Well the Vulcan neck thing wouldn't work on a robot anyway, even canonically within star trek, would it? Certainly not a robot who is as different from humans as Bender, maybe it would have worked on one of the star trek robots like in the episode "I, Mudd" but Bender would definitely be way beyond that susceptibility.
Leonard Nimoy : Melllvar, you have to respect your actors. When I directed "Star Trek IV", I got a magnificent performance out of Bill because I respected him so much. William Shatner : And when I directed "Star Trek V", I got a magnificent performance out of me because I respected me so much. I love that bit so much.
He was born in the 70's so he likely grew up on re-runs airing through the 80's and after TNG came out which was when I got into star trek at around the age of 9 or 10
I think a bit less than that. He's probably in his late 20s at the start of Futurama, he's not fresh out of high school, right? Well that was 1999, so let's say he's 28 there, that would mean he was born just 2 years after the last episode.
I wonder why all the star trek references in Futurama were of the original series and not about The Next Generation which is strange considering fry was a young adult in 2000 which meant he would have seen TNG when it was being aired. The only Star Trek reference I can recall that wasn't from TOS was that brief cameo of Deep Space 9 station that got destroyed by the Professor.
Ironic, I began watching Star Trek The Original series a few days ago. (As for future suggestions, you could do a compilation of every "Previously on Futurama" from the movies.)
That's not irony, that's just a coïncidence. Irony is the OPPOSITE of an earlier happening or an expectation. Not sure exactly what would be an ironic equivalent of this. Maybe some cancellation of a Star Trek project pre-dating the posting of this video on the same day?
Well he is commenting on show that ended a decade ago, wich highlights a persona who's show ended decades ago, all played by a actor who already died; and he is just beginning to watch the series spoken of in this homage. I'm sure there's something ironic if you look hard enough

It's not the same if your reason is more economical than psychological

I could've sworn Leonard Nimoy was in more episodes than just the first and that Star Trek episode.
Thinking George Takei, maybe?
He is, just saw one today. He's here and there.
Maybe that one Simpsons episode.
The animated series with the most appearances of Leonard Nimoy is Futurama. That's pretty cool.
Perhaps you're thinking of his one man show about Vincent Van Spock...I mean Van Gogh, damn
His one man show about Van Gough was actually pretty good.
He did a few documentrys too!👍
You mean pretty Goghd
Who is Van Gough?
That was a joke. “Van Go” is the name of a furniture removal company
It was in 2208

it didnt work on the robots in i mudd. Spock was asked if there was a significance to the gesture.

I like the location, most of it is modeled after "Vazquez Rocks" where Captain Kirk fights the "Gorn" in the episode "Arena"

Great video, thanks
It's odd for Fry to be such a trekkie, he must have been born a decade after the show aired
You're never born too late to be a Trekkie.
I was born more than 2 decades later and I watched it when I was younger
He was born in the 70's so he likely grew up on re-runs airing through the 80's and after TNG came out which was when I got into star trek at around the age of 9 or 10
The show was in continuous reruns for decades. I remember trying to guess what episode it was by what the opening planet look like.
I think a bit less than that. He's probably in his late 20s at the start of Futurama, he's not fresh out of high school, right? Well that was 1999, so let's say he's 28 there, that would mean he was born just 2 years after the last episode.
"Let's see if this actually works."
"Hm!"
trying to hit a pressure point on a robot made out of metal with no nerves is crazy work
Personally I prefer Nimoy's take on the Hobbit.
The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins is a classic.

Because TOS is infinitely better than the pussies on TNG.
Because the writers grew up watching the orginal series
TNG has some claim to be a decent show, with "mainstream" viewers. TOS world is full-on nerddom.
Because everyone watched TOS for the half naked girls and Kirk's love adventures. Riker couldn't replace that.
