replies: text: I removed it all together, as it is very trivial. A real world reason for his name, however, would not be trivial, and would be notable. CTJF83 12:44, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

message: Calling his brother Yancy, Jr. is incorrect since, as his father explains, several generations of Frys have been named Yancy. Tad Lincoln (talk) 13:58, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

message: If you are all forgeting or have never seen the episode, when they warp back in time, Bender is misunderstud as a U.F.O and Dr.Zpoidberg the alein, also Fry finds his "grandfather" and accidently, well, kills him. Afterwards when Fry goes to tell him grandma her fiance is dead, she takes her home and ends up sleeping with her... making him his own grandfather, and thats why he didnt disappear when his grandpa died... so there should be another reletive in my opinion. (p.s also he did have a dad and grandma dont forget them) --65.25.17.117 (talk) 14:21, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Generally we only want to include major relatives. Not ones that are only mentioned once or twice in the entire series. Plus, everyone has a dad (who is listed) and a grandma, and with no names, it's pretty generic to just say "grandma". CTJF83 17:10, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

message: I don't think Fry qualifies as the offspring of an incestuous relationship as A, he is the grandchild, and B, it's usually not the idea that you're the product of your own incestuous relationship. His father yes, but not him. Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie | Say Shalom! 18:21, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Ya, kinda stupid to list him as incest. CTJF83 18:25, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I already removed the category from the Professor and Cubert. That was just silly. Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie | Say Shalom! 18:29, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

message: Iirc, in the first episode, Fry said his old neighbourhood was by the Chrystler building (though he did have a house which you don't find in Midtown). Where did Brooklyn come from? Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie | Say Shalom! 18:23, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Good question, removed. CTJF83 18:26, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Wait, found it. In Luck of the Fryrish, Bender converts himself to a train of sorts and takes them to the Newkirk Ave. Subway stop, which is in Flatbush, Brooklyn. After they exit the station, he identifies that as his old neighbourhood. Remember though that both the Simpsons and Futurama don't show much concern for continuity, but this looks more definite.

replies: text: You're right on the continuity point. CTJF83 21:21, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I think you're both right. The house that's seen in Luck of the Fryish is seen in other episodes as well, including Game of Tones. Game of Tones also shows his _apartment_, which appears to be in a much more built-up area. So, I'm guessing that he grew up in Brooklyn, but his apartment as of 1999 was in Manhattan. 76.11.75.119 (talk) 04:42, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't his wikipedia say that he survived a heart attack, since they did after all find it on his wikipedia site in episode 16 of season 6??
:We don't list trivial events such as that, that are a throw away joke, and never mentioned again and don't affect anything. CTF83! 03:58, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

message: This is a question because how did he die. Was it when Fry got frozen or before when he delivered the pizza to the cryogenics lab? Kylonnie (talk) 21:27, 11 October 2016 (UTC)

message: It's never stated anywhere in any kind of canon that Fry's mother was named Sherri, so why is it listed as Sherri Fry as being his mother? It should just be Mrs. Fry since we do not know her ACTUAL name
