Still, it seems that Fox doesn't want to create another long-running cartoon show with Groening involved. Even if the show has a ton of references, it's still a damn fine show. I don't see why they would want to kill it again.

Heck, with Family Guy at least they're airing the hell out of it. It has to be Groening, man.
