* While the ''{{Futurama}}'' episode "Jurassic Bark" is famous for its DownerEnding, it also contained Bender's CrowningMomentOfAwesome, where he ''dove into a lava pit'', and got out with Fry's dog. He said it best himself:

** Fry gets one in how much he goes through to get his buddy back. He doesn't give up hope even when faced with climbing mount Everest alone to reach monks that may or may not actually grant him permission to use a telescope that may or may not find Bender. If Leela didn't talk him out of it he probably would have stayed there as long as it took.

*** But then, it's made completely awesome again ''because'' he chose to dive back in after the dog after chucking it into the lava - he did it just because he realized how much his actions upset Fry and was overcame his jealousy to fix his mistake.
** More awesome than the thing itself is Bender's entrance. Instead of coming back up through the pool of lava he dove into, he rips triumphantly out of the Earth with magma pouring down his body, shouting the epic line above.

* In the episode "Time Keeps Slippin'", after finding out that they need a doomsday device to save the day, the Professor replies "Doomsday device? Ah, now the ball's in Farnsworth's court!" and proceeds to press a button, revealing that he has SEVERAL DOOMSDAY DEVICES!

* "The Sting" is better known for being a MindScrew, but let's not forget that Bender, Fry and Leela managed to successfully complete the mission that killed at least two of the professor's previous crews. Fry interposing for Leela was particularly epic.
