Futurama’s Latest Episode Takes a Jab at NFTs
The beloved animated sci-fi show Futurama is back with a new episode that takes a hilarious swipe at the world of non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Premiering on Hulu on July 29, the episode titled “The One Amigo” is set in the year 3024 and follows the characters as they navigate the concept of NFTs after selling a collection featuring the show’s iconic robot, Bender.
Filled with comedic moments, the episode showcases older characters struggling to understand NFTs, with some even falling asleep at the mention of blockchain. One scene features a parody of the Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT collection, renamed the “Apathetic Fish Society,” adding to the humor.
Children in the episode explain the complexities of NFTs, highlighting the unique nature of these digital assets. The show’s ability to blend futuristic scenarios with current technological trends continues to captivate viewers, especially with its sharp-witted takes on the crypto world.
This isn’t the first time Futurama has taken aim at the industry. In a previous episode titled “How the West Was 1010001,” the show parodied Bitcoin mining in a Wild West setting.
Fans of the show and crypto enthusiasts alike are sure to enjoy the clever and entertaining take on NFTs in Futurama’s latest episode.
