The acclaimed science fiction comedy animated series Futurama has been renewed once again, this time taking the adventures of the Planet Express crew to Hulu with brand-new episodes.

Fry and his friends in the 31st century face futuristically comedic twists on the follies and foibles affecting contemporary audiences, including riffs on cryptocurrency and systemically disinformation campaigns.In a roundtable interview at New York Comic-Con 2023 attended by CBR, Futurama executive producers David X. Cohen and Claudia Katz, producer Lee Supercinski, and supervising directors Peter Avanzino, Edmund Fong, and Crystal Chesney-Thompson detail bringing Futurama back with new episodes on Hulu a decade since its last revival.As the journalists sit with the creative team, Cohen observes that one of the predictions that Futurama got the most wrong out of the gate was the idea that cell phones would continue to get smaller rather than bigger as they had in the real world. Cohen and Chesney-Thompson recall that, at the time, the trend was that cell phones were growing smaller, leading them to create a Futurama joke around that accordingly. CBR asks the creative team how they developed new challenges for Fry and Leela after giving them a happy ending in the Season 7 finale, particularly the ninth episode when a bewitched Leela appears to fall in love with the Prince of Space.RELATED: Futurama’s Riff on Sci-Fi Tropes Highlights Bender’s Ultimate Tragedy
