Reaction Paper (Futurama)

Futurama is an American series that tells about a man who was frozen for a long time and suddenly found himself in the future.  He was then assigned to be a delivery boy by the Fate Assignment and did not like it, so he looked for all the means to escape the task for him.

Of course, aside from not liking the task, he also found it hard to cope on a new environment, a new environment that almost seemed a new world to him.  In this setting, there are a lot of innovations, technological stuff and scientific advancements that he could not imagine.

This comedy sitcom apparently is created to make us think the possibilities of Science and Technology. Technology advances every day, and one day we might just wake up that it has completely dominated our lives. Some things that were shown in the sitcom are happening now and some are yet to come.  The question left is, can science even decide the fate of anyone in the future?
