Futurama has had an incredible impact on pop culture – it spawned a huge number of expressions and various memes.

5. The Cyber House Rules

Bender finds out that there is an allowance for an adopted child, and adopts 12 children at once. And even though he doesn't seem to care about them at first, it's clear that the children mean a great deal to him, as he raises and educates them, albeit in his crazy, maniacal robot way.

4. The Luck of the Fryrish

The Simpsons & Meta's Threads Meme Goes Viral For All the Wrong Reasons

We were repeatedly shown that Fry and his family did not get along very well. Mom and Dad didn't care for him at all, and Fry and his older brother hated each other. Throughout the episode, we were shown Philip's relationship with his brother, and were imbued with the same antipathy for the latter as the main character. But then a few minutes at the end turned the history upside down.

Leela’s parents decide to voluntarily abandon and give her to an orphanage, so that their daughter will have a chance to grow up on the surface of the earth and not spend her whole life in the sewers with other mutants. And even on the verge of death, they refuse to tell Leela the secret of her origin, so she could feel like a full-fledged human being.
