So..yeah. In February or May ( can't remember which, but I know it's a sweeps month...probably May) there's going to be an episode of "Futurama" featuring the voices of most if not all of the still-extant TOS cast. It seems that in the future (our future, Futurama's past) "Star Trek" was banned because the fans became so powerful a force they were able to topple world governments. So, in an attempt to show his friends what the future was supposed to be like, Fry goes on a search through the universe for lost & hidden tapes of the show.

First heard about this a few months ago, and have been counting down the days ever since. Here's hoping it'll kick ass. [Smile]

Well, Nimoy lended his voice for Spock (or, rather, his head) in the pilot episode - freakin' hilarious. Futurama is one little gem, underrated.

Only three of the original series actors lent their voices for Matt Groening's works. Leonard Nimoy, Nichelle Nichols, and George Takei

Two of which have already been in the Simpsons...

I'm kinda surprised that Koenig didn't do it. He's always come across as a fairly affailable fellow with a good sense of humour.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Takei is actually a semi-regular on The Simpsons. I think he does the voice for Akira.
