Here's the latest news on the Futurama movies and episodes. This confirms what I had feared. There will be four new movies released on DVD but no actually new episodes. The episodes to air on Comedy Central will be recycled from the movies. Each 88 minute movie will be cut up into four half-hour episodes. What a weird deal.
I am also slightly concerned about the apparent focus on Bender. I hope they don't overdo it. Bender is a great character but he's better as supporting or part of the ensemble then as the lead. They produced a lot of Bender-centric episodes right near the end of the series and they weren't their best efforts.
Either way, I'm thrilled there will be more Futurama in a few months.
