About The Artwork

Philip J. Fry: [Leading the charge for the Neanderthals] Kill all modern humans! Bender: Hey, these guys are all right. Bender: Third place? This is the greatest injustice Germany has ever committed! Turanga Leela: Oktoberfest is a celebration of how much mankind has evolved. So be on your best behavior. Philip J. Fry: No chance! You all can act like Jersey Shore socialites, but my dear pal Bender will party with me. Right, buddy? Bender: Whoa, whoa! I love partying as much as the next fellow, but this is Oktoberfest. Good day to you, sir. Philip J. Fry: Ach du freakin' lieber! 
 Philip J. Fry: Bring on the beer, and the scantily-clad barmaids, and the more beer! Zapp Brannigan: Look at those primitive Neanderthals down there. Loading their silly catapult with... what is that, Kif? [a saber-tooth cat flies through the window and attacks Zapp] Kif Kroker: It appears to be a saber-tooth cat, sir. Philip J. Fry: I didn't know the ship had a mammoth detector. Bender: You're drunk, Fry. This is the elephant detector. I just set it to big and woolly. Bender: A sausage competition, eh? Sounds like fun on a bun. [Sees sign that reads "Fun on a Bun"] Bender: [Crumples sign and throws it away] Shut up! I said it first! Zapp Brannigan: Well, well. We meet again, Leela, only this time, I'm the one judging the sausage.

He's the one who sucks."), Billy West (Skeets), Maurice LaMarche ("The same thing we do every night, Pinky."), Tress MacNeille (Hello Nurse), and Phil LaMarr ("Oh man, I shot Marvin in the face.")

 Cultural References: * The episode is mainly set in a futuristic Oktoberfest, which has evolved into a highbrow event. * The futuristic Oktoberfest is located in the Neander Valley which is located in the German state North Rhine-Westphalia. Although the real Oktoberfest is held in Munich, Bavaria. * Leela's visit to the memory eraser Annie's Forgettery parodies the premise of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, where the character Clementine (Kate Winslet) visits a clinic called Lacuna, Inc., to erase the memories of her relationship with Jim Carrey's character Joel. * The episode includes two original songs by Denton, Texas-based nuclear polka band Brave Combo plus a cover version of "The Chicken Dance".[2][3] * Sight gag at end celebration feast, referring to the closing credits of The Flintstones with large order of 'Ribs' served including the table tipping over. * Bender receives a message via Raven in a reference to Game of Thrones with Scruffy playing the part of a Maester of the Citadel. * Two weeks after the show was aired, a scientific debate was raised about whether the early homo-sapiens have mated with Neanderthals or not, due to recent discoveries. * When amnesiac Fry & Leela are fighting each other on the Planet Express Ship, Fry's neanderthal garb and fighting style are that of San's first appearance in Princess Mononoke. Fry and Leela's not knowing each other at that moment, their underlying attraction to each other, and engaging each other in a fight, are additional themes inspired from Princess Mononoke's protagonist and hero. * Fry leads the Neanderthal assault while riding on a mammoth, referencing Hannibal's invasion of Rome with war-elephants. Futurama is an American animated science fiction sitcom created by Matt Groening that aired on Fox from March 28, 1999, to August 10, 2003, and on Comedy Central from March 23, 2008, to September 4, 2013. The series follows the adventures of the professional slacker Philip J. Fry, who is cryogenically preserved for 1000 years and is revived in the 31st century. Fry finds work at an interplanetary delivery company, working alongside the one-eyed Leela and robot Bender. The series was envisioned by Groening in the mid-1990s while working on The Simpsons; he brought David X. Cohen aboard to develop storylines and characters to pitch the show to Fox. Following its initial cancelation by Fox, Futurama began airing reruns on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim programming block, which lasted from 2003 to 2007 and again since 2021. It was revived that year as four direct-to-video films, the last of which was released in early 2009. Comedy Centralentered into an agreement with 20th Century Fox Television to syndicate the existing episodes and air the films as 16 new, half-hour episodes, constituting a fifth season In June 2009, Comedy Central picked up the show for 26 new half-hour episodes, which began airing in 2010 and 2011. The show was renewed for a final, seventh season, with the first half airing in 2012 and the second in 2013. An audio-only episode featuring the original cast members was released in 2017 as an episode of The Nerdist Podcast. Futurama received critical acclaim throughout its run and was nominated for 17 Annie Awards, winning seven, and 12 Emmy Awards, winning six. It was nominated four times for a Writers Guild of America Award, winning for the episodes "Godfellas" and "The Prisoner of Benda". It was nominated for a Nebula Award and received Environmental Media Awards for the episodes "The Problem with Popplers" and "The Futurama Holiday Spectacular". Merchandise includes a tie-in comic book series, video games, calendars, clothes and figurines. In 2013, TV Guide ranked Futurama one of the top 60 Greatest TV Cartoons of All Time.

I’m (I am?) a self-taught artist, originally from the north suburbs of Chicago (also known as John Hughes' America). Born in 1984, I started painting in 2017 and began to take it somewhat seriously in 2019. I currently reside in rural Montana and live a secluded life with my three dogs - Pebbles (a.k.a. Jaws, Brandy, Fang), Bam Bam (a.k.a. Scrat, Dinki-Di, Trash Panda, Dug), and Mystique (a.k.a. Lady), and five cats - Burglekutt (a.k.a. Ghostmouse Makah), Vohnkar! (a.k.a. Storm Shadow, Grogu), Falkor (a.k.a. Moro, The Mummy's Kryptonite, Wendigo, BFC), Nibbler (a.k.a. Cobblepot), and Meegosh (a.k.a. Lenny). Part of the preface to the 'Complete Works of Emily Dickinson helps sum me up as a person and an artist: "The verses of Emily Dickinson belong emphatically to what Emerson long since called ‘the Poetry of the Portfolio,’ something produced absolutely without the thought of publication, and solely by way of expression of the writer's own mind. Such verse must inevitably forfeit whatever advantage lies in the discipline of public criticism and the enforced conformity to accepted ways. On the other hand, it may often gain something through the habit of freedom and unconventional utterance of daring thoughts. In the case of the present author, there was no choice in the matter; she must write thus, or not at all. A recluse by temperament and habit, literally spending years without settling her foot beyond the doorstep, and many more years during which her walks were strictly limited to her father's grounds, she habitually concealed her mind, like her person, from all but a few friends; and it was with great difficulty that she was persuaded to print during her lifetime, three or four poems. Yet she wrote verses in great abundance; and though brought curiosity indifferent to all conventional rules, had yet a rigorous literary standard of her own, and often altered a word many times to suit an ear which had its own tenacious fastidiousness." -Thomas Wentworth Higginson "Not bad... you say this is your first lesson?" "Yes, but my father was an *art collector*, so…"
