I've just come here from the year 2087. Whatever you do, stop the Chicken of Tomorrow project immediately Unless you want your grandkids to be hunted by packs of carnivorous barnyard fowl.
I was watching a show on Netflix the other day which is called History 101. Which does 21 min long histories of various modern things. Such as GPS. Or, in the case of the one I was watching, credit cards. Early on it, to demonstrate the happy consumer spending of the fifties, it used several clips from things of the time. And imagine my surprise when one of them was from Once upon a honeymoon. The original not the mst3k version, thus no Mike and the Bots at the bottom. Didn't expect that to pop up anywhere
This is my favorite episode for two reasons. This is the best short, IMO. Also, Mike losing it about the old shopkeeper being so crotchety that it seems like he won't make it through the scene
Just to clear up this old controversy for all, the egg came before the chicken. It was laid by something that was not a chicken. It's evolution, folks, and that's all there is to it.
I _could_ make some pedantic, long-winded comment about how evolution is an incredibly gradual and painstaking process across countless generations and that there's really no hard line between Ancestor A and Descendant B and that some species undergo very little evolutionary change at all if they're well-suited to their environment... but it's just a show, we should really just relax!
"Fellow Poultrymen, our cherished freedoms are threatened from all sides." "I don't think I've got what it takes to be the Chicken of Tomorrow..." "I'd like to be the Chicken of Tomorrow, but how can I be more the Man of Today?"
"It's a bird! No, it's a plane! No, actually it is a bird! It's Superhen! Yes, Superhen, the Chicken of Tomorrow! This strange visitor from a distant henhouse..."
Amazing how much better the original was than the present version. It's not even close. Even though this was well into the original series run, this short was hilarious. They just don't have the same writing or delivery today.
A man was driving along the motorway when he noticed a chicken running alongside his car. He was amazed to see the chicken keeping up with him, as he was doing 60 mph. He accelerated to 70, and the chicken stayed right next to him. He sped up to 75 mph, but the chicken overtook him. Then the man noticed that the chicken had three legs. So he followed the chicken, speeding all the way, and ended up at a farm. He got out of his car and saw that all the chickens on the farm had three legs. When he spotted the farmer he asked him, "Where did you get these chickens?" The farmer replied "Well, everybody likes chicken legs, so I bred a three-legged bird. I'm going to be a millionaire." The man was impressed and asked him how they tasted. The farmer said, "Don't know, I haven't been able to catch one."
The last MST short to air on Comedy Central. Also one of the funniest.
Wow, that was one anemic-looking chicken in that oven. Thank goodness we figured out how to make the chicken of tomorrow!

They are not careful with those crates at all. Just tossing them on the truck like a sack of potato
Well they're headed to a Santeria group...so it only gets worse from there...
@@anotherworldviewispossible Seriously, the lucky ones were knocked unconscious or died on the way there.

Wonderful clean print here
The modern incubator provides everything a young egg might need---except a mother's love.
Funny thing, I was eating a chicken sandwich while watching this.
W.C. .....................you had the chicken of the day !!!!
winner winner!
One of my favorite shorts! :D

God I hate customers!
Those chickens don't know it, but they are in big trouble!!
Unexcpectedly educational!
The breeding farm huh? Is that what they calling The Mustang Ranch in Vegas now? Very clever 👏
The chicken-singing at the start was fantastic! (The rest was good too but the other commenters covered that well.)
I call bull on these being chickens from the future. They're not covered in tinfoil and wearing antennas that don't seem to do anything practical!

Uh, no.
@@princeofcupspoc9073 actually yes. Eggs existed long before the protochicken led to the chicken we see today
Alien eggs.

You have a time machine or a way to replicate it? No? You're just guessing? OK.
Eggs are complicated! They should cost like a hundred dollars each.
Well, with the avian flu hitting hard where I live, it sure feels like they are, these days XD
"Fellow Poultrymen, our cherished freedoms are threatened from all sides."
"I don't think I've got what it takes to be the Chicken of Tomorrow..."
"I'd like to be the Chicken of Tomorrow, but how can I be more the Man of Today?"
Angst grows among the chickens as a mash potatoes and gravy of tomorrow factory gets built next door.
NEEDZ MORE SNOW THRILLZ!!!
I want to be the chicken of tomorrow, but how can I be more the man of today?
"It's a bird! No, it's a plane! No, actually it is a bird! It's Superhen! Yes, Superhen, the Chicken of Tomorrow! This strange visitor from a distant henhouse..."
