Robot Chicken
 
Anyone into this brilliant comedy series from Seth Green and Matthew Senreich? I thinks it's a funny series, with great jokes, and hilariously random channel flips. Seth and Matt should really be credited for this wonderful sketch show from [adult swim].

So, any favourites? Favourite sketch? Favourite quotes? Discuss here! :bloogrin:

I watch Robot Chicken but it never struck me as brilliant. I personally find that it feels amateurish when compared to other shows of its type. But I'd be lying if I said I didn't laugh really hard at some of its skits.
The Transformers spots are stand-outs for me. ("Megatron, requesting permission to buy it now!"8D) And it's great when they manage to get many of the original voice actors from the shows they're spoofing to reprise their roles. Frank Welker in particular.

My favorite is the entire Star Wars special, especally the skit with the Butt face guy who turned out to be a good dude.
"*In his language to Luke* Hey man I love your hair!"
"He says he doesn't like you!"
"*In his language* No I didn't!!!!"

Much like Family Guy, Robot Chicken's rapid fire assault of pop culture gags work most of the time, but of course there is the odd misfire once in a while.

And thankfully out of all the episodes I've seen, the good has far outweighed the bad.


And besides how can I really hate a show that gave us the unbridled brilliance that was the "Emperor Palpatine/Darth Vader phone call sketch"

"What the hell is an Aluminum Falcon?!"

My favorites so far are probably the He-Man/Skeletor ones, plus the one She-Ra one they did.

How could I forget that one? That is hands-down the #1 sketch in the entire show as far as I'm concerned. The runner-up would have to be when Optimus Prime gets prostate cancer. "So get your a** checked out before it's too late, turkeys!"8D

The Palpatine sketch was funny too.
"Or I'll tell everyone what a whiny b**** about Padameme or Panda Bear or whatever the f**k her name is!"...."Oh, he's crying!"

That is my all time favorite scene. That or the Yo' Mama part. "Yo' mama so stupid she thought Jar Jar comes with pickles pickles!" Classic. or should I say Vlasic... I can't believe I actually put that...

I also liked the 80's cartoon bad guys carpooling skit.
