Personally I thought the Robonnakah segment more then made up for the other two.
This is a good point; I loved the Robonnakah story. But the other two segments just seemed so lazy to me, and mostly unfunny, and I hated the Kwanzaa segment for how it dumped on "The Sting." It's not an awful episode, and I didn't exactly have high expectations for it before it aired--but it's certainly among the weakest episodes of season six. And wasn't "The Cure for the Common Clod" written by Patric Verrone? I think that helps explain why it's among the best of the comics.

Don't forget Phish Food ...
Yes, forget Phish Food. It's the only flavour people buy. OOH PHISH FOOD, PHISH FOOD PHISH FOOD PHISH FOOD, FUCK THE OTHER FLAVOURS, GET ME SOME PHISH FOOD. It's overrated.

It's popular for a reason, it's bloody delicious! I do buy other flavours. Other favourites of mine in order from most favourite are Caramel Chew Chew, Chocolate Fudge Brownie, Baked Alaska, and Chunky Monkey... I tried S'mores flavour in America, but it was disappointing ...

A new member of PEEL is going to be so confused when he/she comes to this thread:
'Let's check out the latest Futurama news! *Ben and Jerry's discussion* Boy, Season 6 went downhill fast...'

No discussion of Futurama Ben and Jerry's is complete without a mention of Chunky Monkey. Good god, people, don't forget the classics! Oh, wait, Otis mentioned it up-thread. Never mind, folks, carry on.
And, to make this post slightly on-topic, I am eagerly awaiting a clip from "Cold Warriors" to go up on Comedy Central's website. They're very inconsistent about which day the clip is available; last week it was the Friday after the new episode aired--and this week, not so much.

I agree that it is awesome, it’s just a shame it’s so rare in these parts ... And we haven't even moved onto why Ben and Jerry's is awesome, and Hagan Daas is overpriced and nothings special.
The exception being Baileys...

Yes, indeed!...
Also, on the subject of a clip from Cold Warriors, I eagerly anticipate this, just as long as I don't have to wait ages to see it after all the American viewers have seen and talked about it...

Oh, wait, Otis mentioned it up-thread. Never mind, folks, carry on. Now, now, Otis, I'm more than willing to admit when I've made a big ol' mistake. Proportionally, I think about three-fourths of my posts are just apologies for my own ignorance.

I've never even heard of Bohemian Raspberry, but it sounds intriguing. And Half-Baked is delicious--as is Pistachio Pistachio (even if the name is a bit redundantly redundant).
I was actually thrilled to discover that there's a Ben and Jerry's at a casino downtown; the prices are ridiculous, but the selection is much larger than what's to be found at the local grocery stores. I need a scorecard of some sort, I think, so that I can mark off each new flavor that I try, as I try it. Ice cream tasting is the sport of kings.

OMG I've just remembered another one of my favourite flavours, Macadamia! It's delicious! I don't often have it because it seems quite rare, but I highly recommend it! ...

We will discover that Professor Farnsworth's parents are still alive and living in the Near-Death Star.
I hope Farnsworth ends up killing them.

anyone else excited for this plot?: We will discover that Professor Farnsworth's parents are still alive and living in the Near-Death Star. This is one of the more intriguing episode plots, probably the one I'm most looking forward to of the ones I know about in Season 7. Given how much I loved the Near Death Star in A Clone of My Own, the thought of them going back there, especially for the Professors parents seems incredibly awesome. His parents better not suck as characters though ...

And the callbacks better not be done horribly and unsubtly. I loved Abner Doubledeal's reappearance in "Yo Leela Leela," for example--but some of the more obvious, sloppy callbacks to previous plot points, characters, and episodes have grated on me.

Hopefully there will be no continuity errors brought up in them going back there, and the Professor being more than old enough to spend the rest of his days there...

I really don't think the microwave is that important...

If the microwave was bigger I'd say it looks as if he'd just fallen out of it, but I guess it must be off because if it wasn't then Bender would've fallen apart ...

I wonder what Bender is connected to?
