Futurama coloring pages are featuring Fry, Leela, Bender, Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth, Amy Wong, Dr. John A. Zoidberg, Hermes Conrad, Zapp Brannigan, Kif Kroker, Mom, Nibbler and other characters from Futurama animated film. Try to guess who is who.
"Futurama," that whimsical sci-fi romp of an animated series, is a curious concoction of robot insurrection, squid-headed bureaucrats and occasional space-time paradoxes, tailor-made for those who've ever dreamed of being both entertained and vaguely existentially distressed. It’s the sort of show that presents advanced philosophical concepts disguised as casual jokes, often leaving the mature viewer with a sense of delighted confusion and the younger viewer asking what in Zoidberg’s name just happened. It might not be advisable for the truly tiny humans (unless your toddler is the sort to ponder Schrödinger's cat at nap time), but for older kids with a penchant for interstellar mayhem, it offers lessons they didn’t even know they were learning.
Consider, if you will, the show’s unapologetic encouragement of creative thinking. Set in a universe where heads of state are kept in jars and a one-eyed mutant captain pilots a delivery spaceship with the same regard for safety as a pirate on a pogo stick, "Futurama" invites kids to not just think outside the box but to wonder why the box exists at all and whether it might double as a handy escape pod. It sparks the kind of imagination that might inspire someone to question the laws of physics—and then gleefully ignore them. A young mind can only benefit from being exposed to a show where theoretical physics and the absurdities of everyday life meld in perfect, chaotic harmony.
