==Biography==
'''Morbo''' the Annihillator is one of the [[Morbo's species|little known species of yellow-eyed aliens with gigantic heads]], the husband of [[Fawn]], and the father of her numerous belligerent offspring. He is also a widely known [[television]] presenter. Morbo started as a reporter in [[Los Angeles]], and now co-hosts several shows on [[Channel √2]], most prominently, [[Channel √2 News|the news]], with [[Linda van Schoonhoven]], with whom he maintains [[#Relationship with Linda|a relationship]] that is at least odd.
'''Morbo''' is co-anchor of the news on channel √2, as well as ''Good Morning Earth'', both with [[Linda]]. Morbo is a violent alien who is good friends with [[Richard Nixon's head]]. He is obsessed with taking over earth and mentions it almost every time we see him.


In addition, whatever the appearance of his torso, it is terrifying beyond imagination.
A violent [[List of alien species|alien]] and a good friend of [[Richard Nixon's head|President Richard Nixon]], he is also obsessed with taking over [[Earth]], mentioning it very frequently. Apparently, he is the scout of an impending [[:Category:Alien Invasions of Earth|alien invasion]], although it is possible that his evil is just an act used to increase ratings. Morbo always refers to himself in the third person, and his exposed torso is [[A Taste of Freedom|terrifying]] beyond imagination.

Morbo the Annihillator is one of the little known species of yellow-eyed aliens with gigantic heads, the husband of Fawn, and the father of her numerous belligerent offspring. He is also a widely known television presenter. Morbo started as a reporter in Los Angeles, and now co-hosts several shows on Channel √2, most prominently, the news, with Linda van Schoonhoven, with whom he maintains a relationship that is at least odd.

A violent alien and a good friend of President Richard Nixon, he is also obsessed with taking over Earth, mentioning it very frequently. Apparently, he is the scout of an impending alien invasion, although it is possible that his evil is just an act used to increase ratings. Morbo always refers to himself in the third person, and his exposed torso is terrifying beyond imagination.

Biography

Together with his wife, he attended the party in the Museum of Natural History following the victory of Earthicans to Spiderians,[4ACV16] the opera Fry wrote,[4ACV18] and the Violet Dwarf Star Implosion ceremomy.[ItWGY]

In 3010, Morbo the Annihillator was seen in a recorded video shown in the V-GINY,[6ACV02] announced the first known ad for the eyePhone,[6ACV03] covered the passing of Proposition ∞ and consequent legalization of robosexual marriage,[6ACV04] hosted the Who Dares to Be a Millionaire? game show,[6ACV05] and announced Doom at 11.[6ACV10] He also attended the Annual Astor Endowment Fundraiser.[6ACV12]

Shows

Relationship with Linda

He seems to treat Linda with contempt, the same way he would treat any other Human. However, a deleted scene of Into the Wild Green Yonder shows that he was visibly upset that she was no longer around, and violently shook the camera, which could imply that he cares for her to a degree.

Trivia

The cover for the re-issue of Volume Two.
  • Morbo is one of the few non-primary characters who appear in every film.
  • He is featured on the cover for the re-issue of Volume Two.
  • He has been known to sing karaoke. His skills appear rather sub-par, but no one seems to notice (or are too afraid of offending him in any way).
  • His name is on the Walk of Fame in Los Angeles.
  • In several episodes, Linda newscasts alone. According to the commentaries, this is because the writers leave him out of episodes that have a large focus on aliens.
  • His favorite film is Mars Attacks!.[US#059]
