Character

Blazucchi

Blazucchi in Futurama (1999), played by Tress MacNeille.

Blazucchi turns up in the margins of New New York life, one of the many small, sharply-drawn faces Futurama fills its background with. Voiced with the same comic conviction the show gives its briefest walk-ons, the character exists mostly in passing — a flash of personality rather than a plotline.

Tress MacNeille is one of Futurama's great utility players, and characters like Blazucchi show why: she can make a single line of dialogue sound like a whole life, giving even the smallest role a distinct voice and comic shape. It's the show's gift for texture in miniature.

Blazucchi is a cygnoid who came to Earth with her husband, Blek, and other cygnoids to start a pizzeria, Family Bros. Pizza. She speaks with an Italian accent and they don't seem to know much about Earthican culture or humans; when buying chairs for the restaurant, they mistakenly believed that human knees bend upward.
