== Plot ==
Thrasher and Blastus are two outsider robots that live on the planet Insanus. Insanus is a planet inhabited by murderous robots who seek to kill one another for no apparent reason. Slightly less horrific than their peers, the duo seek to make it through high-school, and navigate their lives with varying degrees of success. While Thrasher wishes to gain the affections of an attractive female robot Maimy, Blastus just wants to be recognized as popular. Some episode focus on a point-of-view of the other minor characters with familar problems such as health issues, religious traditions and popular trends of the 2000s.

== Characters ==
=== Students ===
Thrasher (voiced by Patton Oswalt) - A tall, lankly robot who is spiritual but not very confrontational and has a crush on the popular female robot Maimy. Thrasher has a baby sister, who is considered very violent and dangerous towards him and others. Though calm and reserved, he often falls prey to Blastus' badly-thought out plans.
Blastus (voiced by John Gemberling) - As with Thrasher, and unlike most robots on Insanus, Blastus is a pretty sensitive and non-homicidal, to which his mother doesn't approve. In his quest to become popular, he is incredibly impulsive and overconfident in his abilities.
Weenus (voiced by Odette) - A nerdy robot that is even lower on the social pyramid than the two main characters, Weenus is a sociopath with Tourette's, whose giant arm is thought to be the most powerful weapon on the planet. He has a notoriously weak and lousy digestive system which often causes him to have tummy troubles and a gurgle attack on every episode, yet he loves cross-dressing and being feminine towards the crowd.
Megawatt (voiced by Michael Sinterniklaas) - A spoiled rich kid at Harry S. Apocalypse High, Megawatt is quite dim and incredibly homicidal, which makes him attractive to female robots.
Maimy (voiced by Jessie Cantrell) - A popular student at Harry S. Apocalypse High, Maimy is Thrasher's crush, but she is barely even aware of the robot's existence and even then, later grows to hook up with him in later seasons. She has a baby brother with a deeply-demonic voice. Maimy has a potbelly and tenderly weak stomach just like Weenus.
Proxy (voiced by Tress MacNeile) - A thin, dorky robot who is Maimy's skittish twin sister, often easily frightened but fiercely loyal to her friends and family, showing moments of unexpected bravery when they need her most.
Tacklebot (voiced by Roger Craig Smith) - A strong, burly robot who's part of the football team. He is usually being seen bullying the smaller robots by beating them up as a way to make him feel stronger. He will always be randomly attacking Thrasher and Blastus out of nowhere just for the sake of being abusive so that he will feel strong, or so Weenus claims, but when the latter suffers from frequent tummyaches, Tacklebot himself often understands him in this condition.
Steve (voiced by Roger Craig Smith) - A robot that will recurrently make random appearances in episodes of the show. He is a mentally challenged robot with many arms that he uses to destroy things with. He is very narcissistic and loves everything he does. He is however, unaware of how much destruction he causes while doing this. In the end, he always seems to somehow pull though and make things right, no matter how horrible he makes he situation.
Felato (voiced by Beatrice Elizabeth Baron) - A fashionable yet self-reliant catgirl robot known for her popular blog "Kittens In Tight Tanktops", who even thinks of others as lame when they're too much attentive or not as much, yet she feasts on their pain and suffering.
Furso (voiced by Judy Greer) - Felato's considerate and gifted sister, a mongrel (Beagle and Yorkie hybrid) bot with a talent for creativity and a heart of gold, they are an only other friend of Blastus and Thrasher besides Weenus.
Skipperz (voiced by Bindy Coda) - A timid yet curious rabbit girl, the solar opposite of Weenus, who shares his notorious stomach ailment but approaches life with cautious optimism.
Cavyroo (voiced by Lara Jill Miller) - A resilient guinea pig-kangaroo hybrid, Melopix farmer and forager, known for their resourcefulness and adaptability, despite being wheelchair-bound, they remain determined and adventurous in navigating their world.
=== Staff ===
Madame Fang-Bone (voiced by Justine Bateman) - A slightly nervous yet well-meaning wife of Dreadnot who is the new teacher in later seasons, tasked with guiding the class through their educational journey with a mix of anxiety and determination.
Dreadnot (voiced by Dana Snyder) - A sadistic teacher that finds joy in torturing and invoking pain into his students: all in his attempt to transform them into hyper-violent drones.
Thunderbite (voiced by Dana Snyder) - An oversized, skull-shaped robot, who is the principal of Harry S. Apocalypse High School, and is incredibly sweet and motherly to the students when he isn't causing pain. He is good friends with Thrasher and Blastus.
Nurse Milady Robin (voiced by Linda Ballantyne) - A school nurse who is yet the busy mother of Maimy who cares for other students with illnesses and or injuries.
