Short summary

After the Springfieldians have buried a time capsule a freak storm brings Bender, the robot from 'Futurama' from the future to kill Homer but he befriends him instead. Other Futurama characters then appear and point out that they must kill Bart because, due to the time capsule, he has given rise to mutant rabbits which will destroy New New York. The answer is for the Simpsons to go into the future and round up the mutants and send them into space.

Broadcast 25 years after "The Simpsons" was first broadcast in 1989 and 15 years after Futurama (1999) was first broadcast in 1999.

Despite being the central character of the series, Fry has only four lines. Zoidberg, Amy, Hermes, and Scruffy each have only one line. Most of the bulk of the dialogue belongs to Bender, Leela and Professor Farnsworth while some don't have dialogue at all.

Tress MacNeille, who provides the voices of Linda and Ndnd and was a regular cast member on Futurama (1999), is not credited as a "special guest voice" like the rest of her co-stars since she's also a semi-regular cast member on Simpsonai (1989), most notably as the voice of Agnes Skinner, Brandine Spuckler and the Crazy Cat Lady, among others.

Futurama (1999) has ended a year and 2 months before this episode aired (September 2013). This is the last episode of any series to feature the Futurama cast.

Matt Groening decided to do a crossover of "The Simpsons" and Futurama (1999) to celebrate "The Simpson's" 25th anniversary.

Frank Welker who plays Nibbler in the Crossover, used to be reoccurring guests in The Simpsons as animal vocal effects in the 90s. Due to his vocal strains near the early 2000s, he asked for a raise and have Dan Castellaneta to fill in for the animal voices. After 14-15 years, he returns to being credited guest star for The Simpsons as his Futurama (1999) character, Lord Nibbler.

See also Šeimos bičas: The Simpsons Guy (2014), another FOX crossover involving Simpsonai (1989).

In this episode Bart states that his birthday is February 23rd.

Originally, Bender was sent back through time to kill Bart, not Homer.

In the last scene Lrrr says "Perhaps the one of you that is female should talk to her." Shortly after, both Kang and Kodos go to talk to Ndnd. Kang and Kodos were established as sisters during Treehouse '96.

This episode takes place in 2014 and 3014.

The algorithm to decypher the 2nd alien language in Futurama is written inside Bender's head.

This the second crossover Simpsons episode. First one was The Star Is Burns (1995) with the Critic.

The first mutant rabbit is born out of an egg that looks & opens like the eggs in the Alien movie franchise.

Two of the mutant rabbits are drawn as Matt Groening's characters Binky and Bongo from his "Life in Hell" comic strip. Bongo writes "Crossovers Are Hell" on the side of a building.

    I don't know what i expected, being a very dedicated Futurama fan i looked forward to this a lot it was my understanding it would be like an hour long like a movie.

    This episode was amazing, i loved bender in this i loved all the references even seeing Seymour still waiting, but it felt way too rushed i feel very cheated on what this could have been it was amazing but so rushed and short, i don't know what to say about it it just felt rushed thats all i can say, the relationship bender and homer had was the best part of the episode and the ending where bender instead of going into back to the future, decided to wait it out was exactly as i'd imagine bender acting and true to who he is, all in all i highly recommend it to any futurama fan i only hope futurama can come back, i would have given it a solid 10 if it didn't feel so rushed it was over just like that.

    I loved the episode, it was really nice to see all that wonderful characters all together, even more after Futurama cancellation (please bring it back!!). It spent very fast, it would have been better to make a special episode lasting one hour like The Simpson Guy was. A crossover with Futurama deserved it, and you'd have had more time to develop a plot more rich, less rushed I think IMO. The scene where Homer feeds Bender with beer and stays looking at him seems to me a proud and tender last glimpse from creators to their loved creature what is over now... wonderful and emotive... Thank you guys. Don't forget Futurama!!!

    Simpsorama is a fantastic Simpsons episode with a very well written storyline and a ton of hilarious scenes.I was completely entertained from start to finish,and I know people say that crossovers are usually cheesy and mediocre ways of bringing two different franchises together,but this certainly wasn't.I am a huge fan of both the Simpsons and Futurama,they are both created by Matt Groening and the humour is very similar so it didn't feel like they were bringing two shows together that have little in common.It was truly magical seeing characters such as Homer and Bender interact and I have high hopes that they make more Simpsorama's in the future,I would be perfectly fine if they wanted to make one every year,the same way they do with Treehouse of Horror,it would be a great way to keep Fry and the gang alive and it would be something cool and different for the Simpsons to do.Simpsorama goes by very quickly and a lot of Futurama characters don't get enough dialogue,so I would really like to see more,as this is certainly a highlight of the twenty sixth season.

    Some very familiar faces swing by when Bender and the rest of the Planet Express crew travel back in time to stop the Simpsons from destroying the future.

    After Family Guy's crossover in September, some people were wondering about the Futurama crossover with The Simpsons. Some say it'll be better then Family Guy's or not good, considering that it's now cool to hate new Simpsons, I do have my own criticisms of the show but they do put some effort into the stories and jokes in some new ones. After two months of waiting since the season premiere of The Simpsons, the crossover was okay. The writing was good and I did get a few laughs out of some jokes. Though this might would've worked as a Halloween segment. The character that pretty much stood out the most in the crossover was Bender and his little relationship with Maggie was funny. Some of the easter eggs were good too such as Fry's dog. The Kang and Kodos scene with Lur and Ndnd was shoehorned in just to give the two green aliens some screen time despite that they share no importance to the plot. It would be better if it were maybe a space invasion with the twi alien species. Same would go to the character Hendonismbot, shoehorned in for no valid reason.

    The character designs for the Futurama character look very out of proportion, some look very stretchy and flat whereas in their own show they look like designs you see in The Simpsons. If I were to choose the two crossovers I choose Family Guy's, what makes that better then this is because the plot was just a whole satire take on the criticism of Family Guy being a 'rip off' of The Simpsons despite that FG's style has been very different and raunchy since its comeback in 2005. It's Okay, but not the best episode I've seen and not the best crossover I've seen.

    Also Ralph Wiggum dying in 2017 because of a plaque seen at the end? I don't think we'll see another kill off of a Simpsons character and I hope we won't see it as some tired out running trend, the kill off they did for Krusty's dad was just a total meh and was over-hyped by everyone on social media and the media itself.

    Starts off kinda bad very bad, there are some terrible jokes and weird pacing. But then things pick up when you see the Futurama crew and its pretty good.

    Made me shed a tear when they show Fry's dog Seymour.

    This does contain 2 of my most favorite shows of all time and is definitely better then the Simpson Family Guy crossover. This does have a nice plot to it and I did like all those little Bart gremlins that Homer kept killing lol. I also did like it that Homer meets Fry and both Homer and Fry don't have very high IQ's yet Fry was able to defeat a race of alien brains. This crossover has happened in the comic books too. Also what would've made this more interesting is what if Mr. Burns and Mom the two main villains of the Simpsons and Futurama teamed up to take over both the Simpsons universe and Futurama universe. That would've been awesome and both villains are awesome and funny. All in all this crossover deserves a fair score. 8 out 10.
