FRY FRY FRY FRY FRY.

Also that other guy... What's his name... FRY!

[Reply #2 on:]

I prefer Fry with the PH!

The smart, hot, confident, kick-ass purple-haired alien mutant, of course!

Sorry -- didn't want to be too over-the-top and come across as a hopeless shipper   Is:

"The fiery hot, incendiary, smolderingly sexy, smart, confident, kick-ass purple-haired alien mutant, of course"

better? 

[Reply #8 on:]

That senile, amoral crackpot.

Bender

[Reply #10 on:]

Should Tinny Tim become a Supervillain on a quest to conquer the world, he'd be my favorite character

Until then: I couldn't pick a single character, but rather the trio with their characters and potential interactions. That group just works perfectly...

[Reply #11 on:]

Tinny Tim is definitely hiding something. Possibly something malicious. I could see it happening.

[Reply #12 on:]

I don't know who it is, but now I will leave for no raisin.

[Reply #13 on:]

That senile, amoral crackpot.

It's just that he hasn't been that amoral lately. I love him whenever he is at his worst behavior ("is this another one of those experiments that crosses the line mankind is not supposed to cross?" "why didn't i break his legs?" "that him in the money shower" "killing them will be so much easier than exterminating those ponies").

The best character still is The Robot Devil.

I reckon he has.

[Reply #15 on:]

I like the Fry.

[Reply #16 on:]

I still hope Zapp wins Fall Madness, though I wouldn't be surprised if Bender or Farnsworth took the title.

[Reply #17 on:]

I think I changed my mind, now it's Roberto...

[Reply #18 on:]

Petunia deserved to go as far as Hattie did.  She's one of the funniest recurring characters. 

[Reply #19 on:]

Roberto? But he's such a one-trick pony.

I prefer Hattie over Petunia, but both are amusing.

Yes, definitely so.

Roberto? But he's such a one-stab pony.

Fixed for you!

[Reply #21 on:]

Bender is my favorite obviously. Fry is also awesome and Zapp is second favorite.

[Reply #22 on:]

For me it's a tie between Fry and Bender. I also really like Zoidberg too.

[Reply #23 on:]

Since I never really made much of a declaration in this particular thread, I'll state here that obviously good old dull-as-dishwater Leela is TEH GREETEST. However, Zapp is also pretty high up there. Zoidberg has some really, really excellent one-liners (but he can't carry an episode, sorry) as does Farnsworth (who can actually carry a decent episode).

[Reply #24 on:]

Fry is my favourite character, with Leela close behind.

[Reply #25 on:]

The man with no name.

Zapp Brannigan.

[Reply #26 on:]

The man with no name.

Zapp Brannigan.

 


Yeah... no. But next to Bender he is one of the funniest characters to quote.

However the GREETEST character is Fry.  General consensus says so.

That's the most correct thing I ever saw!

[Reply #28 on:]

Fry, then Bender....Farnsworth too...Zoidberg grosses me out

[Reply #29 on:]

Zoidberg cracks me up. "Finally I look as pretty as I feel!"

[Reply #30 on:]

The On Topic PEELie polls are now open. Voting may commence. Have fun!

Don't forget to vote for Fry, Bender, and Leela's greatest fans!

[Reply #31 on:]

Zoidberg: The Lovable Tramp
Fry: The Relatible Idiot
Leela: The Lonely Cyclops
PF: The Old, very very very very old guy
Bender: "The Lovable Rascal"

Take your pik, i keep switching (mines fry or bender)

[Reply #32 on:]

FRY!!!!

[Reply #33 on:]

I have to say, a lovable main character is usually the heart of a show. Fry is relatable because he's from our time. (There's a lesson that Allen Gregory could use). But Bender is a secondary main character (that's where you put the  messed up, and often hilarious character). I'll have to say Bender though, because of all his great moments. Fry is probably second. How I Met Your Mother Secondary Main Character: Barney (Bachelor who is quite funny), My Name Is Earl: Joy, 30 Rock: Tracy, Arrested Development: Gob or Tobias (If you've never seen this show, watch it. It is my second favorite show to Futurama, it's also very funny). The list goes on, but no one beats Bender in this position. LONG LIVE FUTURAMA   

[Reply #34 on:]

Not only is Fry from our time, but all of us can relate to a loser. No matter how successful you might be, at one point you've felt like a dismal failure. Fry kind of embodies that.

[Reply #36 on:]

As opposed to a two-eyed cyclops. Because that would just be confusing.

[Reply #37 on:]

An oxymoron, I believe. Like a Jew named Christian.

[Reply #38 on:]

An oxymoron, I believe. Like a Jew named Christian.

An oxymoron is two opposing words joined together to create an apparent paradox. Like a virgin whore. One can hardly be a whore if one is still a virgin, and one can hardly be virginal if one is a whore. A whore is somebody who recieves payment for sexual services. A virgin is innocent regarding sex. Therefore the two descriptors are in opposition, and the term "virgin whore" is illogical.

A Jew named Christian would not be an oxymoron. It provides an apparent contradiction, but is neither an oxymoron nor completely illogical. Messianic Jews are Jewish, but also Christians, for example.

The video wasn't terrible though.

[Reply #39 on:]

My point was really just that the phrase "one eyed cyclops" is redundant.
