The intro cards for Futurama have always been one of my favorite parts of the show because people always talk about the old Simpson’s couch gag but this is just pure gold… I mean-
It goes from everything from
and then they made fun of how much everyone reacted to the the infamous ‘dead dog episode’ that I cried about…
This is what I tried to explain to US platforms like Patreon when they suspended my account for having a nude statue as the background image: I live in Europe, I can go and see a nude statue within a 5 minutes walk. Children can see them, they’re not in some 18+ container. I will never understand those policies.
have you ever wanted to have punkitt explain to you TF2 lore? what about watching punkitt explain tf2 lore to a bunch of coworkers who have no clue what the fuck this game is. it was POWERPOINT NIGHT BABY and i had like two hours so i did everything i could from memory and im pretty satisfied with how it turned out.

Billy West is autistic with ADHD? Huh. The more you know.

From the post and comments:
“Futurama has been a show that probably showed me just how much talent is involved in voice acting. Two of my favorite tidbits that really helped me come to this conclusion were:
1: When we first see Morbo, Maurice LeMarche’s voice was edited to sound that way but after he heard the edit he made the effect with his own voice and they never edited it in the studio after that.
2: Billy West is so excellent at changing voices that if there was scene where (for example) Fry, Zoidberg and the Professer were all talking he would read it all in order just like a conversation and just switch voices between lines when typically it would be done by reading all the lines from one character first and then doing the next one and so on
What are some of your favorite Futurama facts?? Does not have to be voice related.”
“In Love’s Labors Lost in Space Billy West did the distorted sound for the voice of M-5438 without editing. They kept stopping the session because they thought there was something wrong with the mics until they realized it was just Billy.”
“Billy West voiced the two halves of Glurmo from the Slurm Factory without any kind of electronic modification. They demonstrated it in one of the commentaries- they had West just ad lib something in ½Glurmo’s voice. I’m impressed.”
“I honestly love Katy Segal’s voice acting. She doesn’t do anything to actually change her voice but when I hear it, I don’t see Peggy or Katie I completely see Leela. She has this very sensual voice that sounds youthful and in command at the same time. She’s just a damn good actress.
My favorite is in The Late Phillip J Fry when she kicks the TV with her typical hi-ya and ends it in a typical Leela cry.”
