Top 5 Best TV robots
Earlier this year, we counted down the best movie robots ever and you seemed to quite enjoy that. So, we went back to the drawing board to decide on the best TV robots ever, and again we're including androids. It's quite a different crew from the movie scene. Friendlier--some might say, smarter--robots dominate this list. But then when is a robot not smart?
You also get a chance to win this time. Not one, not two, but three prizes. Watch our video to get the question, then post your answer below. Be one of the first 10 people to answer correctly and you could win!
Update Congrats to PacGamer who was one of many many people to correctly identify Robot as Model B-9, Class M-3, General Utility Non-Theorizing Environmental Control Robot. PacGamer came up lucky in the random drawing and gets the Bag, Game and shiny penny.
