Pearl: Back like we never left—it's Mario time!
Marina: We're celebrating the Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary, Splatfest style! [...] Hold up, though, Pearl. Wasn't the Splatocalypse the FINAL Splatfest?

Marina: True that! OK, back to business...

"On the count of three you will awaken feeling refreshed, as if Futurama hadn't been canceled by idiots, and then brought back by bigger idiots. One...two...three!"
Bender, Futurama Season 6 Opening

Professor Farnsworth: Good news, everyone! Those asinine morons who canceled us were themselves fired for incompetence.
[the crew cheers]
Professor Farnsworth: And not just fired, but beaten up, too... and pretty badly.''
[the crew cheers, somewhat less enthusiastically]
Professor Farnsworth: In fact, most of them died from their injuries.
[the crew are visibly alarmed, while Bender laughs evilly]
Professor Farnsworth: And then they were ground up into a fine pink powder.
Fry: Why?
Professor Farnsworth: Oh, it's got a million and one uses.
[he takes a can of Torgo's Executive Powder and sprinkles it in his pants]
Professor Farnsworth: Ah, that soothes the fire.
Leela: [referring to a collection of literal mechanical fans] So what does this mean for us and our many fans?
Professor Farnsworth: It means we're back on the air!
[the crew stand in confused silence]
Professor Farnsworth: Yes, flying on the air in our mighty spaceship!
[the crew cheers wildly]
Bender: We're back, baby!
Opening of the first Futurama DVD movie, Benders Big Score

Peter: Everybody, I got bad news. We've been canceled.
Lois: Oh, no, Peter, how could they do that?
Peter: Well, unfortunately, Lois, there's just no more room on the schedule. We've just gotta accept the fact that Fox has to make room for terrific shows like Dark Angel, Titus, Undeclared, Action, That '80s Show, Wonderfalls, Fast Lane, Andy Richter Controls the Universe, Skin, Girls Club, Cracking Up, The Pitts, Firefly, Get Real, FreakyLinks, Wanda at Large, Costello, The Lone Gunmen, A Minute with Stan Hooper, Normal, Ohio, Pasadena, Harsh Realm, Keen Eddie, The $treet, American Embassy, Cedric the Entertainer, The Tick, Luis, and Greg the Bunny.
Lois: Is there no hope?
Peter: Well, I suppose if all those shows go down the tubes, we might have a shot.
