I was wondering if "Shut up Zoidberg!" is said enough times by the characters to be considered a catchphrase. I can think of three examples ([[Bend Her]], [[Bender's Game]], and [[Möbius Dick]]), and there might be more. What does everyone think? The list already contains some rather obscure ones. - [[User:UnrealLegend|UnrealLegend]] ([[User talk:UnrealLegend|talk]]) 07:10, 27 December 2011 (CET) | I was wondering if "Shut up Zoidberg!" is said enough times by the characters to be considered a catchphrase.

It appears that damn near everything that a character says more than once is being listed on this page. I think there should be some kind of rule that decides what qualifies as a catchphrase. At least a quarter of these so-called "catchphrases" should be removed in my opinion. [[User:UnrealLegend|UnrealLegend]] ([[User talk:UnrealLegend|talk]]) 06:22, 7 March 2012 (CET) | |||

Shouldn't these catchphrases be in quotations? — Chris of the Futurama 2 [ discuss | contribute ]
- Hmm? --SvipTalk 23:06, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
- Like, "Hi-yah!" and "I am already in my pajamas" and "Bite my shiny metal ass" (the titles be in quotations).
— Chris of the Futurama 2 [ discuss | contribute ]- Seems unnecessary, Wikipedia doesn't: Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn. --SvipTalk 23:42, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Too much rubbish
I think that there's way too much crap on this list. It should be only the more commonly used ones. Things like Enos Fry's: "Well gadzooks!" are a bit too obscure in my opinion. - UnrealLegend 06:37, 1 September 2011 (CEST)
- It's still a catchphrase. Perhaps the article should be broken up into sections instead? --Sviptalk 14:00, 1 September 2011 (CEST)
Shut up, Zoidberg!
I was wondering if "Shut up Zoidberg!" is said enough times by the characters to be considered a catchphrase. I can think of three examples (Bend Her, Bender's Game, and Möbius Dick), and there might be more. What does everyone think? The list already contains some rather obscure ones. - UnrealLegend (talk) 07:10, 27 December 2011 (CET)
What makes a catchphrase a catchphrase?
It appears that damn near everything that a character says more than once is being listed on this page. I think there should be some kind of rule that decides what qualifies as a catchphrase. At least a quarter of these so-called "catchphrases" should be removed in my opinion. UnrealLegend (talk) 06:22, 7 March 2012 (CET)
