Countdown to Futurama is an Internet countdown conducted by Comedy Central Insider, Comedy Central's news site, to the premieres of broadcast seasons 7, 8 and 9 of Futurama with releases of promotional content. It is written by Matt Tobey and Gonzalo Cordova (25 May, 2010 - 8 June, 2010), and shows stills, storyboards, videos, and concept art for the upcoming episodes.
Countdown to Futurama 2010 began on 5 May, 2010, and released material from broadcast season 7 each weekday until 24 June; Futurama's 12 Days of Xmas Countdown began on 9 November, 2010, and released material from "The Futurama Holiday Spectacular"; Countdown to Futurama 2011 began on 4 May, 2011, and released material from broadcast season 8 every day until 22 June; Countdown to Reincarnation began on 2 September, 2011, and released material from "Reincarnation"; and Countdown to Futurama 2012 began on 1 May, 2012. All three Countdowns to Futurama started off fifty days before a season premiere.
On 2 May, 2012, Comedy Central's Tumblr blog [1] made, for the first time, a Countdown to Futurama post [2] not previously made by Comedy Central Insider, and did so again on forty more days - which do not include 20 May and 27 May.
