enough Simpsons already...for this week anyway

i like the Robot Planet one from the first series:

Robot Guard #2: Which of the following would you most prefer? A: A puppy? B: A pretty flower from your sweetie or C: A large properly formatted data file?

Robot Guard #1: Choose!

[Fry and Leela whisper to each other about the answer.]

Fry: Is the puppy mechanical in any way?

Robot Guard #2: No. It is the bad kind of puppy.

Leela: Then we'll go with that data file.

Robot Guard #2: Correct.

Robot Guard #1: The flower would also have been acceptable.

i still don't really like futurama. but the one where nixon's head gets re-elected was great, and i liked the slurm factory one cos of the oompa-loompa type song and then the prof saying "tell them i hate them"

zemko (bob), Thursday, 16 January 2003 12:32 (twenty-one years ago) link

i'd rather watch a new Futurama than a new Simpsons easily...are they still making episodes? i heard FOx had cancelled it along with Family Guy

It would have been funny if this had languished in Unanswered Questions.

meanwhile, The Simpsons is apparently secure for another three seasons at least (a few of the actors who provide key voices had contractual qualms) - its just not fair i tells ya

"I find that the most erotic part of the woman is the boobies."

80s guy: "You remeber that song Saftey Dance?"
Fry: "Oh yeah!
Both: "DOO DOO DEE DEE DEE DOO DOO DEE DEE DEE"
Fry: "You know, it wasn't as safe as they said it was."

Stevem is OTM. When anyone pulls the "even if they suck, the simpsons are better than anything else on TV" line, Futurama is my standard refutation. Also, futurama is better sci-fi than most "serious" sci-fi on TV.

Lynskey (Lynskey), Thursday, 16 January 2003 12:45 (twenty-one years ago) link

what annoyed me was all the critics saying 'its no Simpsons, but...' when by the time Fry and co. got going The Simpsons was blatantly flagging and running out of ideas (and jokes) - Futurama's had a better script and better gags from the outset really, tho i concede that Futurama probably doesnt have the same mileage as The Simpsons did.

stevem (blueski), Thursday, 16 January 2003 12:56 (twenty-one years ago) link

one of the things the simpsons had which futurama lacks is a HUGE ensemble cast, so f always feels a bit underpopulated, somehow

of course the bbc mainly only shows series one of the simpsons so i can't compare properly

mark s (mark s), Thursday, 16 January 2003 13:26 (twenty-one years ago) link

underpopoulated = saying "i like this, but i'd like it more if there was more of it"

Search: anything with Zapp Brannigan and Kif.

"Have the boy bring me my dress shorts."
"The boy?"
"You, Kif. You bring me my dress shorts."
"Sigh."

"In the game of chess, it is vital never to let your opponent see your pieces"

Sadly Zapp mhas made it impossible for me to watch Planet Of The Apes without collapsing.

Does it have more visual jokes than the Simpsons? I'm thinking of stuff with Bender - him shitting a brick, or taking three beers out of his chest to celebrate and drinking them all.

The Incompetent Turquoise Chicken Lawyer is better than anything that's been on the Simpsons in a least three years. 'Now, little girl, I want you to realise that there is absoluteleh nothin' for you to be afraid of. I- (shrieks loudly) I'm sorry, I thought you was corn.' 'Your honour, I move that I be disbarred for introducin' this evi-dence against mah own client.'

Also, wasn't there some kind of Charm Robot that spouted the line 'Is heaven missing an angel? Because you have nice cans.'

I don't understand Mark's "underpopulated" comment: surely the Simpsons got as well-populated as it did by picking up character after character for season after season?

nabisco (nabisco), Thursday, 16 January 2003 17:44 (twenty-one years ago) link

(Granted, the fact that Futurama "travels" and they live in a big city removes the ease of just returning every character you introduce, but, e.g., I just watched the collapsing-planet episode where they brought in Kif, Brannigan, and Nibbler, one of whom is now super-involved and the others of whom can be used in pretty much the same manner as a Krusty or a Hibbert.)

nabisco (nabisco), Thursday, 16 January 2003 17:47 (twenty-one years ago) link

Also: every line uttered by Morbo, the newsreader.

Morbo: "Morbo can't understand his TelePrompter. He forgot how you say that letter that looks like a man with a hat."
Linda: "It's a 'T'. It goes 'tuh'."
Morbo: "Hello little man. I WILL DESTROY YOU!"

Or...

Nixon: "Hello, Morbo. How's the family?
Morbo: "Belligerent and numerous."
Nixon: "Good man! Nixon's pro-war and pro-family."

At its best, Futurama more than stacks up against Simpsons, but its grebtest problem is remarkable inconsistency. First half of season 1 = classic, middle half of season 2 = classic, and everything else was hit or miss. In fact, Futurama as a whole seems to have gone through the ups and downs of 13+ years of Simpsons, in only 3 years, namely an over-reliance on Bender which quickly led to an exponential increase in his jerkassocity.

Bender: Magnets screw up my inhibition unit.
Fry: So you flip out and start acting like some crazy folk singer?
Bender: Yes. [sadly] I guess a robot would have to be crazy to wanna be a folk singer ...

Robot horror flick: "Behold my system of mighty organs!"

Fry: "I need the apartment tonight. [hands him money] Go see a saucy puppet show."
Bender: "Can do!"

Amy: "So what do you think of that guy by the bar?"
Leela: "I don't know. Maybe."
Bender: "Forget it! He's gay."
Leela: "What? How can you tell?"
Bender: "I just know these things. I've got what they call 'gaydar'."
Leela: "There's no such thing."
Bender: "No? ....Ok, I've got a lock on him. Yep, he's gay!"
Amy: "Are you sure?"
Bender: "Definitely! Unless I'm getting interference from a gay weather balloon."

Fry: "Wait a second. You are a bender, right? We can get out of here if you just bend the bars!"
Bender: "Dream on skin tube! I'm only programmed to bend for constructive purposes. What do I look like? A debender?"
Fry: "Who cares what you're programmed for? If someone programmed you to jump off a bridge, would you do it?"
Bender: "I'll have to check my program. Yep!"

*sigh* I miss it already.

Zapp: Men, you're lucky men. Soon you'll all be fighting for your planet. Many of you will be dying for your planet. A few of you will be forced through a fine mesh screen for your planet. They will be the luckiest of all.

Bender: Great, we're gonna die.

Fry: And this ham gum is all bones.

Trayce, Tuesday, 3 July 2007 04:46 (sixteen years ago) link

In fact that whole episode has some great lines:

Zapp: It's the one word the robot uses more than any other. We got it from this convenient database of his 10 most frequently-used words. [He presses a button on the database and a list comes up.] Number 10, chump; number nine, chumpette; number eight, yours; number seven, up; number six, pimpmobile; number five, bite; number four, my ... [Leela gasps.] ... number three, shiny; number two, daffodil. And Bender's number one most frequently-uttered word, the word which, if uttered, will blow up this entire planet: Ass.

[Fry gasps.]

Fry: We don't have long!

John Jackson: "Unthinkable."
Jack Johnson: "I wouldn't think of it."
Morbo: "What about you Mr. Nixon? I remind you. You are under of a truth-o-scope."
Nixon: "Question is vague. You don't say what kind of candy and whether anyone is watching. In anyway I certainly wouldn't harm the child."

Computers may be twice as fast as they were in 1973 but your average voter is as drunk and stupid as ever. The only one who's changed is me. I've become bitter, and let's face it, crazy over the years. And once I'm swept into office, I'll sell our children's organs to zoos for meat. And I'll go into people's houses at night and wreck up the place! Muhuhahahaha!

Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 5 July 2007 15:59 (sixteen years ago) link

Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 5 July 2007 15:59 (sixteen years ago) link

Atlanta was a city, landlocked,
Hundreds of miles from the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean,
Yet so desperate the city's desire for tourism,
That they moved offshore, becoming an island,
And an even bigger Delta hub,

[On the screen, helicopters lift the city and land it in the ocean. The scene changes to years later. The island is packed with buildings.]
Until the city over-developed and it started to sink,
Knowing their fate, the quality people ran away,
Ted Turner, Hank Aaron, Jeff Foxworthy, the guy who invented Coca-Cola,
The magician and the other so-called Gods of our legends,
Though Gods they were,
And also Jane Fonda was there.

[A boat with the people on pulls away and the city sinks.]
The others chose to remain behind,
On their porches with their rifles, and one day evolve into mermaids,
And sing and dance and ring in the new.
