''Robot Rumpus'' (1956) is one of the earliest shorts in the ''[[Gumby]]'' series. Outside the ''Gumby'' fandom, the short is noted for appearing in [[Mystery Science Theater 3000
The plot centers on Gumby and Pokey getting out of their chores by using robots to do all the work. Of course, the robots go rogue - tearing up the house and harrassing everyone. Gumby and his father, Gumbo, race to deactivate them.
