FUTURAMA

Originally I was sceptical about this animated TV show, when a friend of mine suggested it to me, but I must say now I am quite impressed and decided to share that in here. It's a no way something watchable for kids in my oppinion, especially taking into consideration what the robot (one of my favourite characters:) usually say he likes: hook*rs and black jack....?!:) Ok, the show is futuristic, sci-fi humorous, very entertaining and unusual stuff to watch. I started to like it from the moment I saw how in the year 3000 people already have made up all kinds of things to ease their lifes...or just finish them:) In 1st episod you will see how Philip J. Fry meets Bender, waiting on a line for suicide booth... Funny as it is the boy from 20th century, who unwillingly and strangely woke up in 30th century thought that was a phone call booth. Sadly it turned out to be a suicide booth, which at the same time was hilarious. I guess the message was that if you have a bad day in the year 3000, you can always pay 25 cents and just finish the pain whatsoever. I just like the humour in Futurama, it's so cool. Currently my favourite characters are: Bender & Nibbler. I checked online for better describtion of them creatures and here it is what I found in wiki:)

Bender: Bender is a foul-mouthed, heavy-drinking, cigar-smoking, kleptomaniacal, misanthropic, egocentric, ill-tempered robot manufactured by Mom's Friendly Robot Company. He was originally programmed to bend girders for suicide booths, and is later designated as assistant sales manager and cook, despite lacking a sense of taste. He is described by Leela as an "alcoholic, whore-mongering, chain-smoking gambler":):):)
 

 

Nibbler: Nibbler is Leela's pet Nibblonian, whom she rescued from an imploding planet and adopted early in the series. He is a fictional character from the animated television series Futurama. He is voiced by Frank Welker, who provides not only his speaking lines but also the various noises he makes when not speaking English.

During most of the series Nibbler masquerades as an innocent, cute and unintelligent pet. In very rare circumstances he may break his undercover identity and suddenly be discovered to be super-intelligent, equipped with unique technology and strange natural abilities, which he uses as part of his secret mission to preserve the existence of the entire universe. In most instances everyone else's memories of his true nature are erased but, as of Futurama: Bender's Big Score, the entire Planet Express crew is aware of his sapience, and he shifts between identities more frequently and casually. In "That Darn Katz!", he becomes a fellow crew member.

Nibbler is highly intelligent and capable of communication, but uses telepathic manipulation to simulate human speech because his natural speech is incomprehensible jabber. For most of the series he masquerades as a rather unintelligent animal in order to avoid suspicion while he goes about his mission of protecting the Earth in general and Fry in particular from the evil Brainspawn. He reveals his mission to anyone else only when expecting to wipe their memory of it afterwards.
