Interesting choice. Why that one may I ask? That might be a good one a few episodes into the series, from my perspective.
I suppose. It's one of my favourite episodes, for its pure hilarity.
It's also not a particularly futuristic episode (it is about the stock market, after all), so it wouldn't scare away someone who doesn't much care for sci fi. If you want to ease someone into the glorious nerdiness of the show, you might as well start with an episode that is typically hilarious but atypically sitcom-y as opposed to science-y.

My gf used to not like Futurama because of Fry's voice (whaaa?), then she liked Futurama despite his voice, and now it's her favorite show. I made her watch Season 4 when she was still on the fence, and Devil's Hands was the major turning point That's great: "Well, I've finally made up my mind. After watching that episode, I've decided that I really do like this show after all." "Too bad; that's all there is."
Bahahaha, that's excellent. The first episode I actually saw was Devil's Hands. It was kind of really confusing, but made me go buy the whole first season so it must have done something good.
Wow, I can't imagine someone's first exposure to the show actually being Devil's Hands! Maybe it's because I waited such a long time in anticipation for that ep that I find it hard to imagine. Still, you must have wondered what the hell was going on half the time surely?... Also, agreed that Insane In The Mainframe would be a good starter ep to show a stranger, possibly after 5 or 6 eps or so...
