Show within a show

So, we'll be splitting the characters out of this at some point. How should it be handled? These are all technically two characters. Calculon and Bender Bending Rodriguez cover two of the actors. Calculon's page has no info about the character he plays, do we also create Calculon (All My Circuits) for his character or put it in this article or his article. Furthermore the actors who play Monique, Human Friend and Antonio (1) may not share their names with the characters they play, and have rarely been seen out of character. Boxy is Boxy in both contexts. Then there's the other two unnamed acting units/AMC characters, at least one of whom is seen out of character more often than in, but neither of which have spoken.

Personally, I'm not sure given that we have a fair chunk of info about Monique (AMC) and almost nothing about Acting unit who plays Monique. If Futurama was about the lives of the AMC cast and crew, I'd say that both actor and character should definitely both have separate articles, but as it is, I'm not sure. - Quolnok 22:43, 13 April 2008 (PDT)

I see it this way, the only two characters on AMC we know's life outside the show is Calculon and Bender. Therefore, these can have separated articles. Monique, Human Friend, etc. are never referred to off camera. Not even when we see the shooting of the show in Bender Should Not Be Allowed on Television. Therefore, in my opinion, we could have Calculon (about the actor and his personal life) and Calculon (All My Circuits) (about his character's role on the show's life). But for characters like Monique and Human Friend, it would be simply Monique and Human Friend, since there are no article to confuse them with. It is worth mentioning in each article that we do not now whom played whom.
As for Bender, I would say the character he played on the show was "Bender" without the middle and surnames. So Bender (All My Circuits) would describe his character on the show. Brief though it be. To summaries, have separate articles for the actors/characters we have something separate to say about, and keep only a character article for those we only have something about their character to say about. --SvipTalk 06:43, 14 April 2008 (PDT)
Fair enough, though Monique and Human Friend's Actors were seen once together at the Oscars. But that's about it. - Quolnok 07:05, 14 April 2008 (PDT)

Special Episodes for All My Circuits

Like with Everybody Loves Hypnotoad, maybe we could add special episodes for AMC to the {{e}} template. E.g. like so;

{{e|AMC01}}
All My Circuits episode: "The Proposal" All My Circuits episode

Maybe we could add a number as well to the output. Opinions? --SvipTalk 12:33, 14 April 2008 (PDT)

All My Circuits Music at "Bender Should Be Allowed On TV"

Does anyone know what genre of music is the background theme heard at that episode of Futurama? Is there a way to get that or similar music from somewhere? (artists/bands/genres etc)
