Re: Welcome to the Sheep of Tomorrow...Futurama Sheep

I'm pleased with my current standing. Not being familar with the minutia of Futurama the way I am with other shows, I found the questions really difficult and was going to skip playing altogether. The only reason I submitted was because I was jazzed to give "Phil Hendrie" as an answer.

Well I'm getting my shiny metal ass kicked.

But hey, I made a comeback in Sheepamania 2, maybe I can pull one off here.

Re: Welcome to the Sheep of Tomorrow...Futurama Sheep

I wanted to pick the fingerlongerer or the smell-o-scope but i figured some kind of death clock would be more sheepy. i was wrong

Scruffy +6

Scruffy challenge.

Scruffy wasnt always with Planet Express. He originally worked as a beastie boys roadie and at Le Spa.
He wasnt shown working at Planet Express until halfway through season 2, i think.

He was also Employee of the Year at Planet Express in 2995, so his employment with the company pre-dates the show.

He's been there for most of the series - but I'm willing to consider your challenge.

What do other players think; should Scruffy qualify as working temporarily at Planet Express?

In the meantime,



11. S: “Cool, an alien! Has your race taken over the Earth?” A number of episodes have explored Fry and Leela's relationship. Which one is the best?

Re: Welcome to the Sheep of Tomorrow...Futurama Sheep

This episode showed a key point in their relationship. Did anyone give it as an answer?

Spoiler:


One player did; they got no points from it, though.

I'm glad to see people aren't being penalized for not knowing the names of episodes. I think my answer for this was, "The one where Fry plays the horn that makes pictures".

It would hardly have been fair to do that. It was no real problem figuring out the names, though there was one answer that stumped me at first (it wasn't one of yours).
