Adult Swim here. Fear not, Smut Police, we’re nothing to do with aquatic monkey business, but everything to do with bringing the funny. We’ve been asked by the guys at Playstation Home to tell you about our show, Robot Chicken, currently spooling its way across the screens in the Home cinema. Apparently. (You’re going to have to bear with us a bit with the lingo here; we’re not from round these parts.)

In the unlikely event you internet-savvy types don’t know it already, Robot Chicken is an Emmy-grabbing, toy-mangling, mick-taking, celebrity-baiting, stop-animation sketch show by comedy genius Seth Green – y’know, the actor who plays Dr Evil’s son in Austin Powers and provides the voice for Chris in Family Guy and played a (pretty wussy, let’s be honest) werewolf in Buffy. Yeah, that guy.
Robot Chicken is one of Adult Swim’s top-rating shows. We figured we’d put it out there in Home because, well, why not? After much vigorous debate, we chose a scene from Robot Chicken Star Wars because we love a good ‘Your momma’ battle — and so did Mr Lucas — plus a few more classic Robot Chicken skits. We hope you enjoy them, but please don’t ask us how to get there; we’ve no idea.
Anyway, go check us out. Adult Swim’s Robot Chicken: down the rabbit hole, past the fat guy stuck in the internet and over gravity’s rainbow. Or something.

Hi West1980
Yep, it’s ‘just a video’ in the Home cinema from adult swim (we make animated comedy).

Dont get what it is.
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:34 pm by Michelle Olley
Hi xchris2008x
Robot Chicken is the name of a stop-motion animation comedy that is up in Playstation Home right now, in the cinema. That’s pretty much all there is to ‘it’. We think it’s funny. Maybe we should’ve paid more attention in school though…

Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:37 pm by Michelle Olley
Hi DANTHEMAN121,
Thanks mister. We aim to please (up to a point).
That would be pretty excellent if we could/did do outfits. What do you have in mind?
15
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:36 pm by wbrinkman
Well done, like many I didn’t understand anything of what you wrote about. You’re a copywriter?
Anyway, where in Europe are you having your Robot Chicken show getting broadcast?
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:43 pm by Michelle Olley
Hi Wbrinkman,
No, I’m not a copywriter. Can’t you tell?
Robot Chicken is on TNT in Germany. Is that channel available to you?

hey what about are suprise today? remember in the q&a we was told we would get a suprise today! are we still getting it? sorry had to go off topic then.

Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:40 pm by Ti_dus
That’s cool
I’ll watch it later 
THX

Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:44 pm by Dante_Zero
um is this the only update? not being funny but if your a fan of robot chicken youve probably already seen this stuff a gazillion times. is the surprise that was mentioned on the Q&A thread cause if it is i think i might have just died a little inside as i know i will have the same feeling later today once the stores been updated with rubbish or nothing of use. fifa demo’s coming today courtesy of EA but i would like to know if theres gonna be any point of going into the store today because its highly unlikely that my what new? is gonna be updated it cant even tell me that the last thing i played was Arkum Asylum and give me ads for thing ive already purchased.( shatter, Fat princess )

Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:48 pm by Michelle Olley
That’s the plan, yes. Hope this info doesn’t spoil anyone’s ‘surprise’…
21
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:47 pm by DANTHEMAN121

Thanks for the reply n keep it kools

Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:47 pm by xchris2008x
Thanks for the reply Michelle.
ill check it out once Home is back online.
23
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:48 pm by Roxas598
are you going to be showing full eps on home?
that would be awesome!
“Darth vader thinks he can choke people” :Lol:
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:59 pm by Michelle Olley
Hi Roxas598,
This is a ‘yes and no’ kind of answer:
We have full eps on our website: adultswim.co.uk
The deal with Home is, we’re doing exclusive compilations/edits.
24
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:50 pm by Apnomis
LOL great post, it really made me laugh!!! Especially your directions to Home!
I’ve never seen Adult Swim, but if it’s as witty as this then I’ll make sure I check it out next time I’m in Home. I’ve always had a very dry sense of humour.
I just hope it uses proper streaming (like the new iPlayer) rather than the horrible “download first; watch later” system the Home screens have used in the past. I also hope one day we will get the proper social experience that they have in the US, instead of having to watch things on your own…
25
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:53 pm by KAP
Ok so the “surprise” was this?……….. . . scee pleeeeeeeeeeease sort it out.

Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:54 pm by Silent_Gig

Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:03 pm by Michelle Olley
Aw shucks, thank you Silent_Gig. Adult Swim ‘lives’ online in the UK at adultswim.co.uk joinnnn usssss

Thanks guys

not really a RC fan mostly because its not on british tv
29
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 12:57 pm by west1980
omg robot chicken video is the suprise? please tell me I am dreaming!
30
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:00 pm by mcwildcard
RC is on British TV hedges, but only late night on Bravo, which is a Sky/Cable only channel.
Little bit OT, but it’s probably the only opportunity I’ll get to ask you adultswim guys directly…
When is season 4 of Venture Bros going to be premiered in the US?
Also, is there any chance season 2 and 3 will be released on DVD/Blu ray over here soon?!
Thanks!
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:13 pm by Michelle Olley
Hi mcwildcard,
The honest answer is We’re Not Sure Either at the moment.
For Venture Bros., our advice is: keep an eye on the message boards on Adult Swim’s website in the USA – surprisingly often this is where release dates pop out first.
Adult Swim isn’t on Bravo any more – we’re currently showing full episodes online in the UK (though we’re in other ‘not-the-telly places too – but you don’t want us to go all ‘selly selly’ on you, so we’ll stop there).
There are no plans for Venture Bros. 2 & 3 to come out in 2009 on DVD/BluRay – but who knows about 2010 – if there’s a will (from Venture Bros fans) there’s a way…

Never heard of robot chicken so but sounds mad enough that it will be something i like, will deffo be checking it out.

@ Michelle Olley
Thanks for venturing into the lions den.
Also, thanks for taking the time to answer some questions. Most post and run, I can’t blame them.
@ Everyone asking about the Surprise
It’s a FREE Dynamic Wipeout HD theme.
33
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:05 pm by Apnomis
@ KAP (and others), no this is not the surprise, does this look like the store update? Mike Kebby will reveal the surprise when he’s ready.
I’m getting tired with the attitude that has developed on this blog whereby if someone says something is coming, everything else in between gets abuse and rated down for no other reason than it not being the particular piece of content they were waiting for!
It was the same with all the articles in the run up to the FW 3.0 FAQ. Stop being so impatient and highjacking other articles that are clearly nothing to do with it! The Store update will be here when it’s here…
34
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:06 pm by Roxas598
Ah i get what your doing
Some Robot chicken Shirts would be awesome
Oh or a chicken suit!

Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:09 pm by daffycare
just watched it really funny you’ve put me in a good mood today cant wait to see more of these thank you
36
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:10 pm by GhostViper
How often will there be new episodes?
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:17 pm by Michelle Olley
The plan is every two weeks. Wish us luck with that one…

Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:20 pm by mmb
The Real World: Metropolis is quite possibly one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen!
Robot Chicken in Home? I approve!!

Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:21 pm by fleinn
Great news. All hail Robot Chicken!
39
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:23 pm by start-the-dance
This is awesome. Hopefully the future will bring some Sealab and Harvey Birdman too. (cough)And hopefully full episodes on the store too(cough)
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:29 pm by Michelle Olley
Hi start-the-dance,
The deal is we’re going to be doing best-of type compilations on Home – but if you want full eps we do have them at our website: adultswim.co.uk – and you’re in luck – there’s Sealab 2021 AND Harvey Birdman showing this week. Good times.

I love Robot chicken. Nice getting to see it in a legal way. (i did not even know that it was on in germany)
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:48 pm by Michelle Olley
Hi mmatzat,
yep – we’re on TNT. And we’ve just launched a German website too: http://www.adultswim.de
All Perfectly Legal…

any chance of having a word with seth mcfarlne about streaming episodes of family guy into home aswell. that would be fricking sweet. they show them on hulu for free in the states how good would it be if it was in home. i garuntee it would be a massive hit with everyone if you could go into the home theatre and watch family guys back catalogue.
Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 1:42 pm by Michelle Olley
You’re probably right about that Dante_Zero – we love Family Guy too. That’s something for Sony to get on to, rather than us. Seth McFarlane’s specially trained team of flying attack monkeys would probably head us off before we got anywhere near him…
Having said that, it’s possibly worth mentioning that we’ve got a pilot of an early Seth McFarlane show, Larry & Steve, going up on our website next week. Gawd, we’ve been doing a shocking amount of website plugging in these comments. We can only apoligise – it’s probably due to low blood sugar…

That reminds me, how about a Phil Ken Sebben statue/outfit for Home? His greatness knows no bounds.

Posted on 10 September, 2009 at 2:02 pm by SiRobertson
Gotta love Robot Chicken, especially when it’s deep fried in a spicy tortilla wrap, with a large portion of chips, and beer.
It would be great to see a Robot Chicken space in Home, the gaming possibilities would be endless… as would crazy avatar costumes!
