Futurama has a number of "sponsors" that are generally shown as a cold opening, before the title credits. They first appeared in the second season and last in season 3's "Insane in the Mainframe", sponsors first returned in "Bender's Big Score Part 1", though this sponsor was before a commercial break. Then the sponsors as cold opening returned for the second run with "That Darn Katz!". Due to time constraints, Season 7 will not feature any "sponsored" episodes. [1]

Episode
Nobody doesn't like Molten Boron!
The singers hired to sing the tune used the incorrect "Nobody does it like Molten Boron". It was edited to take the "n" sound and put it after "does" to make the correct version.

As a trucker, I can verify that that is the correct hazmat marker. (Buddy)

  • Cash for bones may explain Amy's missing rib(s) in "Rebirth".
