What's left behind the scenes
- 'Futurama' was the name of the famous General Motors exhibit at the 1939 New York World's Fair, which highlighted the technical wonders of the future.
- The name Philip was given to Fry in memory of Phil Hartman, who was cast to voice Major General Zepp Brannigan in the series.
- Creator Matt Groening named the robot Bender after John Bender from the movie 'The Breakfast Club'.
- Some of the sound effects used in the animated series are taken from other science fiction television series, including "The Jetsons" and "Star Trek".
- Leela's full name, Turanga Leela, is linked to the work "Turangalîla-Symphonie" by French composer Olivier Messiaen. The name "Turangalîla" is derived from two Sanskrit words that can be translated as "song of love".
- Dr. Zoidberg has teeth in several of the first episodes of "Futurama".
- Fry's favorite song is "I'm Walking on Sunshine".
- The portrait of Zapp Brannigan in his room is based on the famous portrait of US President John F. Kennedy in the White House.
- In the very first episode of the series, in the Museum of Heads, you can spot the head of the show's creator, Matt Groening.
- In the first episode, when Fry wakes up in the year 3000, there is a poster of a worker on the wall in Leela's office with the caption 'You do what you gotta do' — this is a play on the famous New York slogan from the 2000s: 'You do what you wanna do'.
- The spaceships and backgrounds in many scenes were created using 3D computer graphics. The scenes were first drawn by hand and then transferred into 3D.
