Trace Beaulieu: Crow T. Robot

Quotes 

• [the episode opens with Crow in a cryogenic chamber] 

  Crow T. Robot : Hi, folks. Welcome to the Satellite of... Love. Say, uh, Tom, what's with the Crow-in-the-box?

  Joel : Oh, I'm just taking Crow's temperature down to absolute zero! Woohoo!

  Crow T. Robot : Tom! If you do that, you'll cease all molecular activity! It could start a chain reaction that could destroy us all!

  Joel : Yeah, that's how it played out in our scenario. Hey, wait a minute! That would be really stupid!

  [Joel puts on a pair of thermal gloves and opens the cryogenic chamber] 

  Crow T. Robot : Hang on, Crow! Don't worry! I got ya!

  [Joel reaches into the chamber and Crow shatters] 

  Joel : Good one, Joel!

  Crow T. Robot : Oops. We'll be right back.

  Joel : I'm not putting him back together, either.

• Crow T. Robot : Anyway, a lot of people have recognized that this first Gameron film is in black and white and since there's been so much controversy over Ted Turner colorizing all those classic MGM movies, I thought it'd be time to do a popular opinion survey. Use your phones: call us at 623-7655. And now, Cambot, could you put the messages up on the screen? Or the quiz questions? First quiz question is: Is Ted Turner dumb enough to colorize the beginning of "The Wizard of Oz"?

  Dr. Lawrence Erhardt : Call in with your answer!

  Crow T. Robot : Right. Question number two: Does it bother Ted Turner that people watch his colorized films on black and white TV?

  Dr. Lawrence Erhardt : Let us know what you think!

  Crow T. Robot : Question number three: Given Ted's obsession with colorizing things, is it possible he's the unwanted love child of Ike and Tina Turner?

  Dr. Lawrence Erhardt : Give us a call! Tell us your answer.
