Useless Facts, Badly Drawn #52: Futurama: A silly cartoon that's smarter than you think!
.
"Piss Factory" is a sublime title for a track, thank you Patti Smith.
Currently listening to Matt Groening's mix for the Breezeblock in 2005, the man has taste...

Today (March 28) in 1999, Futurama first aired.
"The Simpsons Theme", also referred to as "#TheSimpsons Main Title Theme" in album releases, is the #themeMusic of the animated #televisionSeries The Simpsons. It plays during #theOpeningSequence and was #composed by #DannyElfman in 1989, after series creator #MattGroening approached him requesting a theme. The piece has been noted by Elfman as the most popular of his career.

Matt Groening on merchandising:
"I respect Bill Watterson's resistance to all the offers to exploit Calvin and Hobbes, but I don't think it would compromise him personally... I don't think that a comic strip is innately superior to a T-shirt."
(I strongly disagree with this. In fact, it would be difficult to find a statement about comic strips that I disagree with more)

Every time I rewatch Disenchantment all the way through again (which is often), I love it even more. Its beginning and progression, the arcs, the ending. It's pure genius.
Futurama fa un quarto di secolo. Il cartone "avveniristico" di Matt Groening era ambientato 1000 anni nel futuro, ma in soli 25 anni ha già anticipato diverse "profezie" tecnologiche nella vita reale. Dopo aver ripassato i Jetsons ho fatto un giro anche nel mondo di Fry, Bender e compagni.

Kamala Harris keeps hitting it out of the park.
Such enthusiasm! So happy
Kamala Harris Makes Surprise Comic-Con Video Appearance During ‘The Simpsons’ Panel
“#KamalaHarris has made one of her first campaign stops in the town of Springfield.
The Vice President of the United States surprised The #Simpsons fans with a pre-recorded video message on Saturday during the long-running Fox animated show’s San Diego #ComicCon panel, after creator #MattGroening introduced the “superfan.”

Happy 70th Birthday to The Simpsons creator Matt Groening! #80s #80sTV #MattGroening
I enjoyed the last season of #Disenchanted. The arcs of Zøg, Bean and Elfo/Luci felt like a good character development from #MattGroening's near-archetypes of Homer, Lisa and Bart's good/bad or innocent/cunning sides.
(I've not seen enough Futurama to know if this pans out there too)
Burning through episodes like a hot knife through butter.
A bisexual princess with magical powers who is to be married to the devil in hell against her will?
I interrupted my abstinence from long time TV for Disenchantment and I have to say I'm thrilled.
It's so good, almost Futurama level good.
Found this old #MattGroening cartoon from around 1988? I went to California that year
Super happy with the final season of Disenchantment. They wrapped up the plot points, covered the emotional beats, gave Bean a happy ending and even got Elfo laid. The show’s not for everyone but if you’re of the “Raised by Mad magazine and late-night TV” generation and dug the first couple of seasons then the ride to the finale is a damn good time.

In 1985 I was studying #film history as an undergraduate and the #comic below immediately became one of my all-time favorites. I was able to locate myself in the bottom right panel as both the sniveling #cinema enthusiast and the film buff.
