Didn't get to watch it until after work. As far as the episode went, I enjoyed it. So far IMO better than the previous season. I do agree with your analysis on the subject matter but still got some laughs out of those moments that are in the background or random elements of humor (Zoidberg's main moment in this episode). Sorry trying not to be too vague while keeping from giving away spoilers.

Under the seat.

According to that post's comments, our community/lemmy also comes up early in searches on Yahoo, Bing, and Duckduckgo! Wooooo!

Was that the Star Trek Wars or the Star Wars Trek?

After reading over https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Intellect_devourer I think you very well could be onto something.

Highlights from that site that follow this notion:

• They were capable of magically consuming a humanoid creature's mind and memories from a distance of up to 10 feet (3 meters), provided that creature had a brain and succumbed to its psychic assault. If so, the victim's mentality was deteriorated. In the worst case, the victim's intellectual capacity was completely erased, leaving them dazed or stunned and ultimately incapacitated.

  • What happened to Earth beings except for Fry

• To aid in hunting, an intellect devourer could detect the minds of sentient creatures up to a distance of 300 feet (91 meters), determining both presence and position. -In the infosphere they were not able to detect Fry's brainwaves due to his "nasty in the past-y" affecting his brain.

• Despite their exposed brains, an intellect devourer was protected by a crusty covering or clear membrane and was resistant to physical harm.

  • Fry was only able to hurt them by thinking

While they are supposed to have legs and claws, there is a illithid talent that they could fly.

Otherwise, the rest of the lore seems exclusive from the Futurama brains.

Knowing the intellect and geekiness of the writers, I agree that there is possible connection between the two. For the sake of creative licencing, I am sure if it was their intention to make them intellect devourers, they made the changes they did for the show. Thanks for sharing 😊.

For no raisin.

Yes!. Although I was hoping to see the era of "when mankind was enslaved by giraffes"

I didn't notice anything until you mentioned something. I don't think it's intrusive. I always appreciate your posts/memes (even on the other communities). Keep doing you!

Like Fry. Like Fry.

That was the one part of the episode I didn't care for. I assumed they put it in to either reminde folks of how Kif got pregnant or introduce the story to those who missed that episode. Regardless, it could have been done in a manner that was more creatively written.

I thought this episode was very enjoyable. I loved the kids' personalities and connections with all their family members. The scene with the Grand-Midwife with the emergence of the spawn was my favorite along with the tardigrades. I am happy to see some of the non-main characters in the spotlight, although I know many folks may disagree. Overall am happy with the quality of this season. It is difficult to compare to other seasons as each one is a representation of their time and the amount of time that occurred between each season.

I changed it to English and Undetermined. Let me know how that works for you
