''[[Futurama]]'' was created by [[Matt Groening]], and developed jointly with [[David X. Cohen]]. Though, Groening had previously created '''''{{w|The Simpsons}}''''', the most popular and long running animated sitcom ever. Thus, it is only natural that ''Futurama'' would include references to ''The Simpsons'' occasionally within the show (not to mention, owning the copyright means not having to license material). ''The Simpsons'', too, has referenced ''Futurama'' many times. Following is a complete list of connections between ''Futurama'' and ''The Simpsons''.
==Crew==
There have been a number of people who work on both ''The Simpsons'' and ''Futurama'':
===Voices===
*[[Dan Castellaneta]], who plays Homer Simpson (among others) on the Simpsons, played the [[Robot Devil]] on Futurama
*[[Nancy Cartwright]] was credited for a soundbyte of Bart Simpson's line "Eat my shorts!" which was said by a doll on the garbage meteor in [[A Big Piece of Garbage]]
*[[Stephen Hawking]] has appeared on both shows, playing himself.
*[[Frank Welker]], who plays Nibbler and many other animals on Futurama, has also played many animals on the Simpsons, including Santa's Little Helper.
*[[Tress MacNeille]] who voices characters such as [[Hattie McDoogal]] and [[Ndnd]] also plays Agnes Skinner and Jimbo Jones on the Simpsons.
*[[Hank Azaria]] who voices characters such as Chief Wiggum and Moe Szyslak also voiced the character of [[Harold Zoid]].
