This ep isn't canon.
Remember though, the events of TLPJF; this is a universe where the Professor shot Eleanor Roosevelt. That could easily have messed up (in this Futurama universe) what was established in the episodes before that (the other Futurama universe). Scruffy: Yeah. That'll hold up to scrutiny.

Not universe; iteration.

There's some other things though, is Hermes being decapited in some way become a trend within the show Well, there is that Season 7 ep in which Hermes gets cybernetic limbs I believe, so perhaps it will become a regular thing that he gets dismembered in some way ...

Maybe he has some special condition/gene that allows him to survive dismemberment?

I thought that was Big Foot?

Yetis are not mentioned in "Spanish Fry", only Big Foot.

I personally don't see it fitting in, seeing as how the Yeti was encountered years before she was born. Maybe if they had to go kill another one or something..

I was thinking of when Farnsworth was turning into a yeti. Maybe she could have at least tried to communicate with him.
For a second I forgot about that. The episode was already rushed though, I don't think the pacing would have worked. :/ But it could have.

Also I'm surprised Amy's ability to speak Yeti wasn't factored in this episode
I forgot she could do that! Then again, what can't Amy do? But, yes, that's a big missed opportunity. That could've worked very well in the episode.
Indeed, it could have been done and it would have helped enrich the continuity of the show. Not that not having her speak yeti goes against it, but having her speak it in this ep would surely have helped make it stronger and have been all-round cloolsome...

I thought of that, Otis. Like have the Professor mumble what appeared to be gibberish before he turned Yeti and have Amy translate what he was saying, but not be sure why he was speaking that way.

Oh, the amount of missed opportunity in this episode could fill a swimming pool. Or a small lake.

They should have invited Peel to the table read for this ep. Could you imagine how much better the eps would've been if we all saw the animatics and told them what could be improved and changed before they went into final animation? I'd be more than willing to donate my services for free to help aid them in the production of Season 7, if they offered that is ...
