Neutopia

"Neutopia" is the one hundred and eighth episode of Futurama, the twentieth of the sixth production season and the first of the eighth broadcast season. It is scheduled to air 23 June, 2011, with "Benderama" immediately following its airing. Seeing as "The Futurama Holiday Spectacular" was broadcast between the two seasons as a holiday special, "Neutopia" could be considered the season premiere.

Story
We encounter an alien that does not understand the concept of 'gender' and so when it meets the crew it goes about conducting experiments such as altering their own genders.

Production
On 28 February, 2011, Comedy Central released two promotional pictures for "Neutopia" in celebration of the show's 10 million likes on.

Countdown to Futurama began releasing promotional material for the episode in May 2011. It has so far released six items: a clip featuring the Planet Express crew members with swapped genders on 4 May, concept art of a female Dr. Zoidberg on 5 May, a promotional picture featuring Amy, Fry, and Leela sleeping together on 6 May, concept art of the Planet Express ship dressed as an airplane on 7 May, part of the storyboard showing the crew make a photo shoot on 8 May, and concept art of a female Scruffy on 14 May. On June 16, a video clip from the episode was released on io9, featuring humans (including the PE crew) on a planet, discussing the concept of gender with a rock alien.
