Character

Jrrr

Jrrr in Futurama (1999), played by Lauren Tom.

Jrrr is a small, soft-spoken male from the matriarchal world of Amazonia, where men are kept docile and decorative while women rule and fight. When the towering warrior women select Amy Wong as a bride for their planet's menfolk, gentle, eager-to-please Jrrr is the mate she's given — sweet, submissive, and thrilled by the arrangement.

The joke is baked into the casting: Lauren Tom voices both Amy and her intended husband, so their scenes together are a small vocal magic trick as much as a gender-role gag. Jrrr's total lack of ego makes him funnier than a blustering suitor would be — he's pure comic contrast to Amazonia's fierce women, and Tom plays his eagerness completely straight.

Jrrr is a young Omicronian and is the son of Lrrr and Ndnd. He was discovered by Leela when she looked in a poppler can with one poppler left in and Jrrr opened his eyes and said "mama". Leela then informed everyone not to eat popplers.
