The pop culture references aren't interwoven into a story. Everything revolves around the theme decided for an episode, like cryptocurrency or something.

There arent events from the universe or born of characters emotion... it's just this linear march forward where the writers have x amount of time to cram in jokes surrounding a certain topic.

It's pretty pathetic. I could write better Futurama.

Can you. I'd love some more original Futurama.

Like when bender lost his arms and became a folk singer
