On Sirius radio this week, Howard Stern said that he has asked Billy to do a 1 hour show, doing his old Jackie the Jokeman puppet voice. (I hope Billy does it, but I hope he does all of his voices, and I would guess the show will need to be longer than an hour). They also have some old clips on Howardtv indemand channel doing the jackie puppet. When Billy was on Howard he was so damm funny. Billy West is one of the funniest guys out there. He comes up with stuff off the top of his head so quickly and right on point. And his voices are the best. But I guess I'm preaching to choir on this site. Glad I found this board. Please, please Billy work out your differences and do some shows with Howard on Sirius. You were so great on the show in the 90's. You will love it over at Sirius. You are the best !!!!!

Welcome Parker 151,
Thanks for your post! I hope you realize that this is your last--- naw,just
kidding! I'm glad that you got to see that stuff and you laughed.
I've talked extensively about this subject.Here's a little of the story.
All the stuff you see or hear from when I was on-- ended 11 plus years
ago.Some of the audio replays are from 16 years ago.I got out when I was
at the peak of my radio career.You rarely get a second chance to go out
on top like that.I was all done with it in 1995.I started in Boston in
1981.That's 25 years ago.I'm a radically different guy than I was then.But
it's so pissa' to see this ''internet arguement'' continue until people's
fingers fall off.I'm just tending my garden and when a few A-holes attack
me over this stuff,I just give 'em the old ''digitus impunicus.''
I'm thisclose to selling my show--''Billy Bastard--Amateur Human Being,''
And the other good news is that they're doing 26 new episodes of
''Futurama'' for TV and we're hammering out the deal now.The original
plan was to have the DVD's first but that's no longer the case.I'm totaly
jammed dude.
Greetings from the year 3000! It still sucks!
Billy

Oh My Darling Billy Boy,
You have no idea how many people are frantically linking this to as
many people as possible. Everyone of us screaming out "HOLY CRAP! YES!"
Also, as a wierd coincidence. I made this just two days ago:

I was wondering if there was a P.O Box where I can send some of these t-shirts to you and the others working Futurama.
Just a little something to let you all know that there are tons of us cheering you on.
Currently, there is only one tshirt.

Crappy-to-happy all around! I presume the tasteful and lovely Mr. DX Cohen is at the helm? I thought he had a new show idea also, about the music industry?
Wow, I hope everyone is ready to play. Any word on the other voice-oids - Katey, John D., Lauren, Phil, or for that matter Tress and Maurice?

Wow that's great news Billy
Will the 4 movies still be made, or is it now changed in 26 episodes and no movies? Either way, it's great news and I can't wait till I see the new episodes
