Bender's Loves

[Reply #40 on:]

I've changed my mind: I have to go with the Planet Express Ship relationship.  Watching Sigourney get to act all out, completely-over-the-top was a lot of fun.

I'm surprised that Bella has gotten more votes then the lovely Angelyne.  On the other hand, I'm happy the PE Ship and Fanny have gotten the most votes after the Countess.

I might make another thread for Bender's trashy hookups.   That way you can vote for Hookerbot 5000, Ruth and Esther.    Before you ask, my vote goes to Esther for delivering one awesomely fiery burn to Bev.

I really don't understand how the Countess has the most votes. Yes she appears in a fantastic episode but her character is literally just a stereotype of a rich royal and she really doesn't have anything special or different about her. At least Angelyne and the ship have a personality...

I'd say being a class 3 yacht is fairly unique.

Yeah but the Planet Express Ship is ... a ship.

Ship beat yacht

Countess is always a classic choice... She was shown with Bender with all of the other couples just before Fry and Leela's almost-kiss. I do wonder how things would've went if she survived the Black Hole and the two returned back to normal life. Did she know that her diamond bracelet was a fake? Was she putting on an act? We'll never know...

Angleyne wasn't the traditional sweet-and-reserved lover like the Countess, but she did like Bender's impulsiveness. While she isn't my favorite, she does have Flexo.

Planet Express ship was a great character- good while she lasted (we can't have Sigourney Weaver star in every appearance of the ship, and it would get creepy after a while if the ship kept consistent cognizance).

Lucy Liu's head-in-a-jar has to be one of the worst characters to grace the show. Most fans don't like it when celebrities star as themselves, and I'm with them. She wasn't funny (well, that funny) and was thrown into the show as name placement. And her and Bender's relationship did nothing.

Fanny is actually probably my favorite fembot. While not the best lover of Bender's, I love how cute she is. I liked her beauty mark and absolutely adored how her tail fan would spin when she gets excited like a dog wagging its tail. Does that make me a sick robosexual?!? Stop looking condescendingly at me!

Bella was no Fanny, and I actually think she's a man-bot. What else would make her ring?

And Bev was just trash- a one-night stand. The episode's basis of Bender learning robot reproduction was stupid, but that's beside the point.

I guess no love for Femputer in this poll. Femputer was pretty fun of a character. A good quickie for Bender. If Femputer was on this poll, I'd vote for her. But instead, I voted for Fanny because of my own personal inclination- not who best compliments Bender. I don't think Bender needs a compliment. He's not a one-fembot manbot. Bender's a lone wolf. A solitary eagle. A cuddly baby tapir. And that's why we love him!
