I'm convinced they missed out on verifying once and for all that the Ood = Dr. Zoidberg from Futurama. Because it's true, but TPTB are being so damn coy about it.

Though we did make the Matt Groening connection with the Homer Simpson!Ood. That made the Portland girl squee.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

That made me laugh. Forget Dickens' work being immortal, Homer Simpson's immortal. :D

Both the Ood and Dr. Zoidberg are, as any good D&D player knows, Illithids (aka Mind Flayers).

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

HA! I'm SURE that's where the Futurama nerds PTB got it from! They've gone on about D&D on the commentaries before, after all. :D

"So, what are you guys doing tonight? I'm up for whatever."

Because Ten and Donna's expressions say it all. *g*

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

I love their expressions - would fit a bunch of these quotes, I'm thinking. :D

Oh God - now I'm being harassed by a Futurama/DW crossover plot bunny. Ack! *hides from the bunny*

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

EXCELLENT. :D

Oh, man, I am so glad that I was not the only one yelling surrender your mysteries to Zoidberg!

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

I can't believe I missed that quote!! GAH!

To really rub it in, there's also "some day they'll watch, from down in the gutter they will, as King Zoidberg caresses their fancy box! "

I love him so much it's ridiculous.

That would have been perfect! :D

Can't choose. All too funny to decide. Futurama and Doctor Who work so darn well together that I'm surprised the Futurama staff didn't try to shove in more in-jokes.

...Now I'm wishing I had to skills to overdub all the Ood lines in this episode with Zoidberg ones. I wonder if the episode could still be coherant...

I know! "Leela" is a big one, but there could have been more.

O.M.G. I also wish I had those skills.

I don't watch Futurama (though I'm familar with the show) and didn't make the connexion (till now).

My first thought was always Cthulu...

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Had to look that up. Unless it's been on TV or movies, I'm pretty much sci-fi/fantasy illiterate.

So you're move tv-centric than I am. :)
