With Plans to Recast Futurama, Fox Infuriates Fanboys Everywhere [Futurama]

But seriously—why in the hell would you go and do that, Fox?

It’s like the time Vince McMahon tried to pawn off a fake Razor Ramon and Diesel on us. Or the time the Fresh Prince’s Aunt Viv inexplicably became four shades lighter over the course of a season (Vitiligo?). Or maybe more relevant, the time Cartoon Network aired all those new episodes of Dragonball Z, and Goku sounded like he was severely constipated.

The point is this: if you’re bringing the show back for the rabid, already-established fanbase who knows the show best, how are you going to recast all the main voices and think the fans won’t care or notice? It wont work. [CrunchGear]
