Futurama’s 14th season is finally over — and the show is not done yet. The season finale, “Final Ending: The Last Conclusion,” became available to stream this morning, making all ten episodes available to watch at once.
The animated sci-fi sitcom premiered in early August and wrapped today, Sept. 28, on Hulu. The finale’s title promised an ending, but the show is actually heading somewhere else entirely.
The Season That Wrapped
The 14th season brought back space pirates, lab-grown meats and a sexy scam or two. It also saw the return of Dr. Zoidberg’s lost love — a twist that, per the show’s own marketing, nobody saw coming until they were told about it just now.
The season’s official description reads: “The future is about to get a whole lot stranger! It’s a non-stop onslaught of swaggering space pirates, lab-grown meats, sexy scams… plus the shocking return of Dr. Zoidberg’s lost love! You didn’t see that coming, prior to being told about it just now!”
Where to Stream It
Every episode of Futurama, from Season 1 through the 14th-season finale, is available to stream with a Hulu subscription. The service has been the home of the show since its 11th season in 2023, after the show’s second cancellation in 2013.
New viewers can sign up for the basic plan with ads for $11.99 per month. The ad-free tier costs $18.99 per month.
The Finale’s Title Was a Trick
“Final Ending: The Last Conclusion” sounds like a goodbye. It is not. The show is moving forward, just in a different format.
Instead of a traditional 15th season, Futurama is doing three extended “XXXL-sized” specials. The first of those will debut on Hulu starting with a Christmas-themed episode in 2027.
So the “final ending” was a joke. The show is simply taking a break before its next batch of episodes.
The Cast Remains Intact
The voice cast is unchanged for the upcoming specials. Billy West voices Fry, Professor Farnsworth, Dr. Zoidberg and Zapp Brannigan. John DiMaggio is Bender. Katey Sagal is Leela. Lauren Tom is Amy Wong. Phil LaMarr is Hermes Conrad. David Herman is Scruffy. Maurice LaMarche is Kif Kroker. Tress MacNeille is Mom.
What the Announcement Actually Means
The specials format is a notable shift. Rather than a standard weekly schedule, Futurama is treating its next run as three standalone events.
That could mean a few things for fans:
- More time between episodes
- Episodes that run longer than usual
- A Christmas-themed special that gives the show a holiday presence
The Christmas special in 2027 means the wait will be long. But the show has survived cancellations before, and this is the approach it has taken.

What Fans Should Do Next
The full season is available now. The specials arrive in 2027. The Christmas special gives fans a date to mark.
For now, the binge-watch is open. The future, as Futurama likes to remind us, is stranger than anyone expected.
