Character

Bendee Boo

Bendee Boo in Futurama (1999), played by John DiMaggio.

A bending unit built for construction work, he spends most of his time avoiding it. Introduced folding the arm off a suicide booth in the far future of New New York, he's foul-mouthed, self-interested, and immediately drawn to Fry as a partner in crime. He drinks, smokes, gambles, and lies without hesitation, and seems to enjoy all of it.

John DiMaggio's gravelly, unbothered delivery turns pure selfishness into something genuinely funny rather than grating — he sounds bored by his own bad behavior, which is the joke. The writing never asks you to like him first; it just lets his loyalty leak out sideways, underneath the bragging, so you end up fond of him almost against your will.
