Hulu Switches ‘Futurama' Season 13 From Weekly to Binge Release; Shares Premiere Date and First Look Photos (EXCLUSIVE)
Hulu is switching to an all-at once binge for 'Futurama' as it returns in September for Season 13. Variety has learned that all 10 episodes from the new season will premiere at the same time on September 15 at 5 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. ET. That's a switch from most recent two seasons of the revival, as Hulu released Season 11 in 2023 and Season 12 in 2024 on a weekly basis. 'Futurama' originally ran on broadcast, via Fox, for its first four seasons, from 1999 to 2003; it was then revived on several direct-to-DVD specials from 2007 to 2009, and then via Comedy Central between 2010 to 2013. The Hulu re-revival began in July 2023.

Hulu noted that per Nielsen, 'Futurama' was among the top 10 streaming originals of 2024. Hulu announced in November 2023 that 'Futurama' had been renewed for two more seasons, taking it through Season 14 in 2026. (Yes, there's plenty of confusion about season counts for 'Futurama,' thanks to both those DVD releases, and then Comedy Central's move to split seasons into multiple sub-seasons. In the Comedy Central days, 'seasons' were sometimes stretched over multiple years and cycles.) Here's the show's Season 13 synopsis: 'Bender is rampaging out of control! A volcano is about to explode! Fry confronts a rival for Leela's love! And Dr. Zoidberg is rising up to heaven?! The excitement might be too much! You've been warned… it's an all new season of 'Futurama'!' 'Futurama,' from 20th Television Animation (a part of Disney Television Studios), stars John DiMaggio, Billy West, Katey Sagal, Tress MacNeille, Maurice LaMarche, Lauren Tom, Phil Lamar and David Herman are all back. The show was created by Matt Groening and developed by Groening and David X. Cohen. Executive producers include Groening, Cohen, Ken Keeler and Claudia Katz. Animation is provided by Rough Draft Studios. 'Futurama' has won two primetime Emmys for outstanding animated program. The logline: 'Despite its far-future setting, the show is renowned for its satiric commentary on life in the present. The series follows Philip J. Fry (Billy West), a New York City pizza delivery boy, who accidentally freezes himself in 1999 and gets defrosted in the year 3000. In this astonishing New New York, he befriends hard-drinking robot Bender (John DiMaggio), and falls in love with cyclops Leela (Katey Sagal). The trio find work at the Planet Express Delivery Company, founded by Fry's doddering descendant, Professor Hubert Farnsworth. Together with accountant Hermes Conrad, assistant Amy Wong, and alien lobster Dr. John Zoidberg, they embark on thrilling adventures that take them to every corner of the universe.'
