doctor Zoidberg

Επειδή δεν μπορώ να χαλάσω χατήρι στο adespoto..Ορίστε και ενα μίνι αφιέρωμα στο doctor Zoidberg!
Dr Zoidberg left his home planet to become a rich doctor but instead he became the Planet Express staff doctor. He went to high school where he made people laugh by having barnacles on his face. When it is time for mating season on his planet, Decapod 10, he becomes angry and violent as well as producing a large fin atop his head. But once his species has mated they die. His species have their small brains in their rump. He has a cousin Zoidfarb and an Uncle, Harold Zoid, who is a silent hologram star. He has a desire to be famous wether it's in the movies or the stand up comedy circuit.

Zoidberg is an old friend of Professor Farnsworth, and is the doctor at Planet Express. Although he claims expertise in human medicine, his knowledge of human anatomy and physiology is actually pitiful: he often mistakes Philip J. Fry for a woman or a robot (which he pronounces 'Rowbit', and is frequently the way he refers to Bender), and the chart of human anatomy on his office wall is upside-down. He is often confused by the “strange” features of humans, such as their skeletal system or lack of multiple mouths. He believes that humans have dorsal fins, that the heart is part of the digestive system. This may be because he has four hearts ( Roswell That Ends Well; in A Taste of Freedom he states he only has three hearts, but this may be as one of the hearts was removed in the Roswell episode ), that humans are susceptible to fin rot, and even that the human gonads are in the neck. When he operates on the staff, he makes spectacular mistakes, such as attaching Fry’s severed arm onto the shoulder of his other arm. In “Parasites Lost,” it is shown that Zoidberg has gleaned more information on anatomy through television commercials than through academic study. He is only directly questioned about his medical expertise in the episode “A Clone Of My Own”, in which he claims unconvincingly that he lost his medical degree in a volcano. However, he was able to save Fry's life by sewing his head onto Amy's body.

When Dr.Zoidberg was young he wanted to be a comedian but later decided to be a doctor. Despite showing a rather poor knowledge of humans and robots, there are suggestions that he might actually be a good doctor to his own race; he knows the gravity of the disease fin rot (presumably this is similar to a disease that present day fish can suffer from) and fin fungus, and believes that Leela's problems in dating are "purely medical. Soon she will drop her eggs and they will hatch and all will be well". However, this theory has not been proven in the series as of yet.

Bender

Ενα μίνι αφιερωμα στο Βender, το σουπερ ρομποτ!Πηγή του παρακάτω αποσπάσματος ειναι η wikipedia .

Bender Bending Rodríguez or simply Bender and nicknamed Bending Unit 22, is a fictional Robot character in the animated television series Futurama. He is voiced by actor John DiMaggio. In the series, Bender plays the role of a comic anti-hero, and is described by Turanga Leela as an "alcoholic, whore-mongering, chain-smoking gambler" as well as possessing a "swarthy Latin charm.". He is considered the show's breakout character[citation needed].
In the program, Bender is a robot built by the Mom's Friendly Robot Company at its plant in "America's heartland", Tijuana, Mexico, circa 2998. He is a Bending-Unit 22 (Originally created by Professor Hubert Farnsworth in his early years), serial number 2716057, chassis number 1729. As his name indicates, he was created for the task of bending metal girders. In fact, without his personality (which can be copied onto a 3.5 inch floppy disk or a futuristic device of identical appearance), his responses and actions are limited to saying "I am Bender. Please insert girder." He curses, fights, argues, smokes cigars, drinks, and gambles. A kleptomaniac, Bender steals other characters' wallets, watches and other valuables (sometimes even including their blood) at every opportunity. It is often stated that he has no emotions, referring instead to his dependence on his "superior/mighty robo-logic". The series provides contradictory information about Bender's origin. In several episodes, he is portrayed as having been assembled in a factory in his current form only a few years prior to the start of the series, as an ordinary machine would be. This is supported by the appearance of Flexo, another Bending-Unit 22 robot identical to Bender with the addition of a goatee. However, in "Teenage Mutant Leela's Hurdles" he is shown as going through growth and development like an animal and said to have "robo- or RNA", a DNA equivalent. In the DVD commentaries, David X. Cohen states that the viewer only sees a full-sized Bender emerge from the machine that built him, while what happened inside the machine was not revealed. Despite his Mexican origin, he speaks with a mild New Jersey accent, and demonstrates a poor ability to pronounce Spanish words or imitate Mexican-accented English in "Bender Should Not Be Allowed on TV". His full name is revealed to be Bender Bending Rodríguez in "The Luck of the Fryrish". This is also confirmed in "The Cyber House Rules" when the "Cookieville Minimum Security Orphanarium" is renamed the "Bender B. Rodríguez Orphanarium" in light of Bender's generous donation of twelve orphans and a government check for 1200 "wing wangs". Bender was educated at Bending University as disclosed in "Mars University".
