What is your favorite "Futurama" couple? Amy and Kif, Hermes and Barbara, Fry and Morgan Proctor, etc? Fry and Leela would probably win hands down, but they are never actually "a couple" in the entire series (although I expect they will be in the movie).

My favorite is Mom and Professor. It's just too demented for words!

Fiction has to be plausible. Reality is under no such constraint.

Not true. Prime universe Fry and Leela get married in "Time Keeps on Slippin'" - of course you don't see much of it due to the time slips and they get divorced. Also, alternate universe Fry and Leela in "The Farnsworth Parabox" are married. So, I'll go with them.

Yay, more Futurama fans!

I say Fry and Leela. The Kif and Amy thing annoys me, TBH. Mom and Fansworth is great, but in a twisted, and kinda gross, way.

But worth reminding, the tragical Fry and Leela romance throughout the series ends kinda solid in the last episode, where Fry has a pact with the Robot Devil so he can play the Holophonor. Leela shows a lot of sympathy for Fry regardless of his lack of skills, and the finale is quite heartwarming (I hope this is the correct english expression here)

Yeah, you can tell I'm a sucker for true romance.

Philip J Fry and Turanga Leela, definitely. I've always identified with Fry as a fish out of water, and I had a two-eyed version of Leela once, but she got away.

Chumps!

Bender and Bender is the only couple Futurama needs, except possibly Bender and God in Godfellas - and that's only because one of them's Bender...

Zap Brannigan and anything female.

You mean, anything that appears to be female.

That's what I was going for, I just couldn't get it to come out right.

Yeah I like Fry and Leela too. That last episode was epic!

I am also quite partial to Bender and Anglene and Lrrr and Ndnd are quite good together too.

Yes, the Philip and Turanga finale was a tear jerker, but I can't say fairer than the ying/yang of Bender Bending Rodriguez and his brother Flexo Rodriguez.... middle name anyone?

Oh yes, and Joey Mousepad and Clamps.......

Gillian, you are right, but isn't it always the way that the good, meek, caring people never quite seem to get what they deserve.... at least in fiction.

BTW - I'm a horrible, cocky, mouthy "benderlike" character, so I'm not speaking form a position of knowledge.

I kinda think Amy is a catch. She's cute, she's rich, and she seems to honestly care for Kiff. Okay, she slept with Fry which seriously calls her judgement into question (), but other than that I think a guy could do a whole lot worse.

She's annoying and dumb. To me, these are far more important than "rich" and "cute." Yes, she genuinely cares for Kif, but she's also hugely selfish. She's not at all bright. She's whiny, especially when she doesn't get her own way. In short, she reminds me of various people with whom I went to high school--and various coworkers who didn't change at all after high school!

I guess I could put up with a lot to be with someone who truly loves me.

I'd prefer to be liked by someone interesting & intelligent rather than be loved by cute & dumb. But then I'd settle for a lads night out drinking with Bender so what do I know?! Fry & Leela Btw.

Oh!
How about the couple of Zap and himself, since he doesn't love anyone more than himself?

But for a "serious" answer, it would have to be Fry and Leela. LucasVB, you're not the only one who loves sad romances.
