The Robot Chicken Walking Dead Special: Look Who's Walking is a unique and hilarious crossover between two popular TV shows - Robot Chicken and The Walking Dead. Produced by the renowned animation studio Stoopid Buddy Stoodios and aired on [adult swim], the show is a 22-minute stop-motion animated special that pokes fun at the post-apocalyptic zombie world of The Walking Dead.
The show features a variety of Robot Chicken's signature skits and parodies, including a hilarious take on The Walking Dead's beloved characters and storylines. The special brings together some of The Walking Dead's famed cast members, including Rick Grimes, Michonne, and Daryl Dixon, and places them in absurd scenarios that will have viewers laughing out loud.
From start to finish, the special is an entertaining blend of comedy and horror. The opening scene sets the tone with a spoof on The Walking Dead's iconic opening credits, complete with a stop-motion animated Rick Grimes (voiced by Andrew Lincoln) waking up from a coma in the middle of a chicken coop. This absurdity sets the stage for the outlandish scenarios to come.
One of the standout skits in the special is a parody of the "Clear" episode. In this episode, Rick Grimes runs into a madman named Morgan Jones (played by Lennie James) who has become unhinged after losing his family to the zombie apocalypse. Robot Chicken's version of this episode features Morgan fighting to survive against a world overrun by "Monster Energy Drink" zombies. This segment hilariously mocks the prevalence of product placement in modern television while simultaneously poking fun at The Walking Dead's notoriously gruesome content.
Throughout the special, viewers are treated to a variety of other skits that lampoon some of The Walking Dead's most memorable moments. One such sketch involves Carl Grimes, portrayed as a sulky teenager who is more interested in eating pudding than fighting zombies. Another memorable segment features Michonne attempting to figure out the meaning of a cryptic message communicated by one of the show's villains, The Governor.
In addition to the skits and parodies, the special also has several longer segments that play out as mini-episodes. One such episode features Abraham Ford (played by Michael Cudlitz) and Eugene Porter (played by Josh McDermitt) on a supply run to a convenience store that has been taken over by zombies. Things quickly escalate as the duo discovers that the store is haunted by the ghosts of all the people who died inside. The horror aspects of this segment are played up with plenty of jump scares and tense moments, but the humor quickly takes over as Abraham and Eugene break into a musical number fit for a Broadway show.
Overall, The Robot Chicken Walking Dead Special: Look Who's Walking is a fun and entertaining romp through the world of The Walking Dead. Fans of both Robot Chicken and The Walking Dead will find plenty to enjoy as the special pokes fun at the zombie genre, while still showcasing a reverence for the original source material. With its signature stop-motion animation style, hilarious skits, and playful jabs at the undead, the special is a must-watch for anyone looking for a new way to experience the world of The Walking Dead.
