- How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back
This was basically impossible to pick just 5 episodes.
I also think Bender's Big Score is fantastic, but that's a film or I have to pick one episode from it... which is complicated.
I also ended up only looking at the original broadcast episodes simply because the list was already too long.
This is one of the hardest lists I’ve ever made. I changed my answers many times before settling.
The Day the Earth Stood Stupid
Godfellas
Jurassic Bark
The Deep South
Amazon Women in the Mood
Hell is other robots
A head in the polls
Problem with poplers
War is the H word
One of the serious ones, either Devil's Hands, The sting, or the one that doesn't get named.

I’m afraid I can’t remember too many episode titles off the top of my head, but you’ve definitely picked two of my favorites in How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back and The Problem with Popplers. I can’t remember the plots of your other listings, but I probably love them too.
I’d have to add on The Devil’s Hands are Idle Playthings. Magnificent episode with one of the cleverest titles I can think of.
Let's see if this helps. Going off of memory, but here's what they are about.
-
The crew land on a random planet and are starving. They find these giant piles/pits of creatures and discover they taste good. They are Omicronian babies. They end up as a popular food, called Popplers, for humans. Lrrr takes over Earth and demands to eat Leela in retribution because she at the first Poppler.
-
Pretty sure this is the one where aliens steal Fry's nose thinking it's an aphrodisiac. Lrrr and his wife Ndnd are having marital struggles and Lrrr buys Fry's nose from some dealer. The rest of the episode is spent with the crew creating a romantic date for the two so fry gets his nose back. This episode also has Big Foot in it and Lrrr protecting Big Foot from the park ranger is ultimately what brings the romantic spark back.
-
Can't remember.
-
Pretty sure this is the episode where they caused random time skips to happen and they spend the episode trying to fix it. It's got the Globetrotters in it and everyone became an honorary member except for Bender because he wasn't in the room. This episode also includes Fry getting married to Leela in a time skip, then immediately getting divorced in the next. At the end of the episode we learn Fry can pilot the ship and the gravity pump as he got Leela to marry his by spelling out a message to her with.... stars? IDK, some space thing.
-
This is the episode where Hermes gets demoted and leaves Planet Express. New person takes over and starts a fling with Fry because he's so sloppy, the opposite of her. Bender finds out and the new person takes Bender's memory and sends it to the Central Beaurocracy. They go there to get his memory back. They find out it went into the master in pile, a mountain of items, and Beaurocrat #1 flies in to see what's going on. He gives the crew 4 minutes to sort the entire master in pile and find it else they'll be arrested(?). Hermes comes in, sorts it, finds dirt on the new person and we get the famous line "You are technically correct. The best kind of correct" and then he flies off.
I really hope I'm right on those.
3, crimes of the hot, is the one where all the robots fart to move the planet away from the sun and stop global warming, right?
