Also: every line uttered by Morbo, the newsreader.

Morbo: "Morbo can't understand his TelePrompter. He forgot how you say that letter that looks like a man with a hat."
Linda: "It's a 'T'. It goes 'tuh'."
Morbo: "Hello little man. I WILL DESTROY YOU!"

Or...

Nixon: "Hello, Morbo. How's the family?
Morbo: "Belligerent and numerous."
Nixon: "Good man! Nixon's pro-war and pro-family."

prolly inaccurate but:

"now that u need my help why do u expect me to help you when you didn't need my help when it offered it to you"
"what the hell are you talking about?"

I am so glad Ch4 are showing Futurama at 7am every morning (instead of Ri:se). It makes getting ready to go to work bearable.
Damn, it's funny.

Professor: "So that's what it would have been like if I had invented The Finglonger."

"This is one death Dr. Zoidberg won't be responsible for!"

In fact, anything Zoidberg says.

Al_Ewing, Thursday, 16 January 2003 20:46 (twenty-one years ago) link

Ditto to 'anything Zoidberg says'

The Cartoon Network is going to be showing episodes of Futurama @ 11 PM (EST) Mon-Thur - that is, unless Brak & Carl lied to me.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 16 January 2003 22:20 (twenty-one years ago) link

Listen here, my friend, I would never lie to you.

Carl, Thursday, 16 January 2003 22:23 (twenty-one years ago) link

"You're covered with bedsores!"

"Not covered.."

At its best, Futurama more than stacks up against Simpsons, but its grebtest problem is remarkable inconsistency. First half of season 1 = classic, middle half of season 2 = classic, and everything else was hit or miss. In fact, Futurama as a whole seems to have gone through the ups and downs of 13+ years of Simpsons, in only 3 years, namely an over-reliance on Bender which quickly led to an exponential increase in his jerkassocity.

Bender: Magnets screw up my inhibition unit.
Fry: So you flip out and start acting like some crazy folk singer?
Bender: Yes. [sadly] I guess a robot would have to be crazy to wanna be a folk singer ...

Robot horror flick: "Behold my system of mighty organs!"

Fry: "I need the apartment tonight. [hands him money] Go see a saucy puppet show."
Bender: "Can do!"

Amy: "So what do you think of that guy by the bar?"
Leela: "I don't know. Maybe."
Bender: "Forget it! He's gay."
Leela: "What? How can you tell?"
Bender: "I just know these things. I've got what they call 'gaydar'."
Leela: "There's no such thing."
Bender: "No? ....Ok, I've got a lock on him. Yep, he's gay!"
Amy: "Are you sure?"
Bender: "Definitely! Unless I'm getting interference from a gay weather balloon."

Fry: "Wait a second. You are a bender, right? We can get out of here if you just bend the bars!"
Bender: "Dream on skin tube! I'm only programmed to bend for constructive purposes. What do I look like? A debender?"
Fry: "Who cares what you're programmed for? If someone programmed you to jump off a bridge, would you do it?"
Bender: "I'll have to check my program. Yep!"

*sigh* I miss it already.

Zapp: Men, you're lucky men. Soon you'll all be fighting for your planet. Many of you will be dying for your planet. A few of you will be forced through a fine mesh screen for your planet. They will be the luckiest of all.

Bender: Great, we're gonna die.

Fry: And this ham gum is all bones.

Trayce, Tuesday, 3 July 2007 04:46 (sixteen years ago) link

In fact that whole episode has some great lines:

Zapp: It's the one word the robot uses more than any other. We got it from this convenient database of his 10 most frequently-used words. [He presses a button on the database and a list comes up.] Number 10, chump; number nine, chumpette; number eight, yours; number seven, up; number six, pimpmobile; number five, bite; number four, my ... [Leela gasps.] ... number three, shiny; number two, daffodil. And Bender's number one most frequently-uttered word, the word which, if uttered, will blow up this entire planet: Ass.

[Fry gasps.]

Fry: We don't have long!

Morbo: "Morbo demands an answer to the following question. If you saw
a delicious candy in the hands of a small child. Would you seize and consume it?"
John Jackson: "Unthinkable."
Jack Johnson: "I wouldn't think of it."
Morbo: "What about you Mr. Nixon? I remind you. You are under of a truth-o-scope."
Nixon: "Question is vague. You don't say what kind of candy and whether anyone is watching. In anyway I certainly wouldn't harm the child."

Morbo: Morbo wishes these stalwart nomads peace among the Dutch tulips.

Professor Farnsworth: The Devil take this predictable colon!

Pound for pound, Farnsworth is the funniest of em all.

Professor Hubert Farnsworth: Well then, good news! It's a suppository.

Anything Zapp Brannigan says, but this is my favourite:

"If we can hit that bull's-eye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate!"

I never got to see more than maybe a dozen of those episodes and I thought it was much better than The Simpsons at the the time it came out. Did they yank it off the air too soon or was I just not coming home early enough from work?

dean ge, Tuesday, 3 July 2007 12:49 (sixteen years ago) link

it was on for five seasons. they're all on dvd.

jessie monster, Tuesday, 3 July 2007 13:33 (sixteen years ago) link

There are only four seasons on DVD! The TV networks split one of them into two TV seasons for some reason.

"nine... ten... big fat hen"

it's all about the context. in the superhero ep when bender says this with a knowing look.

From the episode where they go underwater and visit the Lost City of Atlanta:

Zoidberg: My home! It burned down! [breaks down crying]
How did this happen?
Hermes: That's a very good question.
Bender: So that's where I left my cigar ...
Hermes: That just raises further questions!

Lrr: "People of Earth... woah, that hippie's starting to kick in... we've all learned a valuable lesson today... dude, my hands are huge. They can touch anything but themselves... (touches his hands together). Oh, wait."

When I first saw this episode, I nearly died.

pimpmobile

It's the way Zapp sez it that kills it for me.

A contribution:
Janitor: Well hello miss, what's a beautiful young... [sees Leela's eyeball] Yeesh! Sorry, I thought you had two eyes.

Leee, Tuesday, 3 July 2007 22:30 (sixteen years ago) link

"nine... ten... big fat hen"

Hahah in the commentaries, one of the writers bursts out laughing at this point and says "we sat up all night and that was the best line we could come up with" =)

Zapp Brannigan: “What makes a man turn neutral … Lust for gold? Power? Or were you just born with a heart full of neutrality?”

Elvis Telecom, Tuesday, 3 July 2007 23:06 (sixteen years ago) link

Linda: “The time is 7:59 and the robot polls are now opening. And robot votes are now in. Nixon has won.”
Morbo: “Morbo congratulates our gargantuan cyborg president. May death come quickly to his enemies.”

Elvis Telecom, Tuesday, 3 July 2007 23:08 (sixteen years ago) link

Bender: Game's over, losers! I have all the money. Compare your lives to mine and then kill yourselves.

Bender: That plot makes perfect sense. Wink, wink.
Dr. Zoidberg: Bender, you said 'wink, wink' out loud.
