Some "Robot Chicken" jokes take things a little too far. For this list, we’ll be looking at moments from the animated sketch that were shocking, over the top or in poor taste.
Transcript
00:00 That's not how key parties work.
00:01 Gosh, he's right, Sora.
00:04 What is this key party?
00:05 Welcome to WatchMojo!
00:07 And today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 times Robot Chicken went too far.
00:12 Have you any last words?
00:14 I know Jesus has forgiven me.
00:17 Is that a joke?
00:18 No.
00:20 For this list, we'll be looking at moments from the animated sketch
00:23 that were shocking, over the top, or in poor taste.
00:28 Have a different moment where Robot Chicken went too far?
00:30 Let us know in the comments.
00:32 Number 10.
00:34 Sunny Muffins.
00:36 A little girl frolicking through a field seems innocent enough
00:39 until she comes across a trapped pegasus.
00:42 Horsey!
00:43 Ah, thank goodness you found me.
00:45 Little girl, please set me free.
00:48 Don't move, I'll be back.
00:50 The animal asks the girl for help, who seems willing to do so.
00:54 However, things take a dark turn when she pulls out a pair of scissors
00:57 to cut the pegasus' wings, and then feeds him oats that cause him to black out.
01:03 Here, eat these magic healing oats.
01:05 Okay.
01:06 Oh, smells kind of funny.
01:09 Did you drug me?
01:11 As if the sudden shift in tone wasn't enough, when the horse awakes,
01:16 the girl informs pegasus he has a new name, Sunny Muffins.
01:21 When he refuses to accept the name, she whips him into complying.
01:24 Come on, say it.
01:26 Say your name.
01:27 What's your name?
01:28 Sunny Muffins.
01:29 What's your name?
01:30 My name is Sunny Muffins.
01:33 The brutal psychological torment coming from such a little girl is disturbing,
01:38 to say the least.
01:39 Number 9.
01:40 Cheerios.
01:42 Honey Nut Cheerios may not be everyone's go-to for cereal,
01:46 but its ads are bright and cheery with its well-known mascot, Buzz B.
01:51 He makes some Cheerios appear, much to the delight of two boys at the kitchen table.
01:55 Did somebody ask for a tasty breakfast?
01:58 Wow!
01:59 Nothing beats the taste of oats and honey.
02:02 In fact, one of them likes it so much he slams his fist on the table,
02:06 which inadvertently causes the bee to sting him in his arm.
02:10 If honeybees use their stinger, it can be fatal.
02:13 No, no, oh my god, no, this can't be happening.
02:17 While the boys assure Buzz everything will be fine,
02:20 the sad truth is that his life will come to an end.
02:23 He dies slowly in front of the boys as he describes his final moments.
02:27 It's so cold.
02:29 Oh, my heart.
02:31 I can feel it slowing down.
02:33 It stopped.
02:34 I'm so scared.
02:36 So much for being bright and cheery.
02:38 Number 8.
02:39 Raiders of the Magic Garden.
02:42 Due to the nature of the show, there isn't much need for set-up or context,
02:46 but this sketch features a parody of a 70s children's show,
02:50 The Magic Garden,
02:51 which featured two women who would sing songs and tell stories.
02:55 ♪ Oh, playmates ♪
02:58 ♪ Come out and play with me ♪
03:01 ♪ And we'll have fun, you'll see ♪
03:03 ♪ Climb up the magic tree ♪
03:06 This is mashed with the climax of Raiders of the Lost Ark,
03:09 when the story box asks to be opened.
03:12 It seems like the story box wants to tell us a story.
03:15 Let's take a look inside.
03:16 When the box is opened,
03:23 spirits come out and the two women are killed for having looked upon them.
03:27 However, there's no justification as to why they suffer such horrible deaths,
03:39 so it comes off as gratuitous.
03:41 Number 7.
03:43 Kermit Kong.
03:44 What at first seems to be a King Kong parody,
03:46 but with Muppets, soon reveals a more twisted nature.
03:50 A giant Kermit climbs up the Empire State Building with Miss Piggy in hand.
03:54 We'll rescue you, Piggy!
03:56 Get lost, you blue weirdo!
03:58 We're on a date!
04:00 He's attacked by fighter planes despite Piggy's cries for them to leave.
04:04 They spray Kermit with water, hitting him in the eye.
04:07 He falls to his doom, but the scene then transitions to the Muppet babies,
04:11 and we see that Kermit has fallen through a glass table.
04:14 When Nanny appears, she commands the Muppets to clean up the crime scene.
04:18 Obviously, this isn't the responsible thing to do,
04:21 as the young Muppets don't fully comprehend what happened to Kermit.
04:25 What about my Kermie?
04:26 He never loved you.
04:27 Now move, goddammit!
04:29 Number 6.
04:31 Kingdom Hearts Key Party.
04:33 If you're unfamiliar with key parties, this sketch will painfully bring you up to speed.
04:38 Xehanort demands Sora's key so they can get the party started,
04:42 but Sora refuses, preparing to fight.
04:45 I face too much loss and too many convoluted gameplay rules, Xehanort.
04:48 You want my Keyblade? Take it from my cold, dead hands.
04:51 However, we soon find out that the keys are for people to take at random,
04:56 and then get it on with that key's owner.
04:58 From there, more Disney characters pop up and start getting down to business.
05:02 Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!
05:04 Uh, guys? This feels inappropriate.
05:06 Sora, for his part, is not down and has made an unwitting participant in the whole affair.
05:13 There's even a moment involving Donald Duck under Maleficent's robe.
05:16 Less talking, more baking, you imbeciles!
05:20 [Squeaking]
05:23 We definitely could have gone on without seeing that.
05:25 Number 5.
05:27 Dave's Mercenary Warehouse.
05:29 Two guys are just hanging out on what looks like a calm evening when suddenly,
05:34 mercenaries burst through the door and proceed to wreck everything.
05:38 [Gunfire]
05:39 Oh my!
05:40 What the?!
05:41 [Screaming]
05:43 Ow!
05:44 Not only do they kill one of the boy's mothers,
05:47 but they bring in horses to pull one guy apart and they shoot the other.
05:51 We then find out these mercs were hired by someone else who was insulted for the backpack he wore.
05:57 That'll show you for making fun of my backpack!
05:59 All this senseless violence was for nothing as the mercenaries broke into the wrong house.
06:04 The whole sketch is an ad for a mock guns for hire service.
06:08 Well, come on down to Dave's Mercenary Warehouse.
06:10 We kill the right guy or your money back.
06:12 The level of aggression displayed is just way over the top for what it is.
06:16 Number 4.
06:18 Sailor Moon Confronted.
06:19 Serena is walking down the street when an unnamed villain approaches,
06:23 telling her Queen Beryl needs her life force to take over Earth.
06:27 Queen Beryl needs her life force in order to take over the planet Earth.
06:30 [Evil Laughter]
06:31 Serena, change into Sailor Moon quickly!
06:33 She quickly transforms into Sailor Moon and is ready to throw down.
06:37 Things become very awkward.
06:40 Very quickly, as Serena's transformation and moaning have made the villain aroused.
06:44 He apologizes profusely and even admits that it's disrespectful towards her.
06:49 I don't know why that happened.
06:51 Geez!
06:51 I'm so sorry! That is so disrespectful of me!
06:55 Sailor Moon questions if there's any point to fighting and both agree to go their separate ways.
07:00 The moment's definitely passed.
07:01 Alright, see you next time.
07:03 Yeah, sure, okay. Another time.
07:06 What makes this sketch even more disturbing is that Sailor Moon is rather young
07:10 and the villain comments that she's pretty hot.
07:13 Ick.
07:13 Number 3.
07:14 The Joker.
07:16 Batman catches the Joker and mercilessly punches him but stops himself from killing him.
07:20 The Joker points out that because of Batman's no-killing rule,
07:24 the Joker will be able to continue committing crimes.
07:28 That somehow means I win!
07:29 I go to jail, escape, kill people, go to jail, rinse and repeat.
07:34 Yes, it's an endless cycle but I've sworn to let the courts do their work.
07:38 To break the cycle, Batman testifies at the Joker's trial
07:41 where he ends up receiving the death penalty.
07:43 At his execution, Joker's strapped to the electric chair and suffers horribly
07:48 as it's revealed Commissioner Gordon didn't put a wet sponge on Joker's head.
07:53 But why, Fort Barbara?
07:56 The violence depicted is way over the top both when the Joker is punched by Batman
08:00 and even worse during the execution as his face quite literally melts off.
08:05 The most disturbing part is that Batman is the only person who isn't horrified
08:09 witnessing the Joker electrocuted.
08:11 Number 2.
08:15 Skylanders Trap Team.
08:17 This sketch is a twist on the video game Skylanders Trap Team.
08:21 But the Joker is as pretty tasteless as they come.
08:24 Bushwack decides he's going to take on Tough Luck in more ways than one.
08:28 Shut up, High Five!
08:29 If anyone's gonna conquer that kitty, it's gonna be me, Bushwack!
08:34 Axe to the max!
08:35 WhisperAlf uses a double entendre on the game's name to describe Tough Luck to Bushwack.
08:41 But Bushwack misunderstands it.
08:43 We trap bad guys and put 'em in jail!
08:45 Bushwack ultimately figures it out, but unfortunately, the term being used here is one used to denigrate
08:52 trans people.

09:07 Number 1.
09:10 Cuddles Fabric Softener.
09:12 You might want to turn away from this sketch as it's way over the line.
09:16 Viewers growing up in the 90s may remember fabric softener commercials featuring the
09:20 Snuggle Bear.
09:20 In this parody, a man doing laundry complains his clothes aren't "huggably soft."
09:34 Cuddles appears to say that he can make them feel "huggably soft."
09:37 "Leave it to me!
09:38 Being huggably soft is my business and business is good!
09:43 They are soft and so are you, Cuddles."
09:47 The man comments on how soft Cuddles feels to the point he soon becomes excited.
09:51 Things become very inappropriate as the man takes Cuddles to the bathroom.
09:55 The show is known for being shocking and offensive, but what it depicts here is way too much.
