i dont know if this benn writen before, but look i found Michelle

[Reply #1 on:]

Which episode is that from?

[Reply #2 on:]

Read the title Boingo.

[Reply #3 on:]

Boy do I feel stupid.  More so, anyway.  As well I should.

Anyway, good find, Bobby.

Right next to Jar Jar (as a head-in-a-jar), very fitting.

That's one thing that confused me about that episode - they said they had to speed up the shot up above, which contained lots of characters and sight gags for time reasons, yet they left in some painfully slow moments elsewhere in the episode.

Examples I can think of off of the top of my head are the old crone going "Blaaaaaaaa", and the walk back round the table after Zoidberg and Harold hug at Ebola for the first time.

Yes, you can freeze-frame the crowd pan, but it seems like a wasted opportunity. Just a bit weird to me, is all.

Next to her on the left is Pauly Shore, the guy she runs off with at the end of The Cryonic Woman.
Gotta love Amy's dress in that scene.

I don't have a grab, but Michelle also appears in 'Jurassic Bark', but in one of the flash backs to the past 

[Reply #8 on:]

Is that the one in the 99cents Store?

[Reply #9 on:]

I noticed Michelle, too!  I'll bet she was there with Pauly Shore.  Why didn't she say anything when she saw the PE Crew?  Also, didn't she meet Zoidberg in The Cryogenic Woman?

[Reply #10 on:]

Because she had nothing worth saying. 

[Reply #11 on:]

She was at Fry's funeral in The Sting, as well.

[Reply #12 on:]

It must be hard finding these inside jokes...

[Reply #13 on:]

Pressing the pause button is a strenuous task, no doubt about it.

[Reply #14 on:]

I knew about Michelle, but I still can't get over one glaring thing in this scene - the fact that Jar-Jar Binks is a head in a jar, despite the fact that he's computer animated. I always felt it was the lamest and most out-of-place sight gag in the episode.

[Reply #15 on:]

Yeah, but it was barely on screen for half a second so it's not like they wasted 20 minutes trying to convince us it was a good gag.

[Reply #16 on:]

Man, how do you guys catch things like this?  I for one don't watch the backgrounds!

[Reply #17 on:]

Maybe some rabid "The Phantom Menace" fan was so awed by the Gungans, that he created them himself using genetic engineering.

A very, very mentally disturbed fan.

[Reply #18 on:]

That's a reasonable explanation, Teral.

After all, "How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back" has a beholder in it.  If beholders exist, why not Gungans?

Well, aside from the obvious answer that beholders are super cool and Gungans are not.

....during the Star Wars trek(?)

[Reply #20 on:]

Yes, while fleeing the horrible Star Trek wars.

J.J.Binks: "Why you-sa say that? Mee-sa very cool. Mee-sa friends say so."

Morbo don't look all too thrilled about sitting next to Jar-Jar.

*Beholder responds by killing Jar-Jar with its death ray, turning the corpse to stone with its petrification ray, and turning the stone to dust with its disintegration ray.*

is that Morgan?

[Reply #23 on:]

*squints*.....looks like some balding guy

[Reply #24 on:]

Hey, Bobby, good spotting!  I never noticed Michelle there before...
As for Morgan, well...I thought it was her on first glance but overall I'm not too sure.

[Reply #25 on:]

I can't see Morgan in that scene, it wouldn't make sense anyway, she was 'taken away' in 'How Hermes Requeistitioned his groove Back'.
