Bender! I saw Bender!
I would like it if it wasn’t a ripped off Anthology of Intrest. Unless that is what they were going for, what with Bender and all. Even still, they have done the “future” things many times in the past, and very rarely did it not suck.
But hey! Better than I have seen them do in a long time. No guest stars to be seen, no unfunny musical numbers, and no already-been-done jokes. It really, really, really reminds me of a water-downed Futurama. Maybe it’s just the futuristic-type humor.
Roid Rage Milhouse!
Nelson knocks up Sherri & Terri - Ha Ha!
They had me at the “Astrology was the Tampa Bay Devil Rays of the science world” comment and the Bender cameo.
I’m not sure it was intentional, but in a way Homer’s underwater house called back to his plan to move the family under the sea to escape his problems in Homer Badman ten years ago.
That’s exactly what I thought. I wouldn’t have trouble thinking it was intentional as they’ve been known to turn a throwaway line like that into a plot point later on.
It reminded me of the house Fry and Bender looked at in the episode I, Roomate when they were searching for a new place.
Flounders!
Still not GREAT, and didn’t really have that Simpsons FEEL to it… but I felt it was less of a waste of my time than most of the new episodes have been lately.
Selma (or was it Patty?) with a tail made me laugh out loud. The lesbian and the furry.
As far as episodes-that-peek-into-the-future go, this was enjoyable. It’s not Lisa’s Wedding, but it’s a hell of a lot better than Bart to the Future (which Entertainment Weekly rightfully named the Worst Episode Ever™ a couple years back). I’m good for nothing except throwing out quotes, so here goes:
Bart: Yeah? Well, you love Moleman!
Lisa: No, you do! You’re gay for Moleman!
Bart: You’re gay for Moleman!
Moleman (sadly to himself): No one’s gay for Moleman.
“The Larry Davis iPod Experience”
Skinner: Welcome seniors and sexually precocious underclassmen. I’d like to say goodbye to those who are going off to college or to fight in Gulf War V: Operation Find Our President’s Head.
Jenda: Bart tells me you got into Yale. Sink, terminate.
Lisa: Yeah. Even though McDonald’s owns Yale now, it’s still a great school. And I could never afford to go there if I hadn’t won the Montgomery Burns Scholarship.
Jenda: Oh yeah, that’s the thing you had to do as punishment for stealing Christmas.
Lisa: Yeah…I miss Christmas.
Jenda: I don’t.
Jenda: Sex on prom night is as American as our 51st state, Saudi Israelia.
“Give Apes The Vote: You Won’t Regret It”
“Surprise Her with A Dogcat”
Bart: Mr. Smithers? I thought you were…you know.
Smithers: No, I’m straight…as long as I take these injections every ten minutes. (does so) I love boobies!
Bart: This sucks! I want to see “Vice President Cletus!”
Vice President Cletus (on phone): You want me to attend the funeral of the Sultan of Brunei? Well, I would consider it my honor. Hey, Brandine! Pack my evening britches! We’s goin’ to Brunei!
