Fan theory I have zero evidence for beyond character design:
Leela’s dad is Mr. Panucci’s mutated descendant.

October 3rd
Prompt: Bones
"Babe! Panucci's messed up our order!"
James' panicked tone carried from the kitchen to Roxy's bedroom, where she'd sloughed off her coat to hang in her closet while her boyfriend took his time setting up a nice display for their take-out dinner. It wasn't often they'd see eye to eye on what the perfect after-work meal would be - Considering James loved all things healthy and Roxy ate like a bachelor - but tonight, for some reason he'd been craving some pizza and wings, so they swung by the local joint on the way back to 2-H.
"Someone's got to try really hard to fuck up a pepperoni pizza..." The witch replied, emerging from the doorway to stand beside him, taking in the nice spread he had created for them. Two sodas - One Peppy Cola and one Peppy Cola Zero - were popped open, straws inside, while the large pizza box lay open, displaying their piping hot meal. The delicious, meaty smell coiling off the pizza's surface was enough to make Roxy salivate... And everything about the pizza looked just fine, so he turned to her boyfriend and tilted her head in confusion.
With an exaggerated sigh, he flipped open a small box beside the main one, revealing their dozen buffalo wings.
Just the sight of the wings alone made his girlfriend's stomach growl; Everything looked just fine to her.
"They're bone-in!" He cried, pointer finger flying in the direction of their appetizer as though he was accusing someone of murder. "It's such a scam - There's so much less meat!"
Roxy took a breath. She didn't understand what he was talking about at all. Wasn't a wing a wing?
Maybe I'm too accustomed to using bones in my potions... Oh! I have to remember to save them after James throws them out...
"I'm sorry, James... I'll remember to double-check the order before we leave next time." She settled on, lacing her fingers between his. "Unless you'd like to drive back and have them fix it?"
The singer shook his head, long hair sweeping back and forth to match the movement. It was so nonchalant, but had Roxy's knees threatening to buckle regardless. That, paired with the adorable pout on his lips, made her want to forgo the meal entirely and drag him over to the couch and kiss him breathless.
God, he was so adorable.
"No, it's fine..." James assured her, bringing the back of her hand to his lips before letting go and pulling out one of the two chairs for her to sit on. "We've already wasted too much of our alone time to keep worrying about it."
He waggled his eyebrows up and down as Roxy moved in front of him, sitting down as he pushed the seat in.
"So ridiculous," His girlfriend mocked, catching his eye as he moved to sit across from her. The wink he shot her sent a shiver down her spine.
-
The pair ate quickly, breaking down the parts of the day where they were separated at work while he and the band had dance practice with Mr. X and she was stuck in the writer's room with Gustavo.
Oddly enough, the ravaged chicken bones remaining on her plate reminded her of her father; It had been quite some time since they'd spoken and the creamy, ebony shade standing out from her black plastic plate reminded her of the time she and Declan had tried to use similar small bones for divination purposes.
The Somersets were witches by blood. Their set of powers was very, very far off from those of diviners. Though they'd met many back home in Duluth, neither of them were ever able to emulate their strong form of magic.
But that certainly hadn't stopped him from trying.
Declan wanted to know if the Vikings were going to make it to the Superbowl that year and that felt like too dumb of a question to ask a real diviner, so he'd busted out his copy of the family spell book and searched the index to see if any of their ancestors had a section on divine magic.
Somewhere along the family tree, a distant cousin generations back had detailed a divination ritual using similar-looking bones; When dropped onto a mat, the position in which they fell could answer a yes or no question. If they formed vertical lines, their ancestor claimed this to be a "yes" and if they fell horizontal, that formed a "no."
That felt more like chance than divination to the young witch, but her father pulled some of his stash of bones for potions and threw them on the floor of his workshop. They all landed horizontally and that year, sure enough, the Vikings didn't make the Superbowl.
But then again, they hadn't made it that far since 1977, so...
"I still find it hard to believe you don't have a bone-in or boneless wing preference," James shared, pulling her out of her head as she finished off the last bite of her pizza crust. "You're sure you don't like one over the other?"
Wiping the corners of her mouth with one of the white paper napkins she had stashed in a holder in the middle of the small table, Roxy shook her head. "Nope... As long as the flavor's good. You won't catch me complaining."
She stood now, lifting her plate from in front of her and moving in the direction of her trash bin, before doubling back and taking James' as well. "It's nice to know you like boneless though, I'll keep that in mind for the future."
For a moment, the tops of his ears turned red, a smile quirking up on his lips. "We're going to be together for a long time, right? Those are important things to know."
Roxy's foot caught on the leg of his chair as he spoke, stumbling forward and sending the two stacked plates flying across her tiled floor. "Shit!"
Everything clattered to the ground in an unpleasant cacophony of sounds; Now she had a lot more to clean up than a few dishes.
In an instant, James was at her side, checking to make sure she was okay before he bent down to pick up what she had dropped.
As he did, a small bolt of energy zapped through her brain; Something unexplainable was alerting her attention to the floor. "Wait!"
James paused, raising his hands into the air, confusion written all over his face.
The witch hardly had time to take in his cute expression. Her eyes were too busy being drawn to where the chicken bones had clattered onto the gray tile. Each one of them had fallen to the floor completely vertically.
We're going to be together for a long time, right?
Her boyfriend's words echoed in her head as she continued to stare at the bones on the ground.
There was no doubt her face was bright red; James had straightened himself up to take her flamed cheeks into his hands.
"Aw, it's okay, babe! There's nothing to be embarrassed about! I drop things all the time." Quickly, he pressed a kiss to her forehead before pulling away and gesturing to the mess she'd made. "I'll clean this up - Wanna go find something for us to watch?"
All she could do was nod, despite her fixated gaze on the bones.
Maybe I shouldn't have been so quick to dismiss this ritual...

FUTURAMA Episode 101
"SPACE PILOT 3000" By David X. Cohen & Matt Groening Transcribed by Dave,
The Neutral Planet [Over the caption December 31st 1999 a crude spaceship flies through space, cruising over and under planets and a man speaks.]
MAN (voice-over) Space. It seems to go on and on forever. But then you get to the end and the gorilla starts throwing barrels at you.
[A planet opens up and a huge gorilla starts throwing barrels at the spaceship. It dodges a few but one hits it and it explodes. The gorilla thumps its chest and "Game Over" flashes on the screen. The spaceship and gorilla isn't real and the man, called Fry, was playing an arcade game called "Monkey Fracas Jr". He is in his mid-20s, wears a red jacket and has orange hair with two distinct forks at the front. There is a little kid standing next to him. The game is against the wall in a pizzeria called Panucci's Pizza.]
FRY And that's how you play the game!
KID You stink, loser!
[Mr Panucci, a middle-aged balding man wearing a vest, leans over the counter with a pizza box.]
PANUCCI Hey, Fry. Pizza goin' out! C'mon!!
[Fry sighs, takes the pizza from him and walks out.]
[New York Street. Fry cycles past people enjoying their New Millennium Eve. A cab pulls up and he sees his girlfriend inside.]
FRY Michelle, baby! Where you going?
MICHELLE It's not working out, Fry. I put your stuff out on the sidewalk!
[Time Lapse. Fry is still on his bike getting more and more depressed.]
FRY I hate my life I hate my life I hate my life.
[Cut to: Outside Applied Cryogenics. He stops outside a building and locks up his bike. A man sneaks up behind him, cuts the chain and steals his bike.]
BIKE THIEF Happy new year!
[Applied Cryogenics. Fry steps out of the elevator on the 64th floor. He knocks on a door marked Applied Cryogenics. A sign underneath indicates No Power Failures Since 199[7]. No one opens the door so Fry goes in.]
[Cut to: Cryogenics Lab. The room is empty and there are no lights on. Strange pods about 6ft tall line one of the walls. There are a few other machines around the room and a desk and a chair in the middle of the room. Fry wipes some condensation from a window on one of the pods, revealing the face of an inanimate man inside. He turns around.]
FRY Hello? Pizza delivery for......Icy Wiener?! Aw, crud! I always thought at this point in my life I'd be the one making the crank calls! Here's to another lousy millennium.
[He unenthusiastically raises his hand and toasts.]
[Cut to: Time Square. Crowds have gathered for the countdown. 10 appears on a huge screen.]
CROWD Ten!
[Cut to: Paris. A screen on the Eiffel Tower displays 9.]
CROWD Neuf!
[Cut to: Vatican City. The Pope holds up a sign with "VIII" on it.]
CROWD Otto!
[Cut to: Egypt. Egyptians crowd around the pyramids.]
CROWD Sabaa!
[Cut to: Athens. People are gathered around the Parthelon.]
CROWD Eksi!
[Cut to: Great Wall Of China.]
CROWD Wu! [Cut to: Taj Mahal.]
CROWD Chaar!
[Cut to: African Village.]
CROWD Thathu!
[Cut to: Tokyo. A screen displays 2.]
CROWD Wu!
[From space the whole planet sees in the new millennium.]
CROWD One!
[Cut to: Cryogenics Lab. Fry unenthusiastically blows a party blower and starts losing his balance on the chair. It tips back. Fry waves his arms around trying to regain his balance. As he falls he doesn't see the shadow of a small creature under the desk. The chair tips back and Fry falls off it and rolls backwards into cryogenic freezer number 40. The dial on the machine automatically sets itself for 1000 years.]
FRY What the?
[He looks around and screams. In a flash he is frozen in time.]
[Time Lapse.Days and nights and eventually years pass � la The Time Machine as he stays locked in the freezer. Civilisation is destroyed by aliens twice until eventually huge buildings spring up around Applied Cryogenics. The timer stops 1000 years later and the door opens. Fry is unfrozen. Initially disorientated, he stumbles around and notices something to his right. He presses his face against a large window and stares in awe.]
FRY My God! It's the future. My parents, my co-workers, my girlfriend. I'll never see any of them again. Yahoo!
[Opening Credits. Caption: In Color.]
Yeah no as a mobile user I do, in fact, feel awful for you guys
It doesn't mean that I won't retaliate tho

Wake up, Mr. Fry. Where am I? You're in the good old year 2000 working here at Panucci's Pizza. You fell asleep on the job. Well, that sounds like me, but I thought I got frozen. Wasn't I in the future? No, you only "dreamed" you were in the year 3000. So I'm really back? Well, that's exactly what I wanted, I guess.

Disenchantment, disenppointment
There's nothing quite like the feeling when something you've been looking forward to for a while now, turns out to be a massive let down.
I'm only 3 episodes in and I'm ready to give up. I might ride it out to the end, just out of stubborn hope that it might somehow come round. But I'm not holding my breath.
I'll start with the obvious. The background and general world is gorgeous. It's amazingly well drawn and is worthy of any fantasy world. But that seems like that's where the entire mental and physical budget went. Because past that it's all downhill.
The artwork for the characters is lazy. It's just more mid era Simpsons standard. Not polished, and still basic. I know it's keeping brand familiarity, but they could stand to step it up a little to tie it in with the gorgeous scenery too. Don't get me started on the queen though. Pretty sure they just let a temp animate her. A particularly untalented temp.
The characters are all generic and flat. There's nothing endearing about them, no emotional investment. Bean is ok at best. But indecisive and insincere to the point of tedium. Elfo is pathetic. Sickeningly so. There is literally nothing redeeming about him. Dumb, needy and adds nothing but pointless complication to the adventure. Luci is just weak. It's a demon, but there's no edge, no spark, no life to it. Just a background character with about as much involvement as the generic "demon on the shoulder" for the odd decisive moment.
The voices are also lazy. Is John Dimaggio the only one cheap enough on the payroll to keep using? The king is just Mr Panucci. He was a gravelly New York pizzeria owner. It doesn't work for a king of a medieval kingdom too. You're a man with many, many voices. Use something new. Even the rest of the supplimentary cast are tired and familiar. Pretty sure it's just Kif from futurama half the time. At least throw Zap Brannigan in there, regardless of context. He's enough to make anthring funny.
On the point of funny, it's not. There hasn't been a single laugh yet. I almost smiled at a couple of clever bits, but there's been nothing properly amusing yet. I can't even remember half of what's gone on. The worst bit so far though, Bean's speech at her wedding. It was so flat and insincere, I don't know if it was meant to be a Mickey taking irony or if it was genuinely taking itself seriously.
They've just released a huge cloud of demons and evil on the world, I can't wait to see how this doesn't result in an interesting episode.

There are so many great monsters out there, (well, 3 anyway, according to Mr. Panucci) but there are only 2 monster actors I can think of who can take the silicone and latex appliances, the plastic and metal fashioned into claws and armor, the dentures, the tiny individual hairs fashioned into wigs and fur, the makeup and costumes that are all works of art in themselves, and make a wide variety of monsters come to life. The first is Boris Karloff and the second is this man, Doug Jones. Both bring such a sense of humanity, fragility, humor and realness to every character that I always feel compassion for them. These performances are as Oscar worthy as any out there. “Billy” will be available at the Hocus Pocus show opening May 18th at Sugarmynt Gallery. @sugarmyntgallery #hocuspocus #billybutcherson #dougjones #monstermovies #mrpanucci #futurama (at SugarMynt Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxX7mo0geDv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1467tx2o5ya09
