I'm a big Futurama fan, a show cancelled way before its time, though I am (sort of) happy with the recent release of the Futurama movies. Nonetheless, for any fans, what are some of your favorite quotes or scenes from the show? Here are a few of mine:
25 star general Zapp Brannigan: Call me cocky, but if there's an alien I can't kill, I haven't met him and killed him yet.
Ibid: Once we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate!
Bureaucrat Hermes Conrad: Without machines, who will feed us and clothe us and compose our smooth jazz?
Bureaucrat 1.0: Bureaucrat Conrad, you are technically correct, the best form of correct.
Philip Fry: So I really am important? How I feel when I'm drunk? Niblonian: Yes, except that the Dave Matthews Band doesn't rock.
Zapp Branigan: What makes a man go neutral? Lust for power? Money? Or were you just born with a heart filled with neutrality?
Just a few examples.

Morbo: Morbo is having trouble reading his teleprompter. He forgets how you make the sound of the man with the little hat. Female anchor: It's a "t." It goes "ta." Morbo: Hello, little man. I WILL DESTROY YOU!

Lrrr, Ruler of Omicron Persei 8: This is ancient Earth's most confusing program. Why does, Ross, the largest of the "Friends" simply not eat the other 5? Ndnda: Perhaps they are saving that for sweeps.

I'm not usually one for catchphrases, but "Good news, everyone!" is heard often in this house.

Farnsworth: In this box is an experiment that may win me the Nobel Prize. Leela: In which field? Farnsworth: I don't care. They all the pay the same.
Bender: Soon we will wage a war against technology worthy to be chronicled in an anthem by Rush.
Fry: I deserve the same respect as any college graduate gets.

Professor Hubert Farnsworth: Shut up friends. My internet browser heard us saying the word Fry and it found a movie about Philip J. Fry for us. It also opened my calendar to Friday and ordered me some french fries.
[Al Gore is sponsoring a convention] Al Gore: I must go now, to help collect cans on Jupiter. [urban accent] Al Gore: Peace out, y'all.
Leela: You can't go to Omega 3. It's forbidden. I forbid you. Fry: But we have to. The world needs Star Trek to give people hope for the future. Leela: But it's set 800 years in the past. Bender: Yeah, why is it so important to you? Fry: Because it... it taught me so much. Like, how you should accept people, whether they be black, white, Klingon or even female...
[a brain parasite that was attached to Fry's head is found dead] Professor Hubert Farnsworth: Poor little fella. Died of starvation.

"O fate most cruel, to be thusly boned! Ask not for whom the bone bones - it bones for thee." - Bender
"You may have to 'metaphorically' make a deal with the 'devil.' And by 'devil,' I mean Robot Devil. And by 'metaphorically,' I mean get your coat." - Bender
"Oh, a lesson in not altering history from Mr. 'I'm-My-Own-Grandpa'! Let's get out of here! Screw history!" - Professor Farnsworth
"Don't kill me just yet. I think I'm coming down with Stockholm Syndrome... handsome!" - Bender
"Your Neutralness, it's a beige alert!" "If I don't survive, tell my wife 'hello'." - Leaders of Neutral planet

President of the DOOP: What are your thoughts on this momentous occasion, your Neutralness? Neutral President: I have no strong feelings one way or the other.
Bender (crushing CDs): Take that Beethoven, you deaf bastard!
Fry: I deserve the same respect as any other college dropout gets! (correcting earlier entry I made)
Zapp Branigan: Fly the white flag of war!
Zapp Branigan: Leela, before the battle, maybe you'd like to make love to me in case one of us doesn't make it back. Leela: How about after the battle? In case neither of us makes it back? Zapp Branigan: Here's hopeing!
