Another Futurama/Simpsons/Family Guy related poll.

My opinion:

MORBO DEVOURS THE PUNY HUMANS.

Tom Tucker, just for the constant barrage of insults between him and Diane.

Never seen Family Guy, but if it were between Brockman and Morbo, I goota go with Morbo.

Really, I just made this thread to say how awesome Morbo is (but then I forgot so I'll say it now). Everytime he's on screen I burst out laughing.

Best Futurama alien.

Brain Slugs are awesome too.

Kent Brockman, hands down.

Morbo rules and all (and Tom Tucker doesn't even compare), but Kent has been gold for over a decade. He is the epitome of the never-fail, happy, oblivious newscaster.

For example, when Mr. Burns is threatening to shut down Springfield's powere in "Last Exit to Springfield" (my number one episode of all time ), Kent Brockman replies with a nonchalant laugh, and a bright, "A chilling vision of things to come".

Other golden Brockman moments:

Kent Brockman: ...and the fluffy kitten played with that ball of string all through the night. On a lighter note, a Kwik-E-Mart clerk was brutally murdered last night.

------------

Kent Brockman: Scott, things aren't as happy as they used to be down here at the unemployment office. Joblessness is no longer just for Philosophy majors - useful people are starting to feel the pinch.

------------

Kent Brockman: Tonight a city weeps, as, for the first time ever, a hockey arena becomes the scene of violence following a concert by Spinal Tap.

------------

And easily one of Brockman's greatest spiels ever:

Kent Brockman: Ladies and gentlemen, er, we've just lost the picture, but,
uh, what we've seen speaks for itself. The Corvair spacecraft
has been taken over -- "conquered", if you will -- by a master
race of giant space ants. It's difficult to tell from this
vantage point whether they will consume the captive earth men
or merely enslave them. One thing is for certain, there is no
stopping them; the ants will soon be here.
And I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords. I'd like to
remind them that as a trusted TV personality, I can be helpful
in rounding up others to toil in their underground sugar
caves.



Which then of course makes way for the greatest sign ever:

Morbo: Morbo forgot how to read his teleprompter. He forgot how you say that letter that looks like a man with a hat.

Linda: It's a 't'. It goes 'tuh'.

Morbo: Hello, little man. I will destroy you!

Experts say the fake Pope can be identified by his high-top sneakers, and incredibly foul mouth

(my favourite Kent Brockman moment )

Morbo: "Thanks, human female. Puny Earthlings were shocked today to learn that a ball of garbage will destroy their pathetic city of New New York."
----------------------------------------

Linda: “All in all, this is one day Mittens the kitten won’t soon forget.”
Morbo: “Kittens give Morbo gas. In lighter news, the city of New New York is doomed. Blame rests with known human Professor Hubert Farnsworth and his tiny, inferior brain"
------------------------

Linda: "And so with two weeks left in the campaign, the question
on everyone's mind is, who will be the president of Earth? Jack Johnson or bitter rival John Jackson. Two terrific candidates, Morbo?"
Morbo: "All humans are vermin in the eyes of Morbo!"
--------------------------

Morbo: "Morbo will now introduce tonights candidates. Puny human number one, puny human number two and Morbo's good friend Richard Nixon."
Nixon: "Hello Morbo. How's the family?"
Morbo: "Belligerent and numerous."
-----------------------------------------

Linda [on TV]: With Halley's Comet out of ice, Earth is experiencing the devastating effects of sudden intense global warming.

Morbo [on TV]: Morbo is pleased but sticky. The scorching heat has melted the polar ice caps causing floods of biblical proportions.

....

Linda [on TV]: I'm sure those windmills will keep them cool.

Morbo [on TV] (shouting): Windmills do not work that way! [He turns to the camera.] Goodnight!
