I think an exploration of Hermes's background would be appropriate, not to mention funny.

The zoo-keeper was really annoying for me but another episode for Hermes would have been great I think.

I would have liked to have seen Leela actually search for her parents.

Also Nibbler's "The Other" comment explained

I also just LOVED the parabox ep. I would have liked to see more parallel universes, maybe for them to spend more time in them. And it would have been cool to see the PE crew in Fry's time, although that would have shattered the "No Time Travel" rule.

Now I like Venus, I think she's a good PEEL'er, but quite frankly I agree with everything she just said!

Also a survival-episode with just Leela and Amy. Not like AWITM, more just the two of them stranded in a jungle and depending on eachother for survival. Would've been a great opurtunity for them to really make some catty remarks at eachother, but in the end it's only by combining forces and exploiting the strenghts of both personas they'll make it out alive. Yeah, it's cliché but I think the show lacked some good Amy/Leela episodes.

I like this idea, and it's quite likely that Slim would feature in an episode about Hermes' past, so that would be killing two birds with one stone.  As far as exploring characters' backgrounds, that's never been done with Zapp, either.

Since "Bend Her" takes place in 3004, it would probably be getting close to the time for another election in the Futurama world anyway.

The only problem with that idea is that you can't show HLS on network television.   :p

Anyway, I would have liked to have seen a return of Michelle and/or Morgan Proctor.  Either one of them would have made a good recurring nemesis.

No but I have, and it's a Leela/Amy survival thingy, and ironically Teral is the only one to have read a large part of it - since it's not quite finished - a coincidence all this!?!
Grrrrr.

I had a snappy comment here, but that would give away important plot-elements. Can't have that.  ;)

Completely coincidental. As a old friend once said, "I believe in coincidences, they happen every day, I just don't trust them."  :p

I would like to see an episode where Fry, Leela, and Bender do some detective/cop-style work.  I'm working on a fanfic based on this.  I, too have had some Futurama related dreams, myself.  But that's for another day!   :)

I think an Aliens parody might have been good.  And an all-out Lovecraftean story might have worked, with billion year-old ruins and godlike aliens from beyond space and all that.

That's frikken awesome. I love that. But what would Leela need Amy for? Withen a half hour of being stranded Leela would have a shelter built, a fire going, and would probably have killed some large animal for dinner with her bare hands. She would do just fine without Amy. Just give her a bloody volleyball with bad hair and all would be well.

Zed: this survival fic you speak of, is it the novel you're currently in the process of finishing?

@Venus. Basically, though perhaps I flew slightly off the handle. It is about Amy and Leela having to survive together, but perhaps not to quite the degree as Teral hypothasises.
Or something.
Read it and find out.  :)

Having said that, perhaps a Fry/Bender survival thing may have been a cool idea too  :)

Ooohhh... The mysteries of the future... I bet he is. He won the noble prize MORE than once if I'm not mistaken. But I wonder how his voice synthesizer would work... I guess we'll never know....

[Newsmonster] Morbo demands that the entire puny human race be enslaved by Morbo's kind!
[Linda]  :laff:

I would have loved to have seen Morbo actually follow through in his threats and pick a random person to torture (I suggest the australian)...on a broadcast network! Morbo however will have to fight virtually an identical clone of him for market share and political support with the Newsmonster of his planet.

Hmm, this isn't a bad thread to dig up as its on a good subject so I would say I would like to see an episode which explains about 'the other' with the Nibblonians

I would like to see an episode about Leela being 'the other', myself, Dave B.  There should also be another Anthology of Interest episode as well. 

I would like to see an episode about Fry revealing a secret weight problem and his chubbiness turns out to be a cover-up all along.
Plus, an episode where they go to a jungle planet.

Love the anthology III story ideas and I'm sure if the series lasts long enough the second time around we will learn more about the Leela/Other/Nibblonian thing, but the number one episode that I have wanted to see is one that explains the two following quotes from Leela:

"Still, given the chance, I'd give in to urges far more shocking." and "Have my years of wild hedonism finally caught up with me?"

On the other hand, a network tv version of that story could be disappointing. Guess I'll have to rely on good ol' fashioned imagination (and fan art from other sites).

i would like to see an ep where more of the nibblonians and the brains story could be revealed. Also a story where a new crew member was introduced could be good (even better if they didn't stay and were a 1 ep thing)

I would like to see episodes with:
  • A delivery on Trisol(which is why I'm making a fic about that).
  • Zoidberg becoming a Lord on Decapod after the death of his uncle's step-son's friend's dad's ex-roommate and then getting into trouble and being saved by the others(or not.MWAHAHAHA!)
  • The What If Machine(lets just say Anthology Of Interest III) and Fry,Bender and a background character asking questions.
  • A Xanfor and Katrina come-back.
  • More of the Brainspawn,The Mighty One,The Nibblonians and of course The Other.

And last but most important:
A episode where it is revealed that Scruffy was the Legendary Defender of The Universe who stopped the Earthican army once,and with no-one trusting him before the Brainspawn make another attack and when everything is lost,Scruffy comes and stops The Brains using his super-ultra janitor powers.  :laff:

That would be a laugh, but Fry is the true mighty one  :p as the concept of someone so stupid being the person who saves the entire Universe is just comical beyond belief  :D

There was a fan-fic about that!
 They should have made a episode where Planet Express sees a hostile takeover and Bender falls into the hands of criminals where he is used to fulfill their schemes.
