"Futurama " was a excellent show from the same creator of "The Simpsons" .Like that show "Futurama " had a brilliant and satirical sense of humor ,and also many references to sci-fi shows that work very well . The characters are very funny and original , And while the story advances we learn more about them .The animation is very much like "The Simpsons " ,but it doesn't matter ,because the stories are hilarious and unpredictable . Many of the stories work very much fro the parallels between modern events ,so the sci-fi is just a element used to make satire of contemporary events . And even if you aren't a sci -fi fan , the show still have many interesting elements that make recommend it to anybody . This was a excellent show .I can't believe that it was canceled .
