Futurama

Futurama was the name of the famous General Motors exhibit at the 1939 New York World's Fair that depicted a futuristic landscape.

The elements Bender claims to be constructed out of change throughout the series (though given Bender's nature, it's possible he's lying). This became an in-joke amongst the writers in later episodes.

The familiar 20th Century Fox production company logo is shown at the very end of the show, but has been modified to read "30th Century Fox", since the sci-fi series begins in the 30th century. Note however that in the first episode it is a minute before New Year's Eve of the new millennium, and the rest of the episode and the entire series takes place in the 31st century. This is somewhat of an industry joke, since the production company debated for a long time what to do when the year 2000 came around: would they change their name to "21st Century Fox"? Futurama began its first season in 1999, with the pilot's story beginning on December 31, 1999, just before the big decision at 20th Century Fox had to be made. The decision of course, was to drop the century altogether and call the company simply "Fox".

Originally, one episode had a scene where Fry pulls down his pants and moons the business magnate Mom (of Mom's Friendly Robots). Her original dialogue was, "You call that an anus?", but it only appeared in closed captioning and was redubbed with "You call that a pressed ham?".
