enough Simpsons already...for this week anyway

i like the Robot Planet one from the first series:

Robot Guard #2: Which of the following would you most prefer? A: A puppy? B: A pretty flower from your sweetie or C: A large properly formatted data file?

Robot Guard #1: Choose!

[Fry and Leela whisper to each other about the answer.]

Fry: Is the puppy mechanical in any way?

Robot Guard #2: No. It is the bad kind of puppy.

Leela: Then we'll go with that data file.

Robot Guard #2: Correct.

Robot Guard #1: The flower would also have been acceptable.

i still don't really like futurama. but the one where nixon's head gets re-elected was great, and i liked the slurm factory one cos of the oompa-loompa type song and then the prof saying "tell them i hate them"

― zemko (bob), Thursday, 16 January 2003 12:32 (twenty-three years ago)

i'd rather watch a new Futurama than a new Simpsons easily...are they still making episodes? i heard FOx had cancelled it along with Family Guy

It would have been funny if this had languished in Unanswered Questions.

meanwhile, The Simpsons is apparently secure for another three seasons at least (a few of the actors who provide key voices had contractual qualms) - its just not fair i tells ya

80s guy: "You remeber that song Saftey Dance?"
Fry: "Oh yeah!
Both: "DOO DOO DEE DEE DEE DOO DOO DEE DEE DEE"
Fry: "You know, it wasn't as safe as they said it was."

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.

― Lynskey (Lynskey), Thursday, 16 January 2003 12:45 (twenty-three years ago)

what annoyed me was all the critics saying 'its no Simpsons, but...' when by the time Fry and co. got going The Simpsons was blatantly flagging and running out of ideas (and jokes) - Futurama's had a better script and better gags from the outset really, tho i concede that Futurama probably doesnt have the same mileage as The Simpsons did.

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 16 January 2003 12:56 (twenty-three years ago)

one of the things the simpsons had which futurama lacks is a HUGE ensemble cast, so f always feels a bit underpopulated, somehow

of course the bbc mainly only shows series one of the simpsons so i can't compare properly

― mark s (mark s), Thursday, 16 January 2003 13:26 (twenty-three years ago)

underpopoulated = saying "i like this, but i'd like it more if there was more of it"

i dont get this, the BBC has been showing LOADS of late 90s episodes! but both they and Sky will revert to the first two series every 6 months it seems...in fact i'm not sure season 6 is getting much of a look-in, (tho it should be)

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 16 January 2003 13:48 (twenty-three years ago)

what happened to this c4 paying a million £ an episode thing?

― zemko (bob), Thursday, 16 January 2003 13:58 (twenty-three years ago)

Search: anything with Zapp Brannigan and Kif.

"Have the boy bring me my dress shorts."
"The boy?"
"You, Kif. You bring me my dress shorts."
"Sigh."

"In the game of chess, it is vital never to let your opponent see your pieces"

Sadly Zapp mhas made it impossible for me to watch Planet Of The Apes without collapsing.

Does it have more visual jokes than the Simpsons? I'm thinking of stuff with Bender - him shitting a brick, or taking three beers out of his chest to celebrate and drinking them all.

I still can't get my head around the fact that it was actually Al Gore in the "fry returns to 2000" episode.

zemko, apparently C4 have done that and i think they get to start showing them in the Autumn...no doubt they will failt to settle on a consistent transmission time once Celeb Big Brother rears its stupid fat fuckarsed face though

The Incompetent Turquoise Chicken Lawyer is better than anything that's been on the Simpsons in a least three years. 'Now, little girl, I want you to realise that there is absoluteleh nothin' for you to be afraid of. I- (shrieks loudly) I'm sorry, I thought you was corn.' 'Your honour, I move that I be disbarred for introducin' this evi-dence against mah own client.'

Also, wasn't there some kind of Charm Robot that spouted the line 'Is heaven missing an angel? Because you have nice cans.'

I don't understand Mark's "underpopulated" comment: surely the Simpsons got as well-populated as it did by picking up character after character for season after season?

― nabisco (nabisco), Thursday, 16 January 2003 17:44 (twenty-three years ago)

(Granted, the fact that Futurama "travels" and they live in a big city removes the ease of just returning every character you introduce, but, e.g., I just watched the collapsing-planet episode where they brought in Kif, Brannigan, and Nibbler, one of whom is now super-involved and the others of whom can be used in pretty much the same manner as a Krusty or a Hibbert.)

― nabisco (nabisco), Thursday, 16 January 2003 17:47 (twenty-three years ago)

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."

― James Mitchell (James Mitchell), Thursday, 16 January 2003 18:49 (twenty-three years ago)

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?"

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 (eighteen years ago)

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."

zapp brannigan's immortal 'she's built like a stakehouse but she handles like a bistro!'

This is the only Futurama line that has stuck in my head... remarkably difficult to get into a conversation.

Fry: Bender, what was it like lying in that hole for a thousand years?
Bender: I was enjoying it until you guys showed up.

I swear he just held out so he could go I'M BACK BABY later.

I think this was the first episode I ever saw, that “oops” at the end is something that’s stuck with me to the point I think it might be one of the best jokes in an animated show ever

background info re:above post―
is everything political? i've watched and rewatched the series enough to have developed a lot of theories, and just general thinking about the ideals+etiquette behind each character. key among them is: nixon keeps getting reelected, but how?

we know bender's all-in (if he could vote), and definitely the professor imo. leela actively campaigns against nixon, so definitely no. that leaves fry, hermes, amy, and dr zoidberg.

if we cross real-world implications into the picture, fry is most likely deeply affected by post-traumatic response. so he's a chaotic neutral, and literally doesn't care. i suspect he has probably repeatedly voted for nixon's opponent in a ploy to seduce leela, and that’s the extent of fry's political beliefs.

hermes is clearly a libertarian, so who knows. fry's a more consistent voter than hermes. again, real-world implications: hermes is high as fuck most of the time, and is subsequently an emotional and political wild card. i will say this about hermes: he loves dwight unconditionally and it's one of the best dynamics in the show. do nixon's policies affect this super important aspect of hermes' life enough to impact his voting? who knows.

fyi i hate amy and her stupid boomer parents. she's definitely a nixon voter. wonder how nixon's policies affect those buggalo tariffs, huh leo? YOU GOT WHAT YOU VOTED FOR🤬

and last, our dearest friend doctor john zoidberg. nephew of the great harold zoid, resident of dumpsters. i dunno man, zoidberg's pretty f'kn cool imo. doesn't know shit about his job, but keeps getting hired. totally maxed out loyalty stats, loves with his entire soul, but no social skills whatsoever. has a penchant (and undeniable success, in theory) for showmanship and charm, but zero execution. remember when he got a girlfriend? that was rad. he's loyal to the professor, but i think for other theoretical reasons i've also thought too much about, and which we won't get into here. he's definitely old school, but probably politically very centrist: socially liberal, economically conservative. i think he was most likely "RAISED RIGHT™" within his culture, and that translates well to his political compass. i would say zoidberg has most likely voted for nixon in the past, but is starting to regret it.
