For all things Futurama
Rule 1: Don't be a jerkwad!
Rule 2: Alternate video links to be linked in a comment, below the original video.

To be fair. Old Futurama episodes first 5 seasons were also on actual topics those days, and music groups etcetera. Only difference is that today something is not fresh after 2 months in spotlight and Futurama episodes takes somewhat longer time than that to produce, especially when considering the strike last year I think it was.
I don't think that's a fair assessment. Stories in the first 5 seasons mostly had a non-current events focus, but admittedly did make references to both current and past events.
The best episodes are just interesting stories - "Parasite Lost", "Time Keeps Slippin", "Hell is Other Robots".
