Overview
Robot Chicken is an American stop-motion animated sketch comedy television series that premiered in 2005. Created by Seth Green and Matthew Senreich for the Adult Swim nighttime programming block on Cartoon Network, the show features short, unrelated sketches that satirize pop culture, celebrities, and entertainment. The production utilizes stop-motion animation involving toys, action figures, and dolls. Each episode typically runs for twelve minutes. The title character is an ordinary chicken that is struck by a car and subsequently brought back to life in cyborg form by a mad scientist named Fritz Huhnmorder. This scientist tortures the character by forcing him to watch a random selection of television shows, which serves as the framing device for the sketches that comprise the body of each episode. Seth Green, Matthew Senreich, Mike Fasolo, Breckin Meyer, and Tom Root have been associated with the series, with Green and other writers providing many of the voices for the various characters depicted in the program.
