NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Mom (Futurama)

Mom is a fictional character and recurring antagonist on the animated series Futurama, voiced by Tress MacNeille. She is the bitter, ruthless, and 99.7% shareholder of Momcorp, the largest industrial conglomerate known to man, with subsidiaries ranging from Mom's Friendly Robot Company to Mom's Old-Fashioned Video Surveillance Unit. She is the richest person on Earth and maintains a public image of being a sweet, matronly figure through use of a fatsuit, a heart-shaped hairdo and talented acting, when in fact she is extremely thin, foul-mouthed, and malevolent. Her catchphrases usually involve her telling her sons to "cram/shove a _____ in it" whenever they try to talk, followed by a slap in the face. She even shows contempt for her appearances at charity events, on one occasion complaining that she's "off to some charity BS for knocked-up teenaged sluts". Squirrels in particular are something she threatens people with. Futurama is an Emmy Award-winning animated American sitcom created by creator of The Simpsons Matt Groening and developed by Groening and David X. Cohen for the Fox network. ...

Her impatience sometimes prompts her to publicly display her true personality, as on one occasion when a business rival dropped dead during takeover negotiations (Future Stock): "Pry out his fillings, feed him to the jackals and let's get on with the sale!"

Walt, Larry and Ignar

Mom is frequently accompanied by her three sons, Walt (Maurice LaMarche), Larry (David Herman) and Ignar (John DiMaggio). Like Mom's henchmen in Doctor Detroit, the sons wear grey double-breasted uniforms similar to those worn by chauffeurs or the Imperial Commander characters from Star Wars. They each own 0.1% of Momcorp. Their personalities and mildly violent interaction resemble those of the Three Stooges. Image File history File links Futurama_sons_of_Mom. ...

Mom maintains discipline by slapping her sons, sometimes all three with one swing. Walt, the tallest, is second in the hierarchy and sometimes slaps his brothers. Walt usually displays the most devious or malevolent tendencies of the three, and appears more intelligent than Larry or Ignar. His voice is virtually identical to another Maurice LaMarche character, The Brain, and thus is a deliberate imitative mix of Orson Welles and Vincent Price. Larry is less intelligent than Walt, but still more so than Ignar, usually catching onto any of Mom or Walt's plots with reasonable swiftness. He has the largest number of cameo and incidental appearances. Ignar is the least intelligent, sometimes even appearing mentally retarded, and gets all the worst jobs, including being forced to dress in women's underwear. Pinky and the Brain (sometimes abbreviated PatB or P&tB) are cartoon characters who have starred in the American animated television series Steven Spielberg Presents Animaniacs, Steven Spielberg Presents Pinky and the Brain, and Steven Spielberg Presents Pinky, Elmyra & the Brain. ...

Mental retardation (abbreviated as MR), is a term for a pattern of persistently slow learning of basic motor and language skills (milestones) during childhood, and a significantly below-normal intellectual capacity as an adult. ...

Thanks to an abusive mother and lack of a strong father figure, Larry and Ignar are both afraid of women, while Walt apparently suffers from an Oedipus Complex, having once said that he wants someday to marry a girl like Mom. They are all fiercely loyal to (and deeply afraid of) their mother, though they took action to stop her when she made all robots rebel in the episode Mother's Day, threatening to doom Earth. The Oedipus complex in Freudian psychoanalysis refers to a stage of psychosexual development in childhood where children of both sexes regard their father as an adversary and competitor for the exclusive love of their mother. ... Mothers Day is episode fourteen in season two of Futurama. ...

The identity and status of their father(s) is unknown and the subject of much fan speculation. Though Mom calls Professor Farnsworth "the only man I ever loved," their relationship ended 70 years before the main events of the series, while the sons only appear in their mid-forties at the eldest; indeed, neither the sons nor the Professor seem to consider the possibility of a relationship. Considering that Mom is more than 100 years old anyway, it is very possible they were adopted, or are the results of advanced fertility treatments, but again, this leaves their paternity unknown.
