Well, it's not the second middle-ages, so forget what I said. Though I actually have to disagree a bit with the showrunner, I see no reason why Dreamland couldn't be New York, that's the logical conclusion to make the easter egg fit

Because of how they word it, it seems that he appreciates the fan theories still, and it's really the only way to explain the Fry Easter egg, so I'll go with the Second Middle Ages placement

I'm pretty sure Futurama gives a date for the Second Coming of Jesus? If so, that's where I'll put the Family Guy cutaway gag

2443 I believe, yes

Edit: Double checked, date's correct

I know that Bill Cipher had a canonical appearence in The Simpsons

Bill Cypher is shown in the Simpsons as one of Loki's forms, so I'm gonna assume any other appearance of him in The Simpsons is just Loki

If the episode takes place in the exact year it premiered, 2014, and the future is 1000 years exactly, this wouldn't align with the initial finale of the show, which premiered a year prior

Is there anything wrong with the episode taking place after the finale? I haven't finished Futurama, so there may be some contradictions I'm unaware of

Time has been frozen for exactly 10 years since the show initially ended according to the first episode season 8

Does the future have to be exactly 1000 years after the Simpsons events in the crossover? If so, I can always just move that episode to later in the timeline, though I'll definitely think about including Futurama

Well I just rewatched the episode a bit and Fry's dog Seymour appears to be still alive (despite the time points not really matching considering everyone in the Futurama segments still have average human skin colors and not all yellow ones)

I guess I can make the episode earlier… (getting Futurama in is such a hastle, lol)

Also considering that in the end of the episode Bender stays in the past in the family's basement and is seen in a later episode would imply that he's now in the past, which doesn't appear to match with how he's still in the future and frozen in time along with everyone else

Guess either the episode goes earlier, or the future segments aren't 1000 years in the future

I usually assume these things sort themselves out off-screen.

Family Guy and American Dad! did a crossover special.
Beavis and Butt-Head had a cameo in Family Guy.
South Park and Simpsons had crossovers.
Daria cameoed in Beavis and Butt-Head.
Homer Simpson appears in a few Duckman episodes.
Jay Sherman from The Critic is a judge in "A Star is Born" (Simpsons).
Thurgood Stubbs from The PJs appears in a Simpsons episode, and in one episode there's a milk carton with Fry's face on it. Futurama also had a few instances of the PJ manhole cover appearing.
Dr. Katz appears on South Park, with the same voice actor (they also did Sesame Street and Muppets, and due to the nature of the show they could very well be canon, but that opens up a whole other can of worms).
King of the Hill has crossed over with The Simpsons, and has numerous references to a few other shows on the timeline

Thanks!
