Best Ever Futurama Episode

[Reply #520 on:]

Has to be Amazon Women in the Mood for me if only for this one exchange:

Fry:What'd they die of?

Amazonian: Crushed pelvises.

Fry: Yes!

Zapp: Oh, thank you lord in heaven!

Roswell That Ends Well runs a close second.

I'm watching that right now on dvd =D
My favorite has to be when Bender jacks on.
-Bender walks in all upbeat and cheerful because he quit drugs and joined a church (i forgot what he said)
Fry: Oh great he's whacked off on electricity again

[Reply #522 on:]

Whacked out. Whacked off has a slightly different meaning.

[Reply #523 on:]

For one horrible second there, I thought JackedOn had returned.

[Reply #524 on:]

anthology of interest i

[Reply #525 on:]

Into the Wild Green Yonder if that counts.

It's definitely up there in my opinion.

[Reply #526 on:]

I love roswell that ends well, so creative, especially with zoidberg!

[Reply #527 on:]

The Farnsworth Parabox is my favourite. I like seeing all the different universes, and there are a lot of funny parts in it, like:

Professor: (Shouting from the attic) Help! Satan! You owe me! 

Into the Wild Green Yonder is my favourite movie though.

It's "My Three Suns"

[Reply #530 on:]

Amazon Women in the mood is definantly a favourite mainly because it was the episode that got me hooked. The episodes on disc 4 season 4 are also up there in favourites

Less than hero I like best, Bender should not be allowed on tv comes second

[Reply #532 on:]

I'm glad someone else rates Less than Hero so highly, it's not my all time favourite but it'd be in my top five episodes/movies for sure.

[Reply #533 on:]

My favourite episode has to be "The Lesser Of Two Evils" Bender & Flexo are great!


I agree Less Than Hero is also a very good episode!

Also is there not a poll for this?

[Reply #534 on:]

Jurassic Bark and Luck of the fryrish at the moment

Welcome back, Gorky!  I remember reading some of your stuff on PEEL archives.  Youre tastes in episodes (and ITWGY) seems very similar to mine, although I liked BG better than Billion Backs...

[Reply #540 on:]

Hee...thanks, JustNibblin. I'm surprised you'd choose to engage me in conversation after having read some of my old posts--reading my old posts fills me with disgust and shame and, you know, misplaced nostalgia--but thanks for the welcome regardless.

And not to get too off-topic, but I inititally preferred BG to TBWABB, too. Rewatching them both in the past few days, though, my preference changed. For me, knowing the eventual outcome of ItWGY, and the conclusion of the Fry and Leela saga, made it a lot easier to enjoy TBWABB. I mean, I still hate that it completely disregards Lars (and find it strange that he isn't mentioned once while Leela comforts Amy in her mourning), but I think it's a very funny movie. If I pretend it happened in season two or early season three--and not after the glorious shippy wonder that was BBS--then it's easier to accept it. You know, better viewing through denial and whatnot.

But BG just really bored me my second time through it; the RPG stuff annoyed me (particularly Leela eating one of Zoidy's hearts--that was kind of disturbing), and I thought the whole movie would've been more enjoyable without the last episode and a half. Just my li'l ol' opinion, though.

[Reply #541 on:]

I love the final episode, The Devil's Hands are Idle Playthings

Also, How Hermes Requisitioned his Groove Back, The Sting, Anthology of Interest II, Time Keeps on Slipping and Roswell that Ends Well.

Parts of Crimes of the Hot are amazing, too, just not the whole premise.

[Reply #542 on:]

The Devils Hands are Idle Playthings is my favorite episode and Into The Wild Green Yonder is my favorite monvie, but i love every episode and it is really hard to chose one episode.  Roswell That Ends Well is my second and Amazon Women In The Mood is my third favoeite.

[Reply #545 on:]

Godfellas is obscenely funny in my book, not to mention an... interesting, if not sacreligeous concept.

[Reply #546 on:]

I'm gonna have to say....

Hi all, I'm not new here but I haven't started to post yet. I'm an Spanish 18-year-old boy.

About the topic, my favorite is Hell Is Other Robots. I'm sure there are better episodes, but I have always been very fond of this one. Some other favorites for me are I, Roommate, Roswell That Ends Well and Jurassic Bark. I wil post my top10 when I think about it a while.

Noone here likes "Bend Her"?

I thought Bender was exceptionally funny in this episode

* hobbitboy nervously looks around as he tentatively raises his hand

I like Bend Her as well.

[Reply #552 on:]

I didn't think it was that bad, I don't see what was wrong with it.

[Reply #553 on:]

Bend Her used to be my least favourite but after watching them all again I've had to re-evaluate.

The wedding scene is brilliant.

[Reply #554 on:]

"Bend Her" is one of my favorite Bender episodes ever. I like it because, much like in "Godfellas", he's got a conscience--but (unlike in "Godfellas") he also gets to be a fembot. And, you know, win gold medals. Also, I think a lot of the observations about men and women ("Every man wants a tramp") are hilarious.

(And, on a totally irrelevant note, I think "Bend Her" has one of the funniest commentaries of any episode, too. Mike Rowe's "Gay Guy and the Ghost" schtick is hysterical.)

Speaking of commentaries, on which one does Tress MacNeille mention being able to put her feet behind her head (or words to that effect)?

[Reply #556 on:]

I think it might be from "The Day the Earth Stood Stupid", when Jeff Westbrook's discussing his smart-guy credentials. Either that, or it's "Futurestock" or "The 30% Iron Chef", which I'm pretty sure are the only other tracks on which she appears. (And, for what it's worth, I think Tress's presence makes all three of those commentaries 16.3% more amusing than the average one.)

[Reply #557 on:]

Very hard question, and it's almost impossible to limit it down to one. So I'll just pick one of my favourates, 'Fry And The Slurm Factory' 

hilarious... utterly
