"Good news, everyone!" is Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth's catchphrase. His good news usually means a suicidal mission for the Planet Express crew. Very infrequently is the news actually good and once he even seems to realize that.
Occasionally, the Professor will make variances of the remark—such as muttering "Bad news, nobody" after almost being burnt to death.
