‘Futurama’ Hits Another Finale — But It May Not Be Goodbye

Hulu’s new specials keep the animated series active after Season 14 ends, and the first holiday episode is set for 2027.

  • The Season 14 finale, titled 'Final Ending: The Last Conclusion,' arrived on Hulu yesterday, offering a tongue-in-cheek reference to the animated comedy's history of multiple, ultimately temporary series finales.
  • Originally airing on Fox from 1999 to 2003, the animated comedy was revived by Comedy Central, then Hulu in 2023, allowing the show to survive multiple cancellations throughout its long history.
  • Fans can anticipate three 'XXXL-Sized' specials, including a 'Christmas-themed' installment arriving in 2027 featuring 'Robot Santa,' as creator Matt Groening confirms the content taps into the show's long-running lore.
  • While Hulu has not ordered Season 15, Groening told Variety he is 'not too worried,' noting the team has written six potential series finales and possesses many more stories to tell.
  • Executive producer David X. Cohen is now working on a seventh potential series finale, ensuring the franchise continues production even without a confirmed commitment beyond the three planned specials.
