http://www.pajiba.com/seriously_random_lists/best-tv-robots.php

Of course, the debate will rage on forever but... Without the Robot from Lost in Space, this list is completely wrong :D

plus two of them are actually androids.

6. Small Wonder is the most perverse horror ever inflicted upon a television audience
Edited on Tue Sep-01-09 08:59 AM by Orrex
A life-sized interactive robot girl who lives in a little boy's closet?

What could possibly be less creepy? :scared:

9. I think Tom Servo should have shared the glory with his pals
Crow's a riot. Gypsy's a loveable goof. And Cambot? Where would MST3K be without this unsung hero?

12. It doesn't say 'only one robot per tv series,' so Futurama could sweep
the field. Just off the top of my head I can list some great bots:

Calculon

Donbot

Fatbot

Hedonismbot

Crushinator


etc.,etc.

14. This list is bullshit.
It has Tom Servo, but no Crow.

Everybody knows that Crow T. Robot > Tom Servo.
