Farnsworth: "I'm sorry, the Smell-a-Scope isn't powerful enough.  Bender's odour is so mild, it's being overpowered by local sources."
(All glare at Zoidberg)
Zoidberg: "Hooray, people are paying attention to me!"

Here's my favorite Hermes quote:

To Bender: "You got broken, and became a folk singer!  Both out dreams came true!"

I think that's how the quote went like, correct me if I'm wrong.  I guess Hermes has it in for Bender as well as Zoidberg!

hermes: that's NOT a cigar.. and it's not mine!

Actualy, I like Hermes catch phrase, when he says "great something of yada-yada", like;

"great Honey Bee of Infinity!"

"Great three-toed sloth of ice planet Hoth!"

I know there have been a bunch of others, but I cant remember them all right now............

I pay a little more attention to Helmes than Sal.

Hermes is awsome!Labarbara is way better than him!Hermes and Labarbara are perfect for each other!!Hermes is so hot!!!

[Reply #47 on:]

LaBarbara is soo cool! Why is this thread pretty much dead?! Hermes is coo.

[Reply #48 on:]

Hermes is definitely one of my favs. His humor is real boring and dry, just like the neutrals. You don't exactly laugh out loud at most of his bits, but you think about them a lot later.

He decided not to off himself because he realized that life isn't about the badges that others give you, it's about just getting the chance to file. That is deep.

Oh yeah and does anyone know what Labarbara says in his song "Something when wron when my man..."
I can never understand her.

[Reply #49 on:]

LaBarbra- But something changed when my man turned pro,
Hermes- I was sorting but I wasn’t smiling.
LaBarbra- He forgot it’s not about badges and rank,
Hermes- It’s supposed to be about the filing!

from memory - so it might be a bit off 

[Reply #50 on:]

Pro! That's the word I was looking or. Thanks.

[Reply #51 on:]

Haha. Until a couple days ago, I used to think that she was saying "when my man turned broke".

[Reply #52 on:]

I just like the fact that he hates all of his employees, like in TFP, he had to think about not sending them into the sun

[Reply #53 on:]

He's even evil and manipulative in Leela's dream in Anthology II, yelling at the professor "Now sign that will I gave you!" Then turning to Leela with a cheerful voice, "He's not here."
Love it.

hermes can really piss me of at times, but he can be funny on some occasions.

[Reply #55 on:]

I think that's gotta be my favorite Hermes moment.  That long pause to "mm-OK."

The writers are also always really good with his catch phrases - "Great giant anteater of Santa-Anita!"

I alos like his fat, ugly, promiscous mother and his zombie grandma, I smell a spin off

[Reply #58 on:]

I think Hermes is one of the best characters. He can limbo, he's Jamaican (I'm currently obsessed with Jamaica for some random reason),he's sometimes evil (TFP) and he's got some great exclamations! "What in the name of Bob Marley's ghost?!" - I love that one.  Also, we don't know much about him, which makes you want to know more.

I gotta say my favorite quote is in "Anthology of Interest I" when leela is killing him. 
"What's that you're hacking off? is it my torso!? AH! It is.  My precious torso!"
Also, any time he shouts"My manwhich!" I burst out laughing.

In the new film I enjoy at the beginning when Hermes is introducing the planet express crew then says

"Bureaucrat Grade 34, Hermes Conrad...is who I am.
