I'm not a very big Bender fan. He's been a major character for a while, and I think a more Zoidbergesque amount of screen time would be perfect for him. He wears on me, because he can only be callous and larcenous so many times in an episode before he's boring.

I picked the end of Bendless Love--if that's okay with everyone* Amy: "No, Bender, the other way!" Bender: "I like him better this way!" Professor: "I'm sad now..." Leela: "Oh, it's fine." *even if it's not

That is a very hard one. I like all Bender endings.
I like the one where he was singing killing all the humans and when he put on the magnet and start singing from Bendin in the wind

Originally posted by Robotany 500: Teral: what's the meaning of "antiquing"? I watched the english episode, but I thought he said "I'm thinking"... The word that makes Bender blo9w up is Antiquing. From what I recall it means "shopping for antique's" or "making things look like antiques". Read more here.

You shouldn't say that he is boring now because I don't think that at all. I think he is and always has been interesting. Did you just say I like Bender less than other characters.... because I like other characters more than Bender? Astute observation. Bender is a shallow character. I wouldn't get rid of Bender, but I think when 1/2 the episodes in a season are centered around him, it's overkill. Bender is too uncomplicated to be a good choice for the series's main character, I think. Which is what he is, basically.

Wow, I never heard that word before.
I voted showing off his human heart.
That one also made me think of the time he had the Prime Minister of Sweden's arm, which he used in Space Pilot 3000, just for the careerchip.

Primeminister of Norway, and it was in "The Cryonic Woman".

Originally posted by haleys_comet: Uncomplicated? So if a character you like less is not up to your standards in perfection he/she isn't good as a main character if is one? I have the absolute opposite opinion than you. I'm sorry, I do not understand what you are trying to say. Please restate or heavily edit. And yes... I don't think a one-trick pony like Bender should be the main character, because it gets repetitive. For example, through most of A Pharoah to Remember, I wanted to smack Bender in the head with a metal Louisville Slugger. Bender being selfish and rude gets old when it's the main point of the series. And Bender also has no character development. Fry and Leela mature and change and learn. Kif and Amy have a relationship, minor characters though they may be. With Bender, there is no change from episode to episode. He's funny, but I can't stand the number of episodes that focus entirely on him.

im not that really much for Bender, i think that he's gotten a bit too much time for his own, what with pharao and godfellas an all. It's clear however that he must certainly be one of the writers favourite since he's a robot and can do nearly anything without anyone having to worry about censorship. just a thought. nr 6 btw
