The Alphabet and Language of Futurama
Original at tracesofvisualhistory (WordPress)
• Sun, Nov 15
By berrinsun Several English expressions have evolved since the present day. For example, the word Christmas has been replaced with Xmas (pronounced “EX-mas) and the word ask with aks (pronounced axe). According to David X. Cohen it is a running joke that the French language is extinct in the Futurama u...

It occurs to me that of all of the holidays Futurama dealt with, they haven't done anything with Halloween yet (It feels kind of weird to be talking in the future tense. What a good problem to have, eh?) So anyway, let's start to celebrate Halloween by lighting the old pumpkin. This rather intr...

Sound familiar? It should, 'cause Fry and Bender are on the job, and like as not they're not actually doing anything so there wouldn't be anything to hear, except maybe Leela yelling at them. Actually though, there is another reason it should sound familiar - and that's 'cause this Fan Art f...

No New Actors for Futurama
Original at About.com Animated TV
• Mon, Aug 10
In July, the media (not me!) freaked out because Fox was auditioning new actors to play the characters on new episodes of Futurama. I'm sure they could have pulled it off, but ugh, not fun. The stunt was used to pressure the actors into signing their contracts. It worked. I don't know how much Kat...

By Chris Along with the usual science fiction references (including a nice bit of fun where George Takei is shouting at Scott Bakula, “Way to kill the franchise, Bakula!”), there’s plenty of references to D&D and to “The Lord of The Rings”. Fans of both should be very amused.
