Description

Mannequin. A struggling artist works odd jobs, one of which is in a mannequin factory. He spends a lot of time over one mannequin (female, of course). Later she comes to life. There's a variation in why the mannequin comes to life. The music video for REO Speedwagon's "Keep on Loving You" opens and ends with Kevin Cronin talking to a psychiatrist about how he wrote a love song about a made-up woman, only to fall in love with her.

Interest Stacks

Moonlighting 's second-season episode "My Fair David" (1985) is inspired by the movie My Fair Lady, in a plot where Maddie Hayes makes a bet with David Addison consisting in making him softer and more serious with work. She is her Henry Higgins, while he is put in the Eliza Doolittle position, as the funny, clumsy, bad-mannered part of the relationship. The Great Lakeside High Experiment was filmed for TV as The Great Love Experiment. A plain girl was given a makeover and the most popular kids in school pretended to be her friends as a psychological experiment.

Batman villain Professor Pyg is styled after this trope. He mutilates his victims both physically and mentally into living dolls based on his warped sense of belief of what a perfect human being should look like. Pygmalion (1973), a BBC Play of the Month version starring James Villiers as Higgins and Lynn Redgrave as Eliza. In Texhnolyze, Mad Scientist Doc gives cybertronic limbs to Ichise, the show's main Anti-Hero, to replace the ones he lost in a fight. She later admits to loving him because of how well he took to the technology. A species-wide version in Preacher: It turns out God created man so he'd have creatures that would love him unconditionally no matter what kind of misery he inflicts on them. So Weird did an episode about a painter who disappeared into the beautiful pastoral scene he'd created after falling for it. Though this is probably a near-miss, the Opening Monologue relates the story of Pygmalion.Andrew himself is an inversion, as he's a Robot Maid who develops sentience by accident and as he slowly becomes more human-like (encouraged by his original owner and his daughter) he starts to desire human love and eventually marries the great-granddaughter of his former owner. The Duff(2015): based on the novel of the same name by Kody Keplinger, which in turn is a modern teenage adaption of Pygmalion.
