As a result, Leela has gotten plenty of episodes focused on her over the years.
For much ofFuturama, Leela has been defined in part by her activism on behalf of wild animals.
What makes it even more surprising is that the show recognizes it.
Amy brings up the same points, asking Leela why she isn’t getting involved.
Leela’s claims that she doesn’t care ring hollow for the character.
Still, it’s a surprising decision.
Futurama follows the exploits of Philip J. Fry, a pizza delivery boy from 1999 who is cryogenically frozen for 1000 years. Waking up in the year 3000, Fry befriends a cyclops named Leela and a roguish robot named Bender, and the three find employment with Planet Express, an interplanetary delivery service. Their work takes them to all corners of the universe, exploring space and the future as imagined by Matt Groening and the creators of The Simpsons.
It’s why I’m so shocked season 12 didn’t focus their animal-activist plot around her.
As one ofFuturama’s lead characters, it’s surprising to see her relegated to supporting roles.
Leela hasn’t been a main character in season 12 yet.
So far,it feels like season 12 is underserving Leela.
