Now when did that happen again?

Ask generic episode questions here, why not.  Forget which episode something happened in?  Ask here.  Wanna know the name of a song?  Ask here.  Want to ask anything futurama-related that really doesn't deserve a new thread?  I think you get the idea by now.

I'll start.  When did Fry say "Is this going to cross one of those lines man was never meant to cross?" with the Professor responding by holding up his fingers about half an inch apart?

[Reply #1 on:]

Referring to the Professor implanting the emotion chip on Bender in "I Second That Emotion".  Is this a reference thread or a game?

[Reply #2 on:]

i think it's a thread, not a game. But thanks for playing!

is there an echo in here?

The UK hasn't seen any of Season 4 yet but I'm wondering if any of the 4 episodes aired sinse December 9th 2001 have an internet scene in them?

I didn't look in the review threads because I didn't want to be spoiled.

[Reply #6 on:]

No, not yet

[Reply #7 on:]

there arent any (production) season 5 episodes

Ooops, my mistake. I'll just go and edit that

Seems like as good a thread as any to ask this: In "The Deep South" when Bender makes his big fishhook, he uses Hermes "Manwhich" as bait. What is a Manwich? Just a silly name, or something punny?

I have a feeling I'm missing the joke regarding this "Manwich" thing.

[Reply #10 on:]

a manwich is a brand name of a type of sloppy joe mix (you add ground beef)

[Reply #11 on:]

I always thought it was a sandwich made from humans.   

[Reply #12 on:]

  Urgh, the manwich looks gross.
I always thought the manwich was just a pun.

If I remember the original adverts from the '70s the tag line was "It's a sandwich - made for a man"  not "made from a man" Morbo3000.

It's a sloppy joe with a 'fancy' name - still evil, no matter what you call it.

VF - I'm afraid to know where you found that pic.  It's cool.

[Reply #14 on:]

filthy crab- i did an image search on google, thats the best that came up

it's like a tomato based sauce with peppers and onions and you mix it with ground beef and serve it on a bun.  It's not quite barbeque, not quite a hamburger.

[Homer]but man! heh-heh-heh[/Homer]

Thanks VF.  No big joke lost there.

[Reply #16 on:]

I have a question: Which is the ep when Fry is naked, or at least almost naked (in his undies)?? Need to know, cause I was gonna try to do a fan-art by request from Juliet on CRU...

[Reply #17 on:]

"I, Roommate". When he wakes up at PE in the start of the episode.

Or wearing Lightspeed Briefs in "A Fishfull of Dollars".

[Reply #18 on:]

Love and Rocket about 9.15 mins through in their appartment!

[Reply #19 on:]

"A Head in the Polls", when Bender has nightmares about O's, 1's and 2.

[Reply #20 on:]

Or in Space Pilot 3000 when he was on the probulator.

[Reply #21 on:]

When did Fry say "It's like sex, except I'm having it" again? Haven't been able to remember all week :/

[Reply #22 on:]

"The Problem With Popplers" - after tasting the Popplers for the first time.

welcome to PEEL Matty! 

[Reply #25 on:]

ok i have a question...

when will they ever talk about hermes' parents? or zoidberg's? oh wait...zoidberg's died when they mated...nevermind hehehe...but that still leaves the question of hermes parents...

[Reply #26 on:]

Hermes is a grown man with a wife and kid(s?).  Why would anyone care about his parents?

[Reply #27 on:]

i could go for a burn, but i wont

well because we learned everything else about everyone elses parents, its his turn dammit! 

[Reply #28 on:]

We haven't learned about Farnsworth's parents.  Or Nibbler's parents.

[Reply #29 on:]

they grow up so fast

[Reply #30 on:]

Farnsworth's ancestry has a lot more potential to be interesting than most of these people, though.

[Reply #31 on:]

Well, there is the farnsworth paradox.

Show spoiler

I am guessing he is from the alternate dimension, based on some things said from the dvd and the description of the episode (hiding something... a cowboy hat maybe?)

[Reply #32 on:]

but he's related to Fry.  and it's a paraBOX isn't it?

[Reply #33 on:]

The name of the episode is The Farnsworth Parabox?  Is that what you are saying?

the real word is paradox.

par·a·dox
n.
1 A seemingly contradictory statement that may nonetheless be true: the paradox that standing is more tiring than walking.
2 One exhibiting inexplicable or contradictory aspects.
3 An assertion that is essentially self-contradictory, though based on a valid deduction from acceptable premises.
4 A statement contrary to received opinion.

Show spoiler

Not saying he isn't related to Fry, but maybe he came from the other dimension and replaced the "real" farnsworth... the alternate dimension is exactly the same except everyone is a cowboy, right?  So he would still be related to fry and alternate fry

Cowboy Farnsworth was clearly shown in I Dated A Robot, so I wouldn't bet on that. Unless they both switched places, but what possible purpose would that serve?

[Reply #35 on:]

ok, ok i have a good question thats been bugging me...

in what episode was it where they were loading two of every animal on something and bender said "why two" and it was either leela or fry who whispered to him and then bender said "oh..." and got that weird randy look hehe, i dunno, today i had a flashback of remembering talking about that in 8th grade...i think it might be from season 1

[Reply #36 on:]

That was Love's Labors Lost in Cyberspace

[Reply #37 on:]

was that the episode where leela and zapp do it? i forget...oh wait! they were gonna blow up that one planet huh...ok its all coming back to me now...

[Reply #38 on:]

One and the same

"The jackass wants to see you in his quarters"

[Reply #39 on:]

A question of interpretation

In "Love and Rocket," when the ship said "You can play around with my buttons until you find something we both enjoy," was she basically saying "You can play around with my boobs until you find something we both enjoy?"
