Doctor Zoidberg

Doctor Zoidberg is one of the oldest friends of Professor Farnsworth and has worked as a doctor in Planet Express for a long time, despite his utter lack of actual medical expertise, understanding of the human body and common sense. Other Planet Express employees seem to see him as a nuisance and more than a little disdain, because of his incompetence and rather childish personality.

He belongs to the lobster-like Decapodian species, having left his species' homeworld (Decapod 10), attracted by the freedom allowed in Earth's society, although he has yet to understand many of the subtler aspects of human behaviour. Persistent foolish investments have kept him very short of money and in the edge of starvation, making him willing to devour anything even remotely edible. He is particularly fond of anchovies, a fish driven to extinction when his species first visited Earth.
