Revision as of 20:14, 6 September 2011
Imagine The Simpsons with less pop culture references, more lulz, and more science fiction wankery, more space, more danger, and more slutty women and dark humour and you've got yourself Futurama. Futurama is an animated sitcom series set in the year 3000, first discovered by the band Busted. It was remembered as a show so bad, that Fox would purposely let its football games run longer than usual to ensure no one would have to sit through more of Matt Groening's eye-rape. Many claim the show's conception was a writing vampire, draining the lulz out of The Simpsons as Groening forced the competent writers to write one-liners for an alcoholic robot.
The episodes sucked, the writing was garbage and in 2003, Fox canned the show. After much butthurt, Futurama debuted four straight-to-DVD movies sometime last Thursday. Then, in 2010, Comedy Central aired the first of 26 new half-hour episodes which are really, really good.
In spite of this, the show has spawned four internet memes: I see what you did there, Child Abduction, Second, Hypnotoad.
The Show
On New Years Eve, 1999, Fry, a ginger Downs Syndrome patient turned-delivery-boy, falls into a cryogenic chamber and freezes himself for a thousand years. This spawned a raging fanboy base from the very beginning, as the targeted demographic are losers and fags. He gets a job at the Planet Express Delivery Company with his nephew, Professor Farnsworth. Every episode begins with the Professor walking into a room and saying "[Blank] news, everyone!" before sending them on an an incredibly dangerous and near-fatal mission. The writers run with the premise that the future is different than the present, where even making a phone call is painfully ironic.
Characters
- Phillip J. Fry: In case you have dementia and forget multiple times an episode, Fry is from the 20th century. He is voiced by Billy West, who also did every other voice on the show. His squinty eyes ARE the meme I see what you did there. He goes back in time and fucks his own grandmother when she was young, so he's his own grandfather.
- Bender B. Rodriguez: A lazy, alcoholic, chain smoking, kleptomaniac "bending" robot. It was no surprise when it was revealed in the third season (episode one) that he is actually Mexican. His dream is to one day kill all humans,except Fry, as he reveals in an overly BAWWWWW-inducing episode. Although he never gets around to it. Fucking Mexicans.
- Turanga Leela: The smart, independent woman character necessary to move the plot forward. Leela is a karate master, alien-cyclops-mutant-human with a good body, however, she cannot find another man for the life of her. Fry wants to fuck her brains out, but he's constantly Cockblocked by all manner of things, including Zapp Brannigan; some fat guy she had a brief encounter with in the bedroom and is reminded constantly of it. She is voiced by Peggy Bundy from Married With Children.
- Prof. Hubert Farnsworth: At least 160 years old and owns Planet Express, Farnsworth does little else but sleep, invent pointless gadgets and yell at his employees. Notable inventions include the Smell-O-Scope and the 'What-If' machine. His character concept is basically the assfuckery between that scientist nerd and Grandpa Abe from the Simpsons. Fry is Farnsworth's distant newphew or some shit, you'll get a headache thinking about it.
- Amy Wong: A rich AZN slut from Mars who's dating the alien, Kif Kroker. But she broke up with him had sex with Fry for an episode. Largely another channel for Matt Groening's tits-and-ass fantasies, Amy exists as the character of whom Leela is constantly jealous, because she gets some and Leela doesn't. Frequently Rule 34'd.
- Dr. John A. Zoidberg: Poor Jewish lobster doctor that has only five jokes on the entire show; having no money, eating anything he can find, being disliked, being a bad doctor and doing Jewish stuff. He gets incredibly horny in one episode and we find out it was his mating season. If he fucks someone, he dies. If he doesn't, he lives; so he's a virgin too.
- Hermes Conrad: The Jamaican created to vent cannabis jokes, Hermes is a bureaucrat needed to round out the collection of racial stereotypes. Likes to limbo and file shit. Later episodes, constantly seen with a green thing on his head, the other characters seem to be oblivious to it.
- Zap Brannigan: A source of lulz, Zapp is a ridiculous character used for taking pot-shots at William Shatner. He enjoys having his armpits shaved in the bath by his assistant Kif Kroker and wears a uniform so revealing it's a wonder Kiff hasn't been mentally scarred. He's also a fat tub of lard. It was intended for Phil Hartman to voice him, before he was shot by his slut of a wife.
- Kif Kroker: Zapp's wimpy lapboy, who's renouned for his annoyed sighs, and being Amy's boyfriend. Despite dating Amy, Leela impregnates Kif in the fourth season by touching his hand. The fucking slut!
- Mom: Generic corporate overlord in the guise of a sweet old lady. Mom has had copious amounts of sloppy, old-people sex with Professor Farnsworth in the past, she's hated him ever since because he didn't call. One of her three kids is Farnsworth's, and he's the retarded one.
- Nibbler: Leela's pet who is secretly an ancient alien spy sent to protect Earth and Fry so he can kill giant brains. He shits out starship fuel in the form of "dark matter", the heaviest substance in the universe. Yes, really. It's a wonder he's still alive.
- Hypnotoad: Hypnotoad is the worst character in the history of all cartALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD!
- Scruffy: I'm Scruffy, the janitor. I ain't seen you before neither.
The straight-to-DVD movies (aka Season 5)
- Bender's Big Score: Professor Farnsworth finds out that the retarded Fox executives have been fired and beaten to death for cancelling Futurama, Hermes gets decapitated, everyone gets scammed and Bender and Fry create a whole shitload of TIME PARADOXES!!!!!00110001001001111010000101101110011!. Because every paradox creates a duplicate of the character, there are over 9000 Bender and Fry copies by the end. Thinking about how it's all possible will cause migraines, so don't. Reality implodes under the weight of retardation and the universe turns into goatse.
- The Beast With A Billion Backs: After Bender tore the universe a new asshole in Bender's Big Score, a giant shemale Flying Spaghetti Monster called Yivo comes out of it and tentacle rapes everyone by making them deepthroat him/her/schler in one giant gangbang. Fry and Zoidberg become the leaders of Scientology, Zapp fucks Amy after KIF DIES! and Bender becomes a pirate, leading
himself... or his other selves... the other Benders...a shitload of Benders against Yivo and managing to hurt him with, wait for it... PAPER. Yes, fucking paper.
- Bender's Game: Leela has a fit of roid-rage and smashes the shit out of the Planet Express ship, so Professor Farnsworth makes her wear a shock collar and she starts enjoying it. Meanwhile Bender goes batshit insane and thinks he's a knight in a mystical faerie world. He gets sent to the nuthouse while Professor and Mom fight over some crystals. Some weird shit happens and they get sucked into Bender's imagination. From here on in it's just the Futurama characters doing some LARP and Fry and Leela are the only two that remember who they are. Culminates in a LOTR escapade but somehow everything reverts. Also one of Mom's retarded sons (the one with the pink hair) is Farnsworth's son.
- Into The Wild Green Yonder: It doesn't get stupider than this: Amy's dad comes up with a brilliant plan: Blow up teh universe to make way for a giant mini-golf course. Fry gets a piece of jewelery lodged in his brain which allows him to read minds, but he goes insane, dons a tinfoil hat and joins "The Legion of Mad Fellows". Bender has an affair with a slutty fembot called Fanny, Leela and Amy become feminists and they all have a big hippy party before saving a bunch of animals. The movie ends with Fry and Leela finally getting together inside the Planet Express ship and expressing their feelings for each other as Brannigan's ship, the Nimbus, prepares to anally rape them. Suddenly the whole cast gets sucked into a wormhole which Professor Farnsworth says could take them billions of lightyears away and they might never return.
I WONDER WHERE THE WORMHOLE WILL LEAVE THEM?!?!
