Talk:Love's Labours Lost in Space/Archive 1

message: I know its a bit all over the place, but i'll fix it in a while. Raemie 14:41, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

message: The title of the episode is "Love's Labours Lost in Space" and not "Love's Labors Lost in Space". I checked the DVD case, gotfuturama.com(a trusted source), and also know that the title is supposed to be a parody of "Love's Labours Lost"(not "Labors"), the play by William Shakespeare, and "Lost in Space", the television series.--Icweiner 17:32, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Labours 

message: Commonwealth vs. American spelling argument aside, "Labo(u)rs" is definitely supposed to be plural, not singular. We need to move it back. -- Digital Watches! 19:39, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

*STRONG OPPOSE It's an AMERICAN based show from an AMERICAN company, the correct spelling is the American spelling. TJ Spyke 05:02, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Support It normally would matter, but I just checked my DVD set and they do indeed spell it with the extra U. TJ Spyke 20:51, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: "American" is irrelevant; the name is "Labour", not "Labor". EVula 15:09, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

text: That's what I've been saying. "Love's Labours Lost in Space" is the correct title. EVula 16:58, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Well, everyone seems to be in favor of renaming the article. Why hasn't the move been made yet? /Peter - Sweden, The European Union
:It has been renamed, perhaps you clicked on a redirect? Stardust8212 20:37, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: No, the article has not been renamed yet. Please visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love%27s_Labours_Lost_in_Space and check it out yourself. The old (British) spelling still remains. /Peter - Sweden, The European Union —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.172.143.21 (talk) 01:27, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Yes, "Labours" is the correct spelling as discussed above. Please check the DVD for the correct spelling. I stand by my original statement, the article was renamed to the correct title. Stardust8212 04:03, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

message: On the audio commentary for this episode in the DVD box sets, Matt Groening and David X. Cohen state clearly that Billy West was doing the voice he auditioned with and not trying to simply imitate Hartman, yet this article suggests the direct opposite.
:Statements in the article are taken from an interview with West which you can read here and quoted below. Phil Hartman was supposed to do that character, and I was imitating Phil Hartman. I knew Phil Hartman; when I came to work with him on some commercials and stuff out here in Hollywood, we both had this real fascination and love for these big, old-time dumb announcers. You know, the guys who have their balls in a wheelbarrow and think that every word is so precious that it's hard to give birth to it, like everything comes out in four syllables instead of one. Guys who think far and away that of everything else in this universe, he loves his voice. So that's what was going on with him. He's modeled after a couple of big dumb announcers I knew. Fry was named after Phil. Phillip Fry.
