    Theory time: Remember the tooth rings that convinced PlanEx that he was 5? My theory is that those grow every 1000 years, not every year. So Nibbler is 5000+ years old.

    There were 3 rings. And they were linking to his age when the veterinarian assumed "if he's anything like a tree". And he had suffered a heavy beating from a tiger.

    There were 5. Your other points are valid, though. That's why it's a theory. Like gravity, or the shape of the earth.

    Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky, seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone, nine for Mortal Men doomed to die, one for the Dark Lord on his dark throne in the Land of Mordor where the shadows lie.

    I don't know what made me think that they were only going to play 2 episodes and then the real season would start later in the year. I totally missed everything.

    I like to think Fry was right even if it's because he wasn't able to count to five.

    Another good episode in what has proven to be a somewhat uneven season, though mostly more good than bad.

    Fry's seeming spiral into pure retard-level stupidity continues unabated, however . . . .

    I'm having one of those things! A headache with pictures!
    An idea?
    (vigorous nodding)

    Fry would have to try to chew off his own arms or manage to screw up pushing a button to be any dumber than he has been this season.

    Well played sir.

    You know, I try not to contribute like this because this thread repeatedly just degenerates into a bunch of Futurama quotes *anyway*, but I was *really* hoping someone was going to respond to this with: "But, both of those things *did* happen." Only so DK could respond, "I know, I was deliberately describing a similar situation."

    Alternatively, the initial response could've been "I could pound your head 'til you think that's what happened." But that's my internal response to a lot of people asking for things... it's so versatile!

    Wired's got a list of favorite Futurama moments from a bunch of the cast and crew. The article's got mild spoilers on Devo in tonight's episode, but it's great overall. And once again, Maurice LaMarche proves why he's awesome:
    Um, I dunno. Fry's dead dog episode, and Fry's dead nephew episode. You know. The ones everyone likes.

    Here's a quick glimpse at the recording session for tonight's episode. It's scary how quickly Billy West switches between his characters.

    Also, it looks like Futurama's going to acknowledge the 100th episode in its usual subtle way.

    You realize that doesn't change the fact that it was his nephew right?

    He's his own grandfather.
    Which was what I was thinking was going to happen when he first jumped in.

    Alternate option: he wasn't in long enough - in the Leela's parents episode they mention it takes a few minutes.
