Robot Chicken: Season Three (DVD)

A better overall season than S2....... The Star Wars special is particularly excellent.

You can't help but love Robot Chicken. The brainchild of Seth Green, Robot Chicken never stops being anything but funny, and the episodes featured in this third season collection are no exception. Featured here are more skits featuring your favorite subjects of nerd-dom, including seeing Soundwave from Transformers cope with being a boom-box in the modern day, a re-creation of a famous G.I. Joe battle, a 24-spoof starring Dracula, a chicken-fied take of Law & Order, The Shield's Vic Mackey joining the world of the Fantastic Four, He-Man getting murdered, a zombified Kool-Aid guy, and a more than memorable Christmas themed episode which is a highlight of the entire series, and features a vengeful nerd getting transported to Narnia among other vignettes. This season also isn't short on voice talent either, and features contributions from regulars Green and Breckin Meyer, as well as Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane, Mila Kunis, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Michelle Trachtenberg, Ginnifer Goodwin, Dave Coulier, Kelly Hu, Snoop Dogg, Emma Caulfield, Katee Sackhoff, Stan Lee, Hayden Panettiere, Donald Faison, Michael Chiklis, Chris Evans, Julian McMahon, Rosario Dawson, Skeet Ulrich, Mark Hamil, Masi Oka, Amy Smart, Billy Dee Williams, Malcolm McDowell, Matthew Lillard, Nathan Fillion, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon among others. The only flaws of the third season of Robot Chicken lie in the DVD itself, which is a little scant on special features compared to previous seasons. That aside though, Robot Chicken is still a hilarious blast, and you already know that this is an essential addition to your Adult Swim library.

With the third outing of Seth Green's Robot Chicken, once again a collection of random stop-action toy skits lasting about thirty seconds a piece, the animation is even more smooth and the funny ideas keep coming. They continue to plumb and parody ideas mostly from 80s toys with a few more modern references, so it helps if you know the period (MASK is a pretty obscure reference, as well as the non-lion Voltron). Yes, that is Stan Lee and the Micro Machines guy. At about ten minutes an episode, it's great TV for the ADD generation in small doses, and works well when you can see them together and pause at a few scenes.

My husband and I love Robot Chicken. The first time he saw the show he laughed so hard our neighbors in the next apartment woke up and started banging on the wall. Our only gripe with this third season is that it is uncensored. I never would have thought this was a problem, as it is an adult show, but dropping the F-bomb more times in a 15 minutes show than most R-rated films do makes the show less funny. It makes it seem like it's trying too hard. It's excessive and distracting. It was way funnier when all of the swear words were beeps. All of the nudity is also uncensored. This mostly consists of Barbie boobs which aren't erotic in the least. It was funnier when they were blurred out because it made it seem like it was something inappropriate, instead of a child's plaything.Some people might think we are just prudes that are offended by the language, but if that were the case, we wouldn't watch the show at all. My point is Robot Chicken was funnier when they didn't need so much uncensored language. The show can carry itself without it.

If you have seen my reviews on the past two seasons then you really don't need to read this. If you want to see you all your favorite toys and nostalgic posessions make fun of current events pop culture and hump one another. First buy the first two seasons watch, love and laugh and pick up season 3. It only gets better with season 3. Oh yes, the famous question 'where do I go from here?' need not apply with Robot Chicken.

I realize some things are legal here but not there and I do not drink so I can not say anything about watching drunk

Almost endlessly imaginative and hilarious! The robot chicken crew has again come through with beautifully-made figure-and-clay animation shorts that elevate, then skewer a mix of pop culture, dream life, and "real" life. You've got to see their take on the manger scene, or members of the Justice League of America living life between acts of heroism! Only Star Wars is sacred; everything else -- watch out!

A perfect blend of pop culture insanity!!! You can tell that the creators of this were 70's to 80's children. Crude stop motion animation is just fun as heck to watch! I've bought all 3 seasons released so far & the only "bad" thing I can say about any of the season sets is being upset when the last episode is over & I want more!

Was hier Seth Green mit enormer Arbeit auf die Beine gestellt hat kann sich sehen lassen!Keine Staffel wird langweilig und man freut sich direkt auf die nächste Episode! Lachen garantiert!Leider keine Bluray Auswertung aber damit kann ich leben!

Robot Chicken is at it again, but this time they are taking it to another level of wrongness.I got this for my birthday and have to say I am so glad. I am a big fan of the show because I am pretty sure it's greared towards nerds who played a lot of strange toys in there days. Which I am, but they seem to do it in away I never thought of when I was a kid.I don't have season 1 & 2 yet to own, but I recommend people getting there latest seasons and working backwards. Since I don't think there is a chronogical order to there madness. but I have seen all of season 1 & 2 on tv and have to say so far season 3 is great.

Ich freue mich sehr, dass die Veröffentlichung dieser genialen Serie endlich weitergeht. Ich hoffe die Staffeln 4-8 folgen bald.Die Laufzeitangabe mit rund 5 Stunden ist allerdings ziemlich daneben. Es sind nicht mal ganz 4 Stunden - dafür lohnt sich aber jede Minute.Leider sind diesmal keinerlei Extras oder Specials auf den Discs. Bild und Ton gehen völlig in Ordnung.

Season 3 of Robot Chicken is a must have for those that already own the first two seasons. It wasn't as "funny" as the first two IMO but it's still a great buy!

No issues with playback on multiple machines, case shows some wear but the price reflects that & I didn't purchase it for the case
