Most unknown episode

[on:]

What do you think are the most unknown episodes of Futurama? I think "Bendless Love" is up there.

I think a better word would be forgettable than unknown. For me, Birdbot of Icecatraz and Bender Gets Made have always been really forgettable to me, despite being fairly good episodes. Also found alot of Season 7A really forgettable.

Most people seem to forget about "Crimes of the Hot" for some reason.  Also "Birdbot of Ice Catraz".

Free Will Hunting and 31st Century Fox as well.

Also The Day The Earth Stood Stupid.

I never see people mentioning 'Bend Her' on here. In fact, it seems that other than a few key episodes, Season 4 has the most overlooked-yet-great episodes.

That should be a game. Every PEELer should try and name every episode from memory, no cheating. Send em all to an adjudicator, see which episode gets missed out most.

Ehh, given how familiar a lot of us are with the episode order, I don't think it'd be too hard.

Also, what the hell does "unknown episode" mean? By pure definition, the answer would have to be Fry Eats a Scorpion.

"Fry Eats a Scorpion" is so underlooked, it doesn't even show up on some episode lists.

EDIT: Damn it; beaten by Beamer.

The episodes that I see brought up the least would be:

-A Big Piece of Garbage
-I Second That Emotion
-Put Your Head on my Shoulders
-A Bicyclops Built for Two
-The Birdbot of Ice-Catraz
-The Cyber House Rules
-Where the Buggalo Roam
-The Route of All Evil
-Bendin' in the Wind
-Future Stock (other than me )
-The 30% Iron Chef
-Crimes of the Hot
-Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles (I know this one's really popular, but I rarely see it discussed)
-Spanish Fry
-The Duh-Vinci Code
-Lrrreconcilable Ndndifferences
-Benderama
-Ghost in the Machines
-Decision 3012
-31st Century Fox
-Leela and the Genestalk

I think A Taste of Freedom seems to be a forgotten episode.  Loved it, but it seems like most don't know about it.

Overclockwise is probably the episode that is the most discussed.

Overclockwise is probably the episode that is the most discussed.

And thus, this post is completely off-topic.

I don't think you're right though. Meanwhile probably holds the crown at the moment.

[Reply #12 on:]

No. For a finale episode, Meanwhile gets surprisingly little discussion.

[Reply #13 on:]

Okay, go look at all the review threads and tell me which one has the most replies. I don't think it's Overclockwise.

I like this idea. Are you willing to BE that adjudicator, Burnsy?

Otherwise we're left with a bunch of people talking about whatever "obscure" episode came to mind, which is itself a fatally flawed methodology.

[Reply #15 on:]

Agreed, I like that idea as well. It'd decide once and for all what episode truly is the most forgotten episode of the series. (I'm betting it's 31st Century Fox)

I actually agree with Kurt on this one. There's nothing wrong with the episode really, it's just not very memorable and I often just forget it exists.

This is a fantastic idea. How would we do it? I'd like to see a few people try to name them all off the top of their head via video or something, to ensure no one cheats... Not that there's really any purpose in cheating, since it destroys the point of the game entirely, but still, would be interesting to see.

[Reply #17 on:]

I'm not sure how effective that'd be. I could probably name every episode (maybe not in the perfect order), and even if I did miss one, it may not necessarily be an "unknown" one.

[Reply #18 on:]

Fuck it.
