Convention - For The Love of Fantasy 2025 : Robot Chicken panel reunites Seth Green, Breckin Meyer, and Matthew Senreich in London

By Mulder, London, ExCeL London, 17 august 2025

The ExCeL London convention center became the stage of a unique reunion on August 17, 2025, as the long-running cult series Robot Chicken took the spotlight at For The Love of Fantasy 2025. Fans gathered for a special Q&A panel that brought together three of the show’s most important creative voices: Seth Green, Breckin Meyer, and Matthew Senreich. The panel was announced with a strong social media push from the organizers, who branded it a “Robot Chicken reunion,” and judging by the energy on the ground and the flood of online reactions, the description was entirely justified. While the event itself lasted around thirty minutes, its resonance for fans of Adult Swim’s flagship stop-motion comedy was far greater, with nostalgia, laughter, and admiration filling the room.

The convention’s official social accounts captured the spirit perfectly with a line that quickly went viral: “Did someone say Robot Chicken reunion? I know we did! How amazing was Seth, Breckin and Matthew at For the Love of Fantasy?” This short sentence appeared across Instagram, Threads, and Facebook, repeated almost like a chorus of collective joy. For longtime fans, it wasn’t simply about hearing behind-the-scenes anecdotes—it was about witnessing the creative trio together again, live, years after their collaborations first reshaped television satire. The buzz online mirrors the atmosphere in the hall: spontaneous applause, cheers at every mention of the show’s absurd sketches, and a sense of intimacy between the creators and their audience. Highlights from the session were later shared on YouTube under the title “For The Love Of Fantasy: The Cast of Robot Chicken (Q&A Panel),” offering at least a partial glimpse into the moment for those who could not attend.

Seth Green, who has voiced countless characters in the series, may have been coaxed into doing some of his iconic impressions, while Breckin Meyer likely leaned into his trademark humor, riffing off the crowd’s energy. Matthew Senreich, as co-creator and producer, tends to add perspective on how the sketches were built, the creative risks involved, and the unusual genesis of the show itself—originating from the satirical Twisted ToyFare Theatre photo comics and later evolving into the Emmy-winning television series we know today. Even without a detailed play-by-play, fan reactions point to a conversation filled with warmth, irreverence, and plenty of laughter.

The panel also came at a significant moment in Robot Chicken’s history. The series, which first aired on Adult Swim on February 20, 2005, had recently marked its twentieth anniversary with the release of The Robot Chicken Self-Discovery Special on July 20, 2025. Unlike its earlier decade of traditional seasons, the show has shifted to a format centered on one-off specials, a move confirmed by Seth Green in 2024 interviews. This change reflects both the evolving landscape of television and the desire to keep the series fresh without overextending its format. For fans attending For The Love of Fantasy, the timing of the panel couldn’t have been more perfect. It served not just as a nostalgic reunion, but also as a bridge between the show’s celebrated past and its redefined present. Conversations in the room reportedly touched on these transitions, underlining how the series continues to adapt two decades on.

Beyond the official updates, the true magic of the event was the chemistry between Seth Green, Breckin Meyer, and Matthew Senreich. Their camaraderie has always been one of the show’s strongest assets, and seeing them exchange quips in real time reminded fans why Robot Chicken has endured for so long. This was not a polished press junket; it was a gathering of creators and their community, one where the line between performer and fan blurred. Every laugh and every nostalgic nod to sketches featuring superheroes, cartoon icons, or action figure parodies reinforced the sense that Robot Chicken is more than a show—it is a shared cultural playground where absurdity reigns and satire thrives. The audience reaction made it clear: even in 2025, the legacy of a cyborg chicken forced to watch television by a mad scientist remains as vital as ever.

The significance of the Robot Chicken panel at For The Love of Fantasy 2025 lies in how it celebrated not only the creative ingenuity of its makers but also the enduring bond between the series and its audience. By reuniting its key figures on stage, the convention provided fans with an experience that was both nostalgic and forward-looking, cementing the show’s position in the pantheon of modern pop culture comedy. It was a reminder that what started as an experimental sketch project with toys and stop-motion has grown into one of Adult Swim’s most awarded and longest-running shows, shaping the humor of a generation. In London that Sunday, the applause was not just for a panel—it was for twenty years of irreverence, satire, and collective laughter.
