    lol, I was thinking of the same thing. I can't wait to see that episode.

    Seriously though, it's pretty fucked up that someone decided to ruin this for everyone involved.

    This sounds like the usual start to the robot uprising.

    This could have happened as easily as if it were human. Hitch-hiking is a risky business.

    I think the next hitchBot should be one of those female androids they make in Japan. Let's see how far it gets. :p

    Since Hitchbot was from Toronto, I blame Meek Mill for this.

    Didn't have enough "input" to know that hitchhiking is a bad idea.

    Travels across Canada, Germany, and the Netherlands. Here in the states, it took 2 weeks for it to be destroyed.

    Come on, who is surprised?

    I mean if Santa Claus cannot make it in Philly, what chance does this robot have?

    For what it's worth, HitchBot wouldn't have faired any better in England, he probably wouldn't even have survived the first couple days.

    Next time, send one EAST or SOUTH, and see if the results are ANY different.
