A brainchild of Simpsons creator Matt Groening, Futurama launched itself into homes across the galaxy in Spring 1999. Employing the same quick wit and visual humor that has made The Simpsons one of the most successful shows in television history, Futurama (despite its early cancellation in August 2003) maintains its own loyal cult following The Futurama (Season 2) DVD offers a number of hilarious episodes including "Brannigan Begin Again" in which Zapp Brannigan begins working for Planet Express. Convincing Fry and Bender to conspire against Leela, he's elected the ship's new captain, but is forced to put Leela back in charge when he can't handle the situation Other notable episodes from Season 2 include "Xmas Story" in which Christmas involves the destructive exploits of an evil robot Santa Claus (John Goodman) who punishes all people and "Raging Bender" in which Bender joins a the Ultimate Robot Fighting League (URFL), learning that it's really fixed - just like a modern day form of "fighting" entertainment Season 2 features a new and more complex proprietary alien language which can be found on various signs and billboards throughout the Futurama galaxy Below is a list of episodes included on the Futurama (Season 2) DVD: Episode 14 (I Second That Emotion) Air Date: 09-25-1999
