Robot Chicken is original in the ways that there hasnt been any like it since Action League NOW! The great fact is the episodes are so incredibly random, yet they still happen to pull through and manage to be completely hilarious, without losing the viewers attention because of the entire random factor...
So read the rules and have fun posting... about the sheer random-ness that is Robot Chicken!less «

  I'll go first: "Austin Powers 4: Gotcha!" 1.Forrest Gump, Navin Johnson from The Jerk and some random guy are sitting on a bench. Forrest starts telling his story but then gets interrupted by Navin who starts telling his story. Then they get into a fight on who should tell the story. Then the guys says he doesn't really care about their lives. Then Joe Dirt comes and starts telling his story only for the guy to leave. 2.The teen trio from Bye Bye Birdie sings the Conrad Birdie theme song only to be interrupted by the king from Spamalot who tells them to stop singing. 3.In a parody of the end of the Gary Sinise version of Of Mice and Men, George has a flashback of him and Lennie's secret gay relationship while being on the train. 4.Kids are playing Musical Chairs and all the kids get into chairs except for the black kid. This prompts Al Sharpton to jump out of the bushes and accuse the game of being racist. 5.The dinosaurs from The Land Before Time get hit by a comet. 6.The MST3K guys are watching a bad movie and making fun of it only for an usher to come and tell them to be quiet because they're annoying the audience. 7.A Stereotypical gangsta black couple drives up to Valley Lodge from "Manos: The Hands of Fate". 8.The Simpsons and The Griffins get into a bloody fight when they meet in a studio at FOX. 9.The executives at Adult Swim try to find a new show but all of the scripts they read suck so they figured out there's only one way to find one to put on the air...they smoke pot. 10.The band from That Thing You Do! is practicing in a garage only for the king from Spamalot to come in and tell them to stop singing. 11.The stereotypical gangsta black couple walks into Dr. Frank N'Furter's place. 12.Willy Wonka reveals to Grandpa Joe and Charlie that he's Michael Jackson. 13.Betty from Revenge of the Nerds keeps putting Lewis in stupid stunts like being blast off in a rocket, running around naked on campus, farting in front of everybody at class, and lighting his own fraternity on fire, saying she will go out with him if he does that. After he does all those pranks, it turns out she was lying. Then he tells her she was a biotch anyways and goes out with the girl from the party. less «

  4.5 Poor

  WTF hide « show »

  Robot Chicken is another pointless and for empty headed disabled little kids who think this crap is funny. The storyline is mainly about..Theres no storyline in this show. It's only about random annoying s*** that's not funny. The first time i watched this show, i was 12 and thought it was funny. When i started getting older, it was nothing but pointless garbage. I can't believe i bought the first season of this. I use to like this show alot but one day, i didn't like it no more. I tried watching some new episodes, but look's like the cast is running out of ideas. Overall this show sucks.

  Do you agree?

  A waste. hide « show »

  I really have to say that this isn't the worst show on Adult Swim. But it is really an uninteresting and boring show that has no good comedy to it. I must say that I can only recall one show that is actually funny at the network and Robot Chicken is not it. I don't like the humor very well as it seems like you have to be a die-hard fan to understand it. That or be easily entertained. Overall, this is really not a show in which I would ever watch again. Maybe it will be better, but not now. Thank you.

  So much Randomness hide « show »

  Okay the show makes abosolutley no sence, but thats okay Ren and Stimpy made no sence and it became a hit.
  
  The show is hillarious and will difinetly intest people how like to watch stop motion animations, randomness, and outrageously funny and sick humor.
  
  There are so many scenes in one episode that it is hard to find a part in an episode that you didn't like.
  
  Star Wars fans will love the star wars parodies that the show has to offer, coming from the true Star Wars geek himself Seth Green.
  
  So any questions... No you put your hand down this second!

  this show is HILARIOUS....... hide « show »

  Adult Swim and Sony gave birth to Cartoon Network's (or Bravo or Teletoon, where ever you live)Highest rated show on the network. I give you, Robot Chicken.
  
  Previously known as "Sweet J Presents.." on Sony's old website Screenblast, this show is from the minds of Seth Green (known for playing Chris on the popular Fox show Family Guy) and Matthew Senreich (he did something at toy-fare) and there love for action figures. It's a sketch comedy cartoon that does mostly parodies on pop culture, celebs, kids shows, and Toys. It's like family guy but with out a plot. The show is inspired by a dish on the menu of a west Hollywood Chinese restaurant.
  
  The animation is perfect. Kind of like ActionLeagueNOW!'s chuckamation but cleaner and tighter. They use action figures, toys, and clay.
  
  I far as I know, there's now recurring characters in Robot Chicken other than robot chicken, the mad scientist, and the nerd. And the dialogue is good to. A lot of laugh out loud moments in the series.
  
  The Sketches are Funny. More of a stupid funny if this is your first time watching it. As I said, the sketches parody a lot of pop culture icons and have a fair amount of guest stars. For people who like mostly satire and dark comedy this show is full of it.
  -----------------------------------------------------
  Overall:A+
  I don't why people say the show is stupid and a complete wast of time. It became an underground hit, getting nominated for three Emmy's and it is the highest rated original show on adult swim. This is a much watch.
  
  (NOTE: sorry if this review is kind of boring. I'll try to spice it up next time.)
