Perhaps someone who sits back and watches what happens, with a bag of popcorn. And perhaps they never get referred to, they just sit in the background watching.

How about a female human version of Bender, only less of an attention whore and more evil?

They could do a lot with that, like she could have a secret human/lifeform fetish etc... kinda like a reverse Juliet. =^.^= She would actually work hard, and plot harder, only her in-your-face interface would be too similar with Bender's, thus making them a incompatible couple (no pun intended). I could see someone having a walk-in Fry or Zoidberg shrine in her massive robot closet.

I really like that idea. And Fry could have a fling with her, thus making Leela realize that she lost him to a robot, and creating a very interesting competition between the cyclops and the fembot. And I'm going to shut up now.

And I'm going to shut up now. I'd like to see Fry try and kiss her and be electrocuted... say "Ow!", and repeat. -like the cupcake gag from The Simpsons. I don't think Leela would get too jealous... because she'd know that it can't last. She'd just be like "riiiiiight... good for you!" Or maybe she would get jealous, and date a manbot to get back at Fry... who knows... like I said, there's a lot that could happen with that.

But the fact that she irrationally risks her life and the lives of those around her by bonding with horrible flesh-devouring creatures is a part of Leela's charm!

No wallet would be safe within a km of P.E.! I can see Bender and FemBender competing not only for the attention of the crew, but for bragging rights to who's the better thief.

So you wanna make like MST3K?  You wanna call attention to the fact that Futurama is 'only' a TV show? No thanks. I'm quite happy suspending my disbelief.  Originally posted by FemJesse:

No thanks. I'm quite happy suspending my disbelief. What's MST3K? And no I don't want to call attention to him. I just want him sat in the background watching the show.

MST3K = "Mystery Science Theater 3000" It was a movie parody show for lack of a better term. There was a cast of one human and three (?) robots who would heckle B-movies all through the program. They were visible in sihllouette (sp?) at the bottom of the screen all through the movie, and would point out errors, plot holes, bad acting, continuity errors, and generally deride the whole flamin' movie from start to finish. I was never a great fan of the show, so I might not be completely correct. My point? I don't believe having a character like you describe really adds anything to the show. We (the fans) are the ones who 'sit back and watch what happens, with a bag of popcorn'. And we're never referred to, we just watch. The only time our comments might be referred to are in the DVD commentaries. Don't get me wrong; I'm all for excercizing one's 'creative muscles' using Futurama, but I don't think this particular idea adds anything to the show. My opinion only. That and a dollar might get you a cup of coffee....  |

I made up a character like this fem-bot person once... I think in order to describe her properly I have to explain her whole history, which might ruin fanfics if I ever wrote them... anyway... <description> About 67 years ago, Mom adopted a daughter, because the girl was an engineering genius. The daughter, named Mara, worked at the company, but was also sort of a publicity stunt, so she wasn't really abused or anything... just cursed at and occasionally slapped. When Mara was 19, she was perfecting a robot that imitated humanity almost perfectly--appearance, bodily functions, everything--in secret. She moved into the robot body somehow, possbily because she was dying, and after this she was imprisoned by a rival company, in a vague attempt at blackmail or something. The company was shut down, but Mara remained trapped in a cell for 50 years--not aging because she is now a robot. Then she is rescued/set free by Fry, of all people (for some reason), and he takes her back to Planet Express. No one knows who she is or that she's a robot, although the Professor occasionally thinks he recognizes her. Anyway, Fry falls in love with her. Leela gets jealous without really knowing why, Amy gets jealous because Mara is beautiful without having to excersise or diet. Bender unconsciously knows she is a robot, and falls in love with her, or at least in lust. Since everyone thinks she's a human, Bender just gets cranky and jealous. This goes on until Fry sleeps with her, and something happens that makes him realize she's a robot. Either she tells him, or... I don't know. Then Fry freaks out and tells everyone, Bender is relieved and instantly starts flirting with her, and... I don't know what else. </description> Obviously I haven't thought everything out. |
