Synopsis

A series of pop-culture parodies using stop-motion animation of toys, action figures and dolls. The title character was an ordinary chicken until he was run down by a car and subsequently brought back to life in cyborg form by mad scientist Fritz Huhnmorder, who tortures Robot Chicken by forcing him to watch a random selection of TV shows, the sketches that make up the body of each episode.

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
J-bot6 When this show's skits are good, they're generally really good.However, there's an unfortunate tendency for shows like this to eventually degrade into unfunny territory. You can generally tell when the gross-out jokes start to outnumber the legitimately funny ones. This same issue plagued Aqua Teen Hunger Force as well. Likely it's a result of writers getting too used to each other in an insular environment with few trusted people to check or critique their work.Having said that, Robot Chicken is a fantastic show for people who know and love their pop culture references. Stop-motion is the ideal format and the patience of the animators is very much appreciated.Well worth a look.
Do-I-Give-A-Crap I love this show so much, I just have to watch it every night! I loved the SpongeBob scene where SpongeBob points out that Mr. Krabs was feeding the animals their own species. He then says nothing disgusting happens to a sponge then gets p*ssed off when they showed an extremely fat man getting scrubbed by a sponge. I also liked where they spoofed the Biggest Loser and renamed it "The Fattest Fat Loser", little elves got attacked by Cookie Monster and stood up against him by feeding him cookies until his belly popped, and they also make the Strawberry Shortcake girls act like they're black, especially their fan made character, B*tch Pudding (Not racist). So this show deserves a rocking 10/10!
vfrickey This is a clay-mation sketch alleged comedy series whose only virtue is irreverence. Yeah, their irreverence is way cool - for eighth graders.Eighth graders would have done a better job than "Robot Chicken." It's politically preachy in a way that might have helped American voters make the biggest mistake they've ever made in a Presidential election TWICE. I didn't mind the wicked sketches about Bush. What was ridiculous was the lack of ANY sort of balance - any recognition that John Kerry and Barack Obama are just as ridiculous in different ways, and just as unqualified to be President of the United States. Robot Chicken would have done this country a real service if they'd been every bit as caustic and biting about Bush's predecessor, his opponent in the 2004 election, and his successor. Millions of people who lost insurance coverage as the "Affordable Care Act" (THERE'S a joke for you) went into effect would have thanked Seth Green and Matt Senreich if they'd just treated Obama the way they did Bush.There's plenty of material for wicked, absolutely tasteless humor in Benghazi, Obama's spiritual "God Damn America" adviser (and the press' "nothing to see here, folks" reaction to a Presidential candidate who sat in the pews and lapped up racist vomit spewed from the pulpit of his church FOR 20 YEARS); the sketch about "Operation Fast and Furious" just about writes itself, as does the one about Attorney General Eric Holder getting his cues on how to be the nation's chief law-enforcement officer from the Nixon Administration playbook.The ultimate Obama sketch would have showed him in Wicked Witch of the West drag giving the Flying Monkeys of the IRS union their marching orders to drag in every Tea Party and conservative organization in the country - and their little dogs, too. But maybe that's over the heads of Seth Green and Matt Senreich.So... apart from Robot Chicken being a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Democratic Party, the sketches themselves are the very worst sort of sophomoric humor - actually, I've coined the term "freshmanic" for humor that doesn't even come up to the standard of "sophomoric" Robot Chicken is freshmanic humor, gleaned from the drawings on the covers of the algebra notebooks of every dumb football jock who ever lived.You can DO irreverent humor that's smart humor. Monty Python showed us how it's done, and they are no fonder of George W. Bush than the makers of Robot Chicken. I like Monty Python, even though their smartassery about American politics has that rotten, left-over from the 1970s smell. They still manage to be funny. And Robot Chicken sort of slouched into a dumb, patting themselves on the back sort of smarminess that just makes you want to puke. They stopped being funny toward the end of Season 1 (and I've watched them through the end of Season 2, when they were just boring, preachy, and insulted the intelligence of anyone who watched).
rusab_asher I am sorry to say but this show has not pleased my appetite of laughter . the ideas are good but they did not express them in a way to make me laugh. The animation could be improved a lot and the laughs in the show are another annoying aspect of this trying to be humorous show . After watching this show i found Alvin and the chipmunks FUNNY!!! trust me you may admire the ideas but its not so funny as to fill Urey appetite and I'm sorry to say that if you find this show funny you don't know the meaning of the word FUNNY its spelled F-U-N-N-Y!!!But I will say this that if every episode is made again with a little more animation and jokes are more funny then i would give this show what it has been actually given!!
