I think that Futurama is so funny and futuristic.Post what you think of Futurama.

So, FluFFy, are you "into" Futurama and The Simpsons or were you just furthering the discussion about Fry and Bender?
Convention-defying genres.
Types.
Whatever.

Fry and Bender are both lazy, stupid bachelor-lad-types.
So is Homer, but with less bachelor, and more struggling father.
Hardly genre-defying conventions before we even get started.

Grampa Simpson still isn't as funny as Farnsworth though. I agree that the laughs aren't exactly constant and hard with either of the two, but then they don't get that much screen time each
To be fair, though, Grampa Simpson isn't as much of a main character as Farnsworth (he doesn't appear in as many episodes and doesn't live with the family) so hasn't had as much "oppurtunity to shine"
They still add to their respective programmes and cause occassional laughs. Farnsworth also does a lot of joke "setups" for other characters

I'd say both Fry and Bender draw elements of their characters from both Homer and Bart.
They are both a mixture of the two.

For a reason why (to Walrus) Farnsworth is funny see Cweeks' first quote below (I mean ... Rai)
"Everyone, I have a very dramatic announcement, so anyone with a weak heart should leave now. Goodbye!"
"You're watching Futurama, the show that doesn't condone the cool crime of robbery."

"I think you could make a metaphorical deal with the Devil, and by the Devil I mean Robot Devil, and by metaphorical I mean, get your coat!"
Yeah, Bender and Homer are both extreme alcoholics. Fry and Bart also have things in common.
Grr... if anyone wants me, I'll be in the angry dome!
