Trivia
The title card "What happens in Cygnus X-1, stays in Cygnus X-1" is correct. Cygnus X-1 is a black hole from which nothing escapes.

Goofs
Amy, inside Leela's body, made Leela obese, but in the closing minutes of the episode, Leela's body is thin again without any explanation. The same for the professor's body, which Amy porked up.

Linda: Tonight at eleven...
Morbo: Dooooooom!

Great Body-Swapping Episode

One of the best science fiction ideas was body-swapping, so it would only be a matter of time before Futurama took a swing at it. Futurama's attempt at a body-swapping episode was very good. It starts with Amy and the Hubert Farnsworth switching bodies, leading to a bunch of stories all told well. Great episode of Futurama.
