Whoever wrote "Sigourney Weaver is best known for narrating Planet Earth on the Discovery Channel" has apparently never seen the Alien movies, Ghostbusters, or any of the other landmark movies she's been in. (Too young?) Also, in an unrelated nitpick, the object that stops Bender as he's running appears to me to be a diode, not an "opposite charge" as claimed in this article. I only have the DVD version for reference, so maybe it really was a charge in the original broadcast, but I think more likely the claim here is wrong.
Bender sounds a lot like John Belushi's character Jake in The Blues Brothers when he's begging for his life. The quote is not the same but they sound very similiar when you hear it.
comparison:
Jake:[Falling to his knees before her] Oh please don't kill us. Please, please don't kill us. You know I love ya baby, I wouldn't leave ya. It wasn't my fault.
Bender: Uh, you don't need to kill us, Planet Express Ship ... because ... I love you. Oh, yeah, baby! I feel like doing stuff for you and stuff.
maybe it's just the way he talked to his "girlfriend" that reminded me of John Belushi in The Blues Brothers. -AC
What song is playing when Bender complains about the ship's choice of music? -- someone
Why does Bender seemed so disturbed when he realises Lovey Bears are made from real creatures? If you look closely at his face you can clearly see that his disturbed/upset. 203.53.167.180 08:44, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
Is the "Two gangster planets and a cowboy world" a reference to the Star Trek: TOS tendency to have entire worlds based around certain very specific cultural phenomena from Earth history? Mad2Physicist ( talk) 07:43, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
The plot has a very high parallel to a the first story "Magnetic Rose" in the 1995 anime movie

From the wikipage: "The space station is run by the deranged AI imprint of a lovelorn, jaded opera diva, who controls the station's functions, including its life support systems and (to more dramatic effect) its VR holography and supporting nanotechnical systems."
