Daniella

Daniella appears as one of the many incidental faces that populate New New York, part of the sprawling background hum of Futurama's world. She turns up briefly, does what the scene needs, and moves on, more texture than protagonist — a small thread in the show's dense tapestry of throwaway citizens.

Tress MacNeille is one of the great utility voices of animation, and even a minor figure like Daniella benefits from her ear for comic rhythm. The character works less as a personality to follow than as proof of how Futurama's world feels inhabited — full of odd little lives glimpsed just once.
