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 as well as Futurama making references to The Simpsons. Many people have compared the Futurama main characters with The Simpsons main 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.

A crossover episode between Futurama and The Simpsons has been hinted for some future episode.

Picture Season Episode number Episode name Reference 1 1 "Space Pilot 3000" When Fry passes through an underwater tube, Blinky briefly appears in the water below him. Also, in an early storyboard of this episode, Fry is watching The Simpsons. 7 "My Three Suns" One of Bender's badges at the bottom of his sash has a profile of Homer. 8 "A Big Piece of Garbage" On the trash asteroid, a pile of Bart Simpson dolls can be seen. Bender picks up one and hears Bart say his catchprase, "Eat my shorts". Bender complies and eat them and mimics Homer in saying "Mmm... shorts". Nancy Cartwright voiced the Bart Simpson doll. 9 "Hell Is Other Robots" When Fry and Leela open the door to the Robot Hell, a heart with an arrow through reads "H.S. 4 M.B.". This means "Homer Simpson for Marge Bouvier" (later Simpson). 11 "Mars University" Homer and Bart toys appear as prizes at the "Coney Island College". 13 "Fry and the Slurm Factory" Bart, Lisa, and Maggie appear in the opening sequence on the TV screen in one the Tracey Ullman short, "Making Faces". 2 18 "Why Must I Be a Crustacean in Love?"
