Professor Cushion

Professor Cushion is a cushion with an artificial brain in it's top zipper, and has a built-in voice synthesizer, both built by Edwin Higginbotham and Charles Francis Delafontaine. Unlike most characters, he does not have an actual actor to voice him. Instead, the creators of the show decided to voice him with a program.

Early Life
He was born (created) in Edwin and Charles' apartment during the time when the usual lounge got flooded accidentally. Charles built him in order to have a new house companion (possibly to replace Coffy Leland as a friend). The experiment was a success, although Professor Cushion could not speak as quickly as they thought he would. His computer makes a beep sound before every sentence, and (sometimes) you would have to wait a while for a simple response. Despite this tiny error, Cushion has demonstrated his high levels of intelligence, being instantly able to read Charles' mind during a guessing game, and knows the full name, physical characteristics and birthday of everyone in the apartment.

Living With Edwin And Charles
Edwin and Charles later built Professor Cushion a mobility chair powered by the computer. He now has the ability to freely roam the apartment.
