Moby The Robot
Moby is an animated robot from BrainPop who works with Tim (BrainPop), Annie (BrainPop JR), and Ben (BrainPop ESL). His first appearance was in 1999 when BrainPop was founded.
History
Moby first appeared in 1999 on BrainPop with a teenage boy named Tim. In 2006 when BrainPop JR was created, Moby appeared with a little girl named Annie. Moby can be foolish to both Tim and Annie. It is unknown when Moby was created in the BrainPop world, but he was probably made by Leonardo Da Vinci, which revealed in a movie about Leornado Da Vinci. However, most clips about space tell that Moby is from an unknown planet.
BrainPop
Moby works with a teenage boy named Tim. At the beginning of a BrainPop movie, Tim and Moby answer a letter that they get from students and say information about that topic. At the end of the movie( which can occur in the beginning also for most movies) Moby tends to act foolish to Tim and does a trick to him. Moby can also do tricks for himself too. Usually, in the end he will try to harm Tim. His methods include freezing Tim and hypnotizing him. In fact, in one BrainPop clip, Tim makes "the law offices of Tim & Tim", and asks the viewers if they had been harassed by a robot. Even another clip at the very end of levers when he sends Tim flying in the air! Moby constantly annoys Tim, but he still likes Tim, and Tim likes him, even after more than 100 episodes of torture.
BrainPop Jr.
In 2006, BrainPop Jr. was created. Moby started working with a little girl name Annie. Unlike Tim, Annie has warm feelings for Moby, but Moby can also trick Annie. Annie has a sister named Mia, who spends too much time on the phone and can also be tricked by Moby.[1]
