Personal information about Hermes may be few and far between, but we have
been let in on a few things in the course of the show. We know he’s a Jamaican former Olympic limbo contender, a born bureaucrat, husband to LaBarbara and father... Read more
Bender shows us he actually has a heart in that chest cavity as he falls in love, or maybe not. Watch and see. Leela and Fry begin their looong on and off flirtation with romance in this episode as well.
Read moreWe first see Decapod 10 when Zoidberg and the crew return to his home world
so he can participate in the mating frenzy.
At least on the landscape! It makes a SadGeezer’s day to think TV addiction has a bright future*grin*.
Read moreSo that’s it folks. It was quick episode with very little sci fi or plot. But FOX got just what they wanted and in the Future they were careful what they wished for with Futurama. Another random FYI, is that Bender’s room number... Read more
Philbrick is the King of Muldavia 5 and long lost twin brother to Chode. He was adopted by Muldavian royalty at birth and was only recently reunited with his brother.
Read moreSince science fiction worlds are never diverse and only single mindedly represent one view point, then magnify it a thousand fold, this world can only have one trait: and that is to be the trigger happy, gun slingin’ planet.
Read moreThe Free Enterprise was the original spaceship of our intrepid crew. It’s a beat up junker of a space craft that is little more then a cargo hold with a few interspersed crew quarters.
Read moreCaptain. Hero. Lover. Gifted. Handsome. Extraordinary Lover. That’s the way Zapp Brannigan would describe himself to most people. Those people wouldn’t be so charitable. In fact, those people would describe the captain of the Nimbus as... Read more
The Confederation Cruiser is the more common fleet ship in the Confederate forces. It’s swift, fast, nimble and like other confederation ships, armed to the teeth.
Read moreThe Peaceniks are the counter-culture rebels of the planet Harmonia 7. The rag tag group of teenagers and liberal arts majors were are led by Aidan Wesson, son of planetary Governor Smith Wesson.
Read moreThe Dark Clown battle cruiser is a formidable enemy. But only if you’re a transport ship with very little in the way of defences or weapons, otherwise this clown ship is an impotent foe.
Read moreSmith N Weeson was the governor of Harmonia 7. He’s the man who led the once peaceful world through an infinite downward spiral of paranoia, violence and suffering.
Read moreThe Jupiter 42 is the fastest spaceship in the galaxy and the vessel of our favourite dysfunctional crew (Chode et al in case that needed clarification).
Read moreThe latest in a long line of time travelling ships, Temporal Adventures Timeplane is capable of travelling not only forward and backward through time, but all the way to the beginning.
Read moreOne of the strong points to this episode was that it returned to some of its more computer short roots. Most obviously by changing the opening credits a tad. Much like the computer short, the final “t” in Rift fell over in the... Read more
This episode marks the first appearance of Mom, a kick-ass character that recurs throughout the series. She tells it like it is, in some very colorful language. I can’t decide if I like her or Zap Brannigan more.
Read moreTime to introduce Fry, a twenty something pizza delivery boy with nothing to live for. He’s just been dumped by his live-in-girlfriend and is stuck delivering pizza’s on New Years Eve 1999. And I thought New Years 99 sucked for... Read more
The fact that Bender wants to cook tickles me just a tad. Every other thing that humans do offends the hell out of him, I would think cooking and eating would be right up there. This episode sets the stage for a later episode in the series... Read more
Amy spends her most of her time getting involved in different adventures of the crew. She basically serves as some comic relief when Bender just won’t do. The rest of her time is spent bragging about her cuteness or slipping on something and... Read more
It’s the professor’s turn to shine in this one. I know they need to give you some insight into the peripheral characters, but I like the ones later about Zoidberg and Hermes better.
Read moreIt’s back to one of the central planets for today’s episode. No more of this dusty badlands wild west desert stuff, but instead a refined city atmosphere. And evidently I’m not the only one who’s excited, most of the... Read more
