In the not-so-distant future (next Sunday, AD), Crow T. Robot lived on the Satellite of Love. His creator, Joel Robinson, gave him free will and a bizarre sense of humor, which served well in helping Joel to endure the many excruciating experiments, in the form of bad movies, sent by his tormentors on the planet below. Crow was said to be constructed of special parts that might have allowed Joel to control the beginning and end of the movies he saw. Apparently most of his body was Molybdenum and high-density Kevlar.At one time Crow was told by Joel that his name was an acronym for Cybernetic Remotely Operated Woman, but then claimed that he had programmed him with a false memory in order to play this practical joke on him. Joel also jokingly introduced Crow as Art Crow! (as a takeoff on Art Carney from the Honeymooners), which resulted in confusion about his name. Later Pearl Forrester consistently referred to him as Art. Crow regarded Joel as a father figure, and respected him even when he was punished, sometimes by having an arm ripped off after a particularly bad pun. After Joel's escape from the satellite, he did not show the same respect for Mike Nelson, the new guy the Mad Scientists Dr. Forrester and TV's Frank sent up to replace Joel. Crow generally regarded Mike as more of a little brother. He treated his fellow robots, Gypsy and Tom Servo, more or less in the same way.Crow would show an attraction for human women, including Kim Cattrall and Estelle Winwood. When Tom Servo dated Gypsy, Crow took advantage of the opportunity to charm her, but he never really showed any interest in her, except as a means of getting to Tom Servo.He also is an aspiring writer, producing screenplays such as Earth vs. Soup, The Spy Who Hugged Me and Chocolate Jones and the Temple of Funk. He also wrote a documentary titled Crow T. Robot's Bram Stoker's The Civil War, and created another called Let's Talk Women!, in which he denies the existence of women. He also wrote a one man show titled Robot on the Run, a Christmas carol titled Let's have a Patrick Swayze Christmas, and he co-wrote a musical called Supercalifragilisticexpiali-wacky! Once during Joel's tenure, Crow acquired a double named Timmy , to whom the trio quickly took a liking. (Timmy was actually the painted-black Crow used for the Shadowrama in the theater.) However, the double began playing tricks on Tom Servo and Joel, who blamed Crow for the actions. He eventually joined them in the theater during the movie and attacked Tom, cocooning him in a material identical to the xenomorph in Alien, forcing Joel (who referenced Aliens by growling, Let go of him, you bitch! ) and Crow to stuff him into an airlock and blast him out of the ship and into space.Crow holds the distinction of being the only SOL robot who ever visited Deep 13 (although Tom Servo and Gypsy once visited the alternate-earth version): He slid down the Umbilicus in an attempt to bring the SOL back to Earth, only to be frightened back up by Dr. Forrester (who then had Frank put a giant mousetrap beneath the Umbilicus). On a later occasion, Crow attended the Forrester Thanksgiving dinner alongside such guests as Mr. B Natural, Pitch the Devil, and others. Due to a time travel paradox, a second Crow also lives in Minnesota, working at a cheese factory.After a trip to the edge of the Universe in which Crow became the essence of pure energy (or pure chewing satisfaction, or something) Crow's voice mysteriously changed. Some have speculated that minor changes in his personality accompanied this change, but it is difficult to be certain whether this was simply a result of the 500 years in which he was a disembodied spirit playing at the edge of the Universe.
