Joss Whedon Returns To ‘THE CABIN IN THE WOODS’ In This Week’s ‘ROBOT CHICKEN’

Due to its madcap style and short segments that range from five seconds to five minutes, Robot Chicken has probably spoofed more shows, movies, and pop-culture icons in its six seasons than Monty Python, SNL, and South Park combined.  Not to mention while doing them in a mostly successful and original style that is truly all its own.  I’m definitely a fan of the show and its stop-motion vignettes made up of some of my favorite action figures and toys from over the years.  Horror fans were quick to embrace last year’s horror sensation The Cabin in the Woods, but that’s not to say that the film is not a prime target for Seth Green and his team of writers.  The film and its co-writer Joss Whedon – you may have heard of him – will be the stars of the show when Robot Chicken airs its season finale this Sunday, Feb. 17.  To give you a taste of what’s in store, a preview has been released showing Joss Whedon as a zombie on the attack and poking fun at his unfortunate luck with network television; though I think we can all agree that S.H.I.E.L.D. may correct this streak of bad luck he has had.  Here’s hoping that they also make fun of the ridiculously convenient “Release All Monsters” button placed so apparently in the film.

Check out the synopsis of the episode and clip below.

In the finale episode, “Immortal,” the creators show what happens at the Looney Tunes hospital; We get a look inside the Oompa Loompa writer’s room; Jesus returns to his home in Heaven; The Robot Chicken Nerd switches places with the God of Thunder; The season ends with our writers giving a new twist on Cabin in the Woods.
