Ep 19. Chipotle Miserables

Chipotle Miserables is the 19th episode of the seventh season of the stop-motion animated sketch comedy series, Robot Chicken. The episode humorously parodies a variety of pop culture references including movies, TV shows, and current events.

The episode begins with a parody of the musical, Les Miserables, titled 'Chipotle Miserables.' The sketch depicts a group of people who have all fallen ill after eating at a Chipotle restaurant and are singing about their indigestion and misfortune. Throughout the sketch, they lament about their painful symptoms and ultimately come to the realization that they should have just gone to Subway.

The episode also includes a parody of the popular board game, Monopoly, titled 'Monotony.' The sketch shows a group of people playing the game for an extended period of time, causing them to become increasingly bored and disillusioned with their lives. As the hours tick away, the players become more desperate and savage in their attempts to win the game, resulting in chaos and destruction.

Another sketch parodies the movie, The Revenant, with a twist. Instead of being attacked by a bear, Leonardo DiCaprio's character is attacked by a group of angry hipsters who take issue with his lack of beard oil and insufficient knowledge about obscure artisanal crafts. The hipsters proceed to attack him with their various artisanal tools, resulting in a brutal and comical fight scene.

One of the standout sketches involves a parody of the popular anime series, Dragon Ball Z. The sketch imagines what would happen if the characters in the show were forced to deal with mundane everyday tasks, such as grocery shopping. The characters, who are typically fierce warriors, are seen struggling with mundane tasks such as buying milk and navigating a crowded supermarket.

In another sketch, the show pokes fun at the current political climate in the United States. The sketch depicts a group of politicians who are so blinded by their own ideologies that they are unable to see eye-to-eye on anything. As a result, they resort to violence and pummel each other with various political totems such as flags and campaign buttons, while their constituents watch in horror.

The episode also includes a sketch featuring the TV show, Game of Thrones. In this parody, the characters from the show are depicted as children attending a playground festival. The sketch imagines what the various characters, such as Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen, would be like as young children, resulting in a hilarious and heartwarming segment.

Overall, Chipotle Miserables is an entertaining and hilarious episode of Robot Chicken that will have fans laughing from start to finish. With its blend of pop culture references and irreverent humor, this episode is sure to please both casual viewers and longtime fans of the show alike.
