And they never mention the "nasty pasty" to Leela at all. or maybe its a coincidence. Coincidence. They do however mention the "nasty pasty" to Fry in TWOF. By cosmic J: Obviously the writers wouldn't kill him off, but as in episodes like "The Sting" and "Put Your Head On My Shoulders" he suffers injuries that would kill people of today Not really. While a ruptured spleen is a serious injury, it's not exactly an insta-kill type of thing. Fry surviving is not particularly notworthy. Neither is the car-crash in PYHOMS. If Zoidberg is able to save Fry by attaching his head to Amy, it must be a very triviel operation. Amy doesn't seem that alarmed either, so it must be a pretty common thing in car-accidents. Is it possible for Fry to be killed? Yes, he is every bit as mortal as Leela, Zoidberg or Bender (but as a main character he wont be killed off). There is no basis in the show to call him "invincible".

Fry does work with the "so stupid but just so lucky". But of course there are the situations where there needs to be someone to save them to avoid plotholes. But then again they seem to avoid them cleverly. I think Fry's very mortal, it could be easy for him to die.

I don't know people would read so much into it. Because we're looking for something to latch onto and form some semblance of a life with (obviously we're all a bit confused on what the definition of a life actually is).  Seriously though, I guess it's just fun to speculate, especially when it comes to a show like Futurama. Anyway, I agree with wildeggplant and Venus. Part of the joke is that Fry's so stupid, and yet, in spite of his idiocy, he always comes out of a dangerous situation unscathed. It's funny. And, I wouldn't be suprised if Fry's being kept alive had something to do with the fact that he's integral to the survival of the human race (and all other races, for that matter). Sure, it's probably a long-shot, but...stranger things have happened in the Futurama-verse.

I think if they did that, it would probably be like the "Nasty in the pasty" in "Roswell that Ends Well" being brought up in "The Why of Fry"; not part of the plan from the beginning, but something that was convenient to use because it sort of fit. But yeah, it is possible. It might be a funny twist in the movie(s). Because we're looking for something to latch onto and form some semblance of a life with (obviously we're all a bit confused on what the definition of a life actually is). Tell me about it.... *steps outside* *flesh starts to burn* Ah! Natural sunlight!
