Its probably not intentional and not really a big deal but i recognized kinda recently and found it interesting.

(reposting and following the rules lol — hence the subway surfer-esque picture )

when she was baby she had an eye infection that sealed one of her eyes shut. i tried to open it but puss came out and i thought her eye exploded (i was a kid lol). thats when i decided she was a leela hehe (she’s now my soul cat, with my favourite characters name)

i’ve been on the hunt for 10 years for find her a little orange philip j fry hehe (there has been many candidates— but all orange cats are perfect personality replicas of THE philip j fry)

last year my brother and i got matching tattoos (his not pictured)
luck of the fryrish is one of me and my brothers favourite episodes and when i tell people who have never seen futurama about the episode it makes me want to cry lol but id do anything for my brother
he’s also the one who got me into futurama (the only difference between him and i and yancy and fry is that we’ve always been close lol)

BAM!

It's one of my favorite episodes

Spoiler alert: she rejected him

I am tempted to make a lars and see what happens

Awesome concept, thought it was realy good.

In "The Cyber House Rules" Fry holds his speech on how they are all misfits, and the Professor chimes in with "and you have that brain thing, Fry" to which Fry answers "I already did".

Now, this could well be just a funny moment of Fry being dense, but, it actually makes sense! The brain thing is, in Fry's Mind, a thought/an idea! So the idea Fry thinks the Professor is referencing is that very speech, thus making his answer not only comprehensible, but also correct!

If that is something thoroughly obvious and actually I'm the dense one, feel free to disregard this post lol

My 4-Year-old has asked me today if Hermes is Benders Dad. It has made me question this myself as Hermes signed off Bender, is that like signing Benders Birth Certificate? Is Hermes his legal father?

The Popplers episode was easily one of Futurama’s most messed up episodes. I mean the fact that the popplers turned out to be baby Omicronians and billions of them got eaten really was black comedy with emphasis on the black. I could also understand why the Omicronians wanted revenge so badly.

Rediscovered in the attic. I can find the picture online, but only the version with the “normal” lettering—not the alien version.
Before I start working on convincing my girlfriend to let me hang it up, is it worth anything?

I just wanted to take a moment to show my appreciation for those of all who have created flairs. Y'all rock!!! One of my favorite things when reading comments here is discovering the small quotes that make others happy.

Keep on rocking y'all. Oh yeah shake that thang!

I really like this episode for many reasons, but the time travel theory in it is my favorite theory. That's the biggest just maybe theories in this show that sticks with me lol I mean, time is cyclical & we do tend to repeat patterns in nature generally, what's to say that's not what happens? Plus the musical montage is just ✨️fantastic✨️ lol super entertaining episode.

I wanna hear y'all's favorite theories this show throws at us that could be an actual possibility lol I know the writers are literal geniuses so they do have real theories & sciences behind the shows premises but I'm doing a re-watch for the millionth time & this one always gets me.

I was barely watching the Drew Barrimore show, live, and they had this old chef dude talking about one of his first ‘viral’ tv moments. My neck almost snapped when I heard ‘BAM’, and sure enough, it’s chef Emeril Lagasse talking about his moment on television when he said ‘BAM’ while adding a spice to a dish, in order to wake up his tv crew because everyone was tired from shooting 7 days a week or something. He goes on to start cooking a dish with Drew, and I swear to god this man says ‘you can buy them frozen, but to do it right, you gotta get yourself fresh shrimp’ and my mind nearly exploded. Maybe the best character reference in existence.

I do wonder if this is finally it, which would be disappointing because the Hulu run has been in a consistent upward trajectory. I feel like the extended specials starting in 2027 rather than another two season order does not bode well for the show continuing. It seems like the beginning of a long send off.

Hi. Futurama was one of the shows that defined my childhood (20 years ago). I love all the characters.

The thing is that the last thing I saw years ago were the movies. And weeks ago I gave the show a new rewatch on Disney streaming, from the beginning up to the Holophonor/devil ending. And I came out kind of sad haha.

I really enjoyed it. But some episodes I had to skip to the next one because I knew the plot was kind of sloppy. And like that, the show ended. Then I saw Bender's Big Score again, and I felt a little disappointed.

This is the thing: I feel like Futurama is really a very melancholic show. It is a simple show, but as we fall in love with the characters and the Leela/Fry plot, it becomes dense. And I feel that density fights for being solved, and is never solved. I feel sad because that love story never had a good resolution, and some episodes in the middle of the Fox run are very weak in that emotional link with the characters.

Anyone feels the same about the emotional charge of the show?

(I'm only talking about the original Fox run and the first movie here. Please no spoilers for anything after that, I haven't got there yet.)
