    Best line in Bender's Game: Is that a hobbit over there? No, that's a hobo and a rabbit, but they're making a hobbit.

    Justin Timberlake sells a lot more records than Caruso. That must make him a better singer, too.

    Billy Caruso? I love that guy!

    Beast with a Billion Backs [billboard.com] was 12th and 6th on the charts for DVD sales according to Billboard.

    What an odd way of saying that it was 18th.

    Well actually, Beast with a Billion Backs sucked, but the rest were pretty damn good. I thought Bender's Game was completely back on form for Futurama.

    I second this emotion. :)
