Forgive me if this has been posted already, in V.1 of the goof thread or whatever. I noticed that in Love's Labours Lost in Space, while Kif is leading Leela to the Zapper's private quarters, another Doop soldier passes going somewhere else.  A woman! But in War is the H Word, we find that the army has instituted a men-only policy. Hmm...

No, the extra left arm she suddenly seems to have. On www.ilovebender.com in the Gallery that picture has been corrected so she only has two.

It's not edited, the third arm goes away after a few frames. I have a feeling it was deliberate, since there would otherwise be too much Amy Wong on screen
(Kryten, what are you doing with that knife???)

When Lars stops by the PE building to drop off Hermes new jar, there is a point twhere you can here billy west say "Horray!", but I cant tell if it is supposed to be Lars or Fry in a sarcastic voice, I played this over about 20 times and still cant figure it out. Is there an error here, or am I losing my mind? If I'm thinking of the right one, I think it's Fry's line, 'Oh Hooray, it's Lars and his wonderful jars.'

As for Amy, she probably had it grafted on to help wth her ski-boxing. Baccilicoccus wouldn't make a differnece. The '-coccus' part mean spherical (or lmost spherical.) And Bender's eyes go from red to black a few times.

I'm not sure if this is a goof or not. Actally, I'm not sure what this is....
But anyway, while I was watching "Spanish Fry" again during the Adult Swim marathon, I noticed something interesting.
When Fry and the others reach the place that sells human horn, look at the store's sign. It says "The Beast with Backs" or something like that.
I wonder if that could be foreshadowing or just a simple hint/reference to the next movie, The Beast With A Billion Backs.
EDIT: I noticed something else as well. In the episode, "The Cryonic Woman", there is a line that Fry says to Michelle.
He says something like, "I miss the year 3000, where brains flew through space and everyone ate lasters." O.O
I thought the brains-flying-through-space part of the line was interesting, because at this point, the events of "The Day The Earth Stood Stupid" haven't happened yet. I'm not sure if that line was just something funny, a hint about this event, or if it was supposed to be foreshadowing. ^^;

Maybe being frozen for 1,000 years naturally caused it to change color? But if that were the case, the same would have happened for Fry...

One of the more glaring recurring continuity goofs...the technology for preserving living heads in jars was created by Ron Popeil at some point after Fry was frozen in 1999, yet there are countless celebrities and historical personages who died long before 1999 whose heads appear in the year 3000 (Richard Nixon and the old-timey presidents like George Washington and Chester A. Arthur come to mind). And another thing...how does Fry know who Lucy Liu is? Aside from her role on Ally McBeal, she wasn't hugely famous when Fry was frozen in '99.

Still, if Fry's dream was to "date a beautiful celebrity", there were a lot more famous women he probably would have thought of on the spot while browsing the [Kid]Nappster website. Liu didn't become famous famous until after '99 (Charlie's Angels, Kill Bill, ect.). It's kind of like on Mystery Science Theater 3000 how Joel/Mike could make riffs referencing movies and TV shows that came out after they were confined to the Satellite Of Love.

On one of the DVD commentaries, Matt Groening said he actually considered giving his human characters five fingers to differentiate the show from the Simpsons universe, but caved due to the traditional reasons why cartoon characters have only four digits (i.e. it's just easier to draw). It might have been funny if Fry had five fingers, and woke up in the year 3000 to discover that mankind had evolved to the point where they dropped a finger, and thus no one understood what he was getting at when he tried flipping the bird.

Can somebody tell me why Nudar's Platinum Doom-Proof Vest can protect him from a doomsday explosion but not from a Bending Unit's auto-destruct explosion?

Usually this refers to spaceCase.

Hmmm, I thought that Bender might be speaking actual ancient Egyptian in that scene. It would only take a few calls to some Professors to get one line. Seems like a the nerdy thing to do. I'll have to check the the first script draft on the DVD sometime today.
