Robot Chicken is the Emmy award-winning Swim sketch-comedy series with a merciless yet geeky sensibility. Their topics include Star Trek, DC Comics, Predator, The Avengers, King Kong, and many others. The writers are as geeky/wacky as you’d expect. Writer Tim Root even complains, “I’m one of the only writers in the writers’ room who follows sports … and nobody will know what I’m talking about.
