Here we go:

is it The Devil's Hands Are Idle Playthings?

[Reply #281 on:]

Thanks for reposting the image, Tachy.

INCORRECT GUESSES:
The Devil's Hands Are Idle Playthings
Brannigan, Begin Again
Put Your Head on My Shoulders
The Birdbot of Ice-Catraz
I Dated a Robot
Benderama
Assie Come Home
Fourty Percent Leadbelly
The Thief of Baghead
The Bots and the Bees
Bender's Big Score
Lethal Inspection

CLUES:
There are two main characters depicted in this image.
The image is not presented in its original aspect ratio.
It's from a Bender-centric episode.
It isn't from any of the dvd movies.

Brannigan, Begin Again?

[Reply #283 on:]

Put Your Head on My Shoulders?

[Reply #284 on:]

Still nope. Clue added!

[Reply #285 on:]

The Birdbot of Ice-Catraz?

[Reply #286 on:]

I Dated A Robot?

[Reply #287 on:]

I've added two new clues to give this round the shot in the arm it needs.

Get on it, people!

[Reply #288 on:]

Benderama?

[Reply #289 on:]

Assie Come Home?

[Reply #290 on:]

Hmmm.  I'm trying to recall Bender-ish episodes that may have used that colour palette...

is it Forty Percent Leadbelly?

[Reply #291 on:]

The Thief of Baghead?

[Reply #292 on:]

Still nope!

[Reply #293 on:]

The Bots and the Bees? The purpleness could be Bev.

[Reply #294 on:]

Bender's Big Score?

[Reply #295 on:]

Bender's Big Score is really more of a Fry-oriented story when you think about it...

At any rate, still no dice. Another clue added!

[Reply #296 on:]

Lethal Inspection?

[Reply #297 on:]

Free Will Hunting?

[Reply #298 on:]

Free Will Hunting?

Ding ding ding ding ding!!! We have a winner!



You're up, UrL!

[Reply #299 on:]

I need to find some more creative Photoshop filters.

Wrongness:
Reincarnation
Leela's Homeworld
Less than Hero
Saturday Morning Fun Pit
Leela and the Genestalk
Law and Oracle
The Silence of the Clamps
The Sting
Naturama
Neutopia

Hints:
Post-cancellation episode
There's a high possibility that many PEELers haven't seen this image before.

[Reply #300 on:]

Reincarnation?

[Reply #301 on:]

Leela's Homeworld?

[Reply #302 on:]

Incorrect.

[Reply #303 on:]

Less than Hero?

[Reply #304 on:]

Saturday Morning Fun Pit?

[Reply #305 on:]

Added a hint. Aren't I charitable today?

[Reply #306 on:]

Hmmmm.

Leela and the Genestalk?

[Reply #307 on:]

Law and Oracle?

Free Will Hunting?

Ding ding ding ding ding!!! We have a winner!

Hmm... No wonder I didn't recognize that image. I've long considered Free Will Hunting to be the most forgettable episode. They tried to cram too much into that episode and, as a result, nothing stuck out. All I remember is that there was some meaningless montage of Bender attending some university.

I agree. I mean, I don't hate the episode by any means but I remember that particular scene from Beamer's screencap really bothered me with the way Bender acted and just the general vibe of the episode felt off.

I don't think I've seen the episode in like... two years though. I should watch season 7 again.

You're all still wrong, by the way.

[Reply #309 on:]

I wasn't bothered by the ending of Free Will Hunting, but the episode is pretty much the perfect example of "great idea, poor execution."

Back on topic: The Silence of the Clamps?

[Reply #310 on:]

The Sting?

[Reply #311 on:]

Added another hint. A vague one, at that.

[Reply #312 on:]

Naturama?

[Reply #313 on:]

There's a high possibility that many PEELers haven't seen this image before.

I'm guessing that means the image comes from the closing credits of an episode... Maybe Neutopia, then? I seem to recall the dvd verison of that ending with a still frame montage.

[Reply #314 on:]

Are you trying to trick me into watching Neutopia!?

[Reply #315 on:]

That clue is throwing me off. It's hard to imagine that there is a framegrab that most PEELers have not seen.

[Reply #316 on:]

Maybe a region-specific cold opening?

[Reply #317 on:]

Maybe a deleted scene that was on one of the DVDs?

[Reply #318 on:]

Maybe a region-specific cold opening?

I don't believe there are any such region-specific versions of the show. I was thinking it was an image from an episode's closing credits since they're often cut off from broadcast, but Scrappy may be on to something with his deleted scene theory.
