The Honking for me. Just because it's a silly, dare I say cartoonish, concept. It was still funny though.

Even though I do rather like that episode, I'd agree that the were-car situation is indeed a bit too farfetched.

When I first saw it i really hated (well as much as you can hate futurama) Futurestock but know i like it so now i'd say Insane in the Mainframe
Aw, shoot, I love "Insane in the Mainframe." But I do agree that "Future Stock" is one of those episodes that sort of grows on you, simply because it's so un-sci-fi (the stock market in the year 3000--big flippin' deal), and it takes a few viewings to get used to that. It's definitely one of the more underrated episodes, though. (I believe a few of us actually discussed that point in the "Best Episode Ever" thread. Damn, are we nerds.)

You mean "Stark Raving Dad"? 'Cause I really love that episode of The Simpsons, too. Perhaps I just have an inborn appreciation of episodes that explore mental illness. Can't imagine why that would be...

Best line in the episode definitely has to be "Hey Mom look at my butt!" If only the first choice of reply from Mom had made it past the censors. 'You call that an anus?'

Well, off that Deep South reference, I'd like to mention three episodes that I like, but don't like the endings to (all happen to be from S2).
The Deep South, The Problem With Popplers, and The Cryonic Woman.
My main problems with these episodes is that they all end in unbelievable ways for me. In the first and third Fry decides to abandon his life in NNY for no adequate reason (for me). I mean, we all know that no matter what a reset button is going to be hit and everything will return to normal, but that's no excuse to have a character perform a completely illogical action. Why the hell would Fry abandon NNY (and his entire new life there) for two female characters who weren't interesting in the first place? It's too much of a stretch for me.
On TPWP, I never liked the ending because it's a lucky break. Out of nowhere, Jrrr comes in and saves Leela from being eaten by Lrrr. It's just so written. I mean, the kid seemingly comes from nowhere (they could have at least had Leela mention that she brought him or something) and Fry and Bender to nothing to save their friend. The writers couldn't have done anything else? They couldn't have had Fry go and get Jrrr as a backup plan to the Orangutan failing? I know this one seems needlessly picky, but it always sours the end of the episode for me.

Even these episodes have their great moments, though.

Yeah! If you want to hear one of mom's greatest lines, check out the raging bender deleted scenes Make that bitch your bitch, you bastard!It's just hard to believe the woman who did the voice for Dot of The Animaniacs also does Mom's. I live in the Atlanta area so this episode was a treat for me. All those references to the city were cool.
I was born in Marietta myself. A pity they couldn't put in a reference to the miserable beltway highway.

She also does voices on the simpsons. She's called Tress macniel
I bet Ralph Snart did not know that.

For me it would have to be Bending in the Wind. I hate Beck and..... well that's about it. Oh and, The Cryogenic Women blows as well. I can't stand Michelle.

Perhaps you'd be much happier posting on a beginner forum
Heh, "My First Forum"... I'll agree on the Cryonic Woman but TMLH is one of my favorites because it defines Leela's strength of character beautifully.She is urged by the professor to let them perish in the fountain, and she does think about it for a few seconds,but she selflessly plunges into the fountain extends her hand and pulls most to safety.
Yeah, "Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles" is one of my favorite episodes, too. I like how it utilizes the entire PE crew to a certain extent, but also keeps itself grounded emotionally when it comes to Leela, her relationship with her parents, and what was essentially her lost childhood.

I dont believe hes 10 years old, he wouldnt understand half the things in the show...... wait a minute. Also many people on several occasions have tried to help him understand the rules (not me because im only new aswell and well i get annoyed easily and hes extremly infuriating). Surely you have to consider everyone elses sanity when you use the internet, maybe when hes older and knows how to work a computer then he should consider interacting with people online.
This guy is clearly not 10 years old, he may indeed have the mental capacity of a 10 year old, but then again that is pretty unfair on the majority of 10 year olds! He didnt add an age to his profile until recently, obviously trying to be a smart asss! Doesnt cut it im afraid!! Oh and Nixons head my friend, i for one am a total nerd and sure as hell proud of it!
I'm going off his profile, which shows 10 years old. If he's a lot older, then he needs to grow up quickly. Back on topic. I've thought long & hard about this, but I can't come up with a "worst" episode. I think all the Futurama episodes are still heads & tails way better than anything on TV right now; great dialog (just reading some of the scripting makes me laugh out loud), hilarious voice characterizations, awesome animation. I guess, if I had to pick one I like least, it would be "The Cryonic Woman"...
