who would you leave behind

[:]

The Nimbus + Planet expres ship colide only Kif + Zapp    were on board 1 ship is usable but can only hold 9 who gets left behind?

[#1 :]

Scruffy, no one cares about him.

[#2 :]

 Zapp was on that list, I voted him.

[#3 :]

Scruffy.

[#4 :]

Zapp because everyone who you saved would demand it.

[#5 :]

Scruffy, he doesnt have a real meaning, like he doesnt come up much in the show

[#6 :]

Well, I should vote for Zoidberg on the principle that he's the least liked character of the group, but there's just something about leaving Zapp stranded on a damned spacecraft that I find appealing.

[#7 :]

I vote Scruffy I bet no one would notice he is gone.

[#8 :]

Zapp, even though leaving Amy is tempting.

Also. Scruffy is cool and doesn't deserve to be left behind.

[#9 :]

scruffy he isnt as good as the others

[#10 :]

Also Scruffy doesn't play as big of a rool in the plot as all the other characters.

[#11 :]

Leela, because she's got one eye! 

[#12 :]

^prejudiced!!!!! (or would it be racist, against mutants?) ^

anyway, Amy, definitely, she is too out of place at Planet Express

[#13 :]

I'd leave Zapp sooner than Scruffy, because Scruffy at least wouldn't cause harm to others by his continued existence.  He's not as amusing as Zapp, but he's funny enough every now and then, and I bet wave after wave of DOOP crewmen would sing your praises forever after.

[#14 :]

ypu need zapp for comic relief though. scruffy is a pretty boring chacter

[#15 :]

Scruffy is obviously one of the, if not the, most vital characters in Futurama. You just can't leave him behind; how would the rest of the crew cope? How could the show go on? I mean, technically it can't anyway at the moment, but you know what I mean...

I vote Zapp. What has he ever done for anybody except send them on uselessly futile suicide missions and cause them major embarassment for the rest of their lives (Leela)?

I completely fail to understand how anyone could dislike Scruffy. Neither do I understand how you would sooner leave him behind rather than someone like Zapp who causes nowt but trouble wherever he goes.

Crackheads, the lot 'o ya. Minus perhaps Arkan and Shiny. And you Aristobulus. No crackhead could think up a name like that, let alone pronounce it.

[#19 :]

Hey, stop bashin' crackheads.  Umm, I mean....

In a just universe, Zapp would of course be "left behind", to quote a popular book.  But Futurama doesn't assume a just universe.  It posits a hilarious universe.

Now, Scruffy does have some pretty good jokes and gags, once in a while, I'll give him that.  But he could be jettisoned while leaving the more-joke-providing Cap'n Zapp, and plenty more jokes would be saved.

So, though the question asked was whom I would leave behind (and honestly Zapp would be out of the airlock immediately if I had to live with him), in comic terms, we could do away with Scruffy more easily without endangering as many possible riotously funny potential main plots.

[#20 :]

I wouldn't leave Amy or Scruffy behind.  Amy is rich , so you might get some compensation (monetary or some other type).  Scruffy is cool, he stays out of everyone's way and doesn't bother anyone.  I would leave Zoidberg behind, its the only merciful thing to do.

[#21 :]

I would leave Zapp behind.  Because I don't like his character.  I'd even take Zoidberg over Zapp.  I would take all the characters expect Zapp. 

[#22 :]

I'd leave Zapp behind.

[#23 :]

Yeah very good point too!

Perhaps true: But, he does have a lifetime subscription to "National Pornographic."

No, wait - liability has a point.  What if Zoidberg lopped off Zapp's head and attached it to Scruffy's shoulders?

Granted, Zapp has a fat head, but if everyone also left all their shoes & boots behind, I think that would be enough...

And Zapp could just be a loudmouth growth on a janitor's shoulder for the rest of his life.   

[#28 :]

Scruffy. He'd just sit there, thumbing through his magazines

[#29 :]

I hate Zapp Brannigan. He's too weird and too retarded. I think he should burn in hell. (No offence for Zapp fans, but this is my opinion.)

[#30 :]

No, wait - Shiny has a point! Zapp is pretty damn fat. Just "loose" the flab and you should be away quite happily.

That is if you want to save him...

[#31 :]

I voted for Zapp because Scruffy is coolest than Zapp!

[#32 :]

Zapp. At least scruffy might possibly do some janitorial work, where as Zapp would most likely  sacrifice everyone but Kif and Leela to save himself.

[#33 :]

FRY!

Anyone say sarcasim? I say do that head transplant for three people and throw the bodies overboard! So would save themm al but who Zapp, Bender and Professor. Bender could get a new body, and Pressfor has a few yers left. Otherwise Zapp

[#34 :]

No, but I distincly heard sarcasm.

[#35 :]

It can't be scruffy; I'm convinced that without him everyone at Planet Express would be doomed.

I can't explain this rationally, but in my gut I know it to be true.

Zapp, no-brainer.

[#36 :]

If I was living in their world, probably Zapp because he's an arrogant buffoon. But in terms of the show, I reckon Kif is the most dispensable... Scruffy is a far less major character, but Kif had lost something by the end, and I wouldn't be sad to see him go.

[#37 :]

What?  You'd jettison Kif, leaving his smizzmar Amy to raise their children alone?  Oh, what a cold, dark heart your universe has.

Besides, the answer is obvious.  Doy and smeesh!  Bender can survive without oxygen or other life support systems.  (See Love and Rockets.)  Even if he had to eject and float through space (see Godfellas) he'd still survive.

Not that he'd go willingly, but hey, nine to one!

(Yeah, I initially voted to leave Zapp.  Goodness, who wouldn't wish to?  But logic -- as explained to me by Leela -- has convinced me that in real life, the robot is expendable.  Also, the box said, "No!" )

[#38 :]

Yay still no one voted Bender

[#39 :]

And I'll shoot the one who suggested leaving Leela behind... she's bloody unique! Anyone but her!
