The the whole John DiMaggio/Futurama thing has me in a bind. While I know it’s not the writer’s fault about the collapse and that they will continue to churn out episodes that will certainly entertain, the loss of the man seems insurmountable. I don’t think he should take a pay cut and “do it for the fans”. But it won’t quite be the same show without him.
Advice?
Futurama doesn’t exist without Bender. Bender doesn’t exist without John DiMaggio. He deserves to be paid in a way that reflects his contributions to the show. He doesn’t owe the fans anything. The fans owe him our unwavering support and gratitude.
John’s made it very clear - he doesn’t simply think he deserves more money - he thinks the entire cast does. They ALL got low-balled, and he’s the only one who’s pushed back.
