I thought that was a great episode for Zoidberg (the umbrella joke especially). Hermes too. On the sidelines, but awesome.

I spotted the waterwheel bot from Bender's fantasy in Obsoletely Fabulous at the party, dancing with Malfunctioning Eddy.
And the judge from the pet contest and Jack Nicholson in a Gorilla body. Damn, they crammed a ton of past characters into that one scene.
The Masked Unit was there even though he "died". The king from Trisol in My Three Suns. Anglene. Nurse Ratchet was there with Dr. Perceptron. Roberto. The Fem Bot Bea Aurthur played in the Amazon episode. The Whale Biologist. The penis-face bartender from the nude beach planet was dancing with the Don Bot's wife.

Thousands of hot, local singles are waiting to play at bubbulon.com.
The water aliens I forget the name of that Fry was the emperor of were there, and a bunch of other characters I noticed but didn't commit to memory for reasons of WOOOOO FOOTBALL.

"This calls for a party baby! I'm ordering 100 cakes, 100 hookers, and 100 Elvis impersonators, who are aren't above a little hooking, should the occasion arise!"
I noticed hedonism bot was being carried around by an elvis impersonator later on
The robot that was in the insane asylum petting/combing hair (who at one point replaced Fry's hair in a different episode) was there.
I missed the first few minutes; I'm guessing there's some reason they were at that ball. It was alright. I don't quite know what makes it special for being the 100th episode aside from a party for delivering their hundreth package (only 100?).

There's a reason their delivery company makes so little money and the insant leela took over it became a success

Well, they did another "cram as many obscure characters in as possible" moment, although not as huge as in the final (?) movie.
But beyond that, and IMO a huge step forward in the plot of a lot of the characters, it was just an all around excellent episode. And Hermes' comment works, as PlanEx existed since at least 2997.

Really at this point Planet Express doesn't need to deliver packages: given the number of times they've almost destroyed the universe they could take over all of creation whenever they wanted to.

Alternatively, you'd think there'd be a decent chunk of reward money or donations from the number of times they've saved the planet and/or universe.
...maybe that's off-set by the number of times they've nearly destroyed it.

God, imagine the kind of lawsuits you would get when your delivery boy drinks the emperor.
I think the issue was settled when the Emperor got to kick the crap out of Fry. I think most issues in Futurama were solved by harming Fry, either directly or indirectly.

I think the professor says it best himself, when he says that the business is like a family, a source of cheap labor. It's also really there to be a tax shelter as a failing business because he has phat stacks of cash.

This isn't the justice system I know and love. You beat them up and sue anyway.
The Saturday/Sunday marathons were helpful. They let me catch the beginning of the 100th episode (the land Titanic is better that way, at the very least).
Ha! I didn't catch it the first time, but when Fry leaves the Land Titanic to go jump in the lake, there's another can of Angry Norwegian Brand Anchovies.

Ya, that was pretty great.

"No."

Damn, this was one fantastic episode. It felt more like a classic episode than any of them so far
Yeah that was great. I love it when they do things like this.
I really need to see this movie.
Also they played the second What-If episode later last night.

Yes.
And i'm so glad none of the others called him out on it.

That line puzzled me but cartoons aren't really inadvertent...it just had no place?
It made perfect sense. The lady was so snooty and influential the souffle didn't want to risk it's social standing by exploding .
