I know they are bad guys, but I have developed a new affection for Daleks. I don't know what they were like back in the day, but the Eccleston Doctors Daleks are all shades of creepy.

GENERAL GRIEVOUS!!! Oh, wait... he has a human heart and eyeballs. Well, I love R2-D2, too.

Maximillian from Blackhole. The beginning of many robophobias in us humans.

Daleks aren't robots. They have a squishy little Kaled mutant in them, so they are really just envro-suits. Or tanks with plungers in case of a stopped drain. D@mn you, Davros!
While I love V.I.N.Cent from The Black Hole I'd really have to go with the other floatybot, B.O.B. I mean, V.I.N.Cent just seemed like Kitt from Knightrider as a robot. But B.O.B. was Slim Pickens. Now that's cool.

I go with chrisisall here.
Robot from "Lost in Space".
Of course Dr. Smith would have to tag along. You can't separate them. It would be like separating Abbot and Costello, only worse.
"Warning Will Robinson."
Chrisisall remember when an alien turned Robot into gold and he paraded around telling everybody to call him "Golden Boy".![]()

I can't believe no one's mentioned him yet. He's regarded as the only robot in sci-fi history that isn't either an effeminate wimp or a psycotic killing machine. I am of course talking about.....
BENDER from FUTURAMA.
My fave Bender bit from the first Xmas episode.
Conan O'Brien: Listen, pal. I may have lost my freakishly long legs in the war of 2012, but I have something you'll never have. A soul.
Bender: Meh
Conan: AND FRECKLES!!
Bender: (breaks down and cries)
You know what, practically every robot that you see on FUTURAMA was great as well. My favorite cameo one was Hedonism Bot that came in on the fourth season. Just the fact that there's a robot made to serve no purpose but to eat grapes and act like a Roman senator is just great.
"Surgery? In an opera? How wonderfully decadent. And justy as I was beginning to lose interest. Jumby, the chocolate icing." (has it slathered all over him) "Ohhh, oh my yes, hhmmmhmmmhmmmm."

"There's only one "Return" ok, and it ain't "of the King", it's "of the Jedi."
"Maybe we should start calling your friend 'Padme' because he loves 'Mannequin Skywalker' so much, Right? (imitating robot) Danger...danger...my name is Anakin...my shitty acting is ruining saga."
