Today is The Luck of the Fryrish

[Reply #241 on:]

Is it just me or does Fry (in the non-flashback scenes) come across a bit whiney, in an unsympathetic way, in this episode?

[Reply #242 on:]

All younger brothers are whiny. I was.

[Reply #243 on:]

I love this episode. The ending is so sweet. I love how they choose who name's Fry. "You pick. I picked dinner last night." I love the beginning of this episode.. not sure why. You gotta love how committed to sports Fry's mom is.... listening to sports while giving birth remembering dates by what happens in certain games. This ep is very well written and the end always gets me.

They are whiny. hobbitboy what do you mean by unsympathetic way?

[Reply #244 on:]

This one has all the things that make Futurama great wrapped into one episode. Plus I've always loved Fry's dad.

Mr. Fry: "Son, your name is Yancy, just like me and my grandfather and so on. All the way back to minuteman Yancy Fry, who blasted commies in the American Revolution."

This ep is very well written and the end always gets me.

I'm not afraid to admit that I agree with that one.

[Reply #245 on:]

I did it I WATCHED ALL THE EPISODES!!!!!!!!!!     I just finished the devils hands are idle playthings and tommorrow im gonna watch  BBS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Reply #246 on:]

Less smileys please. You, bender, broke PEEL's lovely lines.

Can you please edit it before I go mad?

[Reply #247 on:]

Ummm... What the fuck is with all the smilies?

Good to see a guy admit that this episode get to them....

[Reply #248 on:]

The end of the Luck of the Fryrish always gets me too.

I'm a wuss clearly

[Reply #249 on:]

You are.... just kidding. It is a tear jerking ending... I love it.

[Reply #250 on:]

one of my all-time favorites.  Bender's Big Score took alot of the tear-jerkiness out of it for me, though.  Stupid retcon...

[Reply #251 on:]

Yeah BBS did that to me too. They totally ruined it but I can just deny the existance of BBS in the Futurama universe, or something. Luck of the Fryrish is one of my favorite episodes I don't want it ruined by that movie.

THIS PAGE IS BROKEN 

 

[Reply #253 on:]

Damn page. Can someone fix it?

Today is The Bird-bot of Ice-catraz

I really liked this episode. It's on of my favorites even though some don't consider it the best.

[Reply #254 on:]

It's certainly high up on my list. The penguins are great:

"Full of fish?"

"Not entirely."

"Then let's fish!"

Making Bender temporary captain is a great story device which let's us see how egotistical he can get. And I like Leela's moral dilemma about killing penguins to save them and that she feels she has to kill whole families to avoid leaving orphans. Aw.

Bloody page is annoying me.

[Reply #255 on:]

It always bothered me that when Bender claps it has that humanclapping fleshhand sound, instead of metal.

And to a lesser extent, when spaceships brake, they make a rubber tires on road skidding sound.

[Reply #256 on:]

I got my philosophy on life from this one.

Bender: "Yeah, life is hilariously cruel."

[Reply #257 on:]

I really did enjoy this episode. Free Waterfall Senior was hilarious. "But your hands between your buttocks, that's nature's pocket!"

[Reply #258 on:]

I like this ep. Free Waterfall Sr is funny. I love then end. When Bender thinks that he is a penguin.... that was funny.


Damn spammer person... ruined the bloody page...

[Reply #259 on:]

Congratulations to you, bender.

[Reply #260 on:]

I dont understand your sarcasm gudbjorg. Btw wtflip is wrong with the page my resolution is all terrible

[Reply #261 on:]

Today is: Bendless Love

Flexo!!

Bear the page is stretched because of all the damn smilies...

[Reply #262 on:]

Can a mod please delete or edit that damn post and fix this.

Also. Bendless love. Poor Bender

[Reply #263 on:]

not my favorite episode, but we're now officially halfway through the marathon!  Only 37 more episodes to go...

[Reply #264 on:]

Also. Bendless love. Poor Bender

More like poor Zoidberg, his loveable pet slinky exploded.

[Reply #265 on:]

"Look, there on the screen! It's that guy you are!"

How Fry never features on lists such as "100 Greatest TV Characters" is beyond me, he should be at number one.

[Reply #266 on:]

I think this episode is so good it deserves 14 comments in quick succession to get us onto page 8 and off this DAMN BROKEN PAGE!

I particularly love how Bender feels the need to put on a fake voice when he's pretending to be Flexo on the phone.

[Reply #267 on:]

Hi Shepherd do you like lemon merangue pie?

[Reply #268 on:]

Not a big fan of desserts in general. I prefer something a little more savory.

And remember people: Flashing your scab cash 3 times in a night club will get you in trouble with the Robot Mafia.

Edit: Complaining in the test thread about that post was a good idea.

[Reply #269 on:]

More like poor Zoidberg, his loveable pet slinky exploded.

Agreed Zoidberg is worse off...

[Reply #270 on:]

Today is The Day the Earth Stood Stupid

The plot thickens...

[Reply #271 on:]

First appearance of the Hypnotoad!

Also, I love how Fry's neck is twisted 450 degrees during his "death" at the end.

[Reply #272 on:]

I cant let tomorrow arrive without mentioning the Nibblonians. So I mentioned them.

I, personally, don't like the expansion of the Nibblonian story in BG; they just took away their mystery and sense of power by letting Mom imprison them so easily.

On a slightly related note:

one of my all-time favorites (Luck of the Fryrish).  Bender's Big Score took alot of the tear-jerkiness out of it for me, though.  Stupid retcon...

I can see that being a problem with BBS, but since it was a time travel movie, they had to go back and "change" a few things. The way I see it, it all happened anyway and somehow the many altered timelines have merged (that's the essence of paradox correcting).

"It not white whale, it grey thinky whale!"

[Reply #274 on:]

I like the day the Earth Stood Stupid. I can't really say much as I didn't get around to watching it due to painting my room.... I'll watch it today and I'll also watch today's episode That's Lobstertainment!...

[Reply #275 on:]

Ah yes. That's Lobstertainment. Not one of the finest but I don't know why it was disliked so much.

[Reply #276 on:]

Fry: "What was that? A tar dolphin or a tar shark?"

Classic Fry.

[Reply #277 on:]

I have no idea why this one is disliked. For a start it has lots of Calculon (who I always thought was a very popular character).

"I'm programmed to be very busy right now."

And if there's a made up movie I desperately want to see it has to be "Bravehead".

Zoidberg-centric episodes tend to be unpopular it seems, and since the writers have deliberate written the Decapodians in a stereotypically Jewish style you could even argue that to dislike those episodes is anti-semitic. It's a weak argument but you could try it.

Anyway, it is actually one of my favourites. I love uncle Zoid and was very pleased to see him make a cameo in BWABB.

Yay, yeah, I've been saying that all along.
There are definitely worse episodes.

I, personally, don't like the expansion of the Nibblonian story in BG; they just took away their mystery and sense of power by letting Mom imprison them so easily.

Agree with that also.  And TDTESS was highly excellent.

One of those ones that I always wished would have gone on longer.

[Reply #279 on:]

Not the best episode but it's not one of the worst. After watching it again a couple of weeks ago it was certainly funnier than I'd remembered.

"Good Morning, Mr Vice President!"

That always cracks me up.
