Someone took the humor, honor, and competence of Lionel Hutz, and mixed it with the humor, dialect, and intelligence of Foghorn Leghorn. The result? A Hyper Chicken.
The quote _"hyper chicken from a backwoods asteroid"_ makes me wonder if the idea of the character was partly inspired by Space Quest's side game "Astro Chicken". I'm certain the other inspirations are definitely of Foghorn Leghorn and Matlock.
It’s the bit characters that make Futurama. Hedonism Bot, hypnotoad, Lrrrr, clamps, möbius dick, the robot preacher, the robot devil…it’s just such a complete and rich world. All my favorite book/tv/movie franchises have that in common.
Thanks to this video, whenever I’m with friends and need to express an unpopular or more conservative opinion I always have to preface it with “I may be a simple country hyper chicken from a backwoods asteroid…”
The thing I find funny about the scene where Bender and Fry are on trial for aiding Roberto during his bank robbery, Roberto himself is in the gallery. He may be crazy, but you'd think he's not stupid enough to show up to the trial when Bender and Fry could easily implicate him as their partner, plus he shows up in the security footage.
1:44 - 1:55 Discredit of a witness. Not the dumbest strategy to exist. 2:42 - 2:47 Not gonna lie, i’d love to hear LegalEagle’s thoughts, on that bit. 0:24 1:18 2:56 3:12 4:05
Still a better lawyer than amber turds lawyers Now pramela I work with chickens and they really do behave like this, the rooster lunge at you scratch around like he does, nibble themselves randomly and if you put a chickens head under it’s wing it will go to sleep He’s my favourite character
How the fuck is this show not on anymore but Family Guy is still pumping out utter shite weekly. It’s baffling. Futurama was hilarious. At least Rick and Morty kinda picked up the torch in that area.
It's the same reason why Fox continues to bring back the increasingly rotten corpse of The Simpsons. Despite the Simpsons' massive success, you'd think Fox would support another Matt Groening TV show. However fox was less supportive than a collapsing building. They never wanted futurama to succeed; constantly moving time slots, aired episodes out of order. It's a damn shame, in my mind Futurama is superior to both Simpsons and family guy combined.
"On what grounds do you carry the motion for insanity" "They decided to hire me." "Insanity plea accepted"
That should have been said during the Amber Turd trial
That was my favorite part 😂
What a stupid fucking idea for a character.
I love him.
They made a whole character just to make dumbass chicken jokes, it’s awesome
Well, the joke is, what if foghorn leghorn was also Clarence darrow. It's actually kinda clever
Why Clarence Darrow?

@@mortson978 that makes sense then! Thanks for the explanation - I'm from the UK and I don't believe many people know him here
“It strikes me as a extra risky strategy.”
“Did you say extra crispy recipe?”
“You know I didn’t.”
🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣
"Your honor, I move that I be disbarred for introducing this evidence against my own clients". At least he knows he is a shitty lawyer lol
Sums up the Prosecutor on the Kyle Rittenhouse case lmao.
friggin' Alex Jones' lawyer 🤣
@Jay Rock AK yeah that part was hilarious 😂
Southern fried Lionel Hutz
Best to know yourself then, I suppose.
"My memory's a little fuzzy, but it went exactly like this"
"I'm sorry. I thought you was corn."
Come on
Easily my favorite clip of the chicken lawyer lol.
One of my favorite lines in all of Futurama, along with "beligerent and numerous" and "schedule conflict"
@@wolvie90 Hmm... it's good, but would I call it my favorite? All I know is my gut says "maybe".
@@FEARSWTOR your neutrality sickens me
“Quit badgering the witness”
“BADGER, WHERE?
Gets me every time 😂
1:59 & 2:00 - You can thank me now!
I thought a fox would scare a chicken more.
“I declare y’all are in a 12 piece bucket of trouble” my favorite hyperchicken quote 😂😂😂
2:15 “I’d have done better but it’s plum hard pleading a case while awaiting trial for that uh incompetence”
Most underrated character on the show by far
Facts
Nah. Hypnotoad is the most underrated.
All hail the Hypnotoad!
Nah, it's gotta be HedonismboALLHAILTHEHYPNOTOAD!!!
I love the judge tho
Chickens are funny XD BAWK!
I love how the judge just deferred to don bot to make the decision 😂
Of course he did not want what happened to the previous judge to befall him.
“Free corn? Well that’ll suite me just fine.”

"I know when we are finger-licked. What do you say, shall we plead insanity?"
The fact that you're a bad enough lawyer that you can get your clients off for insanity by hiring you makes you a great lawyer
3:04, that "Because" fucking killed me

If Saul Goodman can get his own show, so should this guy!
This was my favourite scene from Joker: Folie à Deux
"Daddy done good, eh!?"
I love this character so, so much! And they used him JUST the right amount, they never overdid it!
3:06 imprinted on me as a kid for whatever reason. Still gets me.
I think about “I’m sorry, I though you was corn” all the time.
The prosecution roosts.
*BUCOACK!!!!*

1:20 Alex Jones' lawyers in the summer of 2022
“And you didn’t say what I paid you to how can any of us trust you?” He’s got a point
How is Futurama’s version of Lionel Hutz not so much more popular than it is?
Matt Groening HATED him with a passion.
@@MecTecher I mean among fans.
@@MecTecher I read Matt Groening hated drawing him, but I didn't know he actually hated the character
@@lanceuppercut_ No he actually does hate the character, he says it in one of the commentaries.
This is literally the best show ever
"Im just a simple country lawyer" lol
"The prosecution roosts."
I don't care what crimes I may or may not have committed, but I'll have good old Hyper Chicken represent me just so I can have a laugh at my trial.
If Foghorn Leghorn was a lawyer
Thanks to this video, whenever I’m with friends and need to express an unpopular or more conservative opinion I always have to preface it with “I may be a simple country hyper chicken from a backwoods asteroid…”
1:33 Best line EVER
"A few months in an insane asylum? I could do that standing on my head"
"If you start now, it might help our case"
😁😃😄😂😂😂
Definitely superior to the Giant Chicken from Family Guy
It's a completely different character. Why do idiots always needlessly compare shit to family guy?
@@whyequalswhat this comment is way better than family guy
I've left skid marks in the toilet that are funnier than the funniest Family Guy episodes
@@whyequalswhat
Because it's an easy target, on the grounds that Family Guy is utter crap.
@@Whiteboykun LOL
So this is where Daniel Craig got his inspiration for his character in Knives Out…
Imagine if in the Hulu continuation its revealed that Hyperchicken was appointed to the supreme court of Earth
i dont know why, just the fact that a grown man making chicken noises just fucks me up
He's more of a grown chicken making man noises.
I understand he will be defending the my pillow guy in his upcoming defamation trial.
Foghorn Leghorn's Alien Cousin 😂
I kept thinking of the Hyper Chicken when I watched Daniel Craig in Knives Out and Glass Onion 😂
Why the Daniel Craig reference? Was there a hyperchicken there?
Taint no need to fear me........ BAAAAAACAWWWWWWW!!
I'm sorry I though you were corn.
Did you say extra crispy recipe?
You know I didn’t
😂😂
God damn, I love this show so much.
"I'm sorry I thought you was corn" is allways funny.
Not gonna lie, the Hyper chicken's Hillbilly accent really is too funny. :)
"Did you know you have rights?"
The thing I find funny about the scene where Bender and Fry are on trial for aiding Roberto during his bank robbery, Roberto himself is in the gallery. He may be crazy, but you'd think he's not stupid enough to show up to the trial when Bender and Fry could easily implicate him as their partner, plus he shows up in the security footage.
0:52 that was a great transition
i almost forgot about the nature episode until this comp
1:44 - 1:55 Discredit of a witness. Not the dumbest strategy to exist.
2:42 - 2:47 Not gonna lie, i’d love to hear LegalEagle’s thoughts, on that bit.
0:24
1:18
2:56
3:12
4:05
how was room possible with the chicken in jail??Bender is in a corner with the tv behind him then suddenly next shot shows a door???
Holy shit, never noticed that! Good eye.
They didn't entirely think these gags through.
Maybe it's outside so people don't mess with them, or that there's another cell to the left, so two people can watch TV while in prison
You ever heard of camera angles?
Boy, I sure hope somebody got fired for that blunder.
I know that he is one of Matt Groening's most hated characters, but for a minor character, he can be quite funny.
1:57 best scene in Futurama history
No.
I dunno. Lots of good scenes.
I was hatched ready.... 😂😂😂
is so funny how light and green he got over the years
"Now I'm just a simple hyper chicken from a backwoods astroid"
All of the men in my family (and some of the women) sound like this, dialogue and all. 🤣
"That is something we cannot doodle-do"
“As the surveillance camera for that bank what all the judge was a jawing about, could yall tell us what you seen the day of the crime?”
To be fair, he was very competent in arguing against Zoidberg's eating the flag and for Bender's lack of free will.
Chicken Laywer could do a better job than Amber Heards lawyer
Hilarious character 😂
Your Honor that's something I can not da doodle do🤣😂
I'm going to allow this.
Daddy done good
Hyper chicken using the free will argument actually being smart?
Still a better lawyer than Rudy Giuliani…
I’m convinced Daniel Craig used this chicken as a reference for Benoit Blanc.
This guy is a real dude. Theres a video with biden on campain finance reform in 1974. Second guy
Honestly this is more like a Super Mega Chicken
They must have loved law and order svu he sounds just like one of the defense lawyers
Still a better lawyer than amber turds lawyers
Now pramela
I work with chickens and they really do behave like this, the rooster lunge at you scratch around like he does, nibble themselves randomly and if you put a chickens head under it’s wing it will go to sleep
He’s my favourite character
Wow they ended up in court a lot
Beccaaauuusseeee 😂
I heard the other writers wanted to name him Mattcluck but Matt Groening vetoed it.
2:56 Free corn well that will suit me just fine
BBAAAAAACCcWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!
Welcome to Sunnyside folks
How, I say I say how
I always thought hes partially based on the lawyer from My Cousin Vinny
Was the HyperChicken the only character to appear in his usual form in the episode where they all were fish?
Well... he was drawn more as a heron in that episode.
Adicous finch😂
I always thought he said "I'm sorry I thought you was cool" and found that so much funnier
Don't put this guy and Lionel Hutz in the same room
It sounds like Charlie whe hes a "oil tycoon" lol
So incompetent that he got locked up😅
Cannot a doodle do.....
Badger where ??? Lmao
Daddy done good huh
Ok but he is quite a interesting chicken tho bruh
FREE CORN!!!
Foghorn leghorn's brother
Canonically Matt's least favorite character
Birdly's Granpa?
