If "The Simpsons" has a thread devoted to chewer favorites episodes/monets, its the right time to make one (unless it was done already, dammit) for "Futurama", with the final (hopefully not?) movie released a while ago.
Here's a couple of mine for starters:
"The route of all Evil" has one of those moments that cracks me up every single time I see it:
Cubert: All systems go.
Dwight: Blast-off!
[The pedal-powered craft takes off.]
Hermes: [shouting] See you at din-din!
Farnsworth: [shouting] I'm blowing you a kiss.
[He blows it and Cubert screams.]
Cubert: Take evasive action!
[He and Dwight pedal around the sky.]
Farnsworth: [shouting] It's closing in! You can't avoid it! It's a cheek-seeker. And ... gotcha!
Cubert: [screaming] Nooo!
I thinks its the "Cheekseeker line that does it for me".
Also, Zoidberg's lawyer in "A taste of freedom", Old Man Waterfall, is easily one of my favorites characters:
Old Man Waterfall: No, you don't [He takes it off.] 'Cause I lost my real hand plantin' the flag when we took back Halley's Comet! Yet it was worth it, so much do I love that flag. [The bench sobs.] I love it even more than I love my seven wives -- that's right, I'm a polygamist. [The court "boos".] Yet I would gladly eat a flag myself, had I not used my intestine as a rope to hoist a flag made of my own skin, if it would protect the freedoms of the proud people who salute that flag. [The court cheers.] Freedom such as polygamy. [The court "boos".] I rest my case.
Myrtle Fu: Also, in a rare double-whammy decision, the court finds polygamy constitutional.
[The court "boos".]
Old Man Waterfall: I can't wait to tell my husband!
[The court "boos" louder.]
"Do your worst, you sea devils. I'll make my stand with Old Freebie. You can crush me but you can't crush my spirit!" *is crushed* "Argh, my spirit"!
Old Man Waterfall: I request a Satanic funeral!
Finally, "Jurassic Bark" and "Godfellas" are easily my favorite episodes.
