    The iron giant is a robot.
    I don't think he has a gender.

    Also, Applejack and Applebloom are sisters.
    While that doesn't necessarily mean that they can't be friends, I think the familial relationship should exclude them from this list.

    Also, robots are genderless.
    So... no Iron Giant, either.

    I with Spline.

    Also some robots have gender. Then there are robots of one gender that have alt modes of a different gender. The male Waspinator transformed into a female wasp.

    Airship, you don't know what you're talking about in regards to J.D. and Turk. One of the deepest aspects of Scrubs was the dark emotional turmoil that so many characters went through in the different seasons, and those two characters had scenes where they help each other out. They don't just tolerate each other, they're compassionate friends that each share the burdens of the other in regards to making life/death choices and hard relationship choices. The "healing power of friendship" and companionship/compassion is literally what Scrubs is all about, despite being a comedy on the surface.

    The view that House was well done is not incompatible with the view that Scrubs was well done. They can both have good emotions.

    Nothing about you saying "I don't watch Scrubs" is hard for me to understand. Nothing at all. What's a little difficult for me to understand is why you would go through all the trouble of condescending to the multiple people in this thread who answered with an opinion that was different than yours in spite of the fact that even you admit you are largely ignorant when it comes to the content of the show, which I why I said what I said. You have no idea what you're talking about.

    Scrubs is a comedy, so obviously it is going to have jokes in it. And nobody is making you watch it or like it. But if you can't handle the idea that other people in this thread are going to disagree with you, maybe you shouldn't make these threads at all. It's generally considered pretty rude to open up a discussion and then proceed to repeatedly bash the opinions of others. We all know you don't watch Scrubs. You said it in the third post in this thread when you brushed off the first comment made by someone who disagreed with you. Yet you've continued to justify your dislike for that show as if that was what this thread was about: as if it was your responsibility to alter people's opinions until they fit within the scope of whatever you deem acceptable.

    Your insistence that the things you do like are deep and meaningful and the things you don't like are vapid and meaningless only betrays your singlemindedness. Either learn to agree to disagree without putting down other people's opinions, or keep your toxic comments to yourself. I don't know if you've noticed this, but there's a huge trend on this site where you argue with a number of different people over issues that are nearly identical to this. It seems pretty evident that you need an attitude adjustment.

    I'm not trying to get you to like something you don't like, but I am saying its not cool to put down down other people continuously for liking something that you don't like.

    As for Scrubs, you don't seem to have followed my posts very closely if you think I've said nothing else to defend it. It is a comedy, so it has its moments of pure humor, but it is allowed to express other feelings, too. If I wasn't on mobile, I could probably link you to any of the more touching and serious moments in the series, but I can't do that right now, so oh well. Too bad, so sad. I don't really want to change your opinion, I just want you to let other people have theirs.

    Like it or not, you are (and have been) pretty mean. If you were "right" or "correct" maybe you could justify being mean, but this isn't an issue of correctness; this is an issue of opinions, so where we find ourselves is with you, pushing people around because of your opinion about a show. I never wanted to "debate" how good Scrubs is, but I wanted to maybe show you why someone else could like it. When you made it helpfully clear that you were more interested in asserting yourself over other people, THAT is when I told you that you were being mean. My advice would be to stop snidely asserting that you have better taste than everyone else, and maybe just try to respect the fact that other people like stuff that you don't like.

    Fine, I'm sorry.

    I was just frustated that the intention behind the poll wasn't madeclear.

    I should have been more polite.

    I apologize to anyone I may have offended.
