Line 26:
* In a parody of ''[[Cast Away]]'', an episode of ''[[Being Ian]]'' has Ian trapped on a sandbar and talking to polystyrene coffee cup.
* While a semi-intelligent killing machine and thus not very ''inanimate'', Rover from ''[[The Prisoner]]'' is a ''large, white bouncing '''ball'''''. Needless to say, '''he''' is a favorite among fans and a common icon of the series.
* ''[[Firefly (TV series)|Firefly]]'s'' Jayne Cobb treats his very favorite gun, [[I Call It Vera|Vera]], as if its a real person—so much so that he's willing to ''trade'' it for Mal's [[Accidental Marriage|Accidental Wife]].
** And telling Vera that getting dressed up means she gets taken out special-like - while putting her in a spacesuit to fire at a target in hard vacuum.
** Also, the ship's mechanic, Kaylee, often talks about the ship ''Serenity'' as if its a real person. In the pilot movie she strokes the inside wall of the engine room and coos, "That's my good girl" after a jury-rig allowed ''Serenity'' to pull off a difficult maneuver. Mal treats her like a person occasionally, as well.
