Crichton  - A highly intelligent but often rude silver robot on the sci-fi series BUCK ROGERS IN THE 25TH CENTURY/NBC/1979-81. Created by Dr. Goodfellow (Wilfred Hyde-White), an elderly scientist onboard the starship "Searcher," the robot Crichton (voice of Jeff Davis) could not compute that its perfect circuitry was designed by an imperfect human. With his slender metallic arms akimbo, he often stated "I am a superior being!" Designed by John Mantley, Crichton was one of the first fully functional robots built for a TV series. It was operated by radio remote control with the abilities to glide on wheels, tilt its head and extend neck and arms. See also - "Twiki"
