Yes, there's nothing to discuss anymore. The Leela/Fry, Amy/Kif and Farnsworth/Old lady with the cat shppiness has been beaten to death.

They "clean up nice" don't they? 

Also, if Fry's subconscience generated this dance sequence and Leela's subconsciencee generated the one in the Venusian garden how can they not end up together?  They both imagined/dreamt of holding each other close and Fry did not end up with a black eye in either one.

PS: Josh's pic reminds me.  In my prolonged absence, which I'm sure was widely discussed and mourned I spent a little time on a ship of a different sort.  Don't call me a two-timer though; I thought about the pair in our 'ship every day (well, half of the pair anyway).

I found the Easter Egg! I found the Easter Egg...

Oh, I guess I'm a little late to the party.

I'm shocked, shocked that after 80 pages of shipper postings folks are running out of things to say.

Is it possible to axe for links/repostings of past  winners of the shippy logo contest?  Or did it just start in 2006?

This thread, is like soil. All it takes is a seed... But otherwise, it looks dead and kinda vain. But don't you dare see it that way, lest you want the same fate the last guy got who thought that.

We had to ignore him, we did.

Gosh, a whole wiki to Futurama!  Hyuk!  I'm such a rube.  Thanks for the nod, Xan IV.  Great to see there is a Zoidberg shipper, too.  Zoidberg deserves so much more love than he's getting.

And I'm absolutely certain this will be the one thread on PEEL that will never die, even if folks resort to pasting entire episodes frame by frame.  There will be a lot of new 'seed' with the new episodes too!  Can't wait!

Sorry, Zoidy, can't draw.  Can barely even cut and paste.  I'll leave it to Sedna, who made one heck of a nice picture.

Oh, do be careful! That's not a 'Futurama' wiki! This is a 'Futurama' wiki. This is a wiki soley about this forum. You see, PEEL has been around for so long, it's no longer just a forum. It's a community.

So, for 'Futurama', go to the Infosphere, the 'Futurama' wiki. For us and all your friends, go to WikiPEELia, the PEEL wiki. Great place to learn about the community.   ;)

As for the threads dying we just need to hold out and find things to violently argue about, no matter how trivial, until October/November when the first movie comes out.

Oh geez, and here I was thinking Wikipedia's articles on Futurama covered the territory--had no idea there were 2 additional wikis!  (stamp noob on forehead here).

The fan fic entry in wikipeelia was really useful--I would not have been able to locate fanfics by certain posters otherwise--maybe I'm just lousy with the PEEL search engine(wouldn't be surprised).

Out of curiosity what was the earliest shipping thread?  "Fry and Leela sitting in a tree..."?  Anyone know? Remember? Care?

@Frisco17: And you are completely absolutely wrong ! It's December not November  ;)  Hows that for an argument?

The reason why the search may not work is that you have to first set the search thing to Fan art and Fiction, then type a username in. It may not be obvious at the what is or isn't a fic at first. Most have the title of the story, or perhaps their name's in the title, like mine and possibly Xanfor's....Anyways,the word "fanfic" can also be found in many a title, and the newer ones being posted are worth reading, no matter how short.

And here's a thread I found some jewels in...

Originally posted by Venus:

i think on some level she is interested, we have seen them connect, but i think there are 2 main things holding her back.

1. She has doubts about their compatibility. Which is a valid concern, i mean what really do they have in common? He is rather juvenile so she probably can't have deep meaningful conversations with him, which is what most women want. i know its what i want. it's not a matter of her having high standards or wanting an important guy, she just wants someone she can communicate with on her level. To respond to Getak's rather cruel rant, just because she was happy to have an important guy doesn't mean she won't date anyone who isn't important. I would love a rich,important,goodlooking guy, but that's a fantasy, not a requirement, but if i did get a guy like that of course i would be excited, as she was.

2. She is looking for a commitment. yeah the guys she dated turned out to be jerks, but she never knew it upfront. She discovered it later, and as soon as she did she dumped them. She wants a family and Fry hasn't really given her the impression that a commitment is what he wants. Look at all the relationships he has been in. Amy he left because she was 'getting to serious' he even said to Leela "i'm not a one woman kinda guy" that's not the kinda thing you tell the women your interested in, especially if a commitment is what she wants. And what about Umbriel? he said he loved her. So much in fact that he was gonna give up his life on the surface for her, but as soon as he figured out he couldn't score with her he went running in the opposite direction. that's not love. What if something happened to Leela and she couldn't 'perform up to par' would he leave her too? She probably thinks so. His relationship with the Lucy Lui bot could imply to her that all he wants is a sexual partner. Lucybot had no real personality of her own. She was programmed to find everything he did amazing and to make out. She had no opinions or ideas of her own, and Fry was completely satisfied with that. i would want my guy to be  just as interested in my mind as my body. And i would hope a truly nice guy would eventually get bored of a mindless makeout drone and want a real emotional connection. Leela & Fry are always together, i think it's safe to say that Fry is her closest friend. She may be afraid to risk that close friendship for a relationship that to her seems doomed to fail.

 and i don't think it's very fair to get pissed at her for it. If all you wanted was a commitment and the only guy that seemed interested is known for short mostly sexual relationships with no real substance would you jump in? Probably not. i wouldn't. yeah us looking in from the outside can see that they would make a great match but you have to see it from her angle. We know things about Fry that she doesn't. a lot of the truly romantic gestures he has done for her he did without her knowledge and some of his poorest romantic decisions he had right in front of her. Plus her history is full of guys that treated her poorly, its all she really knows, so there are probably psychological issues keeping her wary. People with emotional baggage tend to protect themselves more. If she dates a guy she doesn't know very well and it goes bad and they break up then she never has to see that person again, but she sees Fry everyday, if things went bad, if Fry got tired of her and left her and she had let herself fall in love with him, then she has to face that hurt everyday. of course we know he would never get tired of her, but that is all she has seen of his past relationships and has no real reason to suspect otherwise.

@Venus: Your points are mostly valid, but as for commitment, that just doesn't add up. I think it's been made clear enough that Leela is the only woman who Fry WOULD commit to. Hell, he's already committed to her, and she's rejected him at nearly every opportunity. After all that, he still loves her and still wants to be with her. If that's not commitment, I don't know what is. This should be almost as apparent to Leela as it is to us, especially after his actions in times like the oxygen scene of "Love and Rocket", and, most notably, "The Sting".

you always want what you can't have. And when you get it you eventually want the next step up. She may be afraid that if he did get her he would eventually lose interest and it's the fact that he can't get her that is keeping him interested. it's why some girls feel the need to play hard to get. The basic idea is the harder you are to attain the more alluring you are. I'm not saying that leela is leading him on or anything, just that she doesn't completely trust that he would want her permanatly. And as for his show of commitment in L&R and TS i agree with you and ever since those eps she has been more receptive, she's warming up to him she's just having trouble taking that final step. but she is slowly heading in that direction.

Anarchist and Venus: I agree with both of you. Fry's done many sweet things for her recently. Those other relationships weren't meant to last. It should be known the last thing a guy wants is to appear too desperate and pathetic. These other relationships satisfy the "needs" but I believe if he got with Leela, he would be true to her. It also seems to me that this is the first time Fry has felt this way. I can't really say he loved Michelle and that's the only woman we know he's dated before Leela came along.

2 She lobes the power she has over him bending her to her will (like all women do)
3 She thinks she can do better but enjoys she attention and doesnt wamt to lose a slobbering sycophant
4 She is keeping him keen so that he can be her 'Safety Guy' in case she doesnt snag anyone better
Now this may seem like women bashing but hell its all true

What? Oh, yes, I've been distracted, have not I?... Let's see... Are shippy storylines dull?

Fry and Leela sittin' in a what-have-you...

Technically, what I want would be the "one episode" option.  The VERY LAST episode.  I like the teasing and hinting loads more than Fry's (usually) pathetic and over-the-top desperate grabs at Leela.  I thought that the two aborted kisses in A Flight to Remember and X-Mas Story much more than Fry saying "I have to MAKE Leela love me" every five minutes.  And if they/when they do get together, I'd want it to be completely and totally unplanned on the part of Fry.  Not some sweeping, romantic, elaborate plot that Fry dreams up to "make" Leela love him, but rather a spur of the moment, impulsive gesture by Fry, along the lines of what happened in Love and Rocket with the oxygen tanks.

Ha! A mod said it! They have to listen! Old thread, but worth a looksie-daisy...

Fry and Leela, the possibilities... Old thread, but bumped by one whom I personally shall be thanking evermore... frycutiepie! And who's that Pittzoid dude? He stole my avatar!

Now this was a good thread. Sadly, I never read it. To tell the truth, I felt like an arrogant little berk. After all, Fry_B ripped off my official shipper thread idea! Almost... Well, just goes to show you, if the Official Shipper Thread goes downhill, then someone will just have to do the job of creating another for it's original purpose. You know, I should add that link to the Shipping Culture article, shouldn't I? And I should end this link as well...

And to wrap it off, debate your heart out here and here and here. Gawd I was a n00b in that last one... I only hope Shiny finally forgave me...

Oh yes, and no shipper link compendium/repertoire/agglomeration could be complete without this.

So, enjoy. Also, check out here for the links to all the Official Shipper Threads, numbers two and three of which I have yet to completely read myself...

Don't lord it over me, kid.  ;)

Bleh. People in this thread spend to much time groveling. Women should not grovel. They should be posting their own shippy art, so I can make art thread soon. (Soon = 2.5 days)

Professor Zoidy's name is included in this post simply because she asked to be, not because what is said above is any way applicable to her. Which it is, but that's  also besides the point.
