Maybe it's much like Latin. It's a dead language, incomprehensible to the vast majority of the population, or as Farnsworth put it "crazy jibberish". Still some Latin phrases have survived. Most people understand what "Veni Vidi Vici" or "ergo" means. (just examples) So for a very limited range of people Farnsworth's machine would have value, but to most it is worthless. Oh, and kill the skincell-byproduct (but give Leela the chance to get some arcturian kungfu training before dumping him into the black hole).

Well, if you put That Guy on the list, that'd be a huge mistake. He'd obviously win "Most Favorite Character, Period. " Poll. If I had to add a character, I'd put on Harold Zoid or Michelle, both of which aren't getting much sympathy from PEELers. Edit: I voted for the oft-forgotten Mayor Poopenmeyer. Simply as a character, there's nothing new or funny that he brings to the show. All the others at least have some redeeming quality, even Cubert. Cubes did his purpose (of being an irritating little prick) and did it well. Poopenmeyer is so bad, he hasn't come back since "A Big Piece of Garbage", though you know he was supposed to be a recurring character. Most of his lines are now taken over by Nixon's head. ------------------ If you're in a war, instead of throwing a hand grenade at some guys, throw one of those little baby-type pumpkins. Maybe it'll make everyone realize how crazy war is. And, while they're thinking, you can throw a real grenade.

Poppenmeyer was in "A Flight To Remember" and "The Deep South" as well.
He's not the funniest of the lot, I'll agree to that, but he's fullfilled his role as leader of NNY the few times we've seen him.
Michelle, agree with you there. Harold Zoid was so-so, at least he has a few funny ideas. "You gotta emote! OY!"

He hands Bender the big cardboard cheque for his record catch in the end (and take it again when Fry drops out).

I vote for Zapp.
(I have met people like him IRL. So, even though he adds a lot to the show, I have to vote for him on principle.)

When I last posted here I'd not seen none of series three or four so I'd not seen That Guy, he sucked.

The best thing about Futurama is that you can have really, really annoying characters, and yet they're supposed to be. A character like Cubert is one you'd like to punch in the stomach, but then so would the rest of the characters! It's great! Not like Wesley Crusher, who everyone else likes. :shudder: -Oh, and I know it's many, many, many months out of date, but interestingly enough French is dead in the distant future? Does this explain why "French" starship captain Jean-Luc Picard has a posh English accent? In a very early NG episode, the crew see illusions come to life in a strange part of space that's never been explored, and Jean Luc sees his long-dead ma-ma, who actually speaks with a French accent. Just so you know

Seriously I think we get that Idea that Cubert was the sukiest suck of a clone.

It's only one-sided because he was pitted against those other characters. Only Mom was a serious contender. If we had added Gunther, That Guy ( Evan), Calculon, Helper and a few others we might have a real competition.

Seeing "Mars University" again only reinforced the hatred I hold for that damn monkey.
