Episode

Amy showed her obscene tattoo to the rest of the Planet Express crew after making a remark about the low definition TVs of the 20th century (1ACV06). We cannot see it clearly due to our primitive technology, but it appears to consist of two red figures, possibly Decapodians.

Additional Info

Trivia

  • Amy also seems to have talking tattoos (4ACV16) and moving tattoos (6ACV04).
  • It exists as a prank on the audience, poking fun at the dominant low-def televisions on which the episode was likely viewed at the time it aired. However, subsequent years saw the rapid rise of plasma and LCD high definition televisions, removing some of the humor from the joke for anyone watching on a high-def television.

Quotes

    Bender: Hey! Get a load of this pathetic 20th century TV!
    Fry: What's wrong with it?
    Bender: Well, aside from causing eye cancer, these things had a lousy low-definition picture.
    Amy: That's true. I bet, on a TV like this, you couldn't even make out my obscene tattoo. [Bender whistles.]
    Leela: That's cute.
