The Other Rock Guy was a magic rock guy, not a teleporter. They're completely different things.

I thought the recycling part was funny and clever.

Though again, like every episode it had its moments.

As your vice president, I order you to steal that tree.

I really hope Cheney stays vice president. That would make it all worthwhile

You really liked the holiday special songs more than the ones in Bender's Big Score? I can't even hum a few bars of any of the holiday songs. They were completely unmemorable.

Self-aware jokes like Fry's "Time to lower my guard even for a minute" annoy me way more than something like "Obamacare!! :shakefist:" I see the comedic value in the Obamacare line, although I think there are more clever ways to do it but what is supposed to be funny about Fry's line? That we know it is not safe to lower his guard even for a minute? WELL I WAS NOT LAUGHING

He still sounds sorta old. Sorta real old.

Why in "I Second That Emotion" is Amy concerned she's not as smart as Leela? She's a Ph.D. student in some sort of fancy physics discipline to Leela being some sort of interstellar truck driver. After seeing Amy become Dr. Wong this season, that line back in season two seems out of place.

Wasn't it actually Fry who was worried that he wasn't as smart as Leela but at the same time being glad that he's prettier than her? Amy was just covering for him?

I interpreted that as them both thinking more or less the same thing

But I like your version! Then she gets to keep being really smart but clumsy and slutty

Wasn't he already an Executive Delivery Boy?

Yeah but Morgan Proctor fired him after that and he was rehired at severely reduced pay and presumably no longer an executive.

Not a great episode. But a Dora the Destroyer avatar or wallpaper would be cool.

And another Hermes pot joke. I didn't notice it until this thread (ruined it for me) that they're really pushing that harder than ever before.

On a second viewing, I noticed a Joy Luck Club joke from a character voiced by Lauren Tom.

That's referential and funny.

I think we're all quoted out.

Could we talk about something else?

How about that Futurama?

I live in Hong Kong (a city that bears some resemblance to a crowded penguin habitat), and while I was browsing my local media outlet, I found all the Futurama movies will official Cantonese subtitles. I had previously only been able to find fansubs online made for a mainland Chinese audience.

Since they were region 3, and because the other ones aren't as good, I only bought Bender's Big Score to take it home and test it on my PS3. It works! There are some big differences with the fansubs, including that they've named Bender 傻幾 (Foolish Machine) and Zoidberg 龍蝦醫生 (Doctor Lobster). Amy's official Chinese name is 黃雅美, Huang Yamei in Mandarin and Wong Ngamei in Cantonese.

Too bad they haven't released any of the series in Chinese though. Still have to use low-quality streaming fansubs to share those with my English-impaired friends.

We learned many things from the mighty Egyptians, such as pyramid building, space travel, and how to prepare our dead so as to scare Abbott and Costello

I think I saw this episode five times before I noticed that it was the Egyptians who taught the aliens how to do things. Then I laughed a lot.
