XJ9

is an American television series created by Rob Renzetti. The series follows the adventures of a 16-year-old robot girl called Jenny Wakeman (aka XJ-9), who was created by her mother Dr. Nora Wakeman and designed to protect Earth, but really wants to do teenage stuff and not save the world.

Nickelodeon debuted the series by airing the first episode of My Life as a Teenage Robot on August 1, 2003 at 8:30 PM. But despite critical success, the series was a ratings disappointment. After the series was cancelled, later episodes of the series started airing as "never before seen episodes" on Nicktoons Network. The series is distributed outside the United States by the Canadian animation studio, Nelvana Limited.

The first season is available on iTunes. Seasons 1, 2, and 3 are now available on DVD at Amazon. It is also shown on Nicktoons Sunday mornings before El Tigre.


Jenny Wakeman (Janice Kawaye), whose real robot name is XJ-9, is a teenage robot created by Dr. Nora Wakeman (Candi Milo); that makes Nora XJ-9's mom and XJ-9 Nora's daughter. Jenny is programmed to protect the Earth and fight off anyone or anything that causes harm (such as Queen Vexus (Eartha Kitt) and the Cluster). But Jenny wants to live the life of a normal teenage girl (without her mom getting in her way and bugging her) and hang out with her friends Brad Carbunkle (Chad Doreck), his little brother Tuck (Audrey Wasilewski), and Sheldon Lee (Quinton Flynn).
