      Hegseth has charm? I just assumed he was yet another nepo baby hire.

        (I think they are suggesting it is Hegseth that has less charm than Brannigan)

      The average public does not hear about the Kifs, they are too busy having to be productive to compensate.

        Kif isn’t a traitor though. Sure he’s cowardly and basically useless, but he’s got a good heart.

          Zap has destroyed multiple planets and sacrificed his men while Kif just watches. They blew up the DOOP headquarters and attacked the Neutral planet. Tell my wife I said “Hello.”

    “We couldn’t imagine Iran would close Hormuz”

    Yeah… I’m still trying to imagine if Branningan could be that stupid.

      Watching any episode with Brannigan in it will cure you of that delusion, because he absolutely would be stupid enough. A perfect fit for the Trump administration, as it were.

    Zapp took advantage of Leela’s moment of weakness, since a moment is all it takes with the zapper.

    Whereas hegseth paid a woman 50k to shut up about the time he raped her.

    So that’s a difference.

    The thing we were parodying actually exists again? Both Zapp Hegseth and Zapp Brannigan were drawn from the same material? It’s honestly so perfect it seems like it had to be planned.

    Zapp Hegseth it is.

      Fun fact: Zapp Brannigan’s design is based on a 60’s comic book character “Magnus: Robot Fighter”:
