Futurama (1999)

The Simpsons' sci-fi cousin packs its future with throwaway inventions, alien billboards and background signs, some of them written in the show's own invented alphabets for viewers patient enough to decode them. Bender, Zoidberg and Professor Farnsworth each have a dozen catchphrase-ready lines an episode, and the writers fold real science jokes into the mix for anyone who catches them. It has come back more than once, most recently on Hulu, which renewed it for further seasons, so there is a lot to get through. The original run is the place to start.
