The Cross Cousins might be the most divisive characters in my life as a teenage robot. Members of the fandom can't seem to decide whether to love them or hate them. Today, I'm hoping to explain both sides of the argument. Burton's hip were introduced in the second episode of my life as a teenage robot, class action, and appeared in many other episodes as villains. Without breaking down what they did in every single episode, they're flat out bullies. They constantly try to hurt Jenny while she just wants to be their friend. They're the most frequently appearing villains in the show. Both Britain and Tiff have shown signs of humanity, such as signing with Jenny, but they usually only do this to benefit themselves. There are also instincts in of them siding with the cluster. This has a tendency to change in a single episode. The most famous instance of this was an escape from cluster prime. The only thing they really care about are themselves. They're the stereotypical mean girls who live for fashion. In fact, the main conflict in dress to kill and victim of fashion was related to Britain Tiff's obsession with fashion. Some fans also consider them to be lazily written characters, since their only defining traits are the same as mean high school girls. I have to defend the cross cousins here. There's countless other shows from the early 2000s with characters who embody the mean teenage girl trope. This isn't a problem with the writing for Britain Tiff. It's a problem shows at the time had. I'm actually a fan of Britain Tiff's character designs. They stand out from the other kids at Trumerton High, but they still look like they belong there. You can also easily tell that they're mean just by looking at them. Of course, Britain Tiff aren't pleasant characters. Their main purpose in this show is to cause drama and conflict between them and other characters. I can't blame anyone for hating them, but would this show really be better without them? How conflict shows get born? If you want fans to enjoy the journey, there has to be people for the protagonist to clash with. My life as a teenage robot was never just a show about a robot fighting aliens. Jenny is a robot who also wants to be a normal teenage girl, and when an alien can't cause conflict for Jenny in school, Britain Tiff are there for you to hate. That's their main purpose, and by the look of things, they're doing a great job. People can't hate them that much. In fact, Tiff is one of the only characters which shows up when you google my life as a teenage robot. See? Oh, for a f*** sake. I've been your narrator, Yoshi Fan 2010. Thanks for watching.
