Like a guest on Jerry Springer?
Uh... alledgedly.

I think Morbo's race invading would be a great idea for a movie - but you would have to put some sort of spin on it. Maybe the BrainSpawn and Morbo's race team up to destroy Earth/Fry once and for all? Of course, this would call for a BrainSpawn treason late in the movie to destroy Morbo's race (they hate all intelligent thought) but it would be a bit of an addition to the "aliens invade" plot, and would offer a great opportunity for the Nibblonians to get involved.

Anyway, I think after hearing about Morbo's race for four seasons, paired with the fact that his race is assembling a fleet near the end of the series, just perfectly sets up the invasion of his race as a movie idea. After all the build up, would we really want it squashed into a twenty-two minute episode?

I believe in 300 Big Boys, the Morbo-Wife scene, where morbo acts frustrated about his wife's meddling with the straightness of his bow-tie and Says "Its FINE Its Fine, I will Destroy You!" in a hushed party embarresed voice. This makes Morbo look like an emascalated male looking for a macho 'out'. where he acts hostile to cover up his frustration.

Just to point something out, I just watched "The Devils hands are Idle Playthings" and you see in several scenes that Morbo is at the opera, and has a date of his own species.

I think that's his wife from the episode "300 Big Boys".

Gah, the spoilers! the spoilers! ;_;

Life would be too cruel if there was only one Morbo... but, as has been pointed out, his mating female, Fawn, makes a few appearances, including at the opera. As an aside, isn't it freaky that those bulges on the top of Morbo's head are his lungs?

I've noticed a theme with the aggressive aliens (Morbo, Lrrr) being emasculated by their wives:
"It's fine, it's fine, I WILL DESTROY YOU!" 3BB
"Would you like some HUMAN with your salt?" PWP

Morbo's S/O's* name is Fawn?
His species' lungs are in the bulges on theirs heads?

What episode(s) does this information come from? (Bearing in mind I've not yet seen every Futurama ep yet...)

In the episode "Three Hundred Big Boys" (4ACV16) Morbo has his bow tie adjusted by his wife at the highbrow function to celebrate the victory over the Arachnid homeworld.

Yes, definitely.  I wonder whether Horrible Gelatinous Blob's wife is the same way.  Or maybe he's so frustrated because he's a single dad.

Actually, perhaps it's most likely that a living gelatinous blob would reproduce through non-sexual means, so perhaps there are no females.

I definitely would have liked to have seen more of Morbo's race.  Not sure I would have wanted them to invade, though, not only because that's been done to death with other alien races, but because I think it's probably funnier for Morbo (and perhaps others of his race) to be all talk.

[Reply #63 on:]

Yeah, I find it funny how Morbo constantly talks about invading Earth, and how he will destroy everyone. But has he ever actually done anything even remotely intimidating?

No but I bet he is a wife beater, because he was going to destroy her...

[Reply #66 on:]

I haven't read all the posts so if this has been mentioned forgive me, but we see Morbo's wife in Three Hundred Big Boys remember? So not only does he mention giving cookies to "Fawn and the kids", but we do see another of Morbo's race.
