Seth Green's zen, and the art of making "Robot Chicken"

If you've never wondered about the web of legalities and social landmines Seth Green tumbles through to make Robot Chicken, then he considers his job complete. Since premiering in 2005, Robot Chicken has won 6 Emmys and a die-hard following that's kept the show around for 11 seasons. But creating jokes around popular pop culture characters adds a legal filter to his creativity. On top of that, as the social and political landscapes have become increasingly thorny, Seth is contending with what role a show like Robot Chicken plays in reflecting the world back at itself—he’s also figuring out how to stay calm and carry on through it all.
