'''Calculon''' | {{about|the acting unit|the ''[[All My Circuits]]'' character|Calculon (All My Circuits)}} | ||
'''Calculon''' was an acting unit most famous as [[Calculon (All My Circuits)|the star]] of the hit robot soap opera ''[[All My Circuits]]''. He has also appeared in films, including ''[[The Magnificent Three]]'', for which he was nominated for an Oscar at the [[1074th Academy Awards]]. In [[3012]], Calculon was killed in the [[World Acting Championship]]. In [[3013]], he was resurrected for a brief period, before dying once more after he had delivered the best acting performance of his career. | |||
== Biography == | |||
Throughout his career he | Throughout his career, he had lived a secret life unknown to the public. Calculon claimed to be 27 years old, but he was actually almost 1000 ([[The Honking|2ACV18]]). He started his life humbly as a motorized service arm working on [[Project Satan]]. He was later offered acting talent through a deal with the [[Robot Devil]], who collected on that bargain in [[3004]] by asking Calculon to give up his ears {{et|4ACV18}}. He made his way to being many of history's great acting robots, including [[Acting Unit 0.8]], [[Thespa-mat]], and [[David Duchovny's head|David Duchovny]]. For most of these thousand years, he was also a [[Were-Car]], until [[Philip J. Fry|Fry]] and [[Turanga Leela|Leela]] broke the curse by destroying [[Project Satan|the original were-car]]. | ||
==Known | At some point in his career he became acquainted with the works of [[Harold Zoid]], whom he came to idolize {{et|3ACV08}}. He was presented with the opportunity to work under Zoid's direction on ''[[The Magnificent Three]]'', with the promise that he would win an Oscar for his work on the film. When he was not nominated, he threatened [[Dr. John A. Zoidberg|Dr. Zoidberg]], [[Bender Bending Rodríguez|Bender]], and his idol Harold Zoid with death. Through Zoidberg's manipulation, he was nominated for Best Actor but ultimately lost to Zoid (again, through Zoidberg's manipulation). | ||
*TV | |||
In [[3004]], he was invited at the [[Late Night with Humorbot 5.0]], where he met [[Coilette]] from [[Robonia]], winner of five gold medals. He fell in love with her, not knowing she was actually Bender who changed his sex. They dated, and he asked Coilette to marry him. On the wedding day, Coilette faked her death, having suffered of [[African Hydraulic Fever]]. Calculon then starred in ''[[Coilette: A Calculon Story]]'' to honor his old love's memory {{et|4ACV13}}. | |||
He is a member of the [[League of Robots]] and, for a time, was its [[president (disambiguation)|president]]. Under his leadership the organization remained lenient on it's official human-killing plank. After Bender joined in [[3008]], and was caught helping his human friends escape during [[Yivo]]'s universe-wide mating (despite his frequent anti-human tirades), Calculon and the rest of the League mocked Bender ([[The Beast with a Billion Backs|TBwaBB]]). Bender challenged Calculon to a duel and won, vaporizing Calculon's arm. Calculon resigned his leadership in the organization. | |||
In [[3010]], he was directing [[Catastrophe Beach Party|a disaster film]], but most of the props and the actors were presumably destroyed and killed in [[Thubanian Invasion of Earth|a real disaster]] in shooting the first scene {{et|6ACV08}}. | |||
In [[3012]], Calculon consumed a bottle of food colouring, which is fatal to robots, in an attempt to defeat [[Langdon Cobb]] in the World Acting Championship. Despite his sacrifice, Cobb still won the championship. | |||
In [[3013]], Fry and Bender set out to bring Calculon back from the dead, due to their mutual disliking of the inferior robot actor who replaced Calculon on ''All My Circuits''. With help from the Professor, they were able to bring his software back from [[Robot Hell]] and successfully reinstall it back into his body, which Bender had previously dug up. Calculon 2.0 was hereby born. During the year that Calculon had been dead, everyone had forgotten about him and he was now classed as a bad actor. The network executives at ''All My Circuits'' refused to recast Calculon 2.0 back into the lead role he once had in the show. This shocked and deeply saddened Calculon, as he always thought he was the greatest actor who had ever lived. Even his star on the Hollywood walk of fame was removed. Eventually he was persuaded to audition in disguise for a bit part on ''All My Circuits'', playing himself. After a wake up call from Leela in which she called him a "grade-"B" actor" who was "immediately forgotten", Calculon lost his strong sense of ego and became very sad. This newfound emotion set him up for his acting scene in which he delivered a moving performance, perhaps the best of his entire acting career. The cast of the show, Fry, Leela, Bender and the executives are hugely impressed and tell him he must take a bow. As he bends over, he pulls the prop rope, pulling a large lighting rig crashing down, missing Calculon narrowly. However, just moments after, another part of the stage above comes flying down. It crushes Calculon, and he is killed instantly, as the crowd looks on horrified. In honor of Calculon 2.0, his star on the walk of fame was reinstated. Calculon 2.0's wish of dying knowing he was a great actor who was adored again was fulfilled, and Calculon 2.0's spirit went back to Robot Hell to spend eternity, much to the Robot Devil's dismay. | |||
== Personality == | |||
Calculon was a skilled actor who is programmed to be very busy. He is idolized by many people, including [[Bender Bending Rodríguez|Bender]], and he can be extremely self-centered. Calculon's acting talent seemed to have infused itself into his everyday life, and he speaks very melodramatically. He could be driven to violence when he doesn't get his way, such as when he was not nominated for an Oscar after appearing in ''[[The Magnificent Three]]'' and threatened to murder Zoidberg, Zoid, and Bender. However, he is also incredibly gullible. He hired Bender as an actor on ''[[All My Circuits]]'' because he believed "the audience" was rejecting the actors trying out for the show, when it was just Bender right outside the casting room yelling and disparaging everyone who came before him. | |||

- This article is about the acting unit. For the All My Circuits character, see Calculon (All My Circuits).
Calculon was an acting unit most famous as the star of the hit robot soap opera All My Circuits. He has also appeared in films, including The Magnificent Three, for which he was nominated for an Oscar at the 1074th Academy Awards. In 3012, Calculon was killed in the World Acting Championship. In 3013, he was resurrected for a brief period, before dying once more after he had delivered the best acting performance of his career.
Biography
Throughout his career, he had lived a secret life unknown to the public. Calculon claimed to be 27 years old, but he was actually almost 1000 (2ACV18). He started his life humbly as a motorized service arm working on Project Satan. He was later offered acting talent through a deal with the Robot Devil, who collected on that bargain in 3004 by asking Calculon to give up his ears (4ACV18). He made his way to being many of history's great acting robots, including Acting Unit 0.8, Thespa-mat, and David Duchovny. For most of these thousand years, he was also a Were-Car, until Fry and Leela broke the curse by destroying the original were-car.
At some point in his career he became acquainted with the works of Harold Zoid, whom he came to idolize (3ACV08). He was presented with the opportunity to work under Zoid's direction on The Magnificent Three, with the promise that he would win an Oscar for his work on the film. When he was not nominated, he threatened Dr. Zoidberg, Bender, and his idol Harold Zoid with death. Through Zoidberg's manipulation, he was nominated for Best Actor but ultimately lost to Zoid (again, through Zoidberg's manipulation).
In 3004, he was invited at the Late Night with Humorbot 5.0, where he met Coilette from Robonia, winner of five gold medals. He fell in love with her, not knowing she was actually Bender who changed his sex. They dated, and he asked Coilette to marry him. On the wedding day, Coilette faked her death, having suffered of African Hydraulic Fever. Calculon then starred in Coilette: A Calculon Story to honor his old love's memory (4ACV13).
He is a member of the League of Robots and, for a time, was its president. Under his leadership the organization remained lenient on it's official human-killing plank. After Bender joined in 3008, and was caught helping his human friends escape during Yivo's universe-wide mating (despite his frequent anti-human tirades), Calculon and the rest of the League mocked Bender (TBwaBB). Bender challenged Calculon to a duel and won, vaporizing Calculon's arm. Calculon resigned his leadership in the organization.
In 3010, he was directing a disaster film, but most of the props and the actors were presumably destroyed and killed in a real disaster in shooting the first scene (6ACV08).
In 3012, Calculon consumed a bottle of food colouring, which is fatal to robots, in an attempt to defeat Langdon Cobb in the World Acting Championship. Despite his sacrifice, Cobb still won the championship.
In 3013, Fry and Bender set out to bring Calculon back from the dead, due to their mutual disliking of the inferior robot actor who replaced Calculon on All My Circuits.

The cast of the show, Fry, Leela, Bender and the executives are hugely impressed and tell him he must take a bow. As he bends over, he pulls the prop rope, pulling a large lighting rig crashing down, missing Calculon narrowly. However, just moments after, another part of the stage above comes flying down. It crushes Calculon, and he is killed instantly, as the crowd looks on horrified. In honor of Calculon 2.0, his star on the walk of fame was reinstated. Calculon 2.0's wish of dying knowing he was a great actor who was adored again was fulfilled, and Calculon 2.0's spirit went back to Robot Hell to spend eternity, much to the Robot Devil's dismay.
