Revision as of 22:18, May 8, 2010

Futurama is an animated science-fiction comedy show, that was also created by Matt Groening. Numerous references have been made to the show throughout the run of The Simpsons. Many people have compared the Futurama main characters with the main Simpsons characters such as Bender is Futurama's Homer.

A running joke is that on The Simpsons, Futurama is a fictional cartoon show...on Futurama, however, it is The Simpsons that is a fictional cartoon show.
