Farnsworth Region: #1 Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth vs #17 Stephen Hawking

[on:]

In the first match-up of the Farnsworth Region's second round, we have the Professor himself, hot off a bashing of Pazuzu, against Stephen Hawking, who threw Igner into a hawking hole. Who'll come out on top? Discuss now and voting starts at midnight tonight!

I can't decide! Curse you for making me have to make difficult decisions!

The Professor, easily. There's many, many, many lines and scenes that involve the Professor that make me laugh out loud.

"Over my dead body!" *Checks pulse*

* Stephen Hawking fires lasers from his eyes.

I did not know I could do that.

Farnsworth, because he's a much more important character (and probably my favorite of the secondaries)--but Hawking is still one of the best guest stars the show's ever had.

[Reply #5 on:]

Aww, sad to see Hawking go, but there's no way he can beat Farnsworth.

Which professor?!

I'm going with Farnsworth because he's one of the show's best main characters which is saying something. He's consistently hilarious and opening the show up to brilliant new storylines whereas Hawking has made a handful of amusing guest appearances as himself...

[Reply #7 on:]

Hawking was a great guest star, but he can't possibly beat an original professor character (especially when that professor is one of the main cast).

[Reply #8 on:]

Farnsworth, no doubt.
As I stated before: Though I consider the Simpsons Guest Hawking hilarious, the Futurama Guest Hawking somehow does not really work for me...

Which professor?!

I think the quote made it pretty obvious...

[Reply #10 on:]

Farnsworth. He's one of the few besides Zapp that I can see winning this thing. Of course, I'll be sad if Zapp doesn't win overall, but I'll also be happy if the Professor does. So overall I guess I'm... neutral.

No, I have no idea who you're on about.

[Reply #12 on:]

Hubert is a much more dignified name than Stephen.

Season 6 hater!

Professey. I like him better and he invents all of his stuff instead of trying to claim other peoples stuff like he did in AOI1

Farnsworth wins 21-2. Continue discussion in the General thread.
