I like Bender building the super collider in 'Less Than Hero'. In his face you don't see any of his usual cynisism, he's just concentrated and.. I don't know how to describe it..  it's just funny.

In the Farnsworth Parabox, the long and wonderful silence when Hermes is trying to make up his mind...

Edit: Oh I'm a bending unit now, apperantly. Joy!

[Reply #3 on:]

I have to agree with Nosebleed, that was very effective and intense use of silence...

[Reply #4 on:]

Nosebleed, I just became a Delivery Boy today, Hooray!

I haven't seen that episode yet. So far, I'd have to say one of the best visual gags is in Anthology of Interest 1 when Leela skewers Scruffy, Cubert, and Nibbler on the sword. No screams and the looks on their faces makes it great. Another good shot, not necessarily "gag," is when the puddle in Amazon Women in the Mood vibrates showing Leela with two eyes. Nice shot.

I forget the name of the episode, but when the crew have the barbecue at the Wong Ranch, and Zoidberg says he took the liberty of fertalising the caviar.  The look on Amy's dad's face (What's his name again?) is absolutely priceless.

"Where the Buggalo Roam" and his name is Leo.

[Reply #7 on:]

In The Sting right after Amy says "And Fry never left your side for a minute" It cuts to Fry gazing at Leela. His expression in so loving.

Also the expression on his face when he's hugging her. He looks so relieved.

I didn't cry during that ep, but i wanted to, and it was Fry's expressions that were doing it to me.

[Reply #8 on:]

Any time Bender looks angry for no reason, and also how Fry glares at Bender in the Honking after he says "I used to have a friend who liked to smell things with me!".

[Reply #9 on:]

i like in "The Cryonic Woman" when theyre sitting in the park. The blank expression on Fry's face when Leela is talking about the career chips is hilarious.

[Reply #10 on:]

The Professor's demonstration of how safe it is to mine on a comet, in Crimes Of The Hot.

I thought the look on Zoidy's face was funnier....heh

Some of my fave quiet moments....
- The look on Bender's face in Godfellas when he puts on the ears....

- In LOTF when Fry is kneeling at his brother's grave holding the clover after realising what happened....

- SP3K, Fry looking out of the window in the cryogenic building with his mouth wide open in shock....

that one is mine.
but another great one is hermes deciding whether or not to dump them into the sun.

In "The Problem With Popplers", after Leela says to Bender "And you were stepping on the for fun!", they show Bender in Fry's arm. Thier faces are hilarious there.

Agree with that, particular when he chews on it again.

Also agree with the AOI I scene when Leela muders Scruffy, Nibbler and Cubert.

In "Brannigan Begin Again" when Fry and Bender runs to Leela in the laundry-brig asking for help.

Leela: "Let me guess. He cancelled naptime?" [They shake their heads and she puts the folded sheet on top of a pile.] "He ran out of beer?" [They shake their heads again.] "So he's about to kill us?" [They nod.]

The look on Bender and Fry's faces are great.

[Reply #15 on:]

In Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles, Amy's face after Leo says "You so fat, you gonna stay all around room. Hee hee hee!"

[Reply #16 on:]

Oh, and Fry's face after Umbriel explains mermaid sex in The Deep South.

Hee...

[Reply #17 on:]

One of my all time fave silent moments is in Anthology Of Interest 1, when Fry asks Stephen Hawking if anybody has ever discovered a "hole in nothing with monsters in it"

The look on Hawking's face, it only lasts a second but it's like he's thinking "Oh my god we're all going to die....!"
Also he understands exactly what Fry is talking about, even though it's only a vague description.... So damn funny....

[Reply #18 on:]

Bender's dance in the background during the mail call in The Honking. I only noticed it after watching the episode about twelve times (it used to be in heavy rotation in the UK).

[Reply #19 on:]

In A Flight to Remember, when Zapp abandons the ship as it's about to enter a black hole, his expression as he sweeps past the screen in his capsule is diamond.

[Reply #20 on:]

The pause Fry makes whenever he learns he has a gay Grandfather. You can practically hear it sinking in.

Also, his innocent, unaware blink whenever he learns he's going to ride on the Titanic.

[Reply #21 on:]

The pause Fry makes after Enos says "But do you ever feel like you're only going with girls because you're supposed ta?". That was priceless.

[Reply #22 on:]

The pause between Michelle's screaming in "the cryonic woman".
Fry introduces her to Leela - she screams
to Bender - she screams
to the Professor - she looks at Fry, Fry nods his head, she screams.

[Reply #23 on:]

Any time Zap says something and Kiff just sighs... I know its not silent, but its not exactly words either... And he does look cool when he sighs...

[Reply #24 on:]

*bumpety*

I was just watching "Bender Get's Made" and i found another hilarious silent. It's when Leela walks into the PlanEx meeting late after Nibbler took her through the zoo. The look on Zoidberg's face when she accidentally sits on his lap instead of the empty chair next to him was hilarious.

[Reply #25 on:]

The Best Silent Scene was when Bender was in the car with Fry And Leela in A Lesser Of Two Evils And Fry Goes "Listen To that baby Pur" or something and Bender goes "There's a baby in there ey?" And then Bender's just sitting there. So funny

[Reply #26 on:]

It's just a small one but I always loved in the Deep South when Leela is talking about 'ocean madness' and everyone leaves the room and in the next scene u see her walk into the room with this angry annoyed expression on her face cos everyone had ignored her.  I dunno I just thought it was nicely done.
