"I see CGI! !IGC ees I" "Poop! !pooP" Good episode - I always like it when the full regular cast get plenty to do. It seemed somehow really long, though (not that that's a bad thing at all). I was really surprised when they "killed" the crew after what felt like the length of a full episode, expecting some instant joke reset... and the story kept going.

Leovinus posted:Pretty good ep. Not outstanding, but good. They kind of forced Leela's motivations a bit and some of her jokes fell a bit flat because of that, but the rest of it was fine. Her lines in the first third of the show were pretty good, but they did seem to fall flat near the end. No big deal, but I noticed that too.

My biggest complaint was that it felt like the Leela as whale being was way too similar to Fry being Yeevo's human speech thing in Beast with a Billion Backs. It just seemed unoriginal for that. Fantastic episode though. I never said he had hair. That's just how YOU chose to imagine it!

The one thing I'll cite from Bender's Game is that this was her motivation there too. She was a kill-crazy adventure in that movie, and it was the same in this episode I felt.

So another episode with Bender's death in it?

The plane from Lost was one of the ships in the ship graveyard! Also, this episode was great. Honestly one of the best of the season for me - just really consistently funny and imaginative.

"Off in the distance! The whale is exhaling!" "Say it like a boater!" "Ugh... THAR SHE BLOWS!" So far this season has been immensely quotable. I love it.

Hermes limbo-ing out of the whale's mouth was one of the few Hermes gags to make me chuckle. Good episode!

Maybe I'm just blanking entirely, but when is the last time Farnsworth said "good news everyone!" I honestly can't even remember the last time, but I could just be overwhelmed with all the other awesome quotes.

This was my favorite episode of this season! So many great quotes! The only thing I didn't like was the line used in the thread title, though... like Martytoof pointed out, it was obviously rehashed from the 'land sea lions' joke, which is one of my favorite Fry lines.

Pretty good episode with a lot of hiarious quotes. I didn´t catch that (during the ´pooning) Bender hits the back wall twice before the second viewing.

Great episode, up there with the Police one. Ending was a little weak plot-wise, but it was funny to hear them mocking it repeatedly.Frink posted:Pretty good episode with a lot of hiarious quotes.

The whole elaborate mission control setting of the first Planet Express launch was probably one of the funniest things in this episode.

While I'll never turn down a good space odyssey reference, I'm thinking it's one of the list cosmonauts mentioned earlier. Besides, I think I can live with only 2 of them in this episode.
