It had some pretty funny moments, and the universe being trapped in an ever expanding warehouse is pretty Futurama, but I was pretty disheartened when I saw the name of the episode and when I saw it was just about Amazon. I hope not all of them are current event things.

They did a ton of current events humor/episodes over the years. There's constant pop culture references that won't land with anyone born past 2000s in the older episodes, characters, etc. It's always been part of the show.

But it wasn't so often the central theme of the episode. We've had 4 out of 5 stories based purely around current events.
