<div>Η Ινφοσφερε είναι η μεγαλύτερη τράπεζα γνώσεων Φυτοραμα στον ιστό. Ξεκίνησε στις 30 Ιανουαρίου 2006, ως παράλληλο έργο του «Βύδδυ13».<br />
<br />
Η Ινφοσφερε εξακολουθεί να προσελκύει την προσοχή της βάσης των fan του Φυτοραμα ως την καλύτερη πηγή για ασήμαντες πληροφορίες, τρίβια και εγκυκλοπαίδειες για το Φυτοραμα.<br />

Ιστορία [επεξεργασία]<br />
<br />
<br />
Το δεύτερο δέρμα της Έμφυσης<br />
Η Ινφοσφερε αρχικά ξεκίνησε ως ένα δευτερεύον πλευρικό έργο από τον Βύδδυ13 ως ένα μέρος για να αποθηκεύσει οτιδήποτε γνώριζε για το Φυτοραμα, αφού διαπίστωσε ότι πολλοί οπαδοί του Φυτοραμα ήταν υπερ-εξειδικευμένοι ή είχαν κενά στις πληροφορίες τους. Αποφάσισε την πλατφόρμα ΜεδιαΒική, επειδή ήταν μια από τις απλές λύσεις που προσφέρει ο ΤρεαμΧοστ, ο πρώην οικοδεσπότης της Ινφοσφερε.<br />
<br />
Η Ινφοσφερε μεγάλωσε σε δημοτικότητα και γενικά απευθύνθηκε σε όλο και πιο τακτικά μέλη από το ΠΈΙΛΙΝ, που θα συνεισέφεραν στο βίκυ. Η αύξηση της δημοτικότητας οδήγησε σε μια αλλαγή στη διεύθυνση ΩΡΛ, καθώς η διεύθυνση ΩΡΛ που υπήρχε τότε (φυτοραμα.οβερτ-οπς.κομ) ήταν δύσκολο να θυμηθεί για τον μέσο επισκέπτη.<br />
<br />
Στα τέλη του 2007, ο ιστότοπος είδε μια αλλαγή διάταξης και μια τυπική αλλαγή που εισάγει ινφοπόχες στο βίκυ καθώς και δευτερεύουσες αλλαγές στο σχεδιασμό για το βίκυ για να το κρατήσει πιο κομψό.<br />
<br />
Προβλήματα διακομιστή [επεξεργασία]<br />
Κατά τη διάρκεια του 2008, το ΤρεαμΧοστ έβγαλε την Ινφοσφερε επειδή χρησιμοποιούσε πολύ χρόνο ΣΠΥ στους διακομιστές της, οι οποίοι μοιράζονταν με άλλους. Ο ιστότοπος μεταφέρθηκε γρήγορα σε μια μικρή σειρά διακομιστών ως αποτέλεσμα. Η Ινφοσφερε μεταφέρθηκε ξανά στο ΤρεαμΧοστ μετά από μια προσπάθεια βελτιστοποίησης, αλλά δεν ήταν ακόμα αρκετό, καθώς το ΤρεαμΧοστ δεν μπορούσε να παράσχει την απαιτούμενη απαιτούμενη τοποθεσία για την απαιτούμενη χρήση της ΣΠΥ.<br />
<br />
Η Ινφοσφερε τοποθετήθηκε προσωρινά σε ένα διακομιστή στο γερμανικό Χεχώνετ, που φιλοξενήθηκε σε μια ειδική μηχανή. Αργότερα εκείνο το έτος, ο ιστότοπος μεταφέρθηκε σε ένα εικονικό μηχάνημα που φιλοξενήθηκε από το ίδιο κέντρο δεδομένων.<br />
<br />
Προσφορές της Βικιά [επεξεργασία]<br />
Ο μόνος διαγωνισμός για την Ινφοσφερε παρέμεινε το Φυτοραμα Βίκυ της Βικιά. Η Βικιά έχει προτείνει τουλάχιστον δύο φορές μια συνεργασία μεταξύ τους και της Ινφοσφερε. Ένα από τα επιχειρήματα που χρησιμοποίησαν οι υποστηρικτές των υποστηρικτών της Βικιά είναι οι καλύτεροι εξυπηρετητές και η έλλειψη ανταγωνισμού.<br />
<br />
Ωστόσο, οι συντάκτες της Ινφοσφερε έχουν αρνηθεί τη δυνατότητα συνεργασίας με το Βικιά'σ Φυτοραμα Βίκυ, επειδή θα περιλάμβανε πάρα πολλούς περιορισμούς στο βίκυ όπως είναι. Ένα βασικό ζήτημα με τη συμφωνία ήταν για τους συντάκτες της Ινφοσφερε, το γεγονός ότι η Βικιά είναι ένας κερδοσκοπικός οργανισμός που εκδίδει διαφημίσεις στα βίκυς, κάτι που η Ινφοσφερε δεν θα ήθελε να δει στο δικό της βίκυ. Οι υποστηρικτές των Βικιά, από την άλλη πλευρά, πρότειναν οι διαφημίσεις να ενθαρρύνουν τους χρήστες να εγγραφούν και να γίνουν συνεργάτες, καθώς οι διαφημίσεις εξαφανίζονται όταν συνδεθείτε.<br />
<br />
Οι συντάκτες της Ινφοσφερε ανέφεραν επίσης ότι, παρά τα περιστασιακά ζητήματα σέρβερ τους, έκαναν καλά και δεν είχαν ανάγκη διακομιστών της Βικιά. Ωστόσο, δεν συμφώνησαν ότι το περιεχόμενο του βίκυ της Βικιά ήταν πολύ αδύναμο για το ποιοτικό πρότυπο της Ινφοσφερε και αυτό το περιεχόμενο θα ήταν καλύτερα να αποφευχθεί. Για να μην αναφέρουμε ότι ο ιδρυτής της Ινφοσφερε, Βύδδυ13, εξακολουθεί να φιλοξενεί τη δυσαρέσκεια του γεγονότος ότι το Βικιά βίκυ έκανε τη συνήθεια να κλέβει τις εικόνες τους απευθείας από την Ινφοσφερε. Δεν είναι γνωστό αν η πρακτική αυτή συνεχίζεται.<br />
<br />
Σταθερότητα [επεξεργασία]<br />
Από τα τέλη του 2009, στις αρχές του 2010, η Ινφοσφερε παρέμεινε σε σχετική σταθερότητα καθώς συνεχίζονται οι προσπάθειές της για την παροχή ολοκληρωμένου οδηγού σε όλα τα Φυτοραμα. Ωστόσο, η Ινφοσφερε έχει αυξηθεί σημαντικά στον Τύπο ως αποτέλεσμα της επιστροφής του Φυτοραμα και της αυξημένης δημοτικότητάς του. Στην πραγματικότητα, η προβολή της έχει κερδίσει την προσοχή των συγγραφέων της ίδιας της Φυτοραμα για λόγους αναφοράς. [1]<br />

Πρόσθετες πληροφορίες [επεξεργασία]<br />
Τρίβια [επεξεργασία]<br />
Στο "Θε Ωκυτοκίνη Οφ Φρύ", ο Γιββλερ λέει ότι ο Βραίν Σπάων χτίζει την Ινφοσφερε εδώ και χίλια χρόνια, υποδηλώνοντας ότι η Ινφοσφερε δημιουργήθηκε γύρω στο 2004. Αυτό το βίκυ δημιουργήθηκε το 2006.<br />

<br />
'''C. Randall Poopenmeyer''' is a male [[Humans|Human]] and the '''Mayor''' of [[New New York]] since at least the year [[3000]]. He is attending to countless public occasions, like the opening of a new [[Tube Transport System|tube]] line, the reward of civic heroism, or the [[Annual Astor Endowment Fundraiser]]. In spite of his marriage to [[Mrs. Poopenmeyer]], the Mayor seems rather promiscuous, being often seen with other women, such as the [[Queen of Yonkers]]. However, he may have just been showing the visiting dignitary around the {{cat|cit||y}} as one of his duties.<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Mayor Poopenmeyer is often portrayed as incompetent and ΝΕΡΔ, rather unintelligent, bribable and a pushover, especially in "[[The Mutants Are Revolting]]", where he obviously goes along with whatever [[Mrs. Astor|his largest campaign contributor]] tells him to do. σο μανυ νερδσ ιν φουτουραμα. ΦΟΥ ΤΟΥ ΡΑΜΑ.<br />
<br />
== Biography ==<br />
As the Mayor of [[New New York]], C. Randall Poopenmeyer helped save [[Earth]] from the [[giant ball of garbage|giant garbage ball]] {{et|1ACV08}}, opened new [[Tube Transport System|tube]] lines to alleviate rush hour traffic in the city {{et|2ACV08}}, gave [[Bender Bending Rodríguez|Bender]] the award for the biggest {{cat|fishe|fish}} ever caught {{et|2ACV12}}, took a part in the execution of the death penalty of [[Robot|Robots]] {{et|3ACV03}}, was the main customer of the [[New Justice Team]] {{et|4ACV04}}, attended [[Leela: Orphan of the Stars|Fry's opera]] {{et|4ACV18}}, mated with [[Yivo|a planet-sized monster]] ([[The Beast with a Billion Backs|TBwaBB]]), attended the [[Violet Dwarf Star Implosion]] ceremony ([[Into the Wild Green Yonder|ItWGY]]), hosted the [[3010]] edition of the [[Annual e-Waste Recycling Festival]], wherein citizens were encouraged to throw out old electronic appliances {{et|6ACV03}}, and finally granted the [[Sewer Mutants]] their freedom {{et|6ACV12}}.<br />

== Additional Info ==<br />
=== Trivia ===<br />
*He is similar to {{w|Joe Quimby|Mayor Joe Quimby}} from ''[[The Simpsons]]'' is several aspects, who, in turn, is similar to {{w|John F. Kennedy}}.<br />
*His name was only created as a joke. When the giant garbage ball was about to destroy [[Earth]] in "[[A Big Piece of Garbage]]" (a very serious situation), they cut to Mayor Poopenmeyer (a very non-serious name).<br />
*His full name is first mentioned aloud in the episode "[[Raging Bender]]".<br />

<br />
=== Synopsis ===<br />
<br />
Lord Nibbler was responsible for pushing [[Philip J. Fry|Fry]] into the [[Applied Cryogenics|cryogenic tube]] and sending him to the year [[3000]]. Nibbler was stationed on [[Vergon 6]] until [[Turanga Leela|Leela]] discovered him there and instantly fell for his cuteness. He is the Nibblonian Ambassador on [[Earth]] and has [[That Darn Katz!|recently]] become a member of the Planet Express crew.<br />
<br />
=== Stationed on Vergon 6 ===<br />
<br />
[[File:Nibbler first.png|thumb|Nibbler's first appearance, meeting [[Turanga Leela|Leela]] on [[Vergon 6]].{{er|1ACV04}}]]<br />
<br />
Lord Nibbler was born on [[Planet Eternium]] in [[274 BC]], making him almost 3300 years old, one of the oldest characters in [[Futurama|the series]]. Not much is known of Nibbler's biography before New Years' Eve, [[1999]], at which time he was stationed at the planet [[Vergon 6]] alongside a great number of his species.<ref>Nibbler mentions that he was stationed on [[Vergon 6]] in his conversation with Fry at Applied Cryogenics on 31 December, 1999 in "[[The Why of Fry]]".</ref> At this time, the [[Nibblonians]] had learned that [[Philip J. Fry]] was "the Mighty One", the only being in [[Universe Γ|the universe]] capable of stopping the [[Brain Spawn]] [[3004|over a thousand years later]]. However, because Fry lived in the [[20th century]], Nibbler got the mission to make sure that he fell into the cryogenic tube at [[Applied Cryogenics]], frozen until the year [[3000]].<br />
<br />
Nibbler continued to be stationed on [[Vergon 6]] for the next thousand years, but due to [[Dark Matter]] being the excrement of the Nibblonians, the planet's core was slowly filled with the valuable Dark Matter. As a result, a [[DOOP]] mining operation started, and as the core was mined out, the planet was left hollow and as a consequence dangerously sensitive for a coming implosion. The Nibblonians soon fled the planet, but Nibbler was pooping at the time, and was thus left behind.<br />
<br />
=== Hiding his intelligence ===<br />
<br />
On 13 April, [[3000]], the Planet Express crew - [[Turanga Leela|Leela]], [[Bender Bending Rodríguez|Bender]] and [[Philip J. Fry|Fry]] - landed on Vergon 6 to rescue the animals left from the coming implosion of the planet. They encountered Nibbler (who ate the rest of the animals), and fled moments before the planet's doom. Nibbler hid his real identity and intelligence from the crew, and indeed from all non-Nibblonians he would encounter, and pretended to just be a dumb pet. Leela took Nibbler in, in the belief that he was dog-like in intelligence, and made him her pet.<br />
<br />
[[File:Lord Nibbler.jpg|thumb|left|Nibbler in his formal, [[Nibblonian]] clothing.{{er|3ACV07}}]]<br />
<br />
Lord Nibbler hid his intelligence until [[The Day the Earth Stood Stupid|the day the Earth stood stupid]], when he told Leela the truth about his origins. This eventually helped Fry defeat the [[Brain Spawn]], an enemy to the Nibblonians. Thanks to the Brain Spawn's psychic attack, Leela couldn't remember Nibbler's intelligence. Fry, on the other hand, was not affected by the Brain Spawn, thanks to him lacking the [[delta brainwave]], but no one believed him about the Brains. [[The Why of Fry|Later]], Nibbler then revealed himself again to Fry, because Fry needed to destroy the Brain Spawn's [[Infosphere]]. Afterwards Nibbler erased Fry's mind so he could remain undercover.<br />
<br />
=== Revealed to the crew ===<br />
<br />
In [[3007]], he finally [[Bender's Big Score|revealed]] his true nature to the whole crew during a failed attempt to avert disaster and on seeing the formation of a dangerous [[Anomaly|tear in the time-space continuum]]. Nibbler escaped the universe by swallowing himself, forgetting to blank everyone's memories. He returned in 3008, after [[Yivo]] was gone. It is unknown how he managed to get back to [[Universe Gamma|our universe]]. Nibbler was kidnapped by [[Mom's sons]] and imprisoned in a dark matter farm with hundreds of other Nibblonians. After this, he once again didn't wipe their memories. Despite everybody knowing that he was sentient, the Planet Express crew continued to treat him like a pet... until August of [[3010]], when he was [[That Darn Katz!|granted]] the status of crew member.<br />

<br />
The character of Nibbler was planned before the pilot, including that he would really be a talking, intelligent alien, and that he would hold the truth of the greater conspiracy that had Fry frozen. While everything wasn't planned out from the beginning, the writers included [[Nibbler's shadow]] for a short second as Fry falls into the tube in "[[Space Pilot 3000]]", in spite of Nibbler's first real appearance being [[Love's Labours Lost in Space|several episodes later]], and in spite of the bigger conspiracy starting to unveil [[The Day the Earth Stood Stupid|several seasons later]].<br />
<br />
His original appearance was hard to pin-point. [[Matt Groening]] insisted that he was supposed to be extremely cute, but that when looking at his separate components - his eye stalk, his one nostril, his fangs - he seems really ugly. In one original design of Nibbler, he would have drool constantly hanging from his nostril, but without ever dripping.<ref>"[[Love's Labours Lost in Space]]" [[Commentary:Love's Labours Lost in Space|commentaries]]: "In designing Nibbler I went– I wanted to do– I wanted to see if I could make a character that was really ugly when you looked at the components, he's got one nostril, he's got fangs and an eye ball on a stalk on the top of his head. And yet he is really– pretty cute, huh?" - [[Matt Groening]] ([[Transcript:Commentary:Love's Labours Lost in Space|transcript]])</ref><br />
<br />
As of "[[That Darn Katz!]]", Nibbler and [[Scruffy]] are the only members of the Planet Express crew who are not [[List of primary characters|primary characters]].<br />

=== Trivia ===<br />
*Nibbler is featured on one of the discs of ''[[Futurama: The Complete Collection 1999-2009|The Complete Collection 1999-2009]]''.<br />
*When Nibbler's right fang broke in "[[I Second that Emotion]]" (when [[bite my shiny metal ass|he chewed at]] [[Bender Bending Rodríguez|Bender's]] butt), it was replaced by a tooth of belonging to [[Vet Jeffrey Grant|a veterinarian]].<br />
*If you look closely, you can see Nibbler's shadow under the chair when Fry falls into the tube in "[[Space Pilot 3000]]".<br />
**In "[[Anthology of Interest I]]", when Fry misses the freezer by an inch in the alternate future the [[What-If Machine]] shows, Nibbler's shadow is gone, though this may be why Fry doesn't go to the future in that separate version of the [[timeline]].<br />
**However, in "[[The Why of Fry]]", when Fry tries to cross Nibbler and eventually decides to let himself be sent to the future after all, there are two shadows under the desk - those of Nibbler and Fry (seen earlier in "[[Jurassic Bark]]").<br />
*[[Nibbler's spaceship]], parked inside a container near the [[Planet Express headquarters]], is just big enough to accept him and an adult human - if Nibbler scootches up his seat, that is.<br />
*The [[dark matter]] he excretes was used to fuel the [[Planet Express ship]], before the events of ''[[Bender's Game]]''.<br />
*He comes in the [[Toynami Futurama Figures|Toynami action figure line]] as an one of [[Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth|the Professor]]'s accessories.<br />
*It is unknown if Nibbler was present in [[Universe Gamma]] during the events of [[The Beast with a Billion Backs|the second movie]], as he fled it by the end of [[Bender's Big Score|the first one]].<br />
*He won a {{w|Tony Award}} for his performance in ''[[Nibbler on the Roof]]''.<br />
*He planted a tracking chip in Leela's [[Wristlojackimator]] for emergencies.<br />
*His third eye can summon [[Nibbler's spaceship|his ship]] and change the appearance of other beings (this has only been done to Fry), however, this drains his strength and he can only keep it up for a short period of time.<br />
*Nibbler ate himself to get out of [[Universe Γ]], implying that his stomach transports matter to another universe.<br />

During a routine delivery to the deleted file planet, [[Junkleon 7]], the [[Planet Express]] crew are confronted by [[Klaxxon]], an evil being made entirely of soundwaves from podcasts from the [[21st century]].<br />
<br />
==Plot==<br />
===Part 1===<br />
After a rather lengthy introduction from Nerdist host [[Chris Hardwick]] about how this episode came about, the theme song is heard and we are welcomed into this episode by our favorite [[Transition Announcer]], Mr. Don Cunningham.<br />
<br />
βενδερ<br />
<br />
At a robot nursing home, Bender, alongside Fry and [[Amy]], who is there to interpret the sign language that Bender's mother uses. When they see her, Bender tells her the good news, but Mrs. Rodriguez acts nonchalant about it, revealing that she is close to death.<br />
<br />
At this point, listeners are treated to a fake ad from the [[Borax Kid]] for Klacch the Avenger's Borax Flakes, as well as a real ad for the mobile game ''Futurama: [[Worlds of Tomorrow]]'' from [[Hermes]] and Zoidberg.<br />
<br />
===Part 2===<br />
Back at the nursing home, the doctor reveals that Bender's mother is suffering from planned obsolescence, and that she will be dying within a matter of days.<br />
<br />
Less than a week later, it is the day of the recording of the podcast. All the cast members, including Calculon, [[Monique]], [[Boxy Robot]], and [[Human Friend]], are at the studio. But Bender arrives late, bringing some friends along, including Fry, Leela, [[Bubblegum]], [[Hattie]], [[Randy Munchnik|Randy]], [[Roberto]] and [[Fatbot]]. As Bender's guests take their seats, Fry and Leela are still arguing over the sculpture. When the recording session begins, in this episode, Calculon mutilates himself making a birdhouse and is visited on his deathbed by Monique, Boxy and Dr. Human Friend. When Antonio enters, he is about to tell his father something, when the item Bender stole from Junkleon 7 falls out of his chest cavity and will not go back in. The item, resembling a sound wave, begins speaking, calling himself [[Klaxxon]].<br />
<br />
At the Professor's laboratory, he takes a look at the item inside Bender's cavity, revealing it to be a Podcast Containment Device, or PCD for short. It was used in the 21st century to contain all the unlistened to podcasts. Klaxxon returns explaining his desire is to be heard by everyone, since no one ever listened to his podcasts. Suddenly, the Earth is completely swarmed with 58 billion podcasts in all directions.<br />
<br />
We go into another ad break, in which the Borax Kid reveals that the funds for Klacch the Avenger's Borax Flakes are used to help Klacch break out of jail. This is followed by another ad for ''Worlds of Tomorrow'' announced by [[Terry]]. Finally, Don Cunningham introduces the newest sponsor for the podcast, [[the Robot with No Name]], who ends up having an existential crisis.<br />
<br />
===Part 3===<br />
[[Morbo]] and [[Linda]] interrupt the podcast to report on the 58 billion podcasts invading Earth's atmosphere. Linda begins suffering from audio madness and hits Morbo repeatedly on the head with her microphone.<br />
<br />
Back at Planet Express, the Professor gives the crew some podcast-cancelling earplugs to block out all the podcasts. After they plug their ears, the crew is back in the presence of Klaxxon, who announces his further intentions to use the Earth itself as a loudspeaker for all his podcasts, thereby leaving the planet in ruins. He departs the building and burrows underground, his destination being the core of the Earth.<br />
<br />
In [[Washington, D.C.]], Earth President [[Richard Nixon's head]] confers with general [[Zapp Brannigan]] about the situation. Zapp suggests taking off in an escape pod, which he does, leaving behind Nixon and [[Kif]].<br />
<br />
The Professor comes up with a plan to install the drill cone onto the ship and intercept Klaxxon. Leela stays behind in a sensory deprivation chamber resembling an electric coffin filled with Vaseline, so she can better sense Klaxxon's location and give the crew his coordinates via a ham radio. As everyone else boards the ship, Bender also takes his dying mother with him.<br />
<br />
As they drill to the center of the Earth, they follow Leela's directions for Klaxxon's coordinates. Unfortunately, Leela loses Klaxon's location. Soon, Klaxxon's plan moves forward and the Earth begins to crumble, leaving everyone in a state of panic.<br />
<br />
Back at Planet Express, the power goes out, and Leela loses contact with the ship. Fearing she will die, her memories turn back to Fry's 3D sculpture. Through a sudden realisation described by Don Cunningham, she is actually able to picture the sculpture in more than one dimension. Through a further epiphany, she is also able to locate Klaxxon.<br />
<br />
Underground, the Planet Express crew is being tortured by millions of tedious podcasts about embroidery, when Fry suddenly hears Leela speak, who is able to yell among multiple three-dimensional paths at once. She gives the coordinates of Klaxxon, but is drowned out by all of the podcasts. Fortunately, Fry was able to catch everything she said. Once they reach the coordinates, they compress Klaxxon into a [[Diamondium]] walnut shell. Farnsworth instructs Bender to squeeze the shell, but since Bender is a bending unit, he bends it instead. So he leaves the squeezing to his mother. With every fiber of her being, she squeezes Klaxxon out of existence.<br />
<br />
The crew returns to Planet Express to meet an elated Leela. Fry begins to apologise for the sculpture, but instead Leela thanks Fry for it. She attempts to kiss him, but Zoidberg somehow beats her to it. To show her gratefulness, she shows that she recovered the sculpture and put it on display outside the building for all to see. Back inside, Bender and Amy are at Mrs. Rodriguez's side during her final moments. Suddenly, Calculon dramatically bursts in, and Bender and Calculon act out the ''All My Circuits'' podcast live for her. Unfortunately, she passes away due to Calculon's dramatic pauses. Bender feels sad that he will never be able to tell his mother how much he loved her, but suddenly, his mother, now voiced, confirms she heard every word. She tells him that when she squeezed Klaxxon, Klaxxon and she somehow became one. Bender declares they party, and so they party into the night, leaving their white uniforms completely stained.<br />
<br />
After Don Cunningham reads out the credits, Bender gives one last plug for ''Futurama: Worlds of Tomorrow'', with some assistance from the [[Hypnotoad]].<br />

On {{date|8 September}} [[2017]], the [[Worlds of Tomorrow]] Facebook page was updated with a promotional graphic promoting "Radiorama".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.facebook.com/playfuturama/photos/a.199014500581379.1073741826.190087858140710/294696024346559/?type=3&theater |title=Worlds of Tomorrow Radiorama Facebook cover photo |date=2017-08-09 |site=[https://www.facebook.com/playfuturama Futurama: Worlds of Tomorrow Facebook page]|accessdate=2017-09-10}}</ref> Chris Hardwick revealed that he was voicing the villain, Klaxxon. Hardwick revealed that he pitched the idea of doing an audio episode on the Nerdist podcast to Matt Groening and David X. Cohen in [[2016]]. The episode came together due to [[TinyCo]], the company that runs the freemium game based on ''Futurama'', ''[[Worlds of Tomorrow]]''.

<br />
=== Trivia ===<br />
*This is the first audio episode of Futurama.<br />
*The [[Transition Announcer]]'s name is revealed to be Don Cunningham.<br />
*While this episode had two fake [[sponsor]]s, it was also the first one to have a ''real'' sponsor, in the form of the ''Worlds of Tomorrow'' app.<br />
*The 3D sculpture of Fry was one of the mystery prizes given away in the ''Worlds of Tomorrow'' app.<br />
<br />
===Allusions===<br />
*Bender claiming him being voted as the "Worst Actor of All Time" as "fake news" due to "millions of illegal voters" are the same claims made by {{w|Donald Trump}}.<br />
*Leela says of the sculpture that they should "Drop it like it's hot and let's go", a reference to the {{w|Snoop Dogg}} song {{w|Drop It Like It's Hot|of the same name}}.<br />
*Don Cunningham mentions that Tokyo was accustomed to daily "Godzillings", a reference to the Japanese movie monster {{w|Godzilla}}.<br />
*When Leela has her first epiphany, she shouts, "Jinkies!", which is the catch phrase of {{w|Velma Dinkley}} on ''{{w|Scooby-Doo}}'', and previously spoken by Amy.<br />
<br />
===Continuity===<br />
*Calculon's previous deaths from [[The Thief of Baghead]] and [[Calculon 2.0]] are mentioned.<br />
*Amy mentions Bender's previous stint on ''All My Circuits'' as shown in [[Bender Should Not Be Allowed on Television]].<br />
*Bender's mother being a robotic arm was first revealed in [[Xmas Story]].<br />
*Hermes mentions throwing out Fry's opera, most likely referring to the one seen in [[The Devil's Hands are Idle Playthings]].<br />

{{update}}<br />
<br />
'''Dr. John A. Zoidberg''', commonly referred by his last name Zoidberg, is a [[Decapodian]] employed as staff doctor at [[Planet Express]]{{er|1ACV02}} and an honorary [[Globetrotter]].{{er|3ACV14}} He is only tolerated at Planet Express because of his ability to cut things.{{er|6ACV14}} An extremely poor man and a doctor of art history,{{er|6ACV05}} he is still lovable to many and hated by others.<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Desperate for acceptance, Zoidberg lives with a continuing delusion that he is well regarded by the rest of the Planet Express crew. He does appear to be rather intelligent, but he is an inept medical practitioner. Most of his co-workers look down on him, especially [[Hermes Conrad|Hermes]], who likes to make his life even more miserable. Dr. Zoidberg is [[Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth|Professor Farnsworth]]'s oldest friend, which suggests that Zoidberg is much older than he appears. A citizen of [[Earth]], he loves his chosen home planet for the personal freedom it provides.{{er|4ACV05}} He is also apparently the only intelligent organism on [[Earth]] deemed nice by the [[Santa Claus|Robot Santa Claus]].{{er|2ACV04}} It is unknown why, but it may be because of a glitch in Santa or because of Zoidberg's kind and innocent personality. Other than the professor, the only people known to identify him as a friend are the members of the [[First Planet Express crew]], [[Philip J. Fry|Fry]] (sometimes), [[Mom]] and [[Marianne|his girlfriend]].<br />
<br />
== Biography ==<br />
[[File:Anthology.jpg|right|thumb|Giant Zoidberg.{{er|2ACV16}}]]<br />
<br />
=== Early years ===<br />
<br />
Dr. Ζοιδνερδ was born on [[Decapod 10]], where he had a crush on classmate [[Edna]].{{er|2ACV05}} During that time, his face was covered in barnacles, for which he was laughed at.<br />
<br />
As a youngster, Zoidberg wanted to become a comedian, following the footsteps of his uncle [[Harold Zoid]], but he was discouraged by his guardian,<ref>Decapodians die upon mating.{{er|2ACV05}} One theory suggests that barren females care for the newly hatched young.</ref> whereupon he developed an interest in medical science.{{er|3ACV08}} Though he formulated a new plan to impress his family by becoming a doctor, he was again scolded for giving up his dream of being a comedian. Eventually, he went to medical school and left his home planet to seek his fortune on [[Earth]], although it is not known whether he studied on Decapod 10 or on Earth. He never received a doctorate in medicine for humans, but rather, in art history.{{er|6ACV05}} Though fully incompetent with humans, he treats them anyway, both at Planet Express and, apparently, outside the company (one such patient being the [[Australian man]]) . He is however, an expert on aliens, as stated by [[Professor Farnsworth]].{{er|6ACV18}}<br />
<br />
In [[2927]], Zoidberg met [[Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth]] while on a mission to capture a Tritonian [[yeti]] for [[Mom]]. During the mission, the Professor was infected with hypermalaria, which at the time, was thought to be impossible to cure. The Professor saved Zoidberg's life by killing the yeti. In exchange, Farnsworth pleaded that Zoidberg kill him as soon as the symptoms of hypermalaria started, so he wouldn't have to experience the horrible suffering.{{er|6ACV18}} Zoidberg agreed, leading to his employment at Planet Express in [[2961]], when it was founded.{{er|6ACV15}} <br />
<br />
[[File:Claw-Plach.png|thumb|left|225px|Zoidberg and his friend [[Philip J. Fry|Fry]], battling in [[Claw-Plach]].{{er|2ACV05}}]]<br />
<br />
=== Planet Express doctor ===<br />
In his early days at Planet Express in 2961, he had a brief relationship with [[Candy]], until she was eaten by a [[Four-dimensional space whales|four-dimensional space whale]].{{er|6ACV15}}<br />
<br />
During [[Xmas]] of [[3000]], Zoidberg was the only person on Earth deemed "nice" by [[Robot Santa]] and was given a pogo stick as his present.{{er|2ACV04}} In [[3001]], Zoidberg saved [[Philip J. Fry|Fry]]'s life by transplanting his head onto [[Amy Wong|Amy]]'s shoulder when his body was severely damaged in a car crash on [[Jupiter]]'s moon [[Europa]].{{er|2ACV07}}<br />
<br />
=== Mating Season ===<br />
In 3001, Zoidberg was filling with male jelly and becoming violent due to the approaching mating season for his species. He went to his home planet to find a mate, and soon became intent on sharing the ritual with his old classmate Edna. Edna was disinterested and more attracted to Fry so Zoidberg challenged Fry to the Decapodian tradition of [[Claw-Plach]]. He intended to kill Fry until he noticed the mating ritual had begun without him, so he and Fry returned to Earth as friends again.{{er|2ACV05}} <br />
<br />
Later that year, when he was trapped at the bottom of the ocean with the rest of the Planet Express crew, he found a shell to live in and planned to reside there permanently, until it somehow burned down after Bender left his cigar next to it.{{er|2ACV12}}<br />
<br />
He served as a military doctor in the 3001 conflict with [[Spheron 1]].{{er|2ACV17}}<br />
<br />
=== Attempts at comedy ===<br />
Although his medical career meant giving up his dream of becoming a comedian, Zoidberg has since tried on occasion to be a freelance comedian of some sort, but lack the necessary talent and sense of humour. In his biggest try, he even had a minor part in [[Harold Zoid|his uncle]]'s film ''[[The Magnificent Three]]'' in [[3002]].{{er|3ACV08}}<br />
<br />
When the crew had to explore Fry's body in 3002, Zoidberg made himself useful by using his limited knowledge of human anatomy to lead them through a capillary.{{er|3ACV02}} Also that year he began coughing up pearls which were sold as necklaces while the crew were following Bender on tour.{{er|3ACV13}}<br />
<br />
=== Roswell Alien ===<br />
After a supernova he was accidentally sent back in time to [[1947]] Roswell where he was captured by the [[US Army]]. He met [[Harry S. Truman|President Harry Truman]] (it is unclear which of them was more baffled by the other) and was partially vivisected. He was rescued by Fry and returned to the [[31st century|future]] where he put his organs back in (except a non-vital one) and fixed himself with duct tape.{{er|3ACV19}}<br />
<br />
When Planet Express was taken over by [[Steve Castle]], he sold all his shares for a sandwich.{{er|3ACV21}}<br />
<br />
=== Death Sentence ===<br />
In [[3003]] on [[Freedom Day]], he ate [[Old Freebie|an Earthican flag]] and was chased by an angry mob sent by [[President Nixon]]. He took refuge in his planet's embassy and was sentenced to death for his crime while in hiding. In response, the Decapodians invaded and conquered Earth, enslaving all its citizens. Eventually, Zoidberg disagreed with the takeover and helped defeat the invaders with a burning flag.{{er|4ACV05}} <br />
<br />
In [[3004]], after an accident in a health spa, he reverted back to all his childhood stages until he returned to his current age in the [[Fountain of Aging]].{{er|4ACV09}}<br />
<br />
When Professor Farnsworth created a box containing [[Universe 1|a parallel universe]], Zoidberg quickly befriended his parallel counterpart. The two Zoidbergs, fed up with how the crew treats them, stole the box containing [[Universe Γ|our universe]] and tried to escape into other universes until they were caught by Farnsworth.{{er|4ACV15}}<br />
<br />
When everyone on Earth was given a 300 dollar government refund, Zoidberg was inspired to live like a rich person, until he was mocked by Mom for thinking the money had a lot of worth. He eventually spent his money on food for a group of homeless people.{{er|4ACV16}}<br />
<br />
=== Mercy Killing ===<br />
In [[3011]], the rest of the [[Planet Express Crew|crew]] became fed up with Dr. Zoidberg's incompetence as a doctor, and demanded that the [[Hubert J. Farnsworth|Professor]] fire him.{{er|6ACV18}} However, the symptoms of hypermalaria had after several decades, finally began to infect him. Farnsworth approached Zoidberg and informed him that it was time to perform the mercy killing, only it needed to be by surprise. But before Zoidberg could carry out the act, the rest of the crew caught Zoidberg trying to kill the Professor and imprisoned him in his office, restraining him with the Professor's lab coat. On the coat, Zoidberg discovers a thin, white, [[yeti]] hair, and realizes that the Professor never had hypermalaria, but [[yetiism]], a dangerous disease with identical symptoms to hypermalaria, that turns the victim into a yeti. Shocked by this revelation, Zoidberg escapes and goes to the headquarters of [[Mom]], where he exchanges a coupon for a free tanning session for the disembodied head of a yeti. Zoidberg returns to the [[Planet Express headquarters]] just moments before the rest of the crew kill the Professor themselves, (after he revealed the truth to them) Zoidberg reveals to them that the Professor has yetiism, not hypermalaria. Using the pineal gland from the yeti's head, he creates an antidote and forces him to swallow it; just as the yeti transformation begins. The cure was successful, and the rest of the crew apologize to Zoidberg for treating him so poorly.<br />
<br />
By [[3013]], Zoidberg had gotten a job at [[Elzar's]] as a busboy.{{er|7ACV17}}<br />
<br />
Amazingly enough, by at some point in 3013, Zoidberg met [[Marianne|a flower girl]] and they began dating.{{er|7ACV25}}<br />
<br />
== Character description ==<br />
=== Family ===<br />
*[[Norm Zoidberg|Norm]], [[Sam Zoidberg|Sam]] and [[Sadie Zoidberg|Sadie]], parents,{{er|3ACV08}} presumably one is the woman who raised him,{{er|4ACV05}} the other two are deceased biological parents. It is also possible that Decapodians have three biological parents. He referred to one of them (his mother) as a saint, which was most likely just an expression. Non-[[canon]]ically, his parents' original intentions were for him to become a Lawyer.<sup>[[Claw and Order|[US#048]]]</sup><br />
*[[Harold Zoid]], uncle.{{er|3ACV08}}<br />
*His brother [[Norman Zoidberg|Norman]] and up to nine other siblings that budded from Zoidberg during the coral stage of his larval stadium. A duplicate Norman dies when he is sucked into the [[Fountain of Aging]], but all other siblings are never mentioned again.{{er|4ACV09}}<br />

*[[Cubert]], godson.{{er|6ACV09}}<br />
*Unknown ex-wife. Zoidberg's wedding album was destroyed by the Professor to make two small sweaters using the [[Banach-Tarski Dupla-Shrinker]] work.{{er|6ACV17}} Possibly [[Grrrl]],<ref><poem>'''Grrrl''': Hello.<br />
'''Zoidberg''': Of course I'll marry you!<br />
''["[[Lrrreconcilable Ndndifferences]]".]''</poem></ref> however unlikely, as Zoidberg video-dated [[Zindy]] for four years.{{er|7ACV25}}<br />

== Production ==<br />
[[File:Zoidberg lab.jpg|right|thumb|Production pic of Zoidberg's lab.]]<br />
The original inspiration and the basic traits and characteristics were developed by [[David X. Cohen]],<ref name="epTSHL-com-dxc">{{cite commentary |speaker={{n|Cohen|David|X.}} |episode=The Series Has Landed |volume=One |disc=1}}</ref> while the cartoon design was created by [[Matt Groening]]. The later refinement and addition of various traits came from the various [[:Category:Writers|writers]].<ref name="epPYHOMS-com-kk">{{cite commentary |speaker={{n|Keeler|Ken}} |episode=Put Your Head on My Shoulders |volume=Two |disc=2}}</ref><br />
<br />
Cohen's name for Dr. Zoidberg came from a video game he had developed during the [[1980s]], called "Zoid",<ref name="epTSHL-com-dxc"/> which was largely inspired by the popular arcade game {{w|Qix}}.<ref name="epTL-com-dxc">{{cite commentary |speaker={{n|Cohen|David|X.}} |episode=That's Lobstertainment! |volume=Three |disc=2}}</ref> Cohen tried to get the then famous publisher {{w|Brøderbund}} to publish the game.<ref name="epTL-com-dxc"/> Unfortunately, Brøderbund refused to publish Cohen's assembly-written game, and he shelved it.<ref name="epTL-com-dxc"/> Dr. Zoidberg was thus named to honour those wasted years in college.<ref name="epTSHL-com-dxc"/><br />
<br />
Cohen's inspiration came from {{st|Bones McCoy}} from ''[[Star Trek]]'', the doctor on the ''{{st|U.S.S. Enterprise}}''. Bones was often faced with treating aliens and other non-humans, including [[Spock]].<ref name="epTSHL-com-dxc"/> Cohen's idea for Zoidberg was the exact opposite, where an alien would perform on humans.<ref name="epTSHL-com-dxc"/> Zoidberg's trait of being a bad doctor was then established.<ref name="epPYHOMS-com-kk"/><br />
<br />
Later traits, such as his lust for seafood, became apparent in "[[A Fishful of Dollars]]". More demeaning traits such as being poor and lonely came in "[[Put Your Head on My Shoulders]]"; eating garbage and being homeless appeared later as well.<br />
<br />
Certain contradicting situations can be seen in "[[A Flight to Remember]]", where Zoidberg is seen being given a suite, something that the writers would not give him in the later course of the series.<ref name="epAFTR-com-dxc">{{cite commentary |speaker={{n|Cohen|David|X.}} |episode=A Flight to Remember |volume=One |disc=3}}</ref><br />
<br />
=== Voice ===<br />
[[Billy West]] has often stated that the voice of Zoidberg was inspired by profile {{cat|actor}}s from Yiddish theater such as {{w|Lou Jacobi}} and {{w|George Jessel (actor)|George Jessel}}. His voice may also be inspired by reggae/hip-hop {{cat|musician|singer}}, {{w|Shaggy (musician)|Shaggy}}.<br />
<br />
== Additional Info ==<br />
=== Trivia ===<br />
*Zoidberg is featured both on disc 7 of ''[[Futurama: The Complete Collection 1999-2009|The Complete Collection 1999-2009]]'' and on the cover for [[Volume 7]]. He is also featured on one of the discs of Volume 7.<br />
*Zoidberg's E-mail is: zoidberg@freemail.web.{{citation needed}}<br />
*As the show progresses, Zoidberg's apparent utility becomes less obvious, and the Planet Express staff shun his presence from one instance to another.<br />
*It has been mentioned several times that the Planet Express crew openly abuses him. In ''[[Bender's Big Score]]'', he yelled that Fry was the only crew member who had never struck him. Also, several times he has done something wrong and exclaimed "Don't hit me!"<br />
*As with all Decapodians, Zoidberg's mannerisms, speech, and personality are representative of dry East Coast humor readily seen in Jewish communities.<br />
*He claims to have lost his medical degree in a volcano. This, however, was an excuse for not having one to give to Cubert.<br />
*In earlier [[Episode Listing|episodes]] he is animated with teeth, but in later episodes he is drawn without. His mouth frills are prehensile and can move independently, although most of the time they remain loose.<br />
*Is apparently his own medical corporation, as described on the door to his office.<br />
*Zoidberg has a top fin or crest on his head that appears at times of emotional duress, such as "[[Why Must I Be a Crustacean in Love?]]" and ''Bender's Big Score''. It seems to be linked to his species' equivalent to testosterone, as it appears to be linked to both aggression and arousal, as shown in ''[[Bender's Game]]'' and "[[Attack of the Killer App]]". Also, the fin appears when he remembers a forgotten event. The crest, referred to by Amy as "cockateiling", has been shown on one occasion to occur just before a traumatic event, allowing Zoidberg to predict danger, but not with enough notice to do anything about it. <br />
*His greatest fantasy is to be a grandmother ("Subjugated yet honored!").<br />
*Hermes from the earliest episodes seems to harbor a bitter hatred toward Zoidberg, never explained or given a rationale. This starts in "[[Hell Is Other Robots]]", when Hermes states someone (in fact Bender was addicted to it) has been using a lot of electricity, then blames Zoidberg who exclaims "MEEE?" Hermes later removes the office's salt-water cooler to save money, prompting Zoidberg to blurt out, "This is a witch-hunt!"<br />
[[File:Zoidberg office.jpg|right|thumb|Zoidberg in his office with Fry.{{er|6ACV18}}]]<br />
*An [[Zoidberg (Cornwood)|alternate version]] of him as a blob-like creature appears in ''Bender's Game'', although he begins as an innocent Dungeon Monster.<br />
*In the [http://www.homestarrunner.com/ween08.html Halloween 2008] cartoon of [http://homestarrunner.com Homestar Runner], the Poopsmith is dressed as Zoidberg. Also, if you click him at the end of the toon, the King of Town uses the phrase "[[Good news, everyone]]."<br />
*Apparently likes [[Barbados Slim]] (Although he says he likes a lot of people, possibly a catchphrase).<br />
*He has been shown to cough up colorful beads after eating copious amounts of dirt, which can be sold to make money. This is only seen in the episode "[[Bendin' in the Wind]]".<br />
[[File:Zoidberg promo.png|right|thumb|Zoidberg reading a book entitled ''Diseases of the Claw and Egg Sac''.]]<br />
*His [[birthday]] is the day after Amy's.{{er|3ACV14}}<br />
*His claws and exoskeleton are incredibly strong and resilient. His claws can cut through human flesh, bone, and even some metals while his exoskeleton is impervious to knives and swords.<br />
*He is first mentioned to be desperately poor in the episode "[[Put Your Head on My Shoulders]]".<br />
*In "[[Insane in the Mainframe]]", it is said he started working in Planet Express in [[2992]], though in "[[Möbius Dick]]", he is seen working since the start, around [[2961]].<br />
**Possible that he is fired and rehired to avoid paying out benefits.<br />
***The Professor's senilty and Hermes' not caring may also be the explanation.<br />
*Grows brown hair that usually turns white immediately in cases of extreme fear (as shown in "Möbius Dick").<br />
*He is noted by Farnsworth to be a "doctor for aliens", often gives mistaken diagnoses on Fry and Bender that may apply to other species, and has demonstrated knowledge of alien physiology (as shown in "[[The Tip of the Zoidberg]]"). This may suggest he qualified as a doctor on Decapod 10. He was also described as a "medical doctor" by the [[Contrabulous Choosematron]], implying he may be qualified in some form as a doctor. <br />
* Interesting, the only thing about being a doctor Zoidberg seems to know about is reattaching limbs, as he does this several times.{{er|2ACV05|2ACV07|BBS|space=no}}<br />
*He has shown infrequent romantic interest in human men, thought this probably means nothing as he is repeatedly unable to differentiate between human genders.<br />
*In ''Bender's Big Score'' he was crowned Prince of Bageria by the [[Scammer Aliens|Scammers]]. Although it's obivously a scam, Zoidberg still fell for it.<br />
*Zoidberg appears to think humans have multiple mouths, dorsal fins. He also can't tell humans apart from robots and males from females. He also thinks that food is digested in the heart.<br />
*Several of Zoidberg's internal organs are either redundant or vestigial. In "[[Roswell that Ends Well]]", he is vivisected by scientists who know nothing of his physiology and leaves one of his hearts behind.<br />
*He may be a fan of Scooby-Doo, as he said "Well gang, it looks like we have another mystery on our hands.", a catchphrase of Fred.{{er|3ACV06}}<br />
*According to the [[Contrabulous Choosematron]], Zoidberg is "delicious with butter and lemon",{{er|7ACV02}} though this could be a gag since those two do work well with lobster.<br />
*He can harmonize with himself, possibly with two sets of vocal cords.<br />
*He is one of three current crew members of Planet Express that have worked for Mom in some capacity, the other two being Farnsworth and Hermes.<br />
*He is unable to swim very well, and does a "doggie paddle" instead of a proper stroke.<br />
*He frequently claims that various member of the crew (Hermes, Bender, etc.) are his "best friend", despite having absolutely no evidence to suggest it's true (or any evidence that any of them consider him a 'friend' at all).<br />
*He may be [[religion|Catholic]], most likely [[Space Catholicism|Space Catholic]], since he has made the sign of the cross{{er|6ACV22}} and prayed to [[God]].{{er|7ACV12}}<br />

'''Zoidberg''': Alright, I'm coming.</poem><br />
<poem>'''Zoidberg''': The female Leela's problem is purely medical, soon she will lay her eggs and they will hatch and all will be well.</poem><br />
<poem>'''Zoidberg''': Oh, the hypochondriac's back! So what is it this time?<br />
'''Fry''': Well, my lead pipe hurts a little.<br />
'''Zoidberg''': That's normal. Next patient!</poem><br />
<poem>'''Zoidberg''': Fry, it's been years since medical school, so remind me. Disemboweling in your species: fatal, or non-fatal?</poem><br />

<poem>'''Fry''': Like Dr. Zoidberg: he's a weird monster who smells like he eats garbage, and does.<br />

=== Catchphrases and running jokes ===<br />
[[File:Zoidberg 7ACV19.png|thumb|225px|Zoidberg as [[Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth|the berry burglar]]'s monster.{{er|7ACV19}}]]<br />
*(At inappropriate times) Hello.<br />
*Sometimes he will (with a grin) exclaim "What an honor!"{{er|3ACV19}}<br />
*Excellent, excellent!<br />
*(Famous person)? I love that guy!<br />
*Woop woop woop woop!{{iiw}} (This sound effect is based on sound effects made by The Three Stooges.)<br />
*Hooray!<br />
*Dibs on...! or alternative forms of calling dibs on something. Zoidberg usually comes late to Bender (for Leela's [[iPod]] in ''[[Into the Wild Green Yonder]]'' and the ship's shotgun in "[[Parasites Lost]]") or [[Amy]] (for Leela's maid of honor in ''[[Bender's Big Score]]'')<br />
*(Depressed, after being insulted, ignored, or one-upped) Awwww...<br />
<br />
Also, he is usually shown to be highly unintelligent when it comes to being a doctor, such as thinking that Amy is the father of Leela's [[popplers|poppler]], that humans have multiple mouths, that Fry is a robot, and that humans digest food in their hearts. More so, he often mistakes the human penis for other objects, especially that of Hermes. The closest he has ever been to showing competence in the field of human medical science was in "[[Parasites Lost]]", but only because he saw it in a commercial.<br />

The article is relatively thorough but can still be improved.

{{about|the real person|the ''[[Futurama]]'' [[character]]|Matt Groening's head}}<br />
<br />
'''Matt Groening''' (pronounced "Grey-ning") is a cartoonist, screenwriter and producer most famous for being the creator of ''[[The Simpsons]]'' and ''[[Futurama]]'' (the latter together with [[David X. Cohen]]).<br />
<br />
== Biography ==<br />
<br />
=== Early career (1977 - 1985) ===<br />
Groening got his start writing a comic strip called ''{{w|Life in Hell}}'' in [[1977]]. In 1980, the strip was picked up by ''The Los Angeles Reader'', where Matt worked delivering papers and doing minor editing. In 1982, the editor gave Matt his own column, supposedly rock and roll themed, but rarely actually ''about'' rock and roll. In an attempt to add more music news to the column, Matt often wrote reviews of bands he made up, only to apologize the next week, admitting the lie. Although each time, he swore he'd never do it again, he usually did. Finally, he was asked to write a humour column instead.<br />
<br />
=== The Simpsons ===<br />
<br />
In 1985, {{s|James L. Brooks}} contacted Matt about adapting ''Life in Hell'' for television, creating "bumpers" for ''{{w|The Tracey Ullman Show}}''.

{{about|the real person|the ''[[Futurama]]'' [[character]]|Matt Groening's head}}<br />
<br />
'''Matt Groening''' (pronounced "Grey-ning") is a cartoonist, screenwriter and producer most famous for being the creator of ''[[The Simpsons]]'' and ''[[Futurama]]'' (the latter together with [[David X. Cohen]]).<br />
<br />
== Biography ==<br />
<br />
=== Early career (1977 - 1985) ===<br />
Groening got his start writing a comic strip called ''{{w|Life in Hell}}'' in [[1977]]. In 1980, the strip was picked up by ''The Los Angeles Reader'', where Matt worked delivering papers and doing minor editing. In 1982, the editor gave Matt his own column, supposedly rock and roll themed, but rarely actually ''about'' rock and roll. In an attempt to add more music news to the column, Matt often wrote reviews of bands he made up, only to apologize the next week, admitting the lie.

{{redirects|Farnsworth|other uses|Farnsworth (disambiguation)}}<br />
<br />
'''σομε ρανδομ νερδ...''' is an aged, eccentric, yet accomplished inventor, founder and owner of [[Planet Express]] and an honorary [[Globetrotter]]. He is crotchety, absent-minded and sometimes brilliant, most well-known for his work in [[Sport-Utility Robot|30th century robotics]]. In [[2999]], he was the last known relative of [[Philip J. Fry]]. Later, Professor Farnsworth discovered that he had fathered a son, as well as the [[Cubert|clone]] that he had kept hidden. In addition, he also serves as a tenured professor at [[Mars University (place)|Mars University]] teaching the Mathematics of Quantum Neutrino Fields. Farnsworth is an inventor of both useful and impractical things, some of which are extremely dangerous, such as his [[Doomsday devices]].<br />
<br />
Personality-wise, he varies from callous disregard to sentimental affection. He has no objection to sending his crew on missions which may eventually kill them, and has sent previous crews to their deaths before. (At times, he even seems eager to send crews on life-threatening missions.) Farnsworth is the oldest living member of the [[Academy of Inventors]], where he often competes with his arch nemesis, [[Dr. Ogden Wernstrom]].<br />
<br />
== Personality οφ νερδ ==<br />
Hubert Farnsworth is a νερδ, though how extreme this tendency is varies depending on how writers feel best suits the episode. Farnsworth's name comes from {{w|Philo Farnsworth}}, who invented the television. In addition, his first name, Hubert, may come from [[Eric Kaplan]]'s former professor, {{w|Hubert Dreyfus}}. The only thing his name has in common with the name of Philip J. Fry is the unsettled "J." as their middle initial, but this may just be a common joke [[Matt Groening]] sets for his characters.<br />
<br />
Though Professor Farnsworth is a genius, he is also very senile and sometimes forgets things that had happened only moments earlier. He also has a habit of saying "[[Good news, everyone]]", which more often than not means bad news. He is known for following up his statements with completely contradictory statements, such as [[The Sting#Quotes|his definition]] of [[Space Honey]] from "[[The Sting]]". Hubert also often appears indifferent to the welfare of his crew, often sending them on dangerous missions which could get them killed, though it's highly unlikely that he does this intentionally. He could also sometimes have periods of maniacal laughter. However Farnsworth isn't actually a bad person and appears to share some level of friendship with the other members of Planet Express. He also cares about his clone, Cubert, treating him as though he were his biological son.<br />
<br />
Farnsworth also enjoys public nudity, and may have been convicted. His urge to undress becomes much greater around [[Xmas]].<br />
<br />
One of the most frequent recurring gags in the show is that Farnsworth says/acts something but immediately the truth was that his intentions were the opposite compared to how it seemed. One example is in That Darn Katz! where Farnsworth complains that he is trying to run a meeting while the Planet Express Crew try to pet Professor Katz's cat then he states that means he should be the one petting the kitty.<br />
<br />
== Biography ==<br />
=== Early Life ===<br />
[[File:YoungFarnsworth.png|right|thumb]]<br />
Hubert J. Farnsworth was born on {{date|9 April}}, {{year|2841}} in a prison &ndash; although claimed until {{year|3001}} that it was actually 2851 &ndash; in the nerdiest slum of [[New New York]], [[Hell's Laboratory]]. At age 8, he learned to read, albeit while still in diapers.<br />
<br />
Hubert enjoyed his teenage years as a nerd with an affection for role-playing games. After 14 years of graduate school, Farnsworth became a scientist and designed such things as [[fast cars]], [[trendy night spots]] and [[beautiful women]], all out of his one-room apartment. Evidence suggests that he may also have been a hippie and a disco boy, possibly during graduate school. In [[7ACV10|The Near Death-Wish]], it is revealed that Hubert spent 25 years in a mental institution at the behest of [[Farnsworth's parents|his parents]].<br />
<br />
=== Career path ===<br />
By [[2900]] Farnsworth had taken a teaching position at [[Mars University (place)|Mars University]] where his most promising student was an up and coming young science undergrad<!--around 20yrs old, probably undergrad then--> named [[Dr. Ogden Wernstrom|Ogden Wernstrom]]. Sadly, the two had a falling out over a pop-quiz score which lead to Wernstrom's hundred year quest for revenge {{et|1ACV11}}. While retaining a role at the university, Hubert assisted [[Unit 47]] in curing the posy infestation {{et|6ACV04}} and was eventually hired at [[Mom's Friendly Robot Company]], staying there for the next fifty years. During this time his inventiveness lead to the creation of many new products and breakthrough technologies, such as the use of [[Dark Matter]] as fuel, the [[First Robot Capable of Qualifying for a Boat Loan|first robot capable of qualifying for a boat loan]] {{et|2ACV10}} and a [[Sport-Utility Robot|sport-utility robot]], the design of which would become the basis of all robots running in the early 31st century {{et|4ACV08}}. It was during this time he also began an [[Mom-Farnsworth relationship|on-again, off-again relationship]] with [[Mom]] {{et|2ACV14}}, the owner of the company, who was having a similar relationship with Wernstrom. By the end of this period, Mom had fallen pregnant with [[Igner|their child]], a secret she would keep from him for many years ([[Bender's Game|BG]]). While on a mission for Mom in [[2927]] on [[Triton]], Farnsworth contracted [[Yetiism]] and was only cured in [[3011]] in the [[Planet Express headquarters]] {{et|6ACV18}} by Dr Zoidberg.<br />
<br />
=== Planet Express ===<br />
After numerous tries with Mom, and with a need for money to fund his research, he founded [[Planet Express]], an interstellar delivery company, on 2961. He hired his friend of 34 years, [[Dr. John A. Zoidberg]] as the company's staff doctor. [[Hermes Conrad]] was hired as the company's bureaucrat some time later. In {{year|2998}}, [[Amy Wong]] entered the company as an engineering intern, but has since remained in the company for several years. Also in his employ is Scruffy, the company janitor who lives in the basement of Planet Express.<br />
<br />
Farnsworth has had numerous crews, whom he frequently sends to their doom. As a result many have died horribly or gone missing; the first crew hired were swallowed by a [[Four-dimensional space whale]]. Shortly after one such instance, late on the {{date|31 December|text=31st of December}} 2999 {{et|1ACV01}}, he learned that he was not the last surviving member of his family. His long lost and far removed uncle, [[Philip J. Fry]], had just been defrosted. Fry, [[Turanga Leela]] and [[Bender Bending Rodríguez]] were hired early the next morning and have been his longest surviving crew, who despite 12 years in the company remain alive.<br />
<br />
Farnsworth doesn't always just send his crew on simple delivery missions, but has sent them on charity missions as well as highly controversial missions. Even when his crew and company is unrelated or unsuited to the task, he isn't shy to send them along anyway.<br />
<br />
=== Legacy ===<br />
[[File:A Clone of My Own.jpg|right|thumb]]<br />
As a member of the [[Academy of Inventors]], the Professor has created [[#Creations|many things]]. Often these don't live up to his expectations and are ridiculed by his fellow inventors. Occasionally, however, they can help save the day; the [[Smell-O-Scope]] for instance was laughed at by colleagues and Wernstrom had his revenge by giving it a poor grade, shortly afterward it detected a [[giant ball of garbage]] in space that was on a collision course with [[New New York]]. After the Planet Express crew averted the crisis, Wernstrom once more announced a thirst for revenge.<br />
<br />
After his 150th birthday party, Hubert realised that he had no one to continue his work when he is gone. After days hidden in the lab, he emerged announcing that the clone he'd been growing the past twelve years would be his heir. Unfortunately, [[Cubert Farnsworth|Cubert]] did not want to follow in his footsteps. Farnsworth finally decided that his life was over, and revealed his actual age, 160, the age at which [[Sunset Squad Robot]]s would come and take him away to the [[Near Death Star]]. Soon after a rescue by his crew, Cubert finally decided to carry on with Farnsworth's research.<br />
<br />
=== Corporate Takeover ===<br />
After a brief reunion with Mom on [[Mother's Day (holiday)|Mother's Day]] of the previous year, 3002 saw Farnsworth's company taken over twice. On the first occasion, Cubert and Hermes' son [[Dwight Conrad|Dwight]] expanded their paper route to consume Planet Express. Soon after this takeover, [[Awesome Express]] fell apart due to poor management. On the second occasion, a shareholder meeting resulted in a [[That Guy|mysterious stranger]] taking over as CEO from Farnsworth. This person's running of the company was more successful, despite no deliveries being made during this time. Inevitably the company dropped back to its original poor stock price after the new CEO's death and Farnsworth's reinstatement. Planet Express was also taken over by The Scammers because Farnsworth unwittingly signed a document transferring ownership of Planet Express to them, thinking it was a form to accept the money from a Spanish lottery.<br />
<br />
=== Old Problems ===<br />
When a heatwave hits and the usual method to counteract [[global warming]] fail, the Professor is forced to admit that all modern robots are descended from his designs, which produce lots of pollution. The scientists at the conference plan to destroy the robots is soon thwarted and Hubert received a medal for saving [[Earth|the planet]] and its robots. About a week later after his staff decided that he had become too old, they took him to [[The Bubbling Geezer]] a visit that resulted in everyone becoming younger. The eventual resolution of this situation took them to the [[Fountain of Aging]], where the waters made him "even older" than he had been.<br />
<br />
=== Dark Matters ===<br />
[[File:FarnsworthIgner.png|right|thumb]]<br />
Over the years, Farnsworth's feud with Wernstrom continued to grow, and when an [[anomaly]] forms a short distance from the Earth the pair compete in [[Deathball]] to decide who will investigate. After Farnsworth's investigation proved unsuccessful the pair found themselves united for the first time since the pop quiz as they collaborated in research together, protested and shared a prison cell. But their new found friendship fell apart once more following an inter-universe relationship with [[Yivo]].<br />
<br />
When Mom faked a dark matter shortage in [[3008]] in order to increase the price of dark matter worldwide, Farnsworth finally told the tale of how he discovered it, and decided to end it all, so that scientists could spend their time on developing cleaner fuels, such as [[Whale Oil]]. Farnsworth managed to enter Mom's dark matter mine in Alaska, which turned out to be a [[Nibblonian]] farm, where Mom had kept Nibblonians imprisoned for years to produce dark matter. However, with the help of his crew and his long lost son Igner, Farnsworth managed to bring the crystals close enough together to render dark matter useless. After converting to whale oil and receiving a few bribes for scientific endorsements, he joined the rest of the crew on a journey into a wormhole. Although most of the crew were killed as the ship crashed into Earth in early [[3010]], he survives and brings them [[Rebirth|back to life]].<br />
<br />
=== Awards ===<br />
Professor Farnsworth has been given the following awards.<br />
*The [[Academy of Inventors]] award of [[3000]] {{et|1ACV08}}.<br />
*One Fields Medal ([[The Beast with a Billion Backs|TBWABB]]).<br />
*The [[Polluting Medal of Pollution]] {{et|4ACV08}}.<br />
<br />
== Relationships ==<br />
Farnsworth has at on at least 3 occasions gone back to [[Farnsworth-Mom relationship|his major love]], [[Mom]]. At around age 90, he worked for [[Mom's Friendly Robot Company]], where he designed robots for the company as well as toys, such as [[Q. T. McWhiskers]], but Mom's suggestion of turning the toy into a giant made Farnsworth leave her, because she simply didn't understand him and from then on [[Mom-Farnsworth conflict|conflict grew between them]].<br />
<br />
He would later return to Mom's company to work on creating actual robots, but back then, robots were stiff moving and not very efficient, however, when he sacrificed fuel efficiency, he succeeded, unfortunately, this robot design also caused [[global warming]]. Why he left Mom this time remains unsettled, but it may be because he once realised she was evil.<br />
<br />
On a third occasion, Farnsworth was once again at the company with Mom, where he discovered the secret of [[Dark Matter]], around the time where [[Walt, Larry and Igner|Mom's sons]] were born. But when he found out she had left him for [[Dr. Ogden Wernstrom]], he left once again.<br />
<br />
While his relationship with Mom has certainly been his largest, it has not been his only one. During a brief period of regaining the appearance of youth using stem cells from [[GeneWorks, S.K.G.]], he found a [[April|girl willing to date him]], although she also turned out to have used her tax rebate for a belly ring to make her appear thinner. There was also a brief fling with [[Hattie]] while they were on the ''[[Titanic]]''. However since then, Hattie seems to hold a strong hatred towards him; accusing him of being a "cat hater".<br />
<br />
In the episode "[[Proposition Infinity]]", it is shown that the Professor had a 40 year long relationship with a woman whom he met before [[Mom]]. This woman cheated on the Professor with a robot which caused the Professor's hatred towards [[Robosexuality|robossexual]] couples. It was also later revealed that that woman was herself a robot, and her name was [[Unit 47]].<br />
<br />
A creepy utilization of his body occurred in "[[The Prisoner of Benda]]", when he trades bodies with Amy. Amy then proceeds to trade bodies with Leela, causing Fry to himself trade bodies with Dr. Zoidberg. Leela used Farnsworth's body to prove that her relationship with Fry is partially physical. At dinner, Leela (in Farnsworth's Body) is disgusted by Fry (in Zoidberg's body), and vice-versa. When Leela-Farnsworth tells Fry-Zoidberg to prove his love, Fry-Zoidberg passionately kisses Leela-Farnsworth. This eventually leads to Leela-Farnsworth having Intercourse with Fry-Zoidberg. this marks the first known time he physically slept with a male. Mentally, however, Leela was the one who slept with Fry-Zoidberg.<br />

=== Trivia ===<br />
[[File:Professor's eyes.JPG|right|thumb|Professor Farnsworth's eyes]]<br />
[[File:Farnsworth's Reading Glasses.jpg|right|thumb|Professor Farnsworth's reading glasses]]<br />
*He was named Farnsworth in honor of [[Philo Farnsworth]], the inventor of modern television, which was unveiled to America at the same World's Fair as {{w|Futurama (New York World's Fair)|the ''Futurama'' exhibit}} that the show is named for, in [[1939]]. Additionally, the name ''Hubert'' roughly translates as ''bright mind'' in {{w|Proto-Germanic language|old Germanic}}.<br />
*There are only two episodes of the show in which the Professor does not appear: "[[The Why of Fry]]" and "[[Where No Fan Has Gone Before]]" (which are consecutive).<br />
*The Professor's eyes have never been shown to the audience in the main television series, even when his glasses are removed. So far, the only time they have been seen is in the comic book story, "[[Downsized!]]", but it is unknown if the reveal was authorized by [[Matt Groening]].<br />
*He has the same blood type as [[Amy Wong]]. He has stated that is one of the reasons why he likes "keeping her around" ([[The Series Has Landed|1ACV02]]).<br />
*For {{es|6ACV26}}, he was possibly part of those [[Characters who swap voices]]<br />
*Farnsworth is drawn with a gut which resembles that of Bart Simpson but, every time he lifts his shirt, he is shown to be underweight. <br />
*His bank account number is 299792458, which is the [[speed of light]] in meters per second.<br />
*Became a [[Great Wizard Greyfarn|wizard]] (quite possibly a parody of {{w|Gandalf}}) in ''[[Bender's Game]]''.<br />
*A running gag with the writers is to drop hints in the show that the professor is a cannibal of sorts.<br />
*Also known as "the Catman," due to his ability to land on his feet after falling great distances. However, prior to "[[Bender's Game]]", it had either been so long, or his memory had become so poor, that he himself forgot why they called him the Catman.<br />
*Has a "Thug Life" tattoo on his back.<br />
*His driving position is up against the windscreen of the ship, a parody of the stereotypes of elderly drivers.<br />
*As seen in flashbacks, the Professor had red hair when he was younger, just like Fry. Additionally, some of these flashbacks give him the same hairstyle as his distant ancestor.<br />
*At the start of the series, Farnsworth's voice sounded like a much older, slightly pitched-down version of Fry's voice. As time went on, it became more distinct, partly due to concerns by the creators that viewers with poor eyesight would find it hard to distinguish between the two relatives.<br />
*He is probably the oldest living human on [[Earth]], excluding the [[heads in jars]] and people who were [[cryogenic]]ally frozen, because of his escape from the [[Near Death Star]] {{et|2ACV10}}, although his [[time travel]]ing would make him, chronologically, much, much older.<br />
*The Professor is assumed to be the descendant of [[Yancy Fry Jr.]] and his wife. However, in the [[Storyboard:Space Pilot 3000#Scenes 71-87|storyboard]] for "[[Space Pilot 3000]]", the Professor is suggested to be descended from [[Fry's sister]] and a presumed brother-in-law named [[Eddie Farnsworth]]. Both Fry's sister and Eddie Farnsworth were later cut from the [[Futurama|the show]] altogether. <br />
*In an episode of {{w|Phineas & Ferb}}, a character's full name is given as Hubert Farnsworth.<br />
*As revealed by an offhand comment in "[[Fry Am the Egg Man]]", Farnsworth appears to be a Catholic, or perhaps a [[Space Catholicism|Space Catholic]], though he is quite possibly a [[Satan|devil]] worshiper, as revealed in "[[Calculon 2.0]]" (and implied in other episodes).<br />
** In [[Simpsorama]] Farnsworth states that he is an atheist. <br />
*The Professor sometimes pronounces 'w' as 'hw'; that is, he pronounces the 'h' in words like 'what'. The odd thing about this is that he also adds this 'h' sound in to words that don't have it (orthographically or historically in its pronunciation). For example, in [[Bender's Game]], when he asks Fry to grab the waistband of his underwear, he adds the 'h' sound in with the 'w' in 'waist'. Stranger still, his use of the 'w' v. 'hw' sounds is in {{w|free variation}}, or he uses one sometimes, then the other, in the same words, with no pattern. This inconsistency appears to be an oversight on [[Billy West]]'s part.<br />
<br />
=== Sayings ===<br />
====Catchphrase====<br />
Originally, the professor's catchphrase was going to be "...though [[I am already in my pajamas]]." This was only used in [[Space Pilot 3000|the first]] and [[The Series Has Landed|second]] episodes.<br />
<br/> The professor's basic catchphrase is "[[Good news, everyone]]!" The phrase is used so frequently that it was already possible to joke about it in the [[My Three Suns|seventh episode]].<br /><br />
<br />
He also occasionally refers to "[[Zombie Jesus]]" either by saying "Sweet Zombie Jesus" or "Holy Zombie Jesus".<br />
<br />
When he is spoken to or asked a question, he also commonly says "Eh-wha?" This is used often to emphasize his senility and hearing loss. <br />
<br />
Occasionally, he will say something along the lines of "What in ________ happened?!" For instance, "What in Sega Genesis happened to you?!" or "What in [[Satan]]'s glorious name is going on here?!"<br />
<br />
Another "catchphrase" used by the Professor is "Oh My..."<br />
<br />
Farnsworth also likes to use the phrase "Fuff" as a way of saying "Forget it" or "It was nothing" or "Baloney".<br />
<br />
Furthermore, he likes to dismiss other people's opinions by saying "Quiet, you!", often to people who have just actually contributed something useful to a discussion.<br />
<br />
The last catchphrase used by the Professor is "Wernstrom!"<br />

<br />
'''Θρολολολ ενραγεδ''' is the largest ''[[Futurama]]'' knowledge bank on the [[internet|web]]. It started on {{date|30 January}}, [[2006]], as a side project of [[User:Buddy13|'Buddy13']].<br />
<br />
The Infosphere still garners the attention of the [[fandom|fan base of ''Futurama'']] as the best source for trivial, trivia and encyclop&aelig;dic information about ''Futurama''.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
[[File:The Infosphere frontpage.png|225px|thumb|left|The second skin of the Infosphere]]<br />
The Infosphere originally started as a minor side project by 'Buddy13' as a place for him to store anything he knew about ''Futurama'', after finding that many ''Futurama'' fansites overspecialized or had gaps in their information. He decided on the MediaWiki platform, because it was at the time one of the simple solutions offered by DreamHost, the Infosphere's former host.<br />
<br />
The Infosphere grew in popularity, and generally appealed to more and more of regular members from [[PEEL]], who would contribute to the wiki. The increase in popularity led to a change in URL as the then-current URL (futurama.overt-ops.com) was difficult to remember for the average visitor.<br />
<br />
In late [[2007]], the site saw a layout change and standard change, which introduces infoboxes to the wiki as well as minor design changes for the wiki to keep it more stylish.<br />
<br />
=== Server problems ===<br />
During [[2008]], DreamHost took down the Infosphere because it was using too much CPU time on their servers, which were shared with others. The site was quickly moved to a short array of servers as a result. The Infosphere was moved back to DreamHost after an attempt was made at optimization, but it still wasn't enough, as DreamHost could not provide the required CPU usage the site needed.<br />
<br />
The Infosphere was temporarily placed on a server at the [[Germany|German]] Hexonet, hosted on a dedicated machine. Later that {{cat|year}}, the site moved to a virtual machine, hosted from the same data centre.<br />
<br />
=== Wikia's offers ===<br />
The only competition to the Infosphere has remained Wikia's [http://futurama.wikia.com/wiki/Futurama_Wiki Futurama Wiki]. Wikia has at least twice proposed a partnership between themselves and the Infosphere. One of the arguments used by advocates of the Wikia supporters are better servers and lack of competition.<br />
<br />
However, the editors of the Infosphere have denied a possibility of a partnership with Wikia's Futurama Wiki, because it would involve too many restrictions for the wiki as it is. A key issue with the deal has been for the Infosphere editors the fact that Wikia is a for-profit organisation, which issues ads on its wikis, something the Infosphere would not like to see on its own wiki. The Wikia supporters on the other hand, suggested that the ads would encourage people to sign up and become a contributor, as the ads disappear when you log in.<br />
<br />
The Infosphere editors also moved that, despite their occasional server issues, they were doing rather well and were not in need of Wikia's servers. However, they did specify that the lack of competition would be nice, but also moved that the content of Wikia's wiki was too weak for the quality standard of the Infosphere, and sharing that content would best be avoided. Not to mention that the Infosphere's founder, Buddy13, still harbors resentment to the fact that the Wikia wiki made a habit of stealing their images directly from the Infosphere. It is unknown whether this practice continues.<br />
<br />
=== Stability ===<br />
<br />
Since late [[2009]], early [[2010]], the Infosphere has remained in relative stability as its efforts to deliver a comprehensive guide to all things ''Futurama'' continue. However, the Infosphere has grown far more prominent in [[I:ITP|the press]] as a result of ''Futurama''{{'}}s [[second run|return]] and its increased popularity. In fact, its prominence has gained the attention of [[writers and directors|writers]] of ''Futurama'' itself for reference purposes.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://twitter.com/#!/erog23/status/62892012986306560 |title=answer 2 question: we use the infosphere at least once a day in writers room. |author=[[Eric Rogers|Rogers, Eric]] |date=2011-04-26 |accessdate=2011-05-06 |site=[[Twitter]]}}</ref><br />
<br />
== Additional information ==<br />
<br />
=== Trivia ===<br />
<br />
* In "[[The Why of Fry]]", {{Nibbler}} says that the [[brain spawn|Brain Spawn]] have been constructing the Infosphere for a thousand years, which suggests that the Infosphere was created around [[2004]]. This wiki was created in 2006.<br />
