Stevem is OTM. When anyone pulls the "even if they suck, the simpsons are better than anything else on TV" line, Futurama is my standard refutation. Also, futurama is better sci-fi than most "serious" sci-fi on TV.

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.
