Good news if you’ve been waiting for new Futurama episodes: the entire season 13 arrives September 15th on Hulu! According to Deadline, which confirmed the release schedule earlier this week, all ten episodes will drop at once.

This marks a change from previous seasons, which rolled out weekly. But Hulu promises the new season delivers its classic chaos.

Expect Bender’s antics to spiral, complications in Fry’s love life, and even a volcanic threat. Longtime fans (who’ve followed the Planet Express crew since the show’s debut) may also witness Dr. Zoidberg in an unexpected situation. The series aims to channel the binge-worthy energy fans love.

No need to wait between episodes this time!


Release date of every Futurama Season 13 episode

Mark your calendars for Monday, September 15th, at 8 p.m. ET. That is when the new Futurama season hits screens. Hulu will drop all ten episodes at once for binge-watchers. Meanwhile, FXX will air the first two episodes that same night and release two more each week for fans who prefer spacing things out.

Interesting shift from Hulu, though.

They’re ditching the slower rollout used for Seasons 11 and 12. Feels like a nod to how we binge shows these days. Guess they’re betting fans will polish off this season faster than Bender downs a six-pack of Olde Fortran Malt Liquor.


What to expect from Season 13?

If you thought earlier Futurama comebacks were unpredictable, season 13 pushes boundaries further. A sneak peek shows Bender dodging mandatory sensitivity training, which is typical behavior for the robot.

He reappears noticeably taller, claiming a 40% height increase!

But his entrance goes badly: he hits his head on a doorframe and blurts out using "D-Roids" to explain the growth. Professor Farnsworth’s shocked reaction? He calls him a "nincombot." The season promises more chaos.

Fry deals with a rival for Leela’s affection, Dr. Zoidberg gets tangled in an alien plot, and an unstable volcano endangers their world. Based on past seasons, fans can expect outrageous humor alongside genuine character moments that sneak up on you. That balance has always set Futurama apart, right?


Why does this season feel like a big deal?

Beyond the twists, Futurama's latest release proves the show isn't just coasting on nostalgia. Data from Nielsen shows it landed in 2024's Top 10 Streaming Originals, so we get real numbers backing it up.

This animated series has survived cancellations, network jumps, and revivals, yet somehow keeps its spirit alive.

The original voice cast (John DiMaggio, Billy West, Katey Sagal, and others) all returned. Behind the scenes, creators Matt Groening and David X. Cohen still run things with Ken Keeler and Claudia Katz. That consistency explains why the show feels exactly like Futurama fans remember it.

The revival hits like a time capsule cracking open for fans who caught the original run in 1999. The same chaotic charm remains: a booze-fueled robot, a lobster physician whose diagnoses should come with hazard pay, and that hapless delivery boy in a world a thousand years out of his depth.

No need to hunt down reruns or dust off old DVDs. Just queue up the stream, and let Planet Express haul you back to the future you remember!
