Futurama Jeopardy

[on:]

Post what you think the question is, and the person who gets it right posts a new answer. Oh, and these can include trivia from the commentary tracks, and the secret commentary tracks.

The answer is: uh...work really, really hard?

Correct. Choose the next answer.

[Reply #4 on:]

That Guy: It's time I cut you in on the secret to success. Any guesses?

[Reply #5 on:]

Well, since he hasn't chosen a new answer...Jicannon, you're up!

[Reply #6 on:]

no 24-hour rule? This may be a little too close to the quote game...but anyway:

"No. now your character's in a coma."

[Reply #7 on:]

It doesn't have to be a quote, it can be anything. Pictures, quotes, trivia

[Reply #8 on:]

(This was originally posted in reponse to Futurama Nerd's question/answer:  Which episode won an award for Outstanding Individual Achievement in 2002)
Umm, was it Parasite Lost?  Lemme rephrase that in the form of a question.  What award did the Futurama episode "Parasites Lost" won in 2002? (Oh wait, I guess I phrased it as a question.  Oh well   

(Does a search on the web to verify question)Hmm. this is what I'm found so far:
 

2000 - Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation for episode "A Bi-Clops Built for Two"
2001 - Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation Rodney for episode "Parasites Lost"
2002 - Outstanding Animated Program (For Programming Less Than One Hour) for episode "Roswell That Ends Well"

This was found at:  http://www.tvtome.com/Futurama/
(Is it considered cheating to look up the answer??)   

If ignorance if bliss, you'd think more people would be happy when you tell them they're an idiot!

What is: "Does my character now have a British accent?!?"

/-yeah, I can sense this could come dangerous close to a quote game we already have.  Perhaps if we shyed away from just-quotes and included more trivia it could work.

[Reply #11 on:]

Yeah, I'm with evan and Jicannon ... it's gotta be more than just quotes (those should be made as rare as possible here).  So, more stuff like this $100 answer:
He is the despotic alien overlord of Omicron Persei 8 (spelling, please). 

Overall, be specific in your answers (and your question responses if possible), as similarities abound in Futurama. 

[Reply #12 on:]

evan you are correct. Hit us up with some trivia 

[Reply #13 on:]

Yeah, I kinda already mentioned that it could be trivia in the first post, and then included pictures in a later post. Should we just try again?

[Reply #14 on:]

Alright,should I go? What was one of the original names for Futurama that MG thought they should use?
(Hope this is phrased right)

[Reply #15 on:]

What is Aloha Mars?

[Reply #16 on:]

What is "Doomsville"?

Category: Voice Actors
for $200
A: These three characters sound nothing alike, accoring to Maurice LaMarche.

[Reply #17 on:]

Who are Lrrr, Morbo and Horrible Gelatinous Blob?

Category: Production History
for $200

This was Phillip J. Fry's original name, until he was renamed in mermory of voice actor Phil Hartman.

Hey, Eyedol got FN's question first...but evan was also correct and he started a clue first...and I already responded to evan's clue...

I vote that from now on we wait for confirmation of a correct question before posting a new clue.  Starting after this, of course, since I know I'm right and it's not an ambiguous question.  (Yes I am in a pompous ass mood today.)

[Reply #18 on:]

What is "Curtis Fry"?

[Reply #19 on:]

Wow, someone listened to my suggestion.  And it was evan.  And he got it right.

Your go, oh he of the fence fetish.

Category: The Cast
for $300
A: One of the two members of Planet Express that have never been fired/put on leave of absence.

[Reply #21 on:]

Who is Dr. Zoidberg and/or Amy Wong and/or Scruffy?

Also, what is the point of this wierd phrasing? People seem to be merely leaving one or two words off the front of their question only for similar words to appear on the front of the answer.

[Reply #22 on:]

It's how Jeopardy works, Prof.  Usually they have to stretch to make the answer a statement, and they don't even try to make the responses grammatically correct, but that's how it's done.

If my memory serves me right, didn't everyone get fired when Planet Express was sold to Momcorp in 'Futurestock'?  I could be wrong though.  It's been a while since I watched that ep.

[Reply #24 on:]

Oh, alright, it's a bum question.  Strike it from the record.

[Reply #25 on:]

Easy one to get it started again:

He can do a flock of geese.

[Reply #26 on:]

I have absolutely no idea what question to answer. But in response to

<He can do a flock of geese.>

"Who is Frank Welker"?

*When I get confirmation of the answer (which is correct), give me some time to post a new question. (Give me until 4:00p.m. Pacific Standard Time).*

[Reply #27 on:]

totally correct

[Reply #28 on:]

*Category: Audio Commentary
Question: The last episode of Futurama recordered for audio commentary.*

-Again, give me until 4:00p.m. Pacific Standard Time to confrim the answer. If I don't post by then, then someone just post the next question.-

[Reply #29 on:]

I remember very well this being discussed, but I'm not sure about the episode.

What is "The Sting"?

[Reply #30 on:]

What is Spanish Fry?

[Reply #31 on:]

What is The Devil's Hands Are Idle Playthings?

Sometimes the obvious answer is the correct one.

EDIT:
[Stewie]BLAST![/Stewie]

[Reply #32 on:]

You're right Nerd-o-rama, sometimes the obvious answer is the correct one. But not in this case.

Prof.Wernstrum got this one right.

It's Spanish Fry. If you listen to the audio commentary for that one, when they have the scene in the log cabin, when the ranger is going to show the film, David X. Cohen says this is the last episode they're recording, and that they already recordered The Devil's Hands Are Idle Playthings.

[Reply #33 on:]

198 billion.

[Reply #34 on:]

What is the amount of popplers eaten by humans?

[Reply #35 on:]

Yep. Go Jicannon!

[Reply #36 on:]

2019.

[Reply #37 on:]

In what year was Calculon attacked by the Werecar?

[Reply #38 on:]

Yep, your go M0le

[Reply #39 on:]

OK, a simple one:
Bend around Europe for a bit, then get a job bending.
