Robot Chicken
Robot Chicken

2005 · Seth Green, Matthew Senreich · 11 seasons

A fast‑cut sketch series that lampoons pop culture using stop‑motion scenes built from toys, action figures and dolls. Its protagonist, an ordinary chicken struck by a car, is reanimated as a cyborg by the deranged scientist Fritz Huhnmorder, who punishes him by forcing him to watch a random assortment of television and media snippets. Each episode is a rapid succession of short parodies and sight gags drawn from that forced viewing.

With Seth Green, Matthew Senreich, Breckin Meyer, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Macaulay Culkin, Adrianne Palicki and Mae Whitman
