Also, both are ambiguous with what time they’re set in: Futurama in the future, Archer likely in the 60s/70s, but both constantly referencing current events and technology.
I think archer is set up at current time, as for Futurama it is inspired by current events to make it more relatable. Though the last season (on Hulu) feels like it was done by the writers out of laziness. Not sure if they got paid less, or expected it to flop, but feels like less effort was put than usual. Though I did love the last episode, I guess because it was written by David X. Cohen and he didn’t do the same.
