When you do things right, people won’t be sure you’ve done anything at all.”

Godfellas (S3E20) was more than a Futurama episode. It was a philosophical uppercut dressed in cartoon clothes.

Bender, flung into space, becomes a god to a civilization living on his body. Then he meets God. But not the kind of god people argue about — the kind that’s quiet, unknowable, and… maybe always listening.

This is one of those episodes where animation transcended the medium.

What did this one unlock for you?

Was it Bender’s journey? The miniature society? Or the divine silence that said everything?

We tuned in expecting jokes and space hijinks.

What we got… was Seymour.

This wasn’t just a cartoon episode. It was a punch to the soul.

No dialogue. No manipulation. Just one dog… waiting.

Futurama showed us that animated stories could hit harder than real life.

Some of us still aren't over it.

Points are awarded to those who points themselves.

Do they change position of the meeting table sometimes btw?

300 points will be awarded in the form of a tricky Dick fun bill.

This is a VERY specific episode. Because this is so hard, I’m going to give you extra images below.

Bob Uecker brought the Brewers to life for generations of fans. And that was just the start of a second career in entertainment that reached far beyond the ballpark.

Uecker, the backup catcher turned Hollywood star, and the legendary radio voice of his hometown team for more than five decades, has died. He was 90.

Hello everyone, let's have a somewhat harder one this time. Good luck :-)

Goodmorning everyone. First guess the episode for the year. Let's start it with a medium one.

Interesting video I saw on YouTube which definitively shows whether Nibbler’s shadow was in the original airing of the pilot. Skip to 23:50 for the answer.

The Infosphere has been down for at least a few days now.. does anyone know what happened to it?

Since I go on vacation after today let's celebrate freedom with a very very hard one :-) To spice things up I will donate 5$ to doctors without borders when first person nails which episode this is from.

And yes, it is from Futurama :-)

Hint 1: Kiff, Zap, Leela and Amy are shown a lot in this episode.
