Futurama Merchandise – Delivery from the Year 3000
What do you do once you've invented the most successful animated series in the world? You send it a thousand years into the future: with "Futurama," Simpsons creator Matt Groening and David X. Cohen launched a science-fiction comedy in 1999 that catapults its hero Philip J. Fry via cryo chamber from New Year's Eve 1999 straight into the year 3000. There, he takes a job at the delivery service Planet Express – alongside robot Bender, pilot Leela, and the very, very old Professor Farnsworth. The show was cancelled more than once, revived via DVD movies and network changes, and has been running with new seasons since 2023 – weeds just don't die, not even in outer space. At Elbenwald you'll find officially licensed Futurama merchandise.
What makes Futurama stand out?
The mix of nonsense and brilliance. On the surface, Futurama delivers robot anarchy, an alien lobster with a doctorate, and a professor whose inventions regularly endanger the universe. Underneath sits a show whose writing staff included mathematicians and computer scientists with actual PhDs – which is why so many science jokes hide in the background, from equations on chalkboards to entire episodes about logic paradoxes. Several Emmys speak to the quality, and when the show gets serious, it hits straight in the heart: episodes like the story of Fry's dog are still required tissue-box viewing to this day. Bender would of course deny that – while secretly wiping away a stolen tear.
