30th century in 20th and 21st century pop culture

---

Because it is the last century of a millennium, the year 3000 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.

• 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 comic series Archie Comics occasionally features Archie and his friends in the year 3000. These stories are always called Archie 3000

• Busted, a British pop group, had a song named Year 3000 in which "not much has changed, but they live underwater".

• 2927 was the year Professor Hubert Farnsworth created the first ever fully functioning robot on the show Futurama. These kinds of robots (all robots) became the cause of global warming in 3002

• 2966 is the year for the story "The Escapist 2966" (included in Michael Chabon Presents the Amazing Adventures of the Escapist, Volume 2. (2004) ISBN 1593071728.) In this story, written by Stuart Moore and illustrated by Steve Conley, the struggle between good and evil continues, but with aliens and robots joining in, on both sides. One new development will be the creation of robot cats with advanced Artificial Intelligence. Also, the one-thousandth Super Bowl game, Super Bowl M, is scheduled for this year.

• 2990s: The Badoon are at war with the Earth and its solar system colonies. The events were depicted in the Guardians of the Galaxy comic book by Marvel Comics.

• The R-2000 Millennium Bug may happen on December 31, 2999.
  • The TV show Futurama takes place 1000 years in the future with the first episode taking place on Tuesday December 31, 2999 (with a few scenes at the start taking place on the same date in 1999). It then continues into the year 3000, and subsequently the early 31st century. 20th Century Fox uses a variation of their logo at the end of this show, reading "30th Century Fox Television".
  • The character Neo Queen Serenity in popular girls and boys anime and manga Sailor Moon is queen of the 30th Century Crystal Tokyo the new Silver Millennium, her daughter Chibiusa travels back in time from this time period to 1990s Tokyo.
  • The Australian TV show The Girl from Tomorrow begins in the year 3000, and the main character and villain, which is from the year 2500, travel to the year 1990. In Tomorrow's End of the series 1990 is replaced by 1992.
  • In the Japanese TV series Mirai Sentai Timeranger and its American cognate Time Force, although most of the action actually takes place in the year 2000, the majority of the main characters are from the year 3000.
  • In Doctor Who the 30th century features the decline of the Earth Empire, as seen in the television serial The Mutants and the Virgin New Adventures novel Original Sin. Earth consists of "grey cities linked by grey highways across a grey desert", with the better-off living in floating Overcities (called "Sky Cities" in The Mutants).
