An interesting note on what Futurama might have been like (from Wikipedia):
At the time of his death, Hartman was preparing to voice Zapp Brannigan, a character written specifically for him on Groening's second animated series Futurama. After the murder, Futurama's lead character Philip J. Fry was named in Hartman's honor and Billy West took over the role of Brannigan. West later said that he purposefully tweaked Zapp's voice to better match Hartman's intended portrayal.
Now that would have been crazy. Newsradio and Futurama are pretty much my two favorite sitcoms, and while I love Billy West's Brannigan, it would have been awesome to see what Hartman would have done with it.
