Tinny Tim Has Been Living Under Fry's Apartment In Futurama Season 11

In season 11 of Futurama, it was revealed that Tinny Tim, a beloved character, had been living underneath Fry's apartment. Despite his absence in recent seasons, Tinny Tim had made memorable appearances in 12 episodes since "Xmas Story" in season 2 and was even featured in the movie Bender's Big Score. However, viewers were left wondering about his whereabouts during the ten-year gap between season 10's "Assie Come Home" and season 11.

Tinny Tim Missed His Obvious Futurama Season 11 Return

While sweeping his apartment, a few specks of dust accidentally fall into a small hole, revealing the hidden existence of Tinny Tim. Despite living there for quite some time, it appears that neither Fry nor Bender are aware of his presence. The duration of Tinny Tim's residence beneath the Robot Arms Apartments complex remains uncertain, but it is reassuring to know that he continues to be a part of Futurama season 11.

While it's delightful to witness the return of Tinny Tim in the show, it is worth mentioning that he missed a golden opportunity to make a comeback in season 11 of Futurama. Throughout his numerous appearances, Tinny Tim has consistently been associated with the nefarious Robot Mafia, acting as their trusted ally. Considering this strong alliance, it was only natural to anticipate their joint presence in the eleventh season.

Surprising viewers, the Robot Mafia made an unexpected appearance in episode 3 of season 11 of Futurama, titled "How the West Was 1010001", without the presence of Tinny Tim. Considering the expectation for his return, it would have been logical for Tinny Tim to still be a member of the Robot Mafia if he were to make a comeback in season 11. However, contrary to this expectation, Tinny Tim made a solo appearance in episode 5 of the season, finally resolving the mystery of his absence over the past decade.
