Sometimes I wish I had a cryogenic chamber just so I could skip ahead a week. But with my luck, I'd end up like our friend Fry.
Matt Groening — yes, that Matt Groening — had the idea for Futurama long before it actually hit the airwaves in 1999. Much more than just The Simpsons set in space, it may not have reached the same ratings as Groening's other creation, but it has taken on a cult-like following that's still going.
