Topics of Discussion
- Maurice claims not to be in the episode.
- The idea of this episode had been planned from before the show started.
- The connection to Roswell that Ends Well was not part of the original plan.
- The Professor is not in this episode or the next one, these are the only two episodes without him.
- Frank Welker's voice work.
- Bill Odenkirk was once at a restaurant where the bread had baby roaches crawling out of it, he only noticed after eating some.
- David's sister once ate in a pancake house where cockroaches had been caught in the dried syrup on a plate of syrup containers.
- There are lots of revisits to previous episodes in this episode.
- In earlier versions, the garbage chute only ejected garbage.
- The pillars read "yummy tummy" (which they actually don't)
- Episodes with higher sci-fi content need a lot more explanation, so they had to have Fry pushed and knocked around to keep the plot moving during explanations.
- Animators got paid to re animate the content from the pilot, though it was the same footage.
- Nibbler's shadow was in the pilot as part of the set up for this episode.
- They had the option to avoid time travel as Nibbler is just very old.
- There was going to be a long sequence of shots covering the 1000 year period Fry travels through.
Highlights / Quotes
- David X. Cohen: Dripping water is the locker room equivalent of a cricket.
- Maurice LaMarche: I am in this episode. 'Cause I play the brain.
Billy West: Do that voice, the creepy voice.
Maurice LaMarche: You mean The Brain?
Billy West: Yeah, the creepy voice.
Maurice LaMarche: "Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?" Oh, wrong Brain. - Maurice LaMarche: You know, for someone who isn't in this episode, I sure am in this episode a lot!
