    2. I believe Tonio is right, that the image is from The Simpsons, (close to Futurama). What makes it double tricky is that BraveStarr also imagined a digital Big Ben clock face! Crazy....

  3. I remember seeing that digital Big Ben image (aka #7) in the futuristic Simpsons episode in which Lisa marries a British citizen. I believe it was called "Lisa's Wedding."

    Of course, it could have been used on Futurama as well since both shows were created by the same guy and used many of the same writers. However, I remember seeing it first on The Simpsons.

    #6 looks like it's from the original "V" miniseries.
