Is he the big lobster?

Obviously, I haven't watched it much, but he was the one I found most funny when I did.

Yes, he's a hideous, penniless lobster doctor who speaks like a rabbi and harbours a desire to be a stand up comedian. Obviously.

If there's any one thing that's going to come between our writing partnership it's your hatred of Zoiberg, one of my all time favourite sitcom characters. What's not to love about a character so put upon by life that he ends up being subjugated by a parallel dimension version of himself (identical in every sense except for colour)?

He's rubbish! He's not funny!!!! He's not!!!

Her brother's the worst.

Nope, her ex-boyfriend is the worst

See, that's not an argument, that's a hissy fit.

With a "Wup wup wup wup" Zoidberg noise I trust...

Jesus, I hate it when he does that.

Of course, the BEST character in Futurama is Zap Brannigan. No question.

Zap and Bender Joint first.

Spare my your space age mumbo jumbo Ghengis Khan!

Zoidberg is brilliant. My second favourite Character in Futurama :D

Agreed, he's ace. Bender is the best regular character, though.

I literally have no idea why people like that character so much! It has me baffled, I just don't see it. Even his voice annoys me. Oh well.

I've never seen Twin Peaks. Though I have watched the film. Interesting, hey?

The Twin Peaks film was a letdown, rather like the Futurama ones have been. The main 2 seasons are far better. Check 'em out.
