"Third run" is the broadcast run of Futurama following the show's second cancellation. The first episode of the third run was released on July 24, 2023.

The third run follows the second run after a gap of 10 years, filled only with a radioplay and a crossover with another animated show. During the hiatus, Futurama's production company, 20th Century Fox was acquired along with the studio and entertainment assets of its parent company, 21st Century Fox, by The Walt Disney Company in 2019, while its former broadcaster of the first run, remained under the Fox Corporation ownership, led by Rupert Murdoch. This led to the reorganization of Fox Television Animation to "20th Television Animation" in September 2020, which now appears in the Futurama ending credits as "30th Television Animation."

History
