Character
Robot 1-X
Robot 1-X in Futurama (1999), played by Phil LaMarr.
1-X is Bender's sleeker successor, a shinier and more advanced robot unit introduced as the new model on the block. Smooth-talking and effortlessly cool, he charms Fry and the rest of the crew with ease, making Bender's obsolescence sting all the more by comparison.
Phil LaMarr gives 1-X a laid-back, unbothered smugness that never tips into outright villainy, which is exactly what makes him such an effective foil. He's likable enough that you understand why everyone prefers him, which sharpens the sitcom-perfect jealousy plot built around him.
