Futurama:

 
Sky1 HD is proud to offer sponsorship of the hugely successful ‘Futurama'. This is an exclusive opportunity that gives a brand the chance to sponsor every episode for a 3 month period.

Futurama, on Sky 1 HD, is an American animated science fiction sitcom created by The Simpsons' Matt Groening and developed by Groening and David X. Cohen. The series follows the adventures of a late 20th-century New York City pizza delivery boy, Philip J. Fry, who after being unwittingly cryogenically frozen for one thousand years, finds employment at Planet Express; an interplanetary delivery company in the retro-futuristic 31st century. The series was envisioned by Groening in the 1990s while working on The Simpsons, later bringing Cohen aboard to develop storylines and characters to pitch the show to Fox.
