3''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken'' sketches are anywhere between six seconds and six minutes long, but since there are a lot of them, [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome a few of these moments are bound to be awesome]].
4
5----
6* Doc Brown enlisting Music/JayZ [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVZXc859iSo to help him power the Delorean]], complete with Creator/ChristopherLloyd himself providing the ad-libs.
7-->'''Jay-Z:''' Yo! It's the Roc!\
8'''Doc Brown:''' With the Doc!
9* In a parody of the scene in ''Film/TheDarkKnight'' when the Joker asks the passengers on the boat to make a SadisticChoice, the passengers are so busy brainstorming ways to avoid it that the Joker gets distracted, and [[ShutUpHannibal Batman hits him over the head]].
10** [[http://video.adultswim.com/robot-chicken/the-arkham-redemption.html Speaking of which]], in ''"The [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Arkham]] [[Film/TheShawshankRedemption Redemption]]"'' (where ComicBook/TheJoker is voiced by Creator/MarkHamill, already counting as a Crowning Moment for the show itself), ol' Joker pulls a ''hell'' of a [[ThePlan plan]], ''getting to'' '''''take a crap on Batman.'''''
11--->''"Forget about the Green Mile, try walking the BROWN MILE!"''
12*** [[http://www.adultswim.co.uk/videos/robot-chicken/joker-shawshank A link for European and British tropers.]]
13** The "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=peBHp9sAbhE Batman Smells]]" skit is another one as well. Three kids are singing the known parody of Jingle Bells... ''in Gotham City.'' Turns out [[RightBehindMe Batman and Robin are around]], and "ThouShaltNotKill" [[OhCrap is not in effect here,]] so they get their asses kicked and killed in a ''{{literal|Metaphor}}'' CurbStompBattle. Except it turns out it was [[AllJustADream all just a story...]] but [[ScareEmStraight the reason]] behind that makes it even more awesome, if only for the sheer audacity shown by the music class teacher.
14--->''"And the police didn't even investigate the children's disappearance because Batman is above the law. [[SarcasmMode But please Troy, keep singing your hilarious version of "Jingle Bells" and fucking up my Christmas program]]. [beat] No? Alright then, from the top!"''
15** The sketch where Batman finally finds a way around JokerImmunity by ''personally testifying against him'', leading to Joker losing his insanity defense and getting hauled off to the electric chair (where he receives an incredibly painful botched execution courtesy of Jim Gordon, [[Literature/TheGreenMile who removed the wet sponge from the chair]], as revenge for Barbara Gordon).
16*** On the Joker's side, he at least manages to get off [[DefiantToTheEnd one last defiant insult]] while being electrocuted to death.
17---->''"FUCK YOU, DORK KNIGHT!"''
18** A parody of some of the... [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks weirder villains]] in Batman's RoguesGallery, Palindrome is largely funny [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5F66JwLq90 for how lame the gimmick is]]. And then Batman implores the villain to become a force for good.
19--->'''Palindrome''': Do good? I? No. Evil anon I deliver. I maim nine more hero men in Saginaw. Sanitary sword a tuck Carol, I! Lo, rack, cut a drowsy rat in Aswan. I gas nine more hero men in Miami. Reviled, I? No na, live on I do. O' God!\
20'''Batman''': (''Gives a SlowClap'') Wow. [[SincerityMode That was impressive]].
21* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0lUz7Ga6fc A game]] of the original ''VideoGame/DonkeyKong'' getting hijacked by a team of [[VideoGame/HaloCombatEvolved SPARTAN IIs]]. [[CurbStompBattle That is all.]]
22* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iauuuhpSfRQ The opera]] based on ''[[Film/StarTrekIITheWrathOfKhan Wrath of Khan]]''.
23* "[[ChekhovsGunman Meet the]] [[SummonBiggerFish kite-eating tree]], ''[[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch you ugly son of a bitch!]]''"
24** Before that, Charlie Brown lampshades that Lucy pulls the football right before he kicks even when she says she's not gonna do it, but still goes for the kick, but in a twist. He delays the kick a few seconds, then kicks ''Lucy'' instead into the pumpkin patch, a good 20-30 feet away, getting revenge on her.
25--->'''Charlie:''' [[TheDogBitesBack That's for years of humiliation,]] [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch BITCH!]]
26* In the "Celebrity Rehab Invasion" skit that revealed most celebrities, such as Paris Hilton and Lindsey Lohan, were reptilian alien invaders, Paris is beating up George Bush when Barbara Bush informs her that she's killing George Bush Sr. Barb then completely kicks the ever-loving crap out of Paris, snaps her neck, and then tops it off by standing over her body roaring like a T-rex.
27** It turns out that the reason for so many celebrities' idiotic and bizarre behavior is because they've been drinking excessive alcohol to survive in Earth's atmosphere (except Creator/MelGibson, he's just an anti-semite). As such, the invasion is quickly defeated as not only are the invaders too drunk to fight properly, regular humans are perfectly resistant to drinking since we've been doing it for at least 10,000 years.
28--->'''Narrator''': From the moment the aliens drank our alcohol, they were doomed. [[Literature/TheWarOfTheWorlds For by the toll of a million beer blasts and keggers, man had earned his tolerance]].
29* Taken a bit literally in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5laK4qLm3kI "The Best 60 Seconds in Television History"]]. Ultimately subverted for the robot.
30* Mammy in the action/adventure remake of ''Film/GoneWithTheWind'', ''Frankly My Dear, I Don't GIVE A VAN DAMME!''
31* What happens if you die in Heaven? You go to Super-Heaven!
32* The 100th episode, [[http://youtu.be/M2Av-Y79Wqc wherein the Chicken gets free]], then goes on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge [[http://youtu.be/PzzqE7EPoIc against just about every original character from the show]]. Then he defeats the Mad Scientist who [[IHaveYourWife kidnapped the Chicken's wife]].
33** Fans will definitely agree that Bitch Puddin's fight against the Chicken can count as a CMOA as well. She gave the Chicken a hell of a fight while the rest got killed in [[CurbStompBattle on or two hits]].
34** All with, [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic Tales of the]] [[StockTrailerMusic Electric Romeo]] playing in the background.
35*** Even better - they LampShade the fact that the inspiration is from Film/TheProtector, with [[https://youtu.be/Bqw369ZskMk Tony Jaa]]. And just like the scene they're referencing, this one's TheOner, running uncut all the way for a similar solid four minutes, up until after the series creator's heads get splattered - which is astounding given the stop-motion animation effort put into the whole event.
36* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVzLzClY2E8 Ted Turner = CAPTAAAIIIN PLANEEEEET!!!]]
37* In the ''WesternAnimation/PunkyBrewster'' sketch, a now-adolescent Punky has been ignoring Glomer and starving him to death. When she demands that he magically give her boobs, he weakly obliges. But as a twist of karma, Punky's new boobs never stop growing (a reference to Creator/SoleilMoonFrye's [[TruthInTelevision similar case]]).
38-->'''Punky:''' Wait, what's happening?!?\
39'''Glomer:''' ''Choke on it, [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch bitch.]]''
40* GO! GO! [[Franchise/PowerRangers POWER]] [[WesternAnimation/YogiBear FOREST RANGERS!]]
41* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2LeETqAYtA Super Race]], if only for the sheer MegaCrossover aspect it has.
42* Franchise/GIJoe gets a new recruit, [[ButtMonkey whom they all mock]]. Angered, he proceeds to [[FaceHeelTurn join Cobra]] and [[TheDogBitesBack snipe]] [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge every]] [[LetsGetDangerous Joe]] except for Duke, [[CruelMercy so he will have to live with the pain and loss]].
43-->[[AppropriatedAppellation "It's Fumbles.]] [[WhosLaughingNow It was]] ''[[WhosLaughingNow always]]'' [[WhosLaughingNow Fumbles."]]
44* Dick Cheney [[Film/IronMan gets himself captured in Afghanistan]], and proceeds to... well.. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQeEyFzKyLg have a look]].
45* WesternAnimation/StrawberryShortcake beating the crap out of Purple Pieman and snapping his neck.
46* The Nerd dreams he's in [[Literature/TheWonderfulWizardOfOz Oz]], playing the role of Dorothy. [[GenreSavvy Quickly realizing he's in a dream]], he decides to [[DreamWeaver make it cooler]], and transforms Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Cowardly Lion into [[Franchise/TheCrow Eric Draven]], [[Franchise/{{Transformers}} Optimus Prime]], and [[WesternAnimation/ThunderCats1985 Lion-O]]. They kick everyone's ass (and Eric [[TalkingTheMonsterToDeath convincing a winged monkey to commit suicide]] makes it better). The Nerd then brings them all to a topless beach in France.
47* The new opening sequence for season six. The chicken takes the mad scientist's dead body, brings him back to life as a cyborg, and then straps him in the same chair he was stuck in for years. And to top it off, the chicken's got his wife by his side the whole time. Vengeance couldn't possibly be any sweeter.
48* Franchise/{{Barbie}} [[CurbStompBattle beating the shit out of]] [[Franchise/TheMuppets Miss Piggy]].
49* The sheer existence of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUNCfVTFbCU this]] advertisement for ''VideoGame/PlayStationAllStarsBattleRoyale'' done in the style of the show.
50* [[WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends Sir Topham Hatt/The Fat Controller]]: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UO0_8AuekPU action hero]].
51-->'''The Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt''': End of the line, fuckhead!
52* '''Anything''' with Santa.
53** One example is him killing the executives of Coca-Cola for profiting from his image.
54* It might have been disturbing and gory, but the Oz prison sketch got pretty awesome in the end when the scarecrow beats the ever-loving shit out of the prisoners. What makes it even better is as he's being strapped to the electric chair, he calls out to the cops "IF YOU ONLY HAD THE BALLS!"
55* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTcVNuNX8yY It ain't accurate, but it'll blow your fucking mind!]]
56* The Dick with a Time Machine becomes a hero when he shames and humiliates UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler by showing a video of him suffering severe diarrhea during one of his tirades, ruining any support for him and ending UsefulNotes/WorldWarII.
57* A scary detached voice decides to menace one of WesternAnimation/StrawberryShortcake's friends. That friend is Bitch Pudding. The voice never stood a chance.
58-->'''Detached Voice:''' Get out...get out of the house...get out of the house...\
59'''Bitch Pudding:''' Why don't ''you'' get your tongue out of your daddy's asshole so I can jam your momma's cock up there, you jizz-gurgling pile of monkey spunk?
60* As with the ''[=PlayStation=] All-Stars Battle Royale'' bit above, Nintendo got Robot Chicken to do bits for their [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTg2FHYatk4 E3 2014 event.]]
61* Bitch Pudding unloading on the gathered townspeople with a minigun after they attempted to murder her and threw a party celebrating her "death".
62-->'''Bitch Pudding:''' Blam.
63* [[http://youtu.be/mdEUwHF7d7I When the face is a prune, action goes BOOM!]]
64* The Chicken and the Scientist ''team up'' and save a few US presidents from the Scientist's son. That's right, presi''dents.''
65* In "Dengar on the Elevator", Dengar asks Bossk if he's done something special last weekend. Bossk says nothing special as we see a flashback of him [[OneManArmy singlehandedly]] takes out a hostage situation with his [[BareFistedMonk bare hands]] and [[CombatPragmatist a table]] against thugs armed with pistols. And when he apprehends the leader, he says this:
66-->'''Bossk''': [[BadassBoast You just got Bossked!]] ([[UseYourHead headbutts him cold]]).
67* A segment of "Western Hay Batch" shows Series/MrBill finally getting revenge on Mr. Hands and Sluggo. After flattening Mr. Bill with a rolling pin despite being warned not to, Mr. Hands remarks that his clay was not as flexible as usual. Mr. Bill then triumphantly reveals the reason: He is now composed of C-4. Mr. Bill then explodes, vaporizing Sluggo and blasting both of Mr. Hands' hands off.
68-->'''Mr. Hands''': Gee, Mr. Bill, your clay doesn't feel as squashy this week.
69-->'''Mr. Bill''': It's called C-4, [[PrecisionFStrike motherfucker!]]
70-->(BOOM!)
71* The puppeteering in "[[Literature/EmmetOttersJugBandChristmas Otter Murder]]" is so unbelievable, that one would be forgiven for mistaking the puppeteer for Creator/JimHenson himself.
72* [[WesternAnimation/WileECoyoteAndTheRoadRunner Wile E. Coyote finally catching the Road Runner.]] Then cooking him with a flamethrower.
73* One sketch shows a mother and her son in a grocery store. The son starts whining that he wants ice cream, causing the mother to snap and start spanking him. She then notices someone is looking at her. That person is ''ComicBook/ThePunisher'', who gives the mother a piece of his mind:
74-->'''Mother:''' What are you looking at?\
75'''Punisher:''' I guess I'm looking at a mother who's never heard of a time out before.
76* Leia tricking Darth Vader into blowing up Tarkin's home with the ''Death Star''.
77* The Enterprise-D night crew defeating [[YouWillBeAssimilated a Borg cube]] with the power of partying, (deservedly) getting a medal for it, and being asked by Captain "Sourpuss" Picard himself for a beer to join the party.
78* Literature/TheLittleMatchGirl averting the original story's EsotericHappyEnding by burning her {{Jerkass}} father to death, selling her grandmother's jewelry, and fleeing to a better life.
79* The ''Franchise/StarTrek'' sketch where the ''Enterprise'' crew finds that the ship's life support is about to fail and they can only send five members down to a planet below. Their first action [[NoPartyLikeADonnerParty is to eat]] the RedShirt they brought, who reveals that he was the only one who brought a phaser that he uses to kill and eat them instead.
80* Bitch Pudding becomes the new matriarch of [[Film/TheSoundOfMusic the Von Trapp Family]] after Hitler tries to draft Georg into his navy. At the talent show, she leads her family in singing profane insults to all of the Nazis in the audience, then slaughtering them for an "encore".
81* In a parody of ''Film/TheMatrix'', Neo uses his training to learn musical skills like whistling, scatting, and making his eyebrows dance, much to Morpheus's frustration. Later, he uses these skills to defeat the Agents, leaving Morpheus impressed and declaring that he is the One.
82* A spoof of ''Literature/TheHandmaidsTale'' sends Bitch Pudding to Gilead, where Aunt Lydia assigns her to have sex with "Commander Dylan". Bitch Pudding finds him shady just by hearing his name, especially after Lydia confirms her oddly specific accusations of him getting arrested for DUI at 19. Aunt Lydia and the rebellious handmaid proceed to engage in a knife fight, until Bitch Pudding [[EyeScream gouges out Lydia's eyeballs]].
83* In the ''ComicBook/ArchieComics'' special, Bitch Pudding plays Betty's sister Polly. When she finds out Reggie and the football team had been slut shaming her, she breaks into the boy's locker room and beats the tar out of all of them before she slams Reggie's penis in a locker door repeatedly.
84* [[Literature/HaroldAndThePurpleCrayon Harold]] and [[WesternAnimation/ChalkZone Rudy Tabootie]] battle in [=ChalkZone=], where they [[Main/ArtInitiatesLife bring their drawings to life]].
85* Urged to release remakes of his old movies, director Creator/StevenSpielberg combines all of his most popular movies into the ultimate blockbuster remake.
86* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPxWmbYV_bs Mafia-installed union reps]] are [[LetsGetDangerous brutally killed...]] by WesternAnimation/BobTheBuilder and crew.
