Disenchantment Theory: Is The Netflix Series Set In The Future?

  • Could Matt Groening's new series Disenchantment actually be set right before Futurama? Subscribe to our channel: goo.gl/ho3Hg6
    Check out "10 Times The Simpsons Predicted The Future" from our friends at CBR: • 10 Times The Simpsons ...
    With the recent release of Matt Groening’s newest show Disenchantment, expectations were high and the hope of a Futurama cameo even higher. There has been a giant, Bender shaped hole in the hearts and TV schedules of Futurama fans ever since the show was cancelled years ago, and again when it was removed from Netflix last year. But with Disenchantment, a classically Groening send up and simultaneous tribute to the fantasy genre, the hope was re-ignited that there might be some cross over between the two shows. And there is actually some evidence to prove that Dreamland, the fictional medieval city in which Disenchantment takes place, could very well belong to the same universe as Futurama! With a mysterious blimp in the first episode, fans began to speculate that there was more to these Dark Ages than meets the eye, and that Dreamland could actually have been built from the ruins of New York City, after it was destroyed by flying saucers in Bender’s Big Score. They wonder if the rest of the world remained in tact, but because of the influence of religion, Dreamland and the future site of New New York remained behind the rest of the developing world. After all, all we have seen in Disenchantment is Dreamland, and nothing outside of its walls so far. It’s possible that the blimp is trying to tell us something much bigger, and that Groening is using the Dark Ages theme as a way to make a political statement about religion versus technology!

    Futurama was one of my favorite shows, easily my favorite mature animated comedy, and now watching Disenchantment I have faith in the continuation of this kick ass universe. There doesn't have to be a full crossover. The simple quick sight of Fry, Bender, and Professor Farnsworth is an easy, quick, confermation of them taking place in the same universe(s). I personally don't need anymore (but wouldn't mind it) to make me happy and content with these two shows sharing a universe. Futurama, one of the best. Disenchantment, a kick ass prequel/sequel to it. Love 'em both!

    OR Disenchantment could be a high tech role-playing game that the Planet Express gang happen to like playing while off-duty.

    Ok I might seem crazy but read this if you know both shows
    Elfo has a crush on bean and in one episode of disenchantment bean says "i like this but as a friend* after eating a elfs leg the joke was to make it seem like she was eating elfo
    But in futureama fry has a crush on lela and lela always denies his confessions until the last and final epesode
    Lucy is like bender get this
    Lucy is non human like bender
    Lucy is a awful AWfull example for bean
    LIKE BENDER
    So my concusion is
    ELFO=FRY
    BEAN=LELA
    LUCY=BENDER

      I get what you mean about the similarities they kinda got but what I love about the show it gives me the nostalgia from watching futurama just in a different time and their own thing its neat and I wanna see more
