Futurama Looks Back at Fry's Iconic Moments, Bender's Illicit Schemes

With the return season of Futurama hitting Hulu on July 24th, here are some of Fry's & Bender's classic moments from the previous seasons.

Yes, it's true, Futurama fans! We actually have some good news to announce! We're officially only nine days away from the return of Matt Groening and David X. Cohen's Futurama. With the first of 20 new episodes hitting Hulu on Monday, July 24th (and episodes dropping weekly after that), Adult Swim (a network that knows a thing or two about the animated series) continues to make it easier for fans to remember the great moments from the original run before the return season begins creating new ones. Along with a look back at a previously-released video focusing on Bender (John DiMaggio), this go-around shifts the spotlight onto Philip J. Fry, aka Fry (Billy West) – the time-displaced slacker with a heart of gold… and a brain of pudding.

So for a look back at some of Fry's more iconic moments and Bender's wonderfully deceptive, highly illegal scams & schemes, check out the two compilation videos below (followed by what we know so far about the series' return later this month):

With John DiMaggio, Billy West, Katey Sagal, Tress MacNeille, Maurice LaMarche, Lauren Tom, Phil LaMarr, and David Herman set to return for the first of 20 new episodes on July 24th (and dropping weekly after that), here's a look back at the official trailer and overview for Hulu's Futurama:

After a brief ten-year hiatus, Futurama has crawled triumphantly from the cryogenic tube, its full original cast and satirical spirit intact. The ten all-new episodes of season eleven have something for everyone. New viewers will be able to pick up the series from here, while long-time fans will recognize payoffs to decades-long mysteries – including developments in the epic love story of Fry and Leela, the mysterious contents of Nibbler's litter box, the secret history of evil Robot Santa, and the whereabouts of Kif and Amy's tadpoles. Meanwhile, there's a whole new pandemic in town as the crew explores the future of vaccines, bitcoin, cancel culture, and streaming TV.

The animated series premiered in 1999 and quickly gained a faithful following and critical acclaim, including two primetime Emmys for Outstanding Animated Program. Despite its far-future setting, the show is renowned for its satiric commentary on life in the present. The series follows Philip J. Fry (Billy West), a New York City pizza delivery boy who accidentally freezes himself in 1999 and gets defrosted in the year 3000. In this astonishing New New York, he befriends hard-drinking robot Bender (John DiMaggio) and falls in love with cyclops Leela (Katey Sagal). The trio finds work at the Planet Express Delivery Company, founded by Fry's doddering descendant, Professor Hubert Farnsworth. Together with accountant Hermes Conrad, assistant Amy Wong, and alien lobster Dr. John Zoidberg, they embark on thrilling adventures that take them to every corner of the universe.

Created by Matt Groening and developed by Groening and David X. Cohen, Hulu's Futurama is executive produced by Groening, Cohen, Ken Keeler, and Claudia Katz.
