#THE ROBOT CHICKEN SWEET J PRESENTS MOVIE#

Green and Senreich cited the likes of Monty Python's Flying Circus, Pee-wee's Playhouse and The Kentucky Fried Movie as major influences for Robot Chicken. However, someone at Cartoon Network passed the pitch along to Adult Swim, around the same time that Seth MacFarlane told Seth Green and Matthew Senreich to pitch the show to Adult Swim. Some television networks and sketch shows rejected Robot Chicken, including Comedy Central, MADtv, Saturday Night Live, and even Cartoon Network. Sweet J Presents ended after 12 episodes and moved to Cartoon Network's Adult Swim in 2005 as Robot Chicken, premiering on Sunday, February 20, 2005. In the first episode ('Conan's Big Fun'), Conan O'Brien was a featured character, voiced by Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane (2005–present). The series first appeared as Sweet J Presents on the Sony website in 2001. The show was created, written, and produced by Seth Green and Matthew Senreich, and produced by ShadowMachine Films (Seasons 1–5) and Stoopid Buddy Stoodios in association with Stoop!d Monkey, Williams Street, Sony Pictures Digital (Seasons 1–5) and Sony Pictures Television (Seasons 6–10). The show's name was inspired by a dish on the menu at a West Hollywood Chinese restaurant, Kung Pao Bistro, where Green and Senreich had dined other ideas for the series' name included Junk in the Trunk, The Deep End, and Toyz in the Attic (many of these rejected names would be reworked into episode titles for the first season). Robot Chicken was conceptually preceded by ' Twisted ToyFare Theatre', a humorous photo comic-strip appearing in ToyFare: The Toy Magazine.
