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.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The show films 60 frames per second, double traditional animation, which is why the chaos feels so viscerally unhinged.
Robot Chicken essentially created the template for modern adult animation's 'reference-heavy absurdist sketch' format that shows like Rick and Morty later exploded.
