The Professor does it with Mom!
Tweekums28 April 2012
Warning: Spoilers
Mother's day in the future isn't what it is today; it is the day that all robots show their appreciation to Mom; owner of Mom's Friendly Robot Company. She however hates it as it reminds her of the day that she fell out with her one true love... Hubert Farnsworth! Determined to make everybody else hate the day as much as she does she orders all of her robots to rebel and make her supreme overlord of Earth. This revolution doesn't just include conventional robots it includes household appliances and even a talking greetings card! Even her sons think she has gone too far so they approach the Professor so that he can seduce Mom and get the robots' remote control; the only problem is she keeps it in her bra!

While not a classic episode it still has plenty of laughs; Mom is hilarious in a repellent sort of way as are the scenes where she gets naked with the professor! Other highlights included the scene where we learnt just what she did with all the presents from the robots and Bender's greeting card which starts spouting Trotskyite propaganda when ordered to rebel.

The One With Mother's Day...

I really enjoy this episode. It's so funny. I love the fact that Mom monopolizes all of the robots, and then treats her own kids horribly, it's just so funny.

In this episode, it's Mother's Day, and everyone robot is celebrating the one and only, Mom. Everyone is running around, getting her presents, and getting ready to celebrate the big day. Only to have Mom control every robot on Earth, by changing their systems. And you know who the only person who can save the world, and get the robots back to normal, is? Professor Farnsworth.

Title Card: Larva-Tested, Pupa-Approved.

Best part of the episode: Bender getting presents for Mom.

Overall, I give this episode a 7 out of 10, which in my ratings book is: Great.

It's Mother's Day, actually Mom's day, you know the evil rich Mom from the season one. She's bored and feels like making all the machines rebel against humans (Bender included).

They start to destroy the planet Earth when Mom reveals she once had an affair with the professor. The crew plan for professor to seduce mom and stop all the machines with the remote she hides in her bra. But professor realizes he still has feelings for her, softened after having sex Mom decides to stop all the machines but also finds out this was all a plan at first.

It's unbelievably brilliant writing once again. I'm glad this show started when the Simpsons has gone downhill. 9.6/10.
