Premiere Date, Episode Schedule, and More

Futurama‘s road to the present day has been anything but smooth, but that hasn’t stopped it from earning the title of one of the best adult animations of the 21st century. Originally airing between 2003 and 2007, the show would quickly earn cult status and time away from screens would grow the heart of viewers fonder. After re-runs and a couple of seasons on Comedy Central in the early 2010s, Futurama was lost in space once more, although it wouldn’t be long before Hulu saved the day.

Now in a safe streaming home, the show looks to be back for the foreseeable, especially considering the confirmation that the upcoming Season 12 will be followed by more right through until 2026. The anticipation for the next outing following the strong showing in Season 11 has caused plenty of speculation, so, with that in mind, here is a look at exactly how you can stream Futurama Season 12.

Futurama

Futurama follows the exploits of Philip J. Fry, a pizza delivery boy from 1999 who is cryogenically frozen for 1000 years. Waking up in the year 3000, Fry befriends a cyclops named Leela and a roguish robot named Bender, and the three find employment with Planet Express, an interplanetary delivery service. Their work takes them to all corners of the universe, exploring space and the future as imagined by Matt Groening and the creators of The Simpsons.

“On this orbit around the sun, our occasionally heroic crew embarks on mind-bending adventures involving birthday party games to the death, the secrets of Bender’s ancestral robot village, A.I. friends (and enemies), impossibly cute beanbags, and the true 5 million-year-old story behind the consciousness-altering substance known as coffee.
