Space Pilot 3000 - S1-E1

Trivia: If you watch closely, after Fry is leaning on the chair just after the countdown to ten reaches zero and he loses his balance, they cut to a close-up of the chair's legs falling over. You can see Nibbler's shadow cast on the wall in front of him. This was however retroactively added to the first season DVD. In the original airing of the pilot on TV Nibbler's shadow was not present.

Suggested correction: This has proven to be in the original airing.

Suggested correction: The shadow was present in the screener. Matt Groening confirmed in the DVD commentary it was always there. Nibbler was brought in in episode 4.

Answer: The initial number is 0101100101 = 357. When reflected in a mirror, however, it reads 1010011010 = 666 (the number of the Beast). It is a parody of The Shining, where the words Red Rum are seen as the word murder in the mirror.
