The second season of Robot Chicken, created by geek-god Seth Green, continues the stop motion, action figure starring insanity that made the groundbreaking first season of the show so entertaining. If you enjoyed the first season of the show, you should know what to expect here: skits ranging from Star Wars to classic TV shows and cartoons, to politically charged moments, celebrity-aimed knocks, to just plain blink and you miss it insanity. However, there are some misses to this season, including a segment starring both Corey Haim and Corey Feldman as themselves, which is almost painful to watch. The good however, greatly outweighs the bad, as we see a crazed Ted Turner (not voiced by himself) masquerade around as Captain Planet, Barney the purple dinosaur looking for love, Castro playing "Dance, Dance, Revolution", a fantastic Highlander spoof starring the current day teen queens, and plenty, plenty more to boot. Also like the first season of the show, there is a horde of voice talent to be found with the second season of Robot Chicken, including Green, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Scarlet Johansson, Charlize Theron, Paul Rudd, David Hasselhoff, Seth MacFarlane, Christian Slater, Phyllis Diller, Breckin Meyer, Miguel Ferrer, Dana "Master Shake" Snyder, Dan Milano, Alex Borstein, Mila Kunis, Michelle Trachtenberg, Ginnifer Goodwin, Macaulay Culkin, Bruce Campbell, Peter Gallagher, Emma Caulfield, Melanie Griffith, Gene Simmons, Jimmy Kimmel, Sarah Silverman, Weird Al, Kelly Hu, Roddy Piper, and Hulk Hogan. There's a great selection of special features to be found on this two disc set, and yes, like it says on the cover, season two of Robot Chicken is uncensored, and even funnier than you may think it would be without the bleeps. All in all, even for casual Adult Swim viewers, season two of Robot Chicken is a must own.

The Archie sketch is deleted from the "Veggies for Sloth" episode. Yep, another sketch gone because of legal trouble, just like the Teen Titans sketch from season 1. Also, some of the episodes still have bleeps in them, and are not truly uncensored like the box says. Other than that, the dvd is good.

Great DVD set for Adult humor. These will be considered classics in the future. The DVD's are great quality and but wish that they could have a break from the opening sequences and just play the skits that way they can get more on a single DVD that way.

For those of you who don't already know, Robot Chicken is a 15 minute long stop-motion animation series that airs on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim. The show's animation and writing is a big part of why this show is so awesome. This DVD includes all 20 episodes of the second season of Robot Chicken on two discs and includes some great special features.

Robot Chicken Season Two is hilarious from beginning to end and is definitely a great addition to any collection.

You can't do that on television??? Robot chicken does. For us adults with ADHD this is a perfect dvd. Random parody clips from the late 80's early 90s. Perfect for us 20+ year olds that don't want to let go of our youth. Rock on Seth Green.

I still love Robot Chicken but I don't think season one can be topped. Good Luck Seth Green.

If you thought it couldn't get any better, wait until you see it uncensored. Absolutely hilarious!!!

I can't say enough for this series! I laughed so hard at the 'Star Wars' parodies, I gave myself an asthma attack! Seriously, it brings to mind the scorching, dead on satire of Mad and National Lampoon magazines in the '60's and '70's, such as the Barbie and Ken reality photoplays. RB's creators have given us a brilliant variation on the art of social as well as political satire. The flight-suited George Bush doll says it all. And, all the while you watch this, no matter how good the writing or the artwork, you still see in the back of your mind a bunch of grown men playing with their 'collectable' toys. And that's what makes Robot Chicken such a hit!

I stumbled upon Robot Chicken late one night while flipping through channels. I've been hooked ever since. I didn't see much of this season before I bought it and the main reason I bought it was for the Star Wars sketch when the Emperor gets a phone call from Darth Vader. That bit pretty much sums up everything about Robot Chicken for me. Clever takes on "what if" scenarios from popular cultural items. I love that it picks on a lot of the stuff I grew up with. I'll admit that Robot Chicken isn't for everyone, but I find it hilarious. Only reason I gave it 4 stars is because the Star Wars DVD was funnier and that's the barometer I compare all Robot Chicken stuff to.

I watched a couple of episodes on TV... and laughed a lot.. decided to get the CD... watched it for a while... laughed a little... but really think this cd should be watched with a group of people... some of it is funny.. some not so funny... I feel that I could have spent my money elsewhere for better value..
