[[WMG:Leela is illegitimate.]]
Her parents seem to be married now because of the same family name, but maybe they weren't married when Leela was born. Hence her being called a "lovechild" in the song.

[[WMG: Professor Farnsworth is annoyed by the fact Fry's his direct ancestor.]]
Pretty much every time he's involved in time travel and he acknowledged it's possible [[OnceDoneNeverForgotten he makes some crack at Fry being his own grandfather]]. However it's usually only him, with the one exception outside of "Roswell That Ends Well" being Nibbler mentioning it as the explanation behind his chosen one status. The reason the Professor always brings it up is that by being his own grandfather, Fry is the direct ancestor of Farnsworth rather than just his ancestor's brother and responsible for his existence as well. [[Recap/FuturamaS6E5TheDuhVinciCode He's shown to be embarrassed at their relationship]] [[Recap/FuturamaS6E23AllThePresidentsHeads and sometimes downplays their relationship]], so he brings it up the most out the Planet Express crew due to the embarrassment Fry's as much his (dozens of greats) grampa as he is his (slightly less dozens of great) great-uncle.

[[WMG: We'll eventually get a time travel episode set during the period Fry was frozen.]]
So far with time travel episodes we've explored [[Recap/FuturamaS6E7TheLatePhillipJFry the future]], Fry's time and historical eras. Pretty much the only time period we've never got much time to spend with was centuries in between the world Fry left behind and flashbacks of a young Farnsworth. It might be interesting to have an episode where the characters go to a time in the 3rd millennium where they don't have the "modern day, but ''in the future''" them and can be more out there. For example they could do a homage to ''Film/AKidInKingArthursCourt'' but in the medieval period we see while Fry's frozen, which could end with them mucking things up [[BeenThereShapedHistory and cause those castles to be shot down]] [[RoswellThatEndsWell like they've caused the Roswell incident]]. And while [[Recap/FuturamaS8E6IKnowWhatYouDidNextXmas they recently destroyed Farnsworth's time machine]], he still has a double from the version of himself he crushed.

Since Halloween was never referenced in both the show's runs with the closest the show ever getting to having a true HalloweenEpisode (The Honking) not mentioning anything about Halloween aside from the werewolf symbolism, it is likely that Halloween, as a tradition, no longer exists in the future. This can be explained by the existence of real aliens in the lore of the show. It is likely that Halloween no longer exists because the holiday received major criticism and backlash from visiting aliens due to them being stereotyped as Halloween costumes, decorations, and animatronics during that day. As a consequence, Halloween was considered outlawed, though some vestigial elements of Halloween, such as the presence of zombies, vampires, werewolves (now called werecars), and ghosts (only in robot form) still remain in human culture well into the 31st century.

* Hedonism Robot was developed by a very rich [[AnythingThatMoves and very perverted]] member of nobility(or possibly a past king of some past empire), created as a pleasure bot. Of course, it's just as possible that Hedonism Bot is said perverted member of nobility, who's disposed of his organic parts to better pleasure himself(the human part that Hedonism Bot expunged was his now-useless human brain).

* Jossed. At the time of this writing, it's August 2023, and there's no ''Futurama: The Game'' remake. The closest we got is a ''VideoGame/{{Fortnite}}'' collab ([[WeirdCrossover of all things]]), and a fan is currently developing a global mod for its sister game ''VideoGame/TheSimpsonsHitAndRun'', so we have that to look forward to.
