Well? You read the headline. What should it be called, do you think? You do not need any more information. Or I guess the only other real piece of information that you need is that J.J. Abrams’ robot buddy cop show does not currently have a name. So everything you can think of is on the table. UGH OK well fine, here is some more information. From Deadline:
With Fringe heading into its final season, the series’ JJ Abrams and J.H. Wyman have set up a new futuristic drama at Fox.
In a competitive situation, the network has nabbed the untitled Warner Bros. TV/Bad Robot-produced project with a pilot production commitment. It is described as an action-packed buddy cop show, set in the near future, when all LAPD officers are partnered with highly evolved human-like androids.
ARE YOU HAPPY NOW? I’m not as big of a J.J. Abrams’ fan as you guys probably are, so you might have some better insight into show-naming, but here are my ideas:
- Future Cop Budz 6.0
- d0nUtz.
- I’m Paired With A Ro-WHAT?
- This Guy Again…
- A.N.D.R.O.I.D
Those are all pretty good, right? I hope I guessed the right one! If you’re reading this J.J. Abrams, feel free to take one of those!!! Do you guys have any ideas, or did I steal them all?

I, Robot. You, Jane.
(Also, the human partner will be played by Tom Jane)
M. Night Shyamalan is consulting. The twist: It’s the robot that just wants his kids back, but he just thinks he has kids, because he has a ghosts memories, but he doesn’t have kids because he’s a robot. But he doesn’t know.
I suppose Robo-Cop is out.
Cop-Robot!

You guys remember this 12-year-old reference from Friends right? Good. I expect plenty of upvotes for my very lazy reference. Thanks.
Could your jokes BE any older?!

The Bionic…Buddy…Cop…show…FUCK FUCK FUCK I AM TERRIBLE AT THESE THINGS
Here, let me at least do the theme song:
BAD ROBOT. YOU’RE A BAD BAD ROBOT
BAD ROBOT!
[dubstep part, and it's awful]
he’s just a mothafuckin robot
in the mothafuckin streets
does lotsa robot things
AND HE’LL FUCK YOU UP
plus he’s a cop robot and it’s a bad idea for a show.
BAD ROBOT: A Bad Robot Buddy Cop Show, featuring a not-robot too, I guess.
pow!
LOST
I don’t even know where the theme song ended and the commentary began or even what the show is called anymore but I think it’s a reboot of Lost now, so, well. I’m sorry, again, really, there should be some kind of rule against me posting on these make-up-a-name-for-a-thing posts.

On a side note: GET SOME REAL NAMES “J.J” AND “J.H.”
I am going to start calling all my friends brobots now. Brobots and sasstronauts. I have the best slang.
Sasstronauts!! There’s also Flight of the Conchords’ “robros” which is fun to say.
The Sasstronaut should be a contestant on Season 5 of Rupaul’s Drag Race.
Yeah, I mean, “Brobots” seems like the actual answer to the question.
