dough getting things ready only to have it all blow out if the network backed off. While Futurame uses computer animation, most of it is still classic cell animation, and that kind of animation is incredibly labour intensive. It's going to take time for them to get up to speed... <off-key>Anticipation, anticipa-a-tion</off-key> --\n-------------------------------------------------------------------\n* Jack Troughton jake at consultron.ca \n [link\|http://consultron.ca\|http://consultron.ca] [link\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca] \n Kingston Ontario Canada [link\|news://news.consultron.ca\|news://news.consultron.ca] *\n-------------------------------------------------------------------

Post #268,922 by SpiceWare 9/29/06 10:45:41 AM Reply	I recall it taking 9 months to make an episode and that was when they'd been making them for a while. google looks like 9 was the short end of the range - [link\|http://dvd.ign.com/articles/432/432838p1.html\|An Interview with David X. Cohen] We've had been out of operation for a while, because the lag time in the animation means we're working 9 to 12 months in advance.
