In Videos: Futurama's Bender as Cooking Bot

20090427-vids-bender.jpg

An oldie but goodie. Futurama's alcoholic robot, Bender, hopes to humiliate archrival chef Elzar by training with a Yoda-like mentor and then going on Iron Cook to challenge him. Training scenes include Bender peeling a potato à la Star Wars with a lightsaber and ingesting a can of whole peppercorns and then twisting his head around like a pepper mill. Video, after the jump.

I love Futurama!
I enjoy his pre-training cooking earlier in the episode, where he processes a chicken and personalizes each persons' meal.

Other bits in the series mention interesting foods like "Bender waffles" and "Ice cream soup". I wish they had described those better! :)

Yay! Futurama rocks - too bad more people didn't tune in. I love the episode about Slurm Energy Drink. Good times.

We watch Futurama every night :) Yes, I know, I'm a dork. But I do love it! There are a lot of food references - the ice cream soup is a good one! The sterno nicoise is also a favorite.

I'll never get used to the future. Caffeneited bacon? Baconated grapefruit? ADMIRAL CRUNCH?

I could go for some Glagnar's Human Rinds.

Futurama is not dorky! :D

Coffee, now in chunky chicken style!
Bachelor Chow!

I love Futurama!!! Have all the dvds! This is my favorite episode along with the Slurm factory one and the amazonian planet one with Bea Arthur RIP!

my favorite is the chairman's exaggerated japanese accent. charengeru bendaru!
