Futurama

There wasn't a thread on Futurama so I decided to make one. I love it. It never gets old for me. I also hear rumors that they're bringing it back in 2008. Favorite episodes, favorite quotes or characters; post it all here.

I love that show, and I do hope they will bring it back. The characters that were most memorable to me were Professor Farnsworth and Dr. Zoidberg. And of course, who could forget Bender.

Zoidberg is awesome. I love how he's supposed to be a doctor for humans, but knows nothing about their anatomy. Plus the human anatomy poster in his office is upside down. Hah.

One of my favorite quotes from the show as a whole is when Fry says "The Sun!? Thats the hottest place on Earth!"

I love futurama!!!
Mat Groening is awesome with all his satires!
I love the mathematical humor in it, like when Farnsworth said in a competition that the judges of a quantum finish changed the outcome by measuring it (an allusion to Schrodinger's cat)
And then there's the awesome Klein Beers

Some awesome quotes for the posterity:
Amy Wong: [crying] We're trying our best!
Bender: [yelling] Your best is an idiot!

Bender: Who are you, and why should I care?

Bender: Ahhh, what an awful dream. Ones and zeroes everywhere... and I thought I saw a two.

7-11 Clerk: If for any reason you're not satisfied with our service, I hate you.

Bender: Hey. What kind of party is this? There's no booze and only one hooker.

Bender: I was God once.
God: Yes, I saw. You were doing well until everyone died.

Dr. Zoidberg: I wonder what the shroud of Turin tastes like.(best quote ever!!)

Dr. Zoidberg: Only $14.99 for a two-record set. Two records! Oh, Zoidberg, at last you're becoming a crafty consumer! Hello? I'll take eight!

Doctor Zoidberg should be venerated by all.

I love Dr. Zoidberg. And Bender. No one can't love Bender.

Dammit! Now I’m going to have to go back and watch the whole series again.

I LOVE Futurama and I still can’t believe that they cancelled that and kept “King Of The Hill” (which is a show I’ve grown to loathe)

I own all the DVD sets but I haven’t watched them in a while.

The reason I’m going to watch it again is just to see the “What-If-Machine” episode. It was the episode where Dr. Farnsworth breaks out the “What If Machine” and tells what everyones future could have been like. The “What If Machine” episode contained one of my favorite quotes at the end and I can’t for the life of me remember it.

It’s on the tip of my tongue it was something to the effect something something “If only I invented the Thinglonger”.

After that episode I was obsessed with the word “Thinglonger” for weeks.

The "what if Machine" episode is also one of my favorites. Another one is where Lila goes into a coma and Fry keeps going into her dreams to try and get her to wake up.

Yes, they're supposed to be doing several direct-to-DVD movies, which will later be cut up into episode-sized chunks and aired on Comedy Central. At least, that's how I heard it.

One of the greatest clips ever! (Click me!)

And the Benders sound cool together.

I also like the episode where Lila goes into a coma, however, my favorite is the one where Bender sells his body.


My favorite quote: (Bender speaking) "Bite my shiny metal...OH NOOO! *notices that his ass is gone*
