It all began in 1999 when a dejected 25-year-old Philip J. Fry (Billy West) happened to stumble into a cryogenic lab which consequently thrust him 1000 years into the future. It made for a unique pilot episode, titled ‘Space Pilot 3000,’ especially when Fry meets his new futuristic friends: a one-eyed cyborg named Leela (Katey Sagal) and an immoral robot named Bender (John DiMaggio). But that pilot episode founded what would go on to become a hilarious, intelligent, crude, obscure, and lovable animated series known as Futurama, with a brand-new season bringing the show back to life.
