30th century in pop culture
For the sole reason of being the last century of a millennium, it is viewed as a background for a pivotal point in future history. The next turn of the millennium has a special appeal to science fiction writers, as evidenced in the name of Mystery Science Theater 3000.
The TV show Futurama takes place in the year 3000. The comic book series Legion of Super-Heroes takes place 1000 years in the future, so the majority of its stories to date occur in the 30th century. The show was also made by 30th Century Fox.
The thirtieth century will be the century in which all the figures central to events of and stories written in the year 3000 will be born and grow up, and in which the events that lead immediately up to key situations in 3000 will occur.
