Bender

1928 in soviet Russia two young russian writers Ilya Ilf and Yevgeny Petrov wrote a novel "12 chairs". The novel tells the story of a former nobleman Ippolit Matveyevich Vorobyaninov who lost his family jewels during the Russian Revolution. A charmant con-man named Ostap Bender convinces him to go looking for the treasure. The novel was a great success and was adapted into a movie in 1971.

In 1999 the American TV channel Fox aired the first episode of the animated series "Futurama". The series was created by Matt Groening, the creator of "The Simpsons".
