Futurama

Arguably even better than sister show The Simpsons ( gasp!), Futurama was a nostalgic, warm- hearted ’ toon that was basically a love letter to all the sci- fi clichés we grew up with, from robots to rayguns to evil doubles with goatees. Like Star Trek, it had an extraordinary ability to come back from cancellation time and again – and even featured the Enterprise crew as disembodied heads. It also starred a terrifying, power- mad amphibian who was... er... no, wait... oh... ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD!
