Season four starts up Sunday at 11:30 PM Eastern. What has the show accomplished so far? It is currently the highest rated AS original on the network. Its made it to 61 episodes, making it the second longest original series on the network. Plus, its made two Star Wars specials and both are very successful.

The good:
-The spoofing of Family Guy cutaway jokes
-The Parappa sketch
-Trojan Man ruining a relationship
The bad:
-Some sketches (i.e. the opening sketch, "Cut to the Good Parts") went on for too long

Well I liked this one.
-Yeah, that's basically how a Battlestar Galactica episode gets made
-Man, Seth McFarlane is awesome!
-"Kill your parents, Tracey" Not only was that funny, it just made me completely go WTF! since I had no idea that was coming
-I MISS PARAPPA THE RAPPER!
-I can't help but feel that the "Just the Good Parts" sketch was inspired from the Nostalgia Critic's 5-second movies.
On another note, congratulations, you all now know the plot to "The Shining".

This episode actually made me laugh. Liked the opening sketch and "Just the Good Parts". I also like how each season premiere besides One has a continuation of the previous season's finale.

- Yay, Joss, RDM, and Seth!
- First time I've seen Parappa in ages.
- :lol: at Trojan Man and T-1000 Tequila.
- But that "Cut To The Good Parts" sketch wasn't really that funny.
Wow, I haven't seen an RC as consistently good as this in a long time.

Excellent episode. I especially loved the Parappa and Trojan Man skits. This felt on par with Season 1 where the majority of the skits were flat out hilarious. Along with RC Star Wars Part 2 (much better than Part 1, IMO), it looks like Robot Chicken is back from jumping the shark.

I have to say that was a pretty good episode.
Parappa the Rappa sketch had in stitches and made me play it a lot of time over. "It can't be a crime to kick a dope Rhyme"
Trojan Man interupting a couple having sex, I thought that was odd campaign, I thought that someone would walk out of that in those ads those.

I am actually shocked Tequila did her own voice, because they really ripped her apart in that sketch.

Um, she's Tila Tequila. She probably had no clue the writers were tearing her apart.
*ahem* I was really, really surprised at how hilarious this episode was. Other than the "Just The Good Parts" dragging on too long there wasn't anything remotely wrong with the episode. It was just . . . good, classic Robot Chicken.

Well, "The Shining" and the ones where it showed the dog about to...you know representing the movie was good.

Awesome season opener. Other than the "Just the Good Parts"sketch running too long it was pretty much perfect.
Highlights:
-the powers of Seth Mcfarlane:D
-Parapa court lesson
(surprised to find out this bit was written by Geoff Johns of comicbook fame):eek: :D
-Trojanman :D :D

I Doubt Every Season Four Episode will Be An Out Of The Block Home Run Smash, But I'm hoping that least a few of them hit the quality of this one. There were some good sketches in the first three premiere eps but out of all the other seasons, season four starts the strongest. Probably because of the super star opening with Seth and Matt going around asking some of Hollywood's best from help, being critcized and shot by Joss Whedon, Criticzed and shot by Ronald D Moore (nice job pointing out the flaws of Battlestar Galatica) and then Seth MacFarlane pointing out Seth Green works on his show ("oh you think I could just live off hundeds of thousands dollars a year?) and renewing the show thanks to the power of FG cutaways like 3PO Pepsi points and Scooby Jew (is it just me, or is it sad RC can do better quick cutaways then FG?). The other main segments were also pretty good. Playing a bit of Parappa I could defintley get the style of him defintley himself in court and then being shot at and releasing a posthumous album. And then the Tila Tequila sketch of her being an andriod with 50 percent actual proper emotional contact and melting while talking about her new show season (though I dislike her as a person for her to play herself in that manner means she's at least somewhat a good sport about obvious criticms concerning her... well actual person). The ending sketch was the weakest though. There was some good stuff (like Wizard Of Oz, Peter Jackson's king Kong best parts being the visual credits and Seth Green being shot at the end) and I do like them making fun of the padding in trivia game shows and other stuff but it felt like the joke had already been done before. Since it had when Nostaglia Critic made those 5 second movies which had more of a point of summerizing each movie then these did. Oh well that's really the only weak part of the ep. This and the short segments (best being the guy in the clouds watching the couple on the hill, Trojan Man appearing and giving out condoms, the god=dog dog telling the kid to kill her parents and "the bullets from those silver could of fed my tribe for a year" one) all at least had a laugh in them which makes this one of the most solid RC ever yet. There have been some stinkers of RC but this is defintley a reason to keep watching the series. For me anyway (and I guess all of you as well).

Finally got around to posting in here. Anyway this premiere was excellent! A lot better than last years and just as great as the second season premiere which I also loved. Pretty much every sketch here was great. Like most people here my favorite was the beginning with Seth and Matt. Then there was Parappa the Rapper and Trojan man, it was all great. And better than a few of the season 3 episodes. Even though I still think season 3 was a pretty good season overall it was weaker than the first two but this season is off to great start.
Great job Seth and Matt!
