the late philip j. fry
the writing team came up with the idea for this episode when they were planning the three plot lines for "anthology of interest ii". as the idea developed they eventually had so much material for it that they broke it out as a separate episode. the reason the concept was originally under consideration for the "what if..." scenario was that when groening and cohen originally created "futurama" they decided there would not be any time travel; however they changed their mind and decided to go forward with the idea. the writers did not want to create a situation that would leave fans wondering why the planet express crew could not simply travel through time on a regular basis. for this purpose they chose to have it occur unintentionally during a supernova as that was deemed to be a suitably rare occurrence. "futurama" has returned to the theme of time travel twice since; in "", although the cause of time travel is different, and in "the late philip j. fry", which involves a time machine that can only travel forwards in time – to specifically avoid creating a paradox.
