Wacky characters like The Blues Brothers, slacker rock fans Wayne and Garth, and neurotic Catholic school girl Mary Katherine Gallagher are now deeply ingra...
The show: Remember those stop-motion animation Christmas specials you loved as a kid? Robot Chicken is just like those, except for being the stuff that nightmares are made of, that is.

The show:Every week, comedian Eric Andre tries so hard to host a normal, everyday, late-night talk show. Somehow, it always goes horribly wrong with Andre usually finding himself hurt, destroying the set, or having a meltdown.
