Dr. Ben Beeler is a scientist holding a Ph.D, most likely in paleontology. He has shown an interest in fossilised dogs and giant alien spiders. Later, he is shown queuing up for the new eyePhone.
In August of 3010, he spoke at the World Bone Premiere of the Homo Farnsworth and can later be seen at the Comic-Con Intergalactic in the costume contest, dressed as the Robot Devil.
Additional Info
Trivia
- Beeler's name is very similar to that of Futurama writer Ken Keeler who, like Beeler, holds a PhD and can therefore be referred to as "Doctor". Keeler was originally called "Ben Beeler" by both his college roommate and his mother, and so the other writers named the character after him.[1]
- Beeler's colleague actually bears a stronger resemblance to Keeler.
