Futurama Grabs 2 WGA Noms!

Yesterday the 2011 nominations for the Writers Guild of America Awards were announced.
Forget your Emmys as this is the sort of prestigous award that really gives the show cred!
The show grabbed two nominations for Ken Keeler and Patric Verrone for 'The Prisoner of Benda' and 'Lrreconcilable Ndndifferences' respectively and will go up against 2 Simpsons episodes and 1 of 'Back at the Barnyard' for Nickelodeon.
The ceremony takes place February 5th.

I've got high hopes for 'Benda' due to Ken Keeler going so far as to write a full working mathematical formula as part of the episode.
Best of luck to both writers!!

I really think "The Late Phillip J. Fry" should have been nominated - that was by favorite episode of Futurama ever - outstanding writing!

I agree kaz. Great episode.

Why would they nominate those episodes? Spectacular writing is in The Late Phillip J. Fry and Lethal Inspection. Lrreconcilable Ndndifferences is boring '>_>
