Dwight for me. Not only an absolutely unsubstantial character, he also wastes Cubert's potential. The son of Farnsworth can work at the series if his annoying and know-all facet is exploited, but when he pairs off with Dwight, the result is ugly and tasteless.

Ironic really, cause there are only two episodes where he is an important character, namely "The Route of All Evil" and "Bender Should Not Be Allowed on Television", are both episodes I personally like, especially the latter.
Then again, I guess in the latter, Bender makes up for most of it, as the whole Dwight/Cubert/Tinny Tim story seems only to serve as a method of moving the plot along.

Aw no, Boxy is one of my favourite characters.
Agreed about Flexo, though. I, too, don't find him funny in the least.
Flexo was pretty good in 'The Lesser of Two Evils' but in 'Bendless Love' the joke surrounding him had become slightly old.
To be honest, I don't like The Lesser of Two Evils that much either. The Bender-Flexo storyline got old the second time I watched it. And it's a shame, considering that most of the other gags are brilliant (the Cop Department thing, Past-o-rama, the "feast your eyes on this!" scene, Fry and the radiator...). But a handful of good jokes isn't enough to build a good episode, especially if the plot is thin.

Anyone who said Zoidberg should leave immedietly.
I cannot believe nobody has said Mom yet. Easily the least funny character driven by stupid insults which only make me upset.
DOWN WITH THAT BITCH MOM.

What about the cops? Are they really funny at all? Nope. Or are they?! Nope
Oh come on, as far as unfunny cops go, Smitty and URL aren't bad. Who then should be the pair of cops on Futurama? Mom and Nixon's head? Randy and the store clerk guy*? * Seller of stink lizards and LightSpeed™ briefs

Have Mom and Nixon ever been on screen together? Seems like a slam dunk comedy-wise. Also, a grand slam for evil.

I guess so I just don't find any of the cop humor that great, especially the randomness of Colleen being a cop in BWABB. I agree, they should make Randy a cop! I would take more Cubert and Dwight. And I know, I know they are not a giant part of the show, they just make me cringe, and not in the good way that Cubert is suppose to. That was really my only character beef, I love mom, and am tolerant of Guenther.
