Alienese

Alienese, the alien written language seen throughout the show, was created as an in-joke to see how fast fans could decipher it.

The first language, a simple substitution cipher, was solved almost instantly.

The second language is much more complicated, but was solved thanks to the determination of Futurama's audience.
