S12/S9E09 - “The Futurama Mystery Liberry”, Discussion
So Season 12 (or 9, the count is vague) has been a bit of a mixed bag for me, but i absolutely loved this episode. Granted, it isn't that the writing is that great, but overall and including the Themes and Throwbacks it's a solid 8/10 for me personally. You see, "The Three Investigators" have a very special place here in Germany and they are very popular - i and many others grew up on them and i still love listening to the audio books. They don't take themselves overly serious and it's just innocent riddles. The homage Futurama paid them was just great! Same goes for Tin Tin's Adventures, i've been glued to the comic books as a kid and they do a really good job there as well. The last one fell a bit short, until Neil DeGrasse Tyson came up and had some really great one liners. And well, LeVar Burton is just LeVar Burton. Awesome Episode for me, but i may be very heavily biased on this one :D

Found this interesting. I never saw the updated version, but I am guessing I probably wouldn't have noticed the change. Just a random article I came across thinking you might enjoy. Or not. If I die, tell my wife hello.

Hey all. Hope everyone is having a nice summer. I am on my summer vacation and came across this sculpture in Asheville, NC. Thought I'd share it with this community. Reminded me of the Bending in the Wind episode when Bender plays the washboard on stage with Beck. Cheers!

Regarding Spoilers for the Upcoming Season
Greetings all! After a discussion with the mod team, we've decided to handle spoilers for the upcoming season as such: Each week we will open one sticky post a day or so prior to the new episode. Please use that post for all relevant discussion. After one week, commentary on the episode will be considered free-for-all and a new discussion post will be pinned for the following episode release and so forth until the season is complete. If for some reason you would like to post seperately from the stickied post, please be considerate of others and 1) use [SPOILER] in the post title 2) avoid including images that might ruin another community member's experience in the title-image area. 3) if you are posting directly from the lemmy.world website, please refer to this post on how to use the spoiler function . [How to post spoilers in lemmy](https://lemmy.world/post/498805). Many users who are accessing the fediverse through third party apps (mlem, jeroba, liftoff, voyager, etc.) may not have the spoiler feature available when reading and/or posting so please keep that in mind. If anyone else has questions or thoughts on the matter, feel free to reply. We want this to be an enjoyable experience for us all. Thanks!

Wishing everyone a safe and joyful new year!

Which character do you identify most with?
I am very much neutral-good with lawful tendencies and therefore feel Leela represents me the most.

I can hear him hacking in the other room from behind a closed door. I just hope I get some love beads out of this when it's all over 🫤

So I am thinking about hosting a Futurama party for the new season premiere. I want to have Futurama theme food and drinks. First thing that comes to my head is Popplers (popcorn chicken or shrimp) and the Slurm recipe I found here [https://www.theflavorbender.com/homemade-slurm-drink-futurama/](https://www.theflavorbender.com/homemade-slurm-drink-futurama/). What other food/drink ideas do you suggest?

New Season on July 24
I am excited for a new season but I hope it doesn't "raise my expectations and dash them expertly" like Disenchantment did. What's your thoughts?

Thank you in advance for your work down-under. I feel comfortable knowing that when I am sleeping (due to the time zone difference) you will be (maybe) single-handedly running the mine... I mean community.

Greetings fellow Earthicans. As we had our first inappropriate post yesterday and the storms in my area took my power out for most of the day, I realized it would be nice to recruit a few good individuals willing to keep this community troll-free and help review comments/posts regularly. Please let me know if you have interest in doing so. Thanks! Edit: going to go with this for now. Thanks to all. Will adjust as needed.

If you look at the meta icon, take Mom's hair and flip it 180 degrees. Coincidence?

Favorite Futurama cameos?
While there are so many actors and pop-culture icons who added to the beauty of this show, being a huge Star Trek geek, I have to go with the cast that participated in the episode Where No Fan Has Gone Before ![https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/b61f4c98-7e43-4891-bca2-65adb7620e18.jpeg](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/b61f4c98-7e43-4891-bca2-65adb7620e18.jpeg) Honorable mention to Bea Arthur as Femputer.

Fing-longer? Smell-o-scope? What-if machine? Death clock? Empathy chip? Etc. Personally I would like to use the electronium hat on my dogs to see what they really think... Maybe 🤔

What is/are your least favorite character(s)? Unpopular opinions welcome.
For me, I would have to say Minx fom the episode 2-D Blacktop. [https://theinfosphere.org/Minx](https://theinfosphere.org/Minx) I just feel her backstory is annoying and way too drawn out. It really doesn't add anything to the episode just detracts from the enjoyment for me.
