Galileo is the main antagonist from Talking Tom and Friends who debuted in Funny Robot Galileo.
He was a robot invented by Ben to be a comedian, in order to tell science jokes, but was defective and ended up a snarky robot who mocked others for entertainment.
Appearance[]
Galileo is a metallic animatronic that resembled Ben. His eyes would change colour depending on the jokes it told; when it told Ben's innocent but nerdy jokes, they'd be blue. However, when it insulted others, they'd be red.
Personality[]
Galileo's innocent side would tell science jokes, but none of them would be funny. However, his snarkier side liked telling jokes that insulted others. He found entertainment in making a mockery of others.
Powers and Abilities[]
He was extremely agile and could leap and swing over surfaces easily. He also was very skilled with skateboarding.
History[]
Originally, Galileo was created to tell the same type of jokes as Ben's; he was created to help Ben with his delivery when he did stand-up comedy.
However, after Angela accidentally squirted vinegar into his mouth, his jokes turned into wisecracks. Still, it was funny to the friends, so they laughed it off.
To ensure that Galileo continued to tell the jokes that would impress the CEO, Tom and Ben snuck downstairs at night and slipped a little more vinegar into his mouth. Then, Hank sleepwalked downstairs, causing him to pour an excessive amount of vinegar into his mouth.
The next day, the friends realized that his jokes got a little to harsh. They turned into insults, so Ben tried to shut him down. However, he ran off to the CEO tower.
He barricaded the door with a broom when he got there, ran onstage, and told mean jokes about the CEO. Eventually, Tom was able to burst open the door. Ben runs onstage, tackles Galileo, rips him open and pulled out his wires until Galileo shut down.
Trivia[]
