Rolie Polie Olie
A Canadian television program airing since 1998, aimed at children that was created by William Joyce. It also airs on the Disney Channel.
Rolie Polie Olie centers on the title character, who by all appearances is a robot made out of spheres, and his family. His best friend is his next door neighbor, made out of cubes. He has a robot dog, and several inanimate objects have faces.
A Nelvana program.

- Stop Copying Me: Once, the little Zowie begins to parrot Olie, much to his annoyance. He eventually exploits this to make her go to bed.
